“Come on, fellas! Keep drinking!”
Monte, Kevin, and the others poured more wine for Larry’s group after they feasted on some of the food. They had already finished one bottle of wine, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary after they drank it. Larry and Blade could finally breathe a sigh of relief, for it seemed that they had been overthinking the situation and were under the false assumption that the Cedar Gang wanted to poison them.
Even though that was the case, they did not dare to be too careless in the event that the Cedar Gang intended to get them drunk before dealing with them. Before long, Monte took out another bottle of wine and poured it for Larry, Blade, and Severin.
After pouring the wine for the three of them, they raised their glasses again to toasted Larry and Blade! The two men had let their guard down and picked up their respective wine glasses to drink the wine. Monte did not mind that Severin had not touched his wine glass yet, since whether he drank or not did not matter much to them since they believed that they could subdue him with novelbin
relative ease.
“Don’t drink that wine,” Severin warned out of the blue just as Larry and Blade were about to drink.
“Why not?” Larry frowned.
Severin smiled faintly. “Because there’s poison in it.”
“P–p–p–poison!” Blade and Larry were both startled and their faces soured.
On one end, Draco Hall’s people immediately stood up and looked warily at the surrounding people. The atmosphere became tense in an instant.
Monte was stunned for a moment but soon laughed out loud. “That’s not funny. Be careful with what comes out of your mouth! How is the wine poisonous when everyone here already drank it? Aren’t we drinking together with you?”
Severin stood up slowly and said with a cold smile, “The wine in your glasses is from the previous bottle, and anything remaining from that bottle doesn’t contain any poison!” Severin paused for a moment and then slowly opened his mouth to say, “But the wine in Hall Master Larry and Blade’s glasses came from a bottle that had just been opened. Indeed, the previous bottle of wine isn’t poisonous, but this new bottle is different! If you think I’m making false accusations, why don’t you exchange glasses with the two of them?”
Monte’s face soured. He deliberately struck up a conversation with Larry and Blade when switching the new bottle of wine because he wanted to distract the other party’s attention. Furthermore, they had drank so much wine that it ought not to arouse any further suspicion in them. To their surprise, however, Severin could tell at a glance that something was gravely wrong with the new bottle.
Larry was just as taken aback, and he thanked his lucky stars that he had gone to look for Severin and brought him along with them to the Cedar Gang’s turf. Had he not done that, both he and Blade would have died there.
“How about it? Care to switch cups with me?” Larry smiled coldly and said to Monte.
“Hmph!” Monte snorted coldly and threw the glass on the ground forcefully.
Within seconds, someone from the Cedar Gang ran to the door and blew on a whistle. “Charge!” A group of people then rushed up and surrounded them.
