Chapter 889


    The evidence suggested that Chloe was really a smart cookie.


    In the living room of Harper’s mansion, Chloe managed to stitch a petal following a basic


    embroidery pattern that Katie had given her.


    While Katie was working on her own embroidery, she imparted some knowledge to Chloe.


    However, upon hearing that there were more than 30 types of patterns, Chloe immediately put


    down the white gauze in her hands.


    “What’s up?” Katie asked, looking at her curiously.


    Chloe scratched her forehead, “Everyone has their own strengths. I don’t think embroidery is my


    thing.”


    Seeing Chloe’s resistant expression, Katie couldn’t help but chuckle.


    “Embroidery requires patience to learn and master. Many people today don’t have the patience for


    it. You could just say you’re impatient, instead of saying it’s not for you.”


    Katie felt Chloe’s excuse wasn’t convincing, not what you’d expect from a smart person.


    Chloe took out her phone, opened up a search engine, typed in “embroidery“, and sure enough,


    there was a detailed introduction and history of it. As she scrolled through the information, she said,


    “Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Asking me to learn embroidery is like asking a pig


    to climb a tree. If used this time to do something else, I might’ve made some decent money.”


    All Katie could do was shake her head. “It’s because everyone thinks like you that embroidery is


    bing rare.”


    Chloe responded nonchntly as she kept scrolling through her phone. “Hmm, do you know that


    embroidery has a history of over 2000 years?” Katie sighed “Are you sure about this? The reason


    you asked me to teach you embroidery was because Mrs. Harper ising back tomorrow, right?”


    Chloe coughed awkwardly, “Cramming at thest minute won’t do much good.”


    “That’s true, especially with something like embroidery. But Mrs. Harper values it a lot.”


    Chloe was well aware of this. “Because there are fewer and fewer embroiderers, Mrs. Harper is a


    bit troubled. Look around, most girls our age can do embroidery.”


    Chloe nodded, looking at Angie and Phoebe, she pretty much got the picture.


    It seemed that she was searching for an heir everywhere.


    At this point, Nathan came back from god knows where, bringing with him a chill and a hint of


    alcohol.


    Nathan sat down on the sofa next to Chloe. He cast a casual nce at Katie, then raised an


    eyebrow, “Oh, you’ve pulled your bangs back? Aren’t you afraid of showing your face?”


    Katie instinctively turned her head away from him, continuing with her embroidery.


    “Is this your sister’s work?” Nathan’s alcohol scent was getting stronger. He picked up the hanky


    that Chloe had been embroidering. “Huh, what is this? It’s all uneven, inconsistent stitches, do you


    know that?”


    Chloe looked at him and almostughed at his actions.


    Nathan took a look at the hanky, picked up the needle, and continued where Chloe had left off.


    The tall guy, with his healthy tanned hands holding the embroidery needle, looked hriously out of


    ce.


    The needle was almost invisible in his fingers, but he was embroidering very seriously.


    Chloe happened to have her phone in her hand, so she subconsciously opened the camera,


    switched to video mode and started recording Nathan. About a minute into the recording, Katie


    suddenly burst intoughter.


    Nathan looked up, and Chloe immediately stopped recording.


    Nathan’s handsome face turned beet red, and he hastily tossed the hanky onto the coffee table.


    “Oh my god!”


    He recoiled as if avoiding the gue, pointing at the hanky with a look of horror on his face.


    “Who… who gave this to me?”


    Chloe picked up the discarded hanky, and took a closer look. It was indeed better than what she


    had done.


    She couldn’t help butugh, “You did a good job, have you learned this before? You’ve been at it for


    a few years, right?”


    Nathan’s face turned even redder, “I… I just did a couple random stitches…


    Katie, who was sitting next to him, covered her mouth andughed. “He was forced to learn


    embroidery by Mrs. Harper when he was a child. Back then, he used to hang out with us girls and


    Mrs. Harper would take him to learn…”


    “Katie, shut up!”


    Seeing this, Chloe couldn’t help butugh.


    “Nathan, your life experiences are really rich.”


    Nathan’s mouth twitched as he thought about those unforgettable past experiences. He closed his


    eyes in resignation.


    Outside the vi, a car engine could be heard. Shortly after, Damon’s tall and straight figure walked


    in. His eyes swept over the people in the living room, finally settling on Chloe.


    !


    She was sitting with Katie, flipping her hand back and forth.


    “Do you guys who know embroidery really take care of your hands?”


    Katie nodded, “Yes, the embroidery thread is very thin and soft. If you don’t take care of your hands,


    it can catch on the thread.”


    Chloe nodded as expected, she held up Katie’s hand to the light, then sighed.


    “Your fingers are slender, and your skin is smooth. Katie, you have really nice hands…”


    “Pfft…”


    Nathan, who was drinking a hangover tea, suddenly spat it out.


    Chloe shot him a sidelong nce.


    “Chloe, remember you’re a woman, can you stop saying these flirtatious things to other girls?”


    Chloe frowned, “How was that flirtatious?”


    Nathan looked at Katie, whose face was red with embarrassment, and his mouth twitched


    involuntarily.


    Unintentional flirting was even more terrifying, okay?!


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    However, just then, Nathan suddenly felt a chilling, terrifying atmosphere, like a wind from hell. His


    body stiffened, he quickly turned around, and sure enough, saw a man shrouded in a dark aura


    slowly walking in from the entrance.
