Heart Hunting

Chapter 4

After walking out of the courtroom, Jeremy takes Poppy out of the courthouse through a side door.

Poppy doesn't want to reveal her identity so soon, so she accepts his arrangement.

They get into the car, and the black BMW smoothly across the road as a fish in the sea.

She finally returns to this city!

The street view outside the window is completely new. Poppy watches everything outside with

indifference, and the scenes before she left begin to flow through her mind.

One ticket, one admission notice, and one suitcase, the family didn't give her even a cent. She was

exiled to California.

In the past five years, she worked hard to earn money, slept on the streets, and suffered from cold and

hunger. At the same time, she had to be on guard against the killers sent by Hilda. She was in a

desperate situation for countless times, but she survived every time.

She has said that one day, she would revenge the Greens, and gets back everything they owed to her,

with interest and capital!

A squeak breaks Poppy's thinking.

“Poppy, there's a car in the middle of the road in front of us and stops us. If I'm right, the car should be

a Maybach 62S, worth around three million and six hundred thousand dollars, with only 20 limited

production in the world.” Jeremy's eyes brightens and he looks back at Poppy.

Poppy looks ahead. A luxurious and noble Maybach intercepts their car and blocks the road. Under the

sun, the gorgeous car can not be ignored.

Poppy frowns her eyebrows. She's already figured out who's in the car.

“Stay in the car, I’ll meet him by myself.” Poppy gets off and walks to the Maybach.

After five years, Poppy is no longer sentimental, and has grown into a beautiful woman like a rose with

thorns.

As Poppy and Kenny look into each other's eyes, there seems to be some sort of undercurrent around

them.

Poppy's long curly hair hangs down on her chest at will, which makes her look lazy but a little bit

charming. She smiles lightly and leans against the door and says, "Kenny, after five years, can't you

Dakings afford to lose seventy million dollars now?”

"Wait," she adds, pretending to be surprised, "after five years, I don't know if you're still my Kenny?”

The sunlight gently sprinkles on her beautiful cheek, makes her more charming in the sunshine.

Especially her red lips, which Kenny has never forgotten. That night, he was attracted by her lips.

He looks away with his cold eyes and says, "I'm not in the habit of looking up at people.”

With a deeper smile on her lips, Poppy opens the door and gets into the car.

After closing the door, she says directly to the driver, "go to the MD building.”

The driver is so surprised. He looks up in the rear view mirror and asks respectfully, "Sir?”

“As she said.”

"Yes.”

The Maybach starts. Poppy sits beside Kenny and slightly tilts her head. She looks at Kenny's

handsome face, deliberately approaches him, and says, "this is a luxury car, so I guess, you certainly

don't fuss about money, is it because I didn't pick up your business card just now so you get angry?”

Kenny looks at her after listening. There is an sense of interest in his eyes. He doesn't speak, as if

waiting for her to continue.

"Don't be so stingy," Poppy says, smiling even more coquettish as she gently brushes the dust off on

her blazer. "It was for your own good. Your company has just lost a lawsuit. If I took your business card,

others may think you were here to flatter me!”

She gives him a sly wink and leans forward, "do you think so, Kenny?”

As she approaches, he smells a familiar fragrance that reminds him of five years ago.

Kenny raises his eyebrows. He snorts, “Well, interesting..."

She smiles, and her fingers begin to touch his face. “What? Don’t look down on me.” Poppy cools her

eyes, "Even you look down on me, you still have to pay seventy million tamely!”

Kenny clasps her hand, looks at her goblin like face and says, "Seventy million is a gift for you, in

return for your gift five years ago.”

His words remind her of the things five years ago. When she is distracted for a moment, Kenny says, “I

can still remember the gift you gave me five years ago.”

As his approaches, Poppy quickly regains her mind and looks into his eyes. "you don't want to play

again here, do you?”

Kenny's hand slowly moves down, with a trace of ambiguity in his eyes. When his hand touches her

slender waist, he pulls her to make her fall into his arms. "What do you think?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The ambiguous atmosphere quickly fills with the car.

Poppy takes her time. Her slender fingers strokes his high nose, and she says with a hint of pity in her

voice. "But I'm not interested in you, what shall I do?”

She picks up his tie and plays with it recklessly. Her tone suddenly turns cold. "What Ethel used makes

me feel dirty!”

Instead of getting angry, Kenny laughs, "I didn't expect you to be picky.”

"If you see more men, you will naturally be picky. And you won't want to waste time on ordinary goods.”

She pushes him away as she saying.

"Only after inspection can you know what kind of goods it is.”

"Like you, I can tell the size just by the outside.” Poppy says quizzically, and looks at the side mirror.

Seeing Jeremy's black BMW kept following, she yells, "stop.”

Kenny looks surprised. "It's still a long way from the MD building. Are you sure you want to get off?”

Poppy smiles, "It won't bother you.”

“Stop.” Kenny saw her proud face and respects her wish.

When the car stops, Kenny watches her walk out, and lower down the window. "When do we make an

appointment to check my size?”

Poppy doesn’t even look at him. She holds her head high and gets into the black BMW.

Kenny is stunned.

No woman has ever dared to ignore his words!

Poppy! She's really a woman with a plenty of guts!

The black BMW that has followed him before roars past him, taking the Maybach's lane successfully.

Kenny raises a deep smile. "It's going to be fun!”
