Chapter 28
My heart was still pounding from that confrontation. I’d never done anything like that before, but the thought of Mr. Stuart trying to make Hyde look like a fool…Because I had no doubt he’d snicker and sneer behind Hyde’s back and tell everyone those wines were his choice.
I stopped at Rosalinda’s Trunk. Mr. Sanderson gave me a weak smile. “Mr. Llewellyn, it’s all ready, and if I may say so, I think you’ll be very pleased with it.”
I examined it carefully, making sure the spelling was correct. “This is perfect. Thank you very much.” I handed it back to him. He polished it with a royal blue cloth, placed it in a slender box, and returned it to me.
I slid the box into the breast pocket of Granddad’s jacket.
“Thank you again. Have a good day.”
“Oh…er…you, too, Mr. Llewellyn.”
