Toby thanked Damian and Eilika repeatedly, bowing to them with genuine gratitude before leaving. Damian had also helped him secure a small job as a carrier in the godown of a large merchant's shop.
It was not an important position, but it was an honest way for Toby to earn a living and, hopefully, take his first step toward escaping the poverty he had endured for years.
"You did the right thing by giving him an opportunity to earn for himself," Eilika said, watching Toby leave. She took the empty bowl that had previously been filled with fruit from Damian and placed it on the tray.
A maid immediately stepped forward to take the tray and carried it toward the kitchen.
Eilika then turned her attention back to Damian. "Now, what are you going to do about Garrett?"
"I'll keep him locked up for a few days," Damian replied calmly.
