Heart Hunting

Chapter 110

Wythe stares at her with interest. This lady is a vivid interpretation of the word "beauty”. The outer and

inner beauty of a lady can control a man’s heart for a long time. Appearance or personality alone will

fail to attract a man. But he has been fascinated by her, with only ten minutes of performance in the

court.

"I see. So the several requests I just mentioned are all made by Mr. Ward, right?” Poppy repeats Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

solemnly.

Scout looks at her and then Wythe who doesn’t respond. Thus Scout nods. "Yeah, they’re all my

requests!”

Poppy turns to the judge with a confident smile and says sharply, "The designs I’ve mentioned all

illustrate one point: Navi has already provided Mr. Ward with 100% professional and caring designs.

Every facility on the yacht meets 100% of his personal requirements. Even Mr. Ward made some

unique and unreasonable requirements; the engineers of Navi all did their best. So, why will you feel

dissatisfied with the yacht, Mr. Ward?”

Her sudden and sharp question is like a powerful bomb, making Scout panic.

"I, I, I’m just discontent!” Scout is set up by Poppy and realizes he is in the trap until now.

"You said you’re unsatisfied? But I have a photo, which shows you were happy and content.” Then,

Claire has already presented the evidence No. 3.

As soon as the judge takes the photo, Poppy continues to explain, "The two protagonists in the photo

are Mr. Ward and Godfery, the CEO of Navi Company. After Mr. Ward checked the yacht and felt

content about every tailored facility, they signed the contract and shot a photo with Godfery. Besides,

they even opened a bottle of Lafite to celebrate.”

Poppy stares at Scout with bright eyes again. "If Mr. Ward isn’t satisfied with this yacht, why will you

sign the contract, open an expensive bottle of wine, and take a photo with Godfery?” Her bombarding

words push him into a dead end.

Scout hasn’t expected the female lawyer is so capable. Looking at the photo and hearing her frequent

questions, he is suddenly in a panic and fails to answer the questions for a while. He even avoids eye

contact and tries to ask Wythe for help.

Wythe isn’t anxious at all, with a calm smile as usual. He waits patiently until Poppy finishes her

questions.

"Mr. Chief Justice, my statement is over.” Poppy puts down the pen in her hand and nods at the judge

slightly.

The atmosphere is freaking tense. Everyone finally gets a second to relax. Hearing her excellent

statement, some audience, who doesn’t think highly of Poppy at first, begins to admire her.

It’s Wythe’s turn to make a statement. Wythe applies to the judge and asks for Godfery to testify.

Wythe stands in the position of the attorney representing the plaintiff in a pure black suit and looks at

Godfery, who is on the witness stand, fiercely. He begins to ask, "Mr. Godfery, I’d like to ask you, how

long have you been in this field?”

He bends his head to do the math and replies earnestly, "It has been more than 20 years since I work

in the shipbuilding industry after my graduation.”

"Then could you please briefly tell everyone what the standard for top yachts is?” Wythe puts on a

harmless smile and asks gently.

"Sure.” He pauses and thinks about it. "Our standard is to provide professional design and 100%

service, according to the background, preferences, and taste of clients…”

"That is to say, you haven’t considered the figure of the clients at all?” Wythe narrows his eyes and

begins to counterattack.

"Figure?” Hearing his question, Godfery looks at Poppy nervously, having no idea what Wythe’s

strategy is.

Poppy gives him a hint, gesturing him to calm down and not panic in the court!

A gloating glimmer flashes in his eyes. His assistant gets up and leaves temporarily. After the assistant

comes back, two men behind him carry a door frame model in and put in front of everyone.

After seeing it, Poppy furrows. She has expected that Wythe will make use of it. But she hasn’t

expected that he will make the models, which impacts on her heavily.

"Mr. Chief Justice, the door frame you see is a one-to-one recreation of Alisa’s. Now, I need to do a

test. I need Mr. Ward to walk past this door.” Wythe is especially good at this strategy of experiments.

The judge approves it with a nod. Scout walks to the court and looks at Wythe. Scout can’t pass it

directly at all since he is a little bit chubby. If he wants to walk through, he has to pass sideways.

After the experiment, Scout returns to his seat, while Wythe asks Godfery with a smile, "Mr. Godfery,

you’ve seen this experiment. Is that the professional design you’ve mentioned? You’ve considered

clients’ shape at all. The client, who spent $10 million, has to try hard to pass through the door

sideways every time!”

His tone is so firm and aggressive. Poppy realizes it isn’t good. "Mr. Chief Justice, I can answer this

question on behalf of Godfery!”

She stands up immediately and sits opposite to Wythe. "Every cabin door of Alisa is 30% narrower

than the ordinary one. This narrow design is based on Mr. Ward’s request—to install a full-length mirror

next to the door.”

Claire, who is nearby, heaves a sigh of relief. Luckily, lawyer Poppy is well-prepared.

"But, Navi Company still doesn’t consider the shape problem and follows the client’s request without

professionalism. As for that so-called full-length mirror, it can barely be called a half-length one for Mr.

Ward!” Wythe has unimpeachable proofs and catches the breakthrough point, continuing to

counterattack.

Godfery opens his mouth but nothing comes out. He has nothing to debate.

Wythe takes the opportunity to strike. His determined smile makes Godfery frighten. "In fact, the size

issue I just raised is just a small one. The biggest mistake in the whole design is the lavender-flavored

air freshener system for the entire yacht.”

"Mr. Godfery, could you please tell us why you chose lavender-flavored freshener?”

Godfery thinks for a while and glances at Scout, answering quickly, "It’s Mr. Ward who insisted it.”

"Then do you know that Mr. Ward has nasal allergies and any flower scent may cause him to get

sick?!” Wythe stresses deliberately.

"Well… Mr. Ward seemed to request it when filling the information form. We had to follow his request,

thus choosing this flavor.” Godfery hesitates for a while but still answers it honestly.

The arc of Wythe’s smile grows wider as if the glimmer of success is waiting for him. He fastens his

speed and condemns sharply, "Mr. Godfery, you did know Mr. Ward has nasal allergies, but why didn’t

you stop him, just following the so-called "caring service” rule blindly? You said you’ve been in this

industry for more than 20 years, with a professional standard. But when the client made unreasonable

requests, why didn’t you stop him? Is it just for profits?”
