Heart Hunting novel Chapter 97

Time passes fast.

It has been three days since pornographic incident of Jean happened. Poppy has been making excuse that she is on a business trip to avoid meeting Jean. Until she makes sure that Jean has found another lawyer to deal with the matter, she finally decides to show up.

Jean’s nose seems to be more sensitive than the dog’s. Just as Poppy turns on her phone, Jean calls her.

She doesn’t answers it until the second call.

Poppy slowly answers the phone. Before she speaks, Jean has took the initiative to speak, “lawyer Poppy, finally you turn on your phone! Where are you now? I didn’t find you in the firm, and your phone was not on service, either. I almost thought you’re evaporate!”

“I went to New York a week ago, so I didn’t use my domestic sim card.” Poppy answers her calmly.

“Fine. I’m in a big trouble, have you seen the news?” Jean stops tangles whether she had actually been abroad. She directly tells Poppy the intention of her phone call.

Poppy replies in a cold tone, “that fitness coach must have been bribed. He got close to you on purpose to take those pictures. But sorry, I’m not going to deal with this case.”

“You don’t want to earn money? It’s too late to talk about that coach. I’ll give you a million. Please help me sue that forum!” Jean doesn’t believe that money can’t make her take this case.

Poppy walks to the balcony, looking at the bright morning sunlight, her eyes almost close. And she rejects decisively, “no. I won’t take it. Even if it is 10 million, I won’t take it, either. You can only blame yourself for being too stupid in this matter. You can’t stand the loneliness, and it leads you to the trap that someone else sets.”

The one who set this trap must be Hilda, but now it is not the best time for Poppy to show up. If Hilda knows Poppy has come back now, then Poppy’s plans would be messed up.

“Lawyer Poppy, don’t be so arrogant. If it isn’t for the last time you help me win that estate case, I wouldn’t come to you this time. There are also many capable lawyers outside your firm, don’t think that...”

“Then just find another one! Besides, I’ve reminded you before, the Greens would definitely not let go of you. But you didn’t take it seriously. And now even you win the lawsuit, you can’t win your reputation back. You will only make the scandal bigger.” Poppy stands in the sunshine, but the coldness is still in her eyes.

“What do you mean? Don’t think you are so proud to even look down on money. Let’s wait and see how long you can be so arrogant.”

“That’s all I want to tell you. Anyway, I can’t help you in this case!” After saying, Poppy hand up the phone. She has told Jean everything she wants to say. It’s not necessary to talk to her for long.

“Knock knock-” Someone knocks at the door. Poppy looks up and finds it is Mrs. Murphy. She stands at the door and looks at Poppy.

“Good morning, Mrs. Murphy.”

Mrs. Murphy waves to her, “Poppy, stop talking on the phone, go downstairs for breakfast.”

After hearing, Poppy does feel a little hungry. She puts away her mobile phone and responds, “okay!”

Mrs. Murphy then take another look at the room, and she frowns her eyebrows. “Where’s Kenny? Why don’t I see him in such an early morning?”

They come out of the room at the same time. Poppy smiles and replies, “I don’t know.”

Mrs. Murphy looks at her in surprised, “how come you don’t know where he is? Weren’t you together last night?”

It’s so strange! Since Poppy lived here, Mrs. Murphy has been observing every night. Kenny has stayed in her room for the last two nights.

But Mrs. Murphy was too sleepy last night, so that she went to bed early and didn’t pay attention to them.

Poppy knows what Mrs. Murphy means. She shows a tricky smile and says, “your son is not good at sex. He was kicked out by me last night.”

”What?!” Mrs. Murphy gets stunned, “he’s not good at...” sex?

How terrible!

Mrs. Murphy sighs in heart.

Poppy takes a meaningful look at her and takes the initiative to walk into the dining room.
