The Villain’s Wife Chapter 813 Too Wasteful!
Chapter 813 Too Wasteful!
Of course, Eliza’s nonchalant comment was enough to make Rafa’s face turned red in embarrassment. However, he could not react in front of his mother in law. In the end, Rafa gritted his teeth, in anger and shame because of what happened.
After Lian Shi explained the stone, the topic about the diamond slowly died as Harringfort took the opportunity to talk about business instead. In his mind, he still had the chance to embarrass Zhou Jingren. So, he started talking about things he did on lavish vacations, skiing, skydiving, and his knowledge about his private plane— things that are very specific and Zhou Jingren should not know about.
And he was right. Zhou Jingren indeed does not know how to fix his private plane or how to make a yacht. However, Lily doesn’t know about these things either. In the end, the one who asked questions as the quiet Qin Yuanfeng while Lily and Zhou Jingren started whispering again. This immediately made Harringfort irritated. He was about to open his mouth and call them out for this behaviour. Unfortunately, Qin Yuanfeng was smart enough to ask another question.
In the end, Lily and Zhou Jingrenstarted talking about computations, altitudes, and even velocity. The more Harringfort tried to interrupt the two; the more Qin Yuanfeng asked him questions upon questions. In the end, the two started talking about gravity.
Because of this, Eliza, Lily, and Zhou Jingren started talking about something else. This completely pissed Harringfort off. However, how could he refuse to answer Qin Yuanfeng’s questions? Was he supposed to tell him to stop asking and make it look like he doesn’t know the answer to his questions?
Harringfort would never do something that would ruin his name!
"As I was saying, I was already planning to make another customised plane for myself." He side-eyed Lily and Zhou Jingren. "Of course, I can always find time if one of you here would want me to help them out with their private plane. If you want, I can even give you a tour of the plane and perhaps the yacht."
"So all this time, you were spending your time with your plane?" Lily suddenly chimed in. Her eyebrow lifted, and for some reason, her gaze was full of contempt and other emotions that he doesn’t recognise.
"Yes, I do. I studied— "
"I see." Lily interrupted him. While Lily and Zhou Jingren talked with Eliza, she was also keeping an eye with this Harringfort. "So... " she turned her head towards Eliza. "Planes..." Smiling, Lily added. "Do you want me to buy you your own personal one as a gift?"
Eliza’s jaw dropped before she laughed. "Oh... no. It’s fine. I am not too interested in material stuff. Plus, Levi and I use the country’s plane every time we go to different countries. There is no need for us to buy a new one when we can still rely on our old private plane."
Hearing this, the smile on Harringfort’s lips vanished. One, Lily’s condescending voice was enough to tell him that his words could not impress her. Two, when she asked Eliza about buying a private plane, her goal was simple. She wanted to know if Eliza wanted to learn about planes for him! And three, Eliza’s words about buying a new one when they still have a functioning plane was like telling him that he was too wasteful!
Harringfort had prided himself in reading the meaning behind people’s words! How could he miss the meaning behind Lily and Eliza’s words? He gritted his teeth in silence as he wondered about the things that could impress Lily. Wealth indeed is not one of it.
"I agree." Zhou Jingren decided to add fuel to the fire. "Why waste money in collecting such expensive things? Instead of doing this, Lily and I tend to donate to the people who need help." He gave a jovial smile to Harringfort. "Please... don’t take offence. We are all entitled to spend our own money. It’s just that we chose to spend it differently."
Lily playfully nudged her husband. "Hey�� are you shaming him for the way that he spent his money?" On the outside, Lily’s words sounded like she was defending Harringfort. However, the latter felt something was off. Why would Lily protect him?
And just as he expected, Lily’s next words made him frown. "He loves planes. This just makes me wonder... Your Highness Eliza... since you and His Highness Harringfort had been engaged for a few months now. You must have seen his plane, right? After all... you are his fiance." Lily said, smiling.
Eliza had never been to one of his planes. And this was not the issue. The issue is that Lily blurted this in front of many people just after Harringfort offered Qin Yuanfeng to check his plane! Lily wanted to embarrass him!
But why was she attacking him? Harringfort eyed Zhou Jingren, who was not even looking at him and was not talking to Levi. Was it possible that Lily was only doing this because of Eliza?
"Oh! Wait..." Lily said as she dramatically widened her eyes. "You haven’t seen each other since the engagement party!" Lily said. "My bad. I am so sorry to even ask this question." Her eyes were gentle, voice sympathetic as she stared at Eliza.
Anyone who was watching the scene would immediately think that Eliza talked to Lily about the situation and is hurt about the matter. Surprised, Harringfort could only gulp his non-existent saliva. How could Lily treat him like this when he spent his time trying to impress her with his knowledge? He felt his face reddened, his back damp with sweat that he didn’t have earlier.
