The Cursed Prince's Strange Bride-Chapter 297 Aftermath

Alvin and Harvey looked at each other before looking back at the group who were quietly seated on the front porch of the inn in confusion.

They all looked like a complete mess. Their clothes, faces, and even their hair had different kinds of food debris. The most surprising part about it all was that Harold wasn't spared from it.

Vegetables were hanging loosely on top of his straw hat, and it seemed like the side of his face was smeared with tomatoes. It seemed like he was trying to suppress his anger with his eyes closed.

Alvin looked around the inn, which was empty except for the group. Even the innkeeper could not be found anywhere. What the hell happened here? Did a storm happen that he wasn't aware of?

"Okay... is anyone going to explain what happened here?" Harvey asked, getting their attention. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

They looked in their direction with no one saying anything before they looked at each other. Harold's annoyed outburst had shut them all up and sent the men fleeing when they realized whose pheromones it was.

Susan made a deliberate effort to ignore Alvin. She wasn't sure of the details of all that had happened between them, but she just wished she could disappear.

It had happened that Harold had asked them all to shut up, and one of the men had challenged him, asking who he was to talk to elders rudely. He had even warned Harold to stop glaring at him and asked if he thought he was the infamous Alvin just because he was tall.

Remembering everything now, they had to confess that it was funny. Of course, he wasn't the infamous Alvin. He was Prince Harold!

The first person who started to chuckle was Alicia, as she looked at everyone who looked nothing like their graceful selves when they were in the palace.

Susan joined, and Luciana could not help but burst into laughter. Paulina, who hadn't escaped from it either, looked at Williams' unusual appearance and began to laugh too.

Williams had tried to step in as a peacemaker, but when he had an almost empty porridge bowl thrown at him with some actually touching his face, he actively joined in throwing whatever he could find at the men angrily.

When Williams saw Paulina laughing, he also could not stop himself. Paulina had tried to save as much food as she could so they wouldn't waste it, and that had made her a good target from both sides since she had been in the middle.

Lance, on the other hand, could not hide his disgust at the filth all over him. He had been yelling that his clothes were expensive before he remembered he was wearing rags, so he relaxed, but the peasants' food that was all over him made him want to throw up.

"Is it funny?" Harold asked in a dark voice as he opened his eyes to glare at them, and immediately, they all shut their mouths apart from Alicia, who continued to giggle.

'IT'S FUNNY!' His wolf said, and he could hear the annoying animal laughing in his head. He had almost been tempted to join them to throw food about, and he knew for sure that that wasn't him. It was his stupid wolf. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

"If you loosen up a bit and think about it, it's funny," Alicia said as she leaned against Harold and pushed him playfully.

He eyed her in displeasure, but she grinned at him.

"You have something on your face," Alicia said with a giggle as she brushed the stain from his cheeks while he pushed her hand away grumpily and cleaned it himself, frowning even more when he saw the oily stain on his hand.

"That was fun," Alicia said, and while Susan and Luciana silently agreed with her, Paulina was undecided, and neither Harold, Lance, nor Williams agreed.

"It's good that you spoke up! These men need to learn that sometimes infertility should not only be blamed on the woman but..."

"Princess," Harold called in a warning tone, and Alicia rolled her eyes.

"Fine. I won't say another word," she said as she made a zipping gesture on her lips and Harold shifted his gaze to Harvey and Alvin, who were still staring at them in confusion.

With his gaze, Harold silently inquired about the errand they had run, and Alvin gave him a slight nod.

"There is a river nearby. You all need to clean up." Harvey suggested, and that was how they all found themselves in the river a few minutes later.

Alvin handed the bag he had been holding to a confused Paulina, who took it from him. When she looked into the bag, she realized it contained new sets of the same kind of clothes for them.

Alvin doubted that these spoiled ladies would be willing to wear one outfit for 2 days considering how they usually dress up 3 times a day.

Susan, who was still avoiding Alvin, was the first to get to the water and, after taking off her shoes, she dipped a toe in the water but immediately recoiled.

"It's cold!" She cried out.

No matter how warm the weather was, she always bathed in warm water, and so did the others. So this was new to them.

"I can't bathe with cold water." Lance complained, making all eyes move from Susan to him.

"Shouldn't the innkeeper provide something warm? What if I fall sick? Who is going to take responsibility for my health?" He complained, making the others roll their eyes.

"But the water isn't that cold. Come and check it out." Susan said to Lance, making his eyes light up at how she was intentionally indulging him and even smiling at him.

He moved closer beside her and took off one shoe. When he dipped his leg in the water, he flinched and was about to step out when Susan pushed him with all her might and he fell into the water with a loud splatter.

He yelled and cussed loudly while the others laughed heartily, especially Susan, who was giving him a smug look.

"I'm sure the kingdom is going to be in ruins now that you are cold." Susan mocked Lance, who was glaring at her.
