He closed his jacket, buttoning it, and placing his hand coolly in the pocket of the side he was hurt to apply pressure in the most subtle of ways because Owen wasn't wrong. Not that he needed to be told what to do, but again Owen wasn't wrong. And he was doing what the other suggested just as he said it. In sync. He was already counting on the people disappointed about the ruined shirt, but at least for now the suit was salvageable. "It's a scratch, when we get out of her I'll get a band aid and a change of clothes," he said with his surefire way of speaking to minimize is wrong doings, his mistakes to amke it seem like noting truly was bad. Curt was talented, he didn't get this far without being talented. But his biggest talent was his ability to bullshit. He may be no actor, but you didn't need to be to tell a good lie. That took charisma which Curt, despite popular belief by most of his associates, did have.
"Make the rounds, before we leave though. We're in a hurry, not rude." Curt was all about playing the room right. Curt did try to be courteous where he was allowed in this job, perhaps why he kept being sent out. Honestly, Cynthia left it up to guesswork for him since she never seemed happy with his performances, or reports. Well she was happy with his reports just never the true contents because Curt did not lie on them. So she could nitpick. He really didn't do himself any favors. Maybe he should lie in one one day. Maybe this one, she didn't need to know he was stabbed, he was already trying to make it seem smaller than it was.
With his free hand he opened the door for Owen before walking out grabbing a glass of champagne from a serving platter, and held it casually to match his casual attempt at pressure to his wound. He gave an easy smile to those who walked pass. He may not look as put together as Owen, he never did, but if anyone asked he knew the correct lie to tell. An alibi he built for himself before they even left to get the intel. "Outside in ten?" he asked, his lips barely moving as he measured how much time he personally needed inside and to get to their rendezvous.
