Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Torturing People to Death Without Compensation (2)

Steve Burton didn’t even wait for Edric Reat to react; he slowly stood up, took two tissues from the table, and handed them to Edric, apologizing, “I’m sorry. I just wanted to put my leg down and accidentally bumped into the table.”

Rusell Henris, who was sitting not far away, took in Steve Burton’s every move. Others might really think it was an accident, but he and Steve had known each other for so many years, and in an instant, he understood that this was anything but an accident; it was clearly done on purpose to create chaos!

“It’s okay.” Edric Reat smiled politely, reached out, and was about to take the tissues from Steve Burton.

However, just as Edric’s fingers were about to touch the tissues, Steve suddenly twisted his hand and threw the two tissues onto the table, saying indifferently, “I’ll wipe the table.”

Rusell Henris saw this scene and lifted his hand to cover the corners of his lips that were curling up; this was not just subtly stirring up chaos, it was a blatant attempt to make a scene!

Edric Reat’s fingers abruptly stopped in mid-air. Even though he had good self-restraint and patience, his expression now showed a hint of embarrassment. He paused for a full minute before reaching out to get his tissues, and wiped his hands and cuffs clean.

Steve Burton saw that the cocktail glass of Ruby Gregory had been touched by Edric Reat, so he pushed it aside with a hint of disgust, and asked someone to bring a new glass over, “Ruby can’t hold her alcohol and has a cold, so she should drink less. However, since we set the rules before playing this game, she has to drink. Otherwise, everyone will say they have a cold later, and this game would be meaningless, right?”

As he spoke, Steve picked up a bottle of 3-proof cocktail and poured a full glass, “Cocktail is also an alcohol, just with a lower alcohol content. This way, we’re not breaking the rules, and it shows our consideration for the sick.”

Steve handed the glass to Ruby Gregory and added, “It’s really touching that you came to the class reunion despite being sick.”

Ruby Gregory had only casually made up an excuse to avoid singing with Edric Reat, but now that Steve was making a big deal out of it, she felt embarrassed. The wine she was originally supposed to drink had turned into a 3-proof cocktail, making it seem like she sacrificed a lot to not spoil everyone’s fun.

Ruby Gregory’s face turned slightly red, and she felt too embarrassed to look at her old classmates around her. She just reached out and took the 3-proof cocktail that Steve had poured for her.

Just as Ruby Gregory was about to take a sip, Steve suddenly reached out his hand, “Ruby is my fiancée, and as her future husband, it’s my duty to drink this glass of wine for her.”

Having said that, Steve took the 3-proof cocktail from Ruby’s hand and chugged it down in one gulp. Then, without any embarrassment or shame, he continued to pour himself another glass of 3-proof cocktail.

Steve put down the empty glass and looked at Edric Reat, who was standing in front of him, “Now that Ruby has finished her drink, it’s Mr. Reat’s turn.”

“To make up for accidentally dirtying Mr. Reat’s sleeve earlier, I’ll pour the three glasses of wine he’s supposed to drink. Since Ruby just drank a 3-proof cocktail in this round and she is Mr. Reat’s partner, shouldn’t Mr. Reat be a gentleman and drink something with a slightly higher alcohol content?”
