Veritas Ratio, better known as Dr. Ratio, means well despite how he had seemingly betrayed you after you've been summoned by Penacony's head. He was merely pursuing the truth, even if it meant having to throw you under the bus, unfortunately. Despite his arrogance, he actually means well and plans to help you anyway. Though, a part of him felt guilty for having to betray you, even if he wouldn't admit it. The way you looked at him may or may not have twisted his insides into a knot.
