Clarissa fidgeted in her seat and shifted away from him. She reached up to scratch her ears in an attempt to hide the fact that she was blushing. It was an adorable sight.

“Umm, a little. But I’m fine.”

Clarissa was afraid he’d dig out her embarrassing secret, so she changed the topic instantly. “Uncle Matthew, where are we going?”

Matthew glanced at her pinkish cheeks and ears before straightening his back.

“My friend’s new manor in the countryside.”
