Chapter 232 - Unlucky Smith
"How was the weather?" Klaus asked with a big grin.
"..."
Smith's eyes twitched when he recalled how he got soaked in the rain which for some reason fell only on the area he was standing at. He knew this was the handwork of Grey and his friends, but he didn't know which one, hearing Klaus' question pointed him to the culprit.
'I'll kill this guy.' He thought through gritted teeth.
This was the most humiliated he had ever been, what was worse was that he didn't actually see a horse, so he had to walk all the way from the inn to his father's villa.
"I think it's lovely, don't you think so too?" Grey actually joined in this time.
He sensed the increase in the water elemental particles at the inn when they were just about to enter the carriage, but he didn't know the reason. However, on hearing Klaus' question, it wasn't hard to figure out what happened. Klaus actually created a make-believe rain, how ingenious, and evil!
"Yeah, amazing." Reynolds nodded as well.
The trio continued speaking of how great the weather is, making Smith's expression turn even more sour. He felt like burying the trio alive.
"Why don't we go in?" Richard quickly tried to help him out.
He could sense there was something weird going on, but he didn't know, nor did he care. All he had his eyes on was Alice, that was what he wanted, nothing else mattered.
The group of six slowly walked over to the villa, heading in the direction of the right wing. It took the group over five minutes to walk there. One should remember that when the group previously came here, they used a carriage, and even though the horse was moving slowly, it was still faster than their current pace.
Smith had an awkward expression on his face, normally, it was the duty of a host to pour his guests drink. Yet, Klaus was the one who was doing it.
'First, he acted like he was the owner of the carriage, now this? I can't stand this guy anymore.' Smith was on the verge of exploding.
Richard on the other hand just watched on without showing much interest, other than the first time he was shocked by Klaus being the first to drink, his attention was fully placed on Alice.
Smith reluctantly picked up the silver cup. And just like what Klaus did with everyone else, he wanted to lightly touch his cup with Smith while saying cheers. But just then...
"Cheers." He said but his voice reduced at the end of the word.
The reason for this was because he accidentally hit his cup too hard on Smith's cup, making both cups which were filled with wine to fall on Smith's body. And just when Smith was about to react to the wine falling on his body, the worst happened.
Pu...
Reynolds who just took a mouthful of wine spat it out, spraying the wine straight at Smith's face who was sitting opposite him.
Everyone's mouth opened unconsciously when this happened. It hadn't even been up to two seconds after Klaus 'accidentally' poured some wine on Smith's body, yet Reynolds spat the wine in his mouth into his face. This was the highest level of embarrassment!
"Sorry, it was an accident."
"Sorry, I didn't like the flavor."
Reynolds and Klaus apologized simultaneously.
Bang!
"Enough!" Smith yelled angrily, banging his hand on the table forcefully.
