Seeing Poppy''s reluctance, I had to say, "There''s something very important at home today. Another day, perhaps. My apologies."
"Oh! Ms. Poppy, I just remembered. Do you remember Harmony?" Lauren suddenly brought up, and I instantly understood her intention.
Poppy looked at Lauren and nodded. "Yes! What about her?"
"Have you heard of how she''s doing now?" Lauren teased a bit.
"How?" Poppy''s curiosity was piqued.
"She''s turned into a stunning beauty, even more so than before. Probably making aeback in the entertainment industry. You might have another formidable rival."
Lauren was clearly up to no good.
"Is that so?" Poppy asked skeptically.
"It''s true. I''ve seen her in person. She''s back in action," Lauren said. "It seems like she''s after some resources."
Poppy looked dismissive. "Times have changed. It''s difficult to make aeback in our industry."
Lauren nodded. "We outsiders really don''t understand your industry! No wonder you all work so hard to find a good match for yourselves."
"Every woman wants a good ending. How many are as fortunate as you two?" Poppyplimented us.
"People have different destinies," Lauren said with a touch of wisdom.
"Yeah. That''s why we envy you so much." Poppy genuinely expressed her admiration. I could tell that she meant it, and it didn''t feel forced. Just then, Carol knocked and came in. She said to me, "Work''s done! I''m going off now!"
I nodded and said, "You guys can go first. I''m waiting for As to pick me up."
Carol immediately gestured an ''OK'' and said, "Alright, I''m off. You guys carry on."
Not long after, As called, asking me toe downstairs. The three of us then got up and went down together. Poppy had to bid me farewell at the door. She watched me enter As''s car while Lauren drove back to Pleca Park.
It just so happened that Ava''s ride had also just returned.
As soon as the car door opened, she jumped down with a cheer and ran straight to As.
"Daddy, why did you and Mommye back so early today?"
She reached out for As to pick her up.
As lifted her with a smile. "Ava! I came back quickly because I missed you."
Ava hugged his neck and gave As a loud smooch.
Then, she called out to Lauren, "Aunt Lauren, I have a question for you."
She climbed down from As''s arms, ran toward Lauren, and hugged her with delight.
"What''s the question?" Lauren asked with joy.
Ava whispered something in her ear, and I saw Lauren nodding andughing.
Ava''s expression was exaggerated, her little face full of shock. I wondered what could make her react like that.
After greeting everyone, Jenny had already run back to find her grandmother.
I nced at As and asked softly, "Do you think she will make a move tonight?"
I was, of course, referring to Liora.
"She definitely won''t let Mnie get caught. Mnie knows too much about her, at least enough to give her a lot of trouble this time. Not to mention that it will involve a bunch of people!" As said.
"Now Liora is besieged from all sides. You think we''re the only ones pressuring her?"
As said, "It''s already confirmed.
Felix and Franklin, the two brothers, are also connected to her. If we move against her, it will expose a whole lot. And there''s also Melvern... en.swhovelsMaterial ? of N?velDrama.Org.
"Keegan''s side is the same. If Mnie isn''t captured and brought back, he''s on thin ice. Once Mnie is captured, he''s doomed." I also
understood the logic in this.
"So, she will definitely suppress Mnie. You can rest assured. She will definitely make a move," As reassured me.
Hearing As say this, I felt more at ease. It seemed like Liora''s good days wereing to an end.
I was more eager to see what Mnie looked like now. The days of her escape for over a month must have been tormenting. Perhaps this time would be her end. For her, it might be a good thing.
