Heart Hunting

Chapter 96

When they arrive at Prince Square, Mrs. Murphy is very generous. After stepping out of the shop of

Givenchy, she takes Poppy into Chanel, saying, “Poppy, take a look around and see what bags you

like, we’ll take them all!”

“Mrs. Murphy, we’ve already bought a lot of things!” They have bought clothes, jewelries, and shoes.

“It’s not enough! You’re a lawyer, you know? You should dress up yourself with beautiful things. Don’t

let others look down upon you.” Mrs. Murphy picks up a little black sheepskin bag and asks her, “do

you like it?”

“Well, it is nice.”

Mrs. Murphy then says to the clerk who is following them, “pack it!”

“Yes, ma’am!” The clerks all smile. It seems that they can only see the commission in their eyes now.

After going out from the Chanel, Mrs. Murphy takes Poppy to buy skin care products. “Ma’am, this

product is the new whitening essence mask of LAMER. It has the active essence Miracle Broth. So the

content of the whitening essence in one mask is the same as a whole bottle of essence.” The sales

clerk introduces the products to them enthusiastically.

After hearing, Mrs. Murphy thinks it is a good product. She says generously, “give me ten boxes!”

The sales clerk is ravished with joy. She responds with a big smile, “yes, ma’am.”

They walk out of Price Square with several shop assistants behind them. Since they bought too many

things, they can only ask for help.

The trunk of the car is full of the things they bought, and the money they won is almost run out. Mrs.

Murphy then happily takes Poppy home.

Daisy is not surprised to see them come back with lots of things. She is used to it. “Looks like you have

a wonderful day, my lady.”

Mrs. Murphy puts her arm around Poppy’s, “yeah, I really do. You didn’t see it. Poppy was so cool

when she won those women in mahjong!”

Poppy says the same words as before, “I’m just lucky today!”

“Poppy, we’re family, do you really have to be so modest?” Mrs. Murphy says to Daisy, “see? Poppy

win the money so that we can buy so many things!”

“Wow!” Daisy is so surprised. “Miss Green, you’re so gorgeous!”

“Uh...don’t overestimate me!” It’s just because Poppy doesn’t like the behavior of those women.

“Oh, by the way, Daisy, these jewelries are all yours now! They were those women’s, but I don’t want

their things. You can wear them or sell them if you like.” Mrs. Murphy takes out the jewelries from her

bag to Daisy.

Daisy looks at the jewelries and gets stunned. “My lady, you win all these?”

Mrs. Murphy smiles, “no, Poppy did.”

Daisy takes over the jewelries. “Oh, my god...” She looks to Poppy with worshipping.

“She’s awesome, right? This is my future daughter-in-law!” Mrs. Murphy is so proud. She thinks Poppy

is beautiful and smart, and she’s so good at many things. Although she would sometimes piss Mrs.

Murphy off.

“Mrs. Murphy, don’t say it wrong, please. I’m not your future daughter-in-law.” Poppy corrects her in

time.

Mrs. Murphy doesn’t care. “Anyway, my son will take care of you sooner or later.”

“Then let’s wait and see. I’m tired now, I’m going to have a rest.”Poppy lazily yawns and walks upstairs.

“Sure, go ahead, I’ll asks the servant to take the things to your room.” Mrs. Murphy says.

As Poppy leaves, Daisy looks worried. “Ma’am, do you think that the young master can really take care

of Miss Green?”

Mrs. Murphy straights her back and replies, “why not?”

“Miss Green is beautiful and smart. She must have a lot of pursuer. I’m afraid that...a long delay may

cause trouble.” Daisy also cares about Kenny.

“Yeah...you’re right. I know that. But what can we do?”

Daisy gets closed to Mrs. Murphy and says in her ears, “I think we can let the young master to take the

initiative is to gain the upper hand.”

“He already did it. They slept together last night!” Mrs. Murphy answers happily. “But...I don’t know if

they really did it.”

She is worried. Poppy didn’t deny it this morning, but she didn’t admit it, either.

Mrs. Murphy sighs, how could you be so useless, Kenny!

…

Kenny, who is regarded as a useless man, is so busy when in the company today. He gets home at Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

nine in the evening after finishing the last meeting. The living room isn’t light up. He looks at the watch,

it’s only nine eighty. Are they all sleeping?

He walks to the second floor. Poppy is not in the room. But her luggage is still there.

“Where are the people?” Kenny feels strange. He walks to his mother’s room, and find out the light is

on from outside. He lightly pushes the door open, and sees Poppy and Mrs. Murphy lying on the bed,

wearing their new pyjamas in the same color.

At this moment, his heart is moved by this scene.

The light is warm, and his heart is warmer.

Mrs. Murphy finds Kenny at the door. She unpack the mask and walks to him, “Kenny, why do you

come back so late? Have you had your dinner?”

“No, I’ve been having meeting whole day.” Kenny answers his mother, but his eyes are focusing on

Poppy, which sits beside the bed and applying her mask, reading a magazine quietly.

Then he glances at the shopping bags at the corner, “mom, you won today?”

“Yes, Poppy is so awesome! She won lots of money.” Mrs. Murphy takes out one of the shopping bags

right away and hand it to Kenny, “this shirt is for you. Try it on.”

Kenny takes out the shirt from the bag. It is a dark blue shirt. “It looks OK.”

“And these are all for you. Take a look. I’m gonna cook you something to eat.” Mrs. Murphy looks back

at Poppy, “Poppy, would you like to eat something?”

“No, thanks!” Poppy is still applying the mask, so her voice is a little light, and the tone is a little soft,

which sounds very comfortable.

After Mrs. Murphy going out, Kenny puts down the shopping bags and walks to Poppy, “looks like my

mom is a fan of you now.”

Poppy ignores him and continues reading the magazine.

It is quiet in the room, only the sound of flipping the magazine. Kenny looks at the mask in her face,

and then takes it off and holds her in arms. “Hey, little goblin, I’m talking to you!”

“Kenny! Why did you takes off my mask? I’m not done yet!”

“You can apply it every day. Come on, let me give you a kiss as a reward.” Kenny presses her on the

bed.

Poppy covers his mouth with her hands and turn her head, “what a shit reward. I don’t want it!”

“You don’t want it? But I do.” Kenny puts her hands above her head, and directly kisses her on the lips.

The sweet taste makes him relaxed. He is so tired today, and her kiss is just right for him to relief.

Poppy is not willing to show weakness. She kisses him back hard. There are several times that she

tries to bite his tongue. But Kenny doesn’t make her succeed.

Just as they are busy in kissing, Mrs. Murphy comes up. She has just finished cooking a bowl of

noodles, and plans to ask Kenny to go downstairs to eat. Unexpectedly, she sees them kissing with

each other.

Mrs. Murphy hides by the door and watch in the dark. She laughs quietly. It’s so great! Poppy will

definitely be her daughter-in-law!

Mrs. Murphy lightly closes the door and goes downstairs.
