Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love novel Chapter 173

With a scowl, Matthew snatched the sketch right before Lucy’s eyes and flung it at Richard’s face. “No, absolutely not! This sketch is unacceptable. Redesign it.”

Richard took the sketch off his face with confusion as if he was seeing Matthew for the first time. “Why not? Isn’t the sketch nice?”

He was truly puzzled.

Matthew had just said that everything was up to him and that he trusted his vision. Why was it that as soon as Richard finished his sketch, Matthew said that it was unacceptable?

Matthew glared at Richard and said, “What’s so nice about a draft that took 20 minutes to draw? Go draw another one.”

That was not what he said earlier!

Lucy was getting even more confused. She thought that the dress was pretty nice.

Despite the sketch only taking 20 minutes, the design incorporated fashion elements from all over the globe, which Lucy quite liked.

Lucy glowered at Matthew, but there was nothing she could do to refute him.

The Italian man was perplexed by the American man’s unpredictable preferences. Aggrieved, he put the first sketch aside and continued working on the second one.

While sketching, Richard was even more attentive this time. He was determined to satisfy the two picky clients in front of him.

After he finished his sketch, he confidently handed the draft to Matthew and Lucy.

Lucy took a look and was pleasantly surprised.

The dress Richard had just sketched was a two-piece dress. The upper part featured beautiful puffy sleeves adorned with pearls, while the skirt fell just past the knees.

Matthew was taken aback, unsure of what to say. His prolonged silence only fueled Richard’s growing dissatisfaction.

Seeing the scene before her, Lucy stepped in to mediate. “Alright, alright. Matthew, I think Richard’s designs are quite nice. I think the first one is perfectly fine.”

Recalling the first dress, Matthew firmly shook his head. “No, that one won’t do!”

“In that case, you have to tell Richard what’s wrong with it so that he can make the amendments,” Lucy persisted.

Exasperated, Lucy wondered if Matthew had been a CEO for so long that he expected others to just read his mind.

If his subordinates could read his thoughts, they would have become CEOs themselves and invested in their own ventures, no?

Under Lucy’s patient prompting, Matthew eventually spoke up after being silent for a long time, “They’re too revealing. My wife can’t wear dresses like that. The fabric needs to be more substantial, at the very least.”
