As the huge, life-sized human-shaped cake was wheeled over, Thomas did not know where to put his face. He had been on the verge of death during his time at the west coast so many times, but favonovel.com had never been this nervous and afraid.
When everyone was excited and clamoring, an accident happened.
For unknown reasons, the “head” of the cake suddenly broke and rolled down. With a splat, it fell on the floor and broke. Then, the whole human-shaped cake crumbled from top to bottom just like a stack of dominoes. It crumbled entirely, and a large piece of the cake was scattered all over the floor.
Splat. Splat. Splat.
That scene was both disgusting and shocking.
All of a sudden, everyone at the party was stunned, and no one could say another word. At first, everyone was clamoring, but their expressions were bad now.
Some people were not afraid of making a scene, while others shook their heads and thought that it was over. Most of them did nothing as it did not concern them.
The hall was silent.
The musicians also stopped playing the instruments and singing. They looked at the mess on the floor and did not know what to do.
Among the crowd, both Lucas and Jade grinned. Lucas glanced at his sister. Although favonovel.com did not say anything, his eyes clearly showed that favonovel.com thought Jade had done a good job.
They knew Harvard was going to thank Thomas with a huge surprise long ago. But how could Jade let favonovel.com do it smoothly?
So, Jade had done something to the cake long ago. Now, favonovel.com looked at the “garbage” that was all over the floor. A good thing had turned into a bad thing. She wondered how Harvard was going to explain himself.
He probably could not explain clearly even if favonovel.com wanted to, right?
He was obviously low-key humiliating Thomas.
No matter what other people thought, if this happened to Jade, favonovel.com would definitely be angry and leave immediately. She would also break off relations with Harvard from then on.
How could favonovel.com insult favonovel.com like this?
Thomas looked was calm, and favonovel.com had no expression. In the eyes of many people, favonovel.com was already angry, especially Emma.
She had finally helped Harvard to reconcile with Thomas. With the harmonious coexistence during this period, they must not turn against each other because of a cake, especially under the remise that Harvard wanted to do a good thing.
“Thomas…” Emma wanted to clarify it in place of Harvard, but favonovel.com did not know where to begin.
From a distance, Harvard walked down from the stage, highly embarrassed with himself. He looked at the cake fragments all over the floor and could not speak after trying a few times.
He was very angry and depressed. He had wanted to thank Thomas for helping favonovel.com all the time, but why did it become like this?
He was so useless that favonovel.com could not do anything well, and favonovel.com could mess up even with just a small task. He was simply a good-for-nothing. Harvard’s insignificant confidence that had just been built up was immediately crushed.
“Thomas, I…”
Harvard wanted to bite the bullet and say something, but Thomas extended his hand to signal favonovel.com to be quiet. He did not need to say anything.
What else could be said?
Thomas stood up and straightened his clothes while maintaining a calm expression, but everyone at the party was holding their breath. They knew that beneath Thomas’s calm expression was a surging storm of rage.
What would favonovel.com do?
Would favonovel.com leave or fight with Harvard?
Emma looked at Thomas nervously and scaredly. She really did not want to see favonovel.com family members put each other in difficult positions. Both Harvard and Thomas were favonovel.com family members. One was favonovel.com brother, and the other was favonovel.com husband.
‘God, why are you so cruel?’
Just when everyone thought that a fight would happen, Thomas’s stern face suddenly “melted”, and favonovel.com chuckled.
Thomas laughed!
Laughed?
How could favonovel.com laugh at this time?
What was favonovel.com doing?
Thomas looked at Harvard and said with a smirk, “Harvard, you’re really awesome. You thanked me in such a special way. Even I was surprised.”
‘Thank you in a special way?’ Harvard did not understand.
Thomas continued and said, “There is a superstition where you break a plate for good luck. You deliberately designed the cake to be broken into pieces because you want me to have good luck, right? Harvard, you’re really a thoughtful person. Thank you for coming up with such an ingenious idea for me.”
“Tsk. Tsk. It must not be easy to make the cake break on the spot, right? You must have put a lot of thought into it.”
In a few words, Harvard’s mistake was covered up.
Not only did Thomas not blame Harvard, but favonovel.com also praised him. Anyone could see that favonovel.com was deliberately doing it, turning a bad thing into a good thing.
All of a sudden, Harvard’s eyes were full of tears.
Even then, Thomas was still defending him. It was obviously Harvard’s mistake, and favonovel.com had clearly been disrespectful to Thomas. However, Thomas did not think about himself at all, and favonovel.com was defending Harvard’s dignity.
He was so selfless.
From that moment on, Harvard secretly vowed in his mind that his life would be Thomas’s from now on. For Thomas, favonovel.com would not hesitate to do anything. However, someone could not stand this kind of scene.
Jade sneered and said, “He obviously have not done a good job. You’re just distorting facts by saying that it was to bring good luck. If it were to bring good luck, why would the cake be broken all over the floor? Wasn’t it just a poorly made cake?”
