Enna Clark didn't know how to respond.
Wyndham Howell saw her embarrassment, raised the corner of his mouth, and chuckled. "This is the first time I've ever confessed my feelings to someone of the opposite sex. I didn't expect to be rejected the first time."
"I'm sorry, I..."
Wyndham's starry eyes curved into a gentle smile. "There's nothing to be sorry about. If rejecting someone you don't like is embarrassing, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for me, who failed in my confession?"
"..."
He took a bag from the car and handed it to Enna. "This is a small gift from Rose and me. We forgot to give it to you when we gave you the fruit."
"This is..." Enna saw the beautiful gift box inside the bag but didn't reach for it.
Wyndham laughed and placed the bag in her arms, calmly saying, "Don't worry; it's just some throat lozenges."
He didn't mention that these lozenges were made by him and Rose Howell in a workshop specializing in handmade candies.
