Matthew looked at Lucy with amusement while he tacitly agreed to her statement and decided not to expose her at that moment. Although he was the one who washed the handkerchief, how was Cillian going to know that?

Dumbfounded, Cillian took the handkerchief from Lucy's hands. He looked at the handkerchief that had shrunk to almost half its size and brushed it off. "It's okay. It's just a handkerchief."
