Chapter 551 Draw A Picture Book (Part One)
Rufus had a heavy fall. After getting up slowly, he scratched the door and wanted to continue his chat
with Harper. However, to his surprise, the door opened as soon as he put his hand on it. The ensuing
moment, he was kicked out by Matthew and rolled down from the second floor the first floor.
"Get away from her!" Matthew warned.
The door was mmed again with a bang. Rufus felt as if sparks flew before his eyes before he could
finallye into his senses. He felt resentful and angry and was in a mood to really fight it out with
Matthew, though he knew he wasn''t a match for him and would just be kicked down once again. Finally,
heid on his stomach on the floor. If he were to offend Matthew again, he would never let him see
Harper, and that would be a great loss for him.
Inside the room, Matthew folded his arms and looked at the smiling Harper. "Hope you had a good chat
with him?"

"No. Darling, the posture you threw him out was so handsome that I couldn''t stopughing," Harper
immediately ttered. "I feel so lucky that you are back. I''m totally fed up with that guy. He is as
talkative as a sparrow. But since he is your good friend, I can''t drive him out. Thanks for your help, and
now the peace is restored."
Matthew''s face softened. Harper quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to him. "You must be tired.
Have a cup of hot tea. It will warm you up."
"Alright." Matthew looked calm. Harper made him sit down and kneaded his shoulders for him. "Darling,
you''ve been a great help. Among the embroidery girls you recruited for me this time, many are greatly
talented. I nned to finish the task in half a month, but now, it seems that I can make it in less than
ten days. Thank you so much."
"Well, as long as you''re happy, I''m happy too," Matthew said as a faint smile appeared on his face. If he
had a tail, his tail would have been wagging now. Harper''s words worked well. In an instant, his
adrenaline rush curtailed and gave way to the feel-good dopamine.
"Of course, I feel so satisfied. I am not just teaching the embroidery girls these days, but I have also
drawn a picture book using Pearce and his wife as the models. Then, I''m nning to make ready-made
garments ording to the picture book. They will be sold in the first season after the opening
celebration. Would you like to have a look?" Harper asked with excitement. She was so happy as if she
was going to show him her treasure troves.
Matthew didn''t understand what Harper said. ''Using Pearce and his wife as models? What kind of
model?'' But when he saw Harper was happy, he didn''t want to lose his face by asking such a silly
question. So, he put on airs and said, "Okay, let me have a look."
Harper soon showed him the picture book, which she had drawn in her spare time. The more he looked
at it, the more astonished he became. He pointed at the man in the picture book and asked, "Are you
sure the man you have drawn is Pearce?"
"Of course!"
"Pearce is a fat man with less than 1.7 meters of height. Are you sure he is this handsome man you
have drawn in this picture book?" Matthew''s expression seemed like Harper was trying to fool him, as if
he didn''t know what Pearce looked like.
Harper red at him. "Don''t you know that your wife has the ability to turn rotten things into magic?"
"Oh, does his wife know that you have created a handsome Pearce?" Harper felt that something wasn''t
right with Matthew''s words.
She then asked in a low voice, "Matthew, why do you sound a bit sore?"
"I''m not happy because you drew another man!" Matthew answered immediately. "I''m not going to
forgive you unless you draw a picture book for me as well."
"Draw you?" Harper asked as a hint of interest suddenly shed her eyes. She always liked ying
tricks on others. But, aftering here, she had been very cautious in her every word and action, as
she had a fear of losing her life at any moment. She was someone who used to be very free and
unrestrained, but on the contrary, her brother was a dull person. In order to amuse him, she had always
yed a lot of tricks on him. Now, after seeing that Matthew had asked her to draw him, a small trick
came into her mind at once.
"What? Can''t you do that?" Matthew asked in a raised tone.
"Of course, I can. But, I''m just afraid that you might be unhappy." She gazed calmly into his eyes, not
willing to let her husband know that she was nning to y a trick on him.
"As long as the one you draw is me, I''ll be happy," Matthew said proudly.
"Are you sure you''ll be happy with whatever I draw?" Harper confirmed once again.
"Yes, I am pretty sure."
That was exactly what she wanted to hear. She sat down in front of the desk, picked up a charcoal
pencil, and started to draw something quickly. Matthew didn''t feel worried. He sat aside quietly and
waited. He thought, ''If Harper depicts me as someone uglier than Pearce, I will beat Pearce badly and
burn the picture book. If I am satisfied with what she draws, I will forgive him.''
About an hourter, Harper drew dozens of sketches. Matthew tried to take a nce at the sketches.
Although he couldn''t see them clearly, he was a little worried about the quality of her sketches. As she
drew in a high speed, he thought it was less likely for her to draw him well.
Even though she saw her husband peeping in, she was in no hurry to finish. She kept on drawing
carefully at her own speed. After making around twenty sketches, she put down her pencil, sorted out
the papers and approached Matthew.
"Matthew, I have finished drawing."
Matthew stretched out his hand and said, "Let me have a look."
He doubted that Harper was being perfunctory to him. In less than two hours, shepleted twenty
sketches. He didn''t believe she had drawn carefully!
She hesitated and said, "Don''t get angry after seeing the pictures. I hope you''d remember your words.
You promised that you''ll be happy with whatever I have drawn."
