Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 816

Matthew rolled his eyes at her and said, "Killing is my job. You should use your hands to paint and save people's lives. You don't
need to taint them with oil or blood."
A wide smile reached Harper's eyes. She was so happy and content. Matthew was in a good mood, as well. Moreover, Allen
must have known that they had just come back so he didn't send someone to disturb them. The two had a very rare time of
leisure.
In the kitchen of the Phoenix House, Angelica and Peony kept shaking their heads while looking at the couple inside. "They
rushed into the kitchen after coming back and even kicked us out. Are they going to cook by themselves?"
Nina then asked the two maids to leave and not disturb Harper and Matthew. After that, she also left. The moment she left the
kitchen, Barry stopped her.
"Barry, is there something wrong? They're busy in the kitchen. If you have something to tell them, I'm afraid you will have to wait
