Heart Hunting novel Chapter 85

In the law firm.

During the lunch break, Poppy doesn’t have lunch, but waits for a phone call, a phone call that fills her with hope.

The clock on the wall is ticking. In the quiet office, there is no any other sound. Poppy leans back on the chair, and her long fingers tap on her cell phone.

There is a slight smile on her pretty face, but in her eyes, there is a kind of sinister expression.

The phone rings suddenly. Poppy answers it without looking at the screen.

“Miss Green, what you want will be delivered to you in 5 minutes,” A man’s voice, which is low and calm but sounds a little creepy, comes from the other end of the phone.

“I’ll call you after I check the final payment.”

After hanging up the phone, she receives a package in a minute as expected. Poppy sings it, and close the door. She opens the package. There is a painting of a woman and a paper bag in it.

The woman in the painting is beautiful. She’s not coquettish, but pure and kind. She’s smiling peacefully, with deep love in her eyes. Presumably she’s looking at her lover.

Instead of spending lots of time in studying the picture, Poppy opens the paper bag. There’s some detailed information of two people. From their identity background and experience to their current situation, all the details are listed in the document. The woman’s name is Susan, who is the mistress that Bryant hides outside. And the other is...

Poppy’s eyes are full of shining light. After reading all the information patiently, she locks the document in the drawer with satisfaction. The she takes the picture with her and leaves the office.

Poppy drives out of the parking lot of MD building. The black Audi drives on the road smoothly like a fish, heading forward to another place.

Thirty minutes later, she arrives at a cultural area full of artistic atmosphere. This area is the place where this city culture accumulates with a museum, famous cultural sites, art galleries and so on.

Poppy slows down a little and continues driving on this area which is full of many buildings in different decoration styles, looking for a gallery named Hech.

After turning a corner, Poppy sees the top of a special building with the characters “Hech Gallery” from afar.

The decoration style of the building is really interesting.

It is an abstract polygon colorful architecture. The large cone at the top is the most special. Poppy didn’t expect Susan’s lover to be so romantic.

She finds a place to park the car. Instead of visiting the gallery in a rush, Poppy chooses to wait outside for Susan patiently.

The weather is really hot. Even the wind is also hot and dry. The concrete road is in a high heat which seems to scorch people. And it even reflects golden light.

Poppy sits in the car enjoying the cool wind from the conditioner. She’s in a good mood. Therefore, she feels all of the things outside the window are also beautiful.

Time passes by quickly. At three in the afternoon, a pure-looking woman with fox like eyes shows at the gallery. She’s dressed in a floral loose dress and a pair of white shoes. If it wasn’t for that big belly, she would be mistaken as a student. Obviously, she is Susan.

Poppy stares at her like a wolf staring at the prey, revealing a meaningful smile.

After Susan just enters into the gallery, Poppy takes the picture with her and walks to the gallery right away.

The interior design of the gallery isn’t like its appearance. It’s been decorated with white walls and wooden floor. The vaulted ceiling gives people a sense of expansion. There is a distance between one painting and another. That’s an ingenious design, for it’s not easy to cause visual fatigue.

There is a tall green plant at every corner. The whole gallery looks artistic. White color gives people a sense of wider vision of view. It’s very comfortable to be in it.
