Heart Hunting

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 Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

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.

When Poppy is looking around, Susan takes the initiative to come up to her. She asks with a pleasant

voice, “can I help you, miss? Are you here to buy some paintings?”

Poppy looks at the man not far away. He looks the same as the photo on the profile she read earlier.

Then she turns to look at Susan and says, “not really. I’m here to return this painting to the owner.”

Susan doesn’t get what she means. She looks puzzled. Poppy opens the picture directly and hands it

to her. “My family name is Green.”

Susan’s facial expression suddenly changes. There is a sense of flustered in her eyes. She looks at the

painting. And of course, she knows who made it. Her heavy body sways a little bit because of her guilty

conscience.

The man not far away feels something wrong. He comes over to support her. “Susan, are you OK?”

As expected! Poppy smiles.

As he comes over, he sees the painting, too, and also gets shocked. He looks at Poppy, “where did you

get it?”

On the contrary to their bewilderment, Poppy is calm. She glances around and asks, “is there any other

place available for talking?”

Susan is flustered and nervous. When she looks at Poppy’s eyes, she feels more scared and guilty.

She even has a feeling like being caught in bed.

The man feels even worse. He immediately close the door, and says to Poppy seriously. “Let’s go to

the lounge.”

“Sure!” Poppy looks at Susan who has been lowering her head, and has understood her mind. Susan is

weak and very timid. Poppy can easily make good use of such a girl.

Susan is very scared. This woman’s family name is Green. She must have something to do with the

Greens, otherwise she wouldn’t come to her. Has Bryant’s wife known her already?

Thinking of this, Susan’s face turn pale. She has imagined many kinds of possibilities.

They goes to the lounge. It is also decorated in white. And there is still floating with the smell of

paintings. On the desk, there are some paint, all kinds of painting brushes and linen cloth. It can be

seen that the owner is particularly fond of painting.

As soon as they sit down, Susan can’t wait to ask, “what do you want from me?”

“It’s such a quick start!” Poppy looks at their frightened expression, and is more confident of

succeeding. “You are afraid of me?”

Poppy’s arrival is undoubtedly a time bomb. If they are not cautious, they may be blown out.

The man gets puzzled. This woman seems not hostile, which is strange. He asks tentatively, “aren’t

you Bryant’s daughter?”

Normally, if she comes here to catch a traitor, she should be fierce. But she isn’t like that, except for the

gloomy and indistinguishable look.

“Yes, I am his daughter.” Poppy admits it.

Susan trembles a bit when hearing that. The man holds her and gently pats her on the shoulder to

comfort her.

Poppy smiles suddenly. She says, “but the purpose of my coming if different from what you think.”

They takes a look at each other, confusing by her words.

Poppy stops beating around the Bush. She takes a look at the man and then looks at Susan with her

sharp eye, surely asking, “the baby in your belly is this Mr. Wu’s, right?”

Susan and the man keep silent. They are flustered in heart. This woman even found out this truth, what

else can hide from her!
