Rena read this poem over and over again, to no avail. She could not understand what Harper meant. Looking at Matthew, she asked, "Is this the method to detoxify you? How come it seems like a poem praising the spring?"

Matthew had to grip the handle of his chair to prevent himself from laughing. He had watched Rena read the poem several times. He did not expect her to be brilliant, but the way she so innocently asked him what the poem meant was beyond him. Indeed, Harper was right in her judgment of her in the poem.

"You don't understand?" he asked.

Rena shook her head and said, "I do not understand why Her Highness wrote down the method to detoxify you with such obscure language. It is really difficult for me to figure it out. It would have been better if she had written it more straightforwardly."

"It is not His Highness I am waiting for," Harper answered. Harper took out a rolling pin from under her sleeves. "I had expected Rena to come and start a fight after finding out that I called her an ass in the poem. I have a rolling pin prepared to serve her. It's a pity that she hasn't come."

Forsythia resisted the urge to roll her eyes and took the rolling pin from Harper's hands. At first, she had thought that Harper was waiting for Matthew, but she could not have been more wrong. She was actually waiting for Rena, and had even prepared for it. There was no way of knowing what went on inside that lovely head of hers.

"All right, close the door."

"But His Highness has not yet arrived."

"He has been occupied with some matters lately. He won't come today," Harper said, certainty in her voice. The most important thing for Matthew right now was to get the Tribulation Flower to detoxify himself, so his absence today was expected.
