Chapter 575 Wash Him Clean (Part One)
Reading the message Howard had sent, Harper frowned slightly and said, "I didn''t expect Walden to be
so cold-blooded too."
"All members of the royal family are heartless," Matthew said while reviewing the official documents.
Felix and he were both heartless men after all. The only difference between the two of them was that
he prioritized his principles, while Felix prioritized his interests.
"Nonsense, you are not at all like them," Harper said, crumpling up the slip of paper in her hand.
"Rumor has it that the Longevity Pill can prolong a human''s life. Is there really such a miraculous
medicine anywhere in the world?"
"With everyone talking about it now, I think there is indeed such a medicine, but we don''t know whether
it''s as effective as it''s rumored to be," Matthew said, extending his arm to grab her waist and make her
sit on hisp. "After all, no one has ever eaten it before."
"Would you like some?" Harper asked, pinching his chin yfully. "Look at me, Matthew. Do you want
it?"
Looking at her peacefully, Matthew asked, "Want what?"
"The pill," Harper said quickly.
"Do I want it..." Matthew repeated her question, emphasizing every word. There was a glint rising in his
eyes, which she still hadn''t noticed.
She nodded and echoed, "Yeah, do you want it... Ah!"
Matthew pinched her waist. Harper screamed in shock and red at him. "What do you think you''re
doing?"
A handsome and devilish smile crept up at the corners of Matthew''s mouth. "Have I misunderstood
you? Didn''t you say you wanted it?"

"I mean the pill..." Noticing the growing passion in Matthew''s eyes, Harper tried to remember their
conversation. In a sh, she realized that her husband misconstrued her words intentionally. She
managed to keep herposure, but her earlobes turned red. "You are not being serious!"
With smiling eyes, Matthew said, "I''m perfectly serious. I simply answered your question. I want it.
What, don''t you want it now?"
Matthew looked as hard and cold as ice, but actually he was an expert at flirting with her. Harper was
no match for him in that aspect. She could make fun of him before, but nowadays, when she spoke any
word with even any vague sexual suggestiveness, she would be the one to admit defeat in the end.
"I''m trying to talk serious business with you," Harperined. She pushed Matthew''s chest to keep
him at a distance from her.
Matthew put more strength into his grip, pressing her against his chest. "Let''s take care of our own
needs first before we discuss business."
"Let''s get down to business first," Harper said anxiously. She couldn''t understand why he was
bing more and more eager for sex. Even her most innocent and unremarkable words were
enough to arouse his passion to make love with her straightaway.
Matthew adjusted her posture on hisp, so that she faced him, with her legs separated on both sides
of his own legs. He slid his fingers adroitly into her clothes. There was a charcoal fire burning in the
room, so the couple were already thinly dressed, which facilitated Matthew''s advances.
"What... You..." Harper was so disoriented that she couldn''t speak coherently.
"Take it easy, honey. We can still talk while doing it," Matthew said. He took great pleasure in seeing
Harper''s simultaneous shyness and annoyance. In the end, her protests turned into moans of pleasure.
After the sex, both of them were drenched in sweat. Harpery weakly in Matthew''s arms. While
caressing her back with his hand slowly, Matthew used his other hand to turn over official documents.
Seeing Harper''s clothes were about to slide down, he skillfully pulled her clothes back up. She didn''t
even want to move at all. She only wanted to sleep at the moment.
But her drowsy and disheveled look only triggered Matthew''s lust again, until he couldn''t resist it. He
tossed aside the brush pen in his hand and took her into the bedroom, and they repeated the act once
again. Soon afterward he would be very busy, and then he might not have much time to be with her.
ordingly, he didn''t want to waste any time when he was with her.
In the twinkling of an eye, the day of the emperor''s birthday arrived. Everyone had been busy preparing
for it, and Harper hadn''t seen Matthew with her own eyes for a few days. She would fall asleep before
he came home, and wake up after he went out. She had a mixed feeling as she touched the cold pillow
by her side.
"Are you up yet, Your Highness?" Nina''s voice rang out outside the room.
Harper sat up, took up the clothes that were on the folding screen and put them on slowly. Since her
marriage to Matthew, she had no need for the maids to dress her, because he would do it for her. Now
that he wasn''t around, she wasn''tfortable being attended on by others, even though Nina and
Anabel had worked as her personal maids for many years.
It was not until she was fully dressed that she called Nina in. Nina brought a basin of warm water for
Harper to wash her face. "Your Highness, His Highness said that you should go to the Imperial Pce
early today."
Harper nodded. Today was the birthday of the emperor. As the wife of a prince, she had to go to the
pce early in the morning in order to celebrate the emperor''s birthday. Moreover, every woman with a
title had to pay a visit to the empress to pay her respects to her, and Harper was no exception.
"It''s still early. It''s notte to go to the Imperial Pce after breakfast." A faint smile crept up at the
corners of Harper''s mouth. She wondered what the empress would do at the birthday party. She
suddenly felt eager to see the oue.
"Is Fred here?"
"Your Highness, he has been standing guard outside."
"Let him in." Harper''s eyes flickered with anticipation. She had to be on alert in this visit to the Imperial
Pce today.
