The revelation gains a skeptical look for the trouble, like he expects there to be something more to it. Some implied kind of bargain, because that's usually the way these things work. You don't get something for nothing.
"I'm guessing so, yeah. But you don't have to pay for those. Ain't your problem."
"It was nothing, really." A pause as he realizes that sort of explanation wouldn't be enough. "The recent church bake sale sold more than anticipated and so I had a little bit extra. If it helps you to feel any better, you can pay me back later."
Oh how easily the lies spawned these days. "Anyway I do feel partly responsible. Misdial or not, I'm still here to help."
