Restoring a Life After Seven Years of Wrong Love novel Chapter 241

Yvette shared Matthew's thoughts, though her expression and posture remained entirely neutral.

There was no way Professor Crispin would take on Willow.

Crispin had a strict set of standards for accepting apprentices.

His very first rule was flawless moral character.

Clearly, Willow failed on that front right out of the gate.

Matthew gave a light chuckle, soft but loud enough for everyone in the room to hear.

Willow furrowed her brow and immediately launched into a speech about the honors she had received at the Royal Academy of Arts.

Admittedly, her achievements were stellar compared to her peers.

But compared to Crispin's other apprentices, she fell short, and compared to even a fraction of Yvette's talent, she was miles behind.

"I'm old, and I don't care about meaningless titles. Mr. Shelby, Ms. Huxley, I must ask you to leave."

Crispin explicitly showed them the door. "And don't forget to take your velvet antler tonic and imperial reserve tea with you on the way out."

"Crispin, since you're opposed to the idea, I won't force your hand." Jabez spoke at a leisurely pace. "But those health supplements are just a small token. Keep them."

Willow's lips parted, wanting to add something, but Jabez cut her off.

"Willow, let's go."

Willow had no choice but to stand, wrapping her arm affectionately around the man's bicep.

"Matthew, see our guests out," Crispin instructed.

Matthew followed behind the couple, picking up the expensive gifts they had left in the living room.

"Mr. Shelby, we have no shortage of health supplements here. You'd better take these back so Ms. Huxley can use them."

"Keep them." Jabez's thin lips barely moved. His gaze swept past Matthew, looking deeper into the house.

Noticing the subtle movement, Matthew seamlessly stepped into the doorway, blocking the man's line of sight.

"Mr. Sutton, these gifts are just a small token of our appreciation," Willow said with a sweet smile. "As a master in the restoration field, Crispin is a role model to me. His contributions to the industry are heights I could only dream of reaching. It's only right for a junior to offer a senior some restorative gifts."

"I appreciate the gesture, Ms. Huxley, but they aren't needed."

Matthew unceremoniously dropped the items outside the door. He didn't care if they threw them in the trash—he wasn't keeping them!
