Chapter 227 Reached Her Limit and Didn’t Have to Hold It in Any Longer

Matthew grinned, a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes, as if he found his cleverness rewarding. “See? If you had been cooperative earlier, we wouldn’t have gone through all that trouble.”

Milly glanced at the brick he had thrown on the ground and squinted. She felt tempted to pick it up and smash it against his head,

“Get to the point. Why are you here?” She wanted him to speak and leave promptly.

Matthew walked over to the table and retrieved a bag he had brought with him. He handed it to her. This is for you. Put it on so I can see.”

Reluctant. Milly took the bag. She did not expect him to really give her something.

She opened it and discovered a brightly colored robe inside that was almost blinding to look at.

“You’re giving me…a robe?”

Matthew nodded, a touch of pride in his voice. “I bought it on Amazon. The seller said it’s the same style as the one the black bear stole from that monk in that TV show we used to watch. It’s unisex, and I got it in a size that should fit you perfectly

Only an artist would think to buy something like this. He must believe she would be thrilled.

But his anticipation was short–lived. In the next moment, Milly pushed the bag and the robe back into his hands before turning away with a look of disdain. I’m not wearing this. Take it back.”

Matthew’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Why not? It looks great! It’s just like the-

Milly cut him off sharply. “If you mention again that it’s like the robe the black bear stole, you can forget about ever talking to me again!”

Matthew’s expression fell. She has no appreciation for art. This robe looks amazing

Milly took a deep breath, deciding not to argue with a fool. “Just tell me the real reason you’re here. Don’t tell me it’s to give me a robe, because I don’t believe you”

Matthew didn’t bother hiding it and got straight to the point. “I need to design a Buddhist robe, and I need some inspiration from you.”

“A Buddhist robe?” Milly was puzzled.

Matthew clarified, Technically, it’s hot a traditional Buddhist robe. It’s a fashion piece inspired by the concept of Buddhist robes,”

Milly was even more confused. “There are plenty of monks here wearing actual Buddhist robes. Why come to me? If you need a woman to model, your sister, Stephanie, would be happy to help. Why drag me into this?”

Matthew frowned at the mention of Stephanie, his protective instincts kicking in. “Can you stop being so sarcastic? Why are you calling Stephanie ‘my sister‘? She’s your sister too, you know. We’re family”
