Chapter 924 Where’s Charles?

Curtis noticed Toby’s sudden change in expression so he followed Toby’s gaze. Curtis then observed Toby glancing at his own left arm and the former instantly recalled that his wife had mentioned to him previously how the latter had broken his arm while rescuing Sonia.

He had thought that Grace was just joking back then. After all, he couldn’t imagine what sort of danger Sonia could be subjected to for Toby to actually break his arm to rescue her.

However, it seemed right now that Grace was telling the truth.

“Toby, your arm’s not fully recovered yet so give me some of the items and I’ll carry them inside.” As soon as Curtis said that, he reached out and removed the items from Toby’s left arm.

Curtis instantly felt the weight of the presents as soon as he took them from Toby. Surprised, Curtis asked, “What’s inside? It seems quite heavy.”

 

“Little Leaf mentioned that you enjoy occasional drinks and you’re a wine collector. I was in possession of a few great wines so I’ve brought them along with me today.” Toby flexed his left arm as he spoke.

At that point, he was not carrying anything on his left arm so the pain gradually dissipated.

 

Meanwhile, Curtis’s expression brightened upon hearing that he had in his hands some wine. “Oh, did you bring me wine? That’s great. That’s really great.”

Curtis repeated great twice and his expression was joyful as he spoke.

Evidently, Curtis was a wine lover.

As for Toby, he couldn’t help chuckling upon noticing that. “Mr. Lane, I’m glad that you like it.”

“Yes, of course! I love wine,” Curtis replied hastily.

Although he had not seen the wine gifted by Toby, he was quite sure that something from Toby would definitely be of good quality.

Perhaps it was much better than the precious wines in his collection.

At that point, he was quite excited at the thought of it and he became increasingly enthusiastic. He quickly made a welcome gesture at Toby to invite him inside. “Alright, Toby. Let’s quickly head inside. They’ve gone inside for quite some time now so they must be waiting.”
