Chapter 238 Do Your Lips Swell Because of a Male Mosquito Bite?
The departure of Charles and Martina didn't have much influence on the banquet
Other people sitting at the same table with them even let out a sigh of relief.
They were really afraid that they would have a hard time when those people of high status quarreled
They also admired Harrison's ability.
It was a very trivial thing that might happen around people every day, but Harrison took advantage of it, making Martina lose face and at the same time getting something on Martina. Martina might have to avoid offending Harrison in the future!
After all, she even wouldn't dare to quarrel with Harrison anymore!
Right at that moment, Manuel and Susan came over to toast.
Manuel was sitting in a wheelchair while Susan stood erect.
Susan didn't bend down a little because of Manuel's height at all.
Manuel didn't mind it.
He tried his best to raise his glass high so that he could clinked his glass against others'.
"Congratulations." Harrison clinked her glass against Manuel's.
The person beside her was unhappy.
So he deliberately clinked his glass against Manuel's, too.
Obviously, he used too much strength.
The glasses made a loud sound, and almost broke.
Manuel was innocent.
He did not do anything.
But he had to suffer this.
People sitting at this table all congratulated Manuel and Susan and drank with them.
"Where's Martina?" Susan frowned, wondering why Martina was not here!
The seating arrangement of this table was made by her.
Her intention was to let Charles, Harrison, and Oscar have a meal at the same table, so that Charles would explode with rage. Who let him be so stupid and cheat on Harrison?
She must let him know how happy Harrison was after marrying Oscar.
However, where were they?!
Charles was not there, either.
Her effort was wasted.
"They've left." Harrison directly said.
"They've left? Manuel is still here, but she has left?! Sometimes Susan did shoot from the hip.
But she didn't mean to say this.
Didn't she see them kissing in Manuel's lounge just now?
Based on her understanding of Martina, she believed that Martina would not leave, no matter how miserable she was.
Anyway, the style of Martina was that if she was having a hard time, she would make the whole world suffer.
Susan had been wondering what crazy things Martina would do.
If Martina really tried to fake the groom away with her, Susan would definitely let Manuel go with Martina.
When she pictured that scene, Susan was even very pleased.
How could she just leave!
Harrison glared at Susan and then took a look at Manuel.
Manuel was smiling slightly.
He was enduring.
He was forcing himself to tolerate, even though Susan went too far.
"Susan." Harrison couldn't stand it anymore and called Susan.
Susan did not know why Harrison tended to stick up for Manuel now.
Weren't they always on the same side?!
Weren't they best friends?
Harrison betrayed her!
The look in Susan's eyes was too obvious. Harrison could know what she was thinking without asking.
"Go to drink with others now. Manuel hasn't fully recovered yet. Finish the ceremony as soon as possible and eat something. Then have a good rest in the afternoon." Harrison urged.
Susan was a little reluctant.
When she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly noticed something.
"Harrison, why are your lips swollen?" Susan stared at Harrison's lips.
Harrison felt embarrassed at once.
She pursed her lips.
Was it so obvious?
Just now, she felt a little painful and burning. But it had been a while.
"Could it be that..." Susan paused a while on purpose, "It's caused by mosquitoes bite?" Harrison couldn't help but chuckle.
She was not sure Susan was giving her an out or was teasing someone on purpose.
Harrison answered, "Yeah, a mosquito with long legs. It's in the garden."
"I guess it's a male one." Susan pretended to be serious, "It must also be a particularly lascivious one...."
Hearing those words, Harrison was so embarrassed that her face turned red.
Oscar, who was beside her, was obviously unhappy.
Susan still wanted to say more.
But her hand was suddenly grabbed tightly by someone.
Susan frowned.
She lowered her head, looking at Manuel who was sitting in the wheelchair and his hand which was grabbing hers.
"We should go now." Manuel held Susan's hand tightly.
Susan unconsciously felt like throwing his hand away.
But there were too many people around and it was improper for her to do so. Therefore, she gritted her teeth and left with Manuel.
There was a person responsible for pushing the wheelchair for Manuel all the way.
They left this table.
Actually, tables were a little far apart.
There were not many tables in the banquet hall, and the banquet hall was very spacious. Therefore, it seemed a little empty. After walking away for a while, Susan threw away Manuel's hand at once. Manuel didn't feel upset at all. He wasn't even embarrassed.
He explained, "Don't offend Oscar."
"Why?" Susan questioned.
"Anyway, don't offend him."
Susan rolled her eyes.
She didn't take his words seriously at all.
The two had to go to every table to toast.
After finishing that, Manuel and Susan also sat down in their seats. Both of them probably didn't feel like eating, so they just grabbed a bite. Anyway, Manuel left the banquet hall soon.
Susan left a little later than he did.
She was also not interested in talking to the guests, so she got up and went straight to her room in the resort to rest.
She followed a working staff and walked into a room.
Immediately, the expression on her face changed.
Did she say she wanted to share a room with Manuel?!
She even turned around and was about to leave at once.
"Susan!" Justine called her in a cold voice.
Susan turned around and looked at Justine.
"Where are you going? This is your room!"
"I won't sleep in the same room with Manuel!"
"Then why do you marry him?"
"You make me do this!" Susan was furious.
Didn't Justine know well why she would marry Manuel?!
"You can resist it. Justine said slowly.
Susan almost jumped in anger.
Hadn't she resisted it?!
Was she able to resist it?!
"If you can't resist it, then accept it."
Error
"Come in and take care of Manuel!"
"Why should I?" Susan was angry.
In her memory, this was the first time she quarreled with Justine in so many years.
When Justine was with her father, Justine would deliberately behave with forbearance.
Now Justine didn't have to please her father anymore, so she showed her true colors, right?!
"Because you've married him! Because you two are husband and wife! Because Manuel is injured all because of you! He even couldn't hold on and collapsed today in this wedding ceremony you want! Can't you see that?!"
Susan bit her lip. Now, she saw that Manuel already collapsed. She didn't know why, but she became less aggressive.
Susan lowered her voice, "He agreed to do that, didn't he?"
"So, did I blame you? I just want you to take care of him. Is there a problem?" Justine asked.
"Aren't you taking care of him?"
"I don't want to do that now."
Susan couldn't think of any words to retort.
Then, Justine really walked past her and left.
The moment Justine closed the door for them, Justine spoke a few words, "Take good care of him, or you'll learn what legendary evil mother-in-law is like!"
But Susan didn't take her threatening words seriously.
