[That's his story and he's sticking to it. He takes a moment to sip his drink, as if to wash away that feeling, then lets out a breath of his own. With a tone that's somewhat lighter, like he'd prefer to move on from that nastiness, himself:]

I'm glad to hear it didn't bother you, but I still feel like I owe you a favor of some sort, at least.
