The Swordswoman’s Revenge Story after Rebirth

Chapter 326 Oliver’s Dance

Finished

As soon as Esme gave the signal, Noelle, Britney, Hattie Hazel, and the others rushed to distribute gifts. She had anticipated that the wedding–night revelry would stir up the enthusiasm of the soldiers, so she had prepared presents in advance.

Anthony grinned and declared, “Alright then, for Esme sake, we won’t go too overboard tonight–just two hours of fun! Let’s go!”

“Two hours? Oh no, Anthony, that’s way too much!” Esme protested, but before she could say more, the crowd had already pushed her outside.

A chorus of voices erupted. “Come on, jump! Watch that threshold carefully!”

Oliver chuckled, adjusting his grip as Isolde clung to his back. She had no choice–if she didn’t hold on tight, she’d slip off mid–jump. But if she held on too tightly, she’d end up choking him.

Lucas raised his voice. “The rules are simple! If the bride slips off, the groom drinks. If the groom falls, the groom drinks again!”

Laughter exploded through the room. Hattie scoffed, “That’s not fair! Either way, Oliver’s the one drinking!”

“Hattie, do you really have the heart to make Isolde drink?”

“Well, I feel bad for Oliver too!” Hattie protested.

“No helping it,” Anthony clapped his hands. “Oliver, your only choice is to jump properly.”

With no way out, Oliver turned his head slightly. “Hold on tight. I’m jumping.”

“Alright.” Isolde’s eyes sparkled with excitement. As exhausting as the ordeal was, the sheer liveliness of it all made everything feel so real.

Oliver took a step forward–and Isolde nearly slid off. But with quick reflexes, she hooked her legs around his thighs and scrambled back up, pressing herself flush against his back. Oliver froze, his face turning red.

“Oliver’s blushing!” someone hollered.
