Oliver was aware of this shortcoming of his, which was why whenever he was with Fanny, he never wore his heart on his sleeve. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stop embarrassing himself before her.

What if she didn’t like what she saw of him?

Thus, Oliver wanted to hide his emotions from her.

Yet now, he couldn’t help but expose his true feelings before her.

The moment he sensed his ears turning red, he pulled his hand back in embarrassment and fled to the washroom to hide his anxiety.
