Heart Hunting novel Chapter 98

Seeing Poppy hang up the phone, Mrs. Murphy asks right away, “Kenny ask you to deal with lawsuit? Is the company in trouble?”

“Don’t worry, Mrs. Murphy. Your son is treacherous and cunning. There is no any trouble with his company.”

“How could you judge him like that? At least he looks good. Anyway, who’s in trouble then?” Mrs. Murphy continues asking.

“His friend, Noel. There is some trouble with his company.” Poppy puts the last piece of pancake into her mouth.

“Then go, Poppy! Take care of it, and I’ll make you pig brain soup tonight.”

Thinking of the shape of pig brain, she rejects right away. “No! It’s not necessary.”

“You don’t understand. It is good for your brain.”

Poppy looks at Mrs. Murphy, who has packed the dishes and walks into the kitchen. She thinks over the words and feels really strange.

Just as Kenny said, in less than an hour, Noel personally picks up Poppy to the company.

When seeing Noel, Mrs. Murphy speaks to him,” Noel, you must take good care of our Poppy.”

Noel is so surprised. “Mrs. Murphy, since when did she become ‘your’ Poppy?” Noel takes a look at Poppy on the sofa. No way?! Even Mrs. Murphy is tamed by Poppy?

“Sooner or later, she’ll be one of our family. And if you dare to let her work overtime for you, you can never call me Mrs. Murphy again.” Mrs. Murphy tries to protect Poppy.

“All right. So Mrs. Murphy, does Poppy live in your house now?” Noel thinks it’s odd to see Poppy here in such an early morning, unless she lives here.

“Of course. She and Kenny are trying to improve their relationship and give birth to my grandson!” Mrs. Murphy is a little hostile to Noel, so she says that on purpose.

Noel doesn’t know what to responds.

Mrs. Murphy follows them out of the house. She tells Poppy to come back early tonight, and don’t make herself too tired when working, as if she is Poppy’s mother.

Even Noel is kinda disbelieve when he hears that. “Mrs. Murphy, I’m afraid you’re not so good to Kenny like this?”

Mrs. Murphy shakes her hand, “no, he would only think that I’m annoying. Well, be careful when driving.”

After getting on the car, Noel hands Poppy the document that he brought. “Poppy, read it first. And feel free to ask me anything you want to know. I’ll take you to talk to the person who in charge of this case when we get to the company.”

Poppy nods her head. She opens the document and reads it carefully. The content in the document is about the yacht case. Poppy names this lawsuit as the yacht counterplea case.

Along the way to the company, Poppy keeps silent. Noel takes several looks at her through the rearview mirror. He wants to talk to her, but only to find that she keeps staring at the document silently. Knowing that she is busy thinking, Noel has to dismiss his idea of talking to her.

The sunlight covers her body through the window. The look on her face when she is focusing on working is more attractive.

Noel dare not to disturbs her. But whenever he gets a chance, he looks at her through the rearview mirror with the feeling of worshiping in his eyes. He thinks, no matter in what aspects, Poppy is always so beautiful and enchanting.

About 40 minutes later, the car arrived at the financial district of the city centre. Noel doesn’t speak a word along the way until the car stops in front of the company.

Poppy finally comes to herself. She looks outside. She has a sense of trance for just a second. How fast time passes! She thinks.

As a gentleman, Noel get off to open the rear door. Poppy steps out with her long legs, which are enchanting enough to attract the men who happens to pass by the building, including the employees in the company. They are all confused at the same time, who is this woman that can let Noel personally open the door for her?

Poppy gracefully gets out of the car. She is wearing a professional suit and holding the documents. Her delicate face and the cold eye successfully attracts the men around.

Poppy is still calm even all the people around are staring at her. Noel leads her into the company. “I’ll take you to meet my mother first, then we’ll go to the conference room. The legal counsel and the person in charge of the case are waiting for you there.”

“OK.”

When Poppy is working, she never mixes her personal feeling and mood with the work. She is so serious that even Noel doesn’t dare to kidding. He pretends to be as serious as her.

Navi Group has been taken care of by Mrs. Gilbert and Noel recently. Noel’s father has on a business trip abroad about a new project. Unexpectedly, something happens after he left.

“Knock knock...”

“Come in!” The gentle woman inside the room answers the door.

Noel walks in with Poppy. Mrs. Gilbert looks up and focuses her eyes on Poppy. Then she knows this girl is not someone who can be look down upon, especially when she looks at Poppy’s sharp eyes.

Noel talks to his mother, “mom, this is lawyer Poppy that I recommended to you.”

“Hi, Mrs. Gilbert, nice to meet you.” Poppy greets her politely.

Mrs. Gilbert glances at her son. She doesn’t whether it is her illusion that she feels that even her son becomes more serious than usual in the presence of this girl.

“Nice to see you, lawyer Poppy. I heard that you just came back from New York recently?” Mrs. Gilbert has already read her profile.
