Heart Hunting novel Chapter 116

The man behind her was so startled that he ducked aside hastily and immediately spoke up, "It's me!"

When Poppy saw the person was Bryant, she quitted what she had been doing and stared at him coldly, "what brought you here?"

"Poppy, I want to talk to you."

Poppy was disdainful of him, "I have nothing to talk about with you."

Poppy turned around to leave, Bryant chased after her. Poppy turned back with antipathy, "If you keep following me, I'll call security immediately."

"I really want to talk to you, my daughter."

His company was in a pressing situation; he thought about whether to have a talk with her the whole afternoon, and finally he decided to come to see her. Because now, only she could save his company.

"You want to talk to me?

What else is there to talk about? I've said what I want to say that day in the office."

Bryant saw that she was not going into the building and felt that he might had a chance to talk to her, therefore he forced a smile on his face, "Daughter ......"

"Don't call me that disgusting name."

Bryant compromised, "I always want to tell you and your mother thar I am sorry. It was all my fault. I've realized my mistake long time ago. Poppy, can you forgive Dad?"

"Forgive you?"

Poppy looked at him up and down, "How dare you to ask if I can forgive you. Are you mad?"

How could she ever forgive him? Her mother's death was the pain of her life.

"...... Poppy, I know you've been upset about your mother's death, but I've actually been feeling guilty for so many years. I thought I could offer you and your mother a better life, but your mother came here and then got depression, and that's why it was a big mistake!"

Bryant shook his head sadly, "It's all my fault!"

Poppy looked at Bryant with indifference, waiting for him to finish his self-directed drama, and then she said, "What rights do you have to bring up my mother?"

Haterd popped out of her eyes, like a silver needle stabbing into his heart. Bryant knew that she hated him very much. How bright could she be as a girl who grew up with hatred in her heart.

But under the present circumstances, he had to give in to her.

"Yes, I have no rights, but your mother's death has also been a pain in my life."

He said, and slapped himself on the face.

Poppy felt ridiculous at his behavior, "Have you done enough with your drama?"

Bryant was stunned, looking at her for a moment, unable to speak.

"You're not going to convince me with that sentimental drama,"

Poppy kicked off the stones with her feet. Her eyes stared straight at him sharply, "Say what you want to say; there must be something you want from me by bringing up my mother, right?"

Her bluntness made him a little embarrassed, but he did have a purpose for being here.

"There have been many problems with my company recently, and I've known that those all were the work of Kenny."

A trace of hopeness flickered in Bryant's eyes.

His wife and daughter made a mess of his company, and now he came to her, trying to aks her to clean up the mess. Hugh! Not a chance.

She asked deliberately, "And then what?"

Bryant licked his dried lower lip, while still maintaining a smile, "Poppy, since you are so close to Kenny, help me to say something nice to him and ask him to stop his move on the Green Group!"

“Ah-ah!”

It was as if Poppy had heard a big joke, "You're hilarious; What do I have to do with your business matters. I'm not that close to him; I can't help you with this."

Bryant was a bit agitated, "Poppy, there is no need to lie to me. I've already have people investigate you and Kenny. You guys often live together, and you also live in the Murphys’ mansion. How can you say you are not that close to him? He definitely loves you and will listen to you."

Poppy rolled her eyes at him and tilted her head to one side, trying to ignore him.

The pendulum has swung back; that's exactly right!

Bryant said again, trying to fawn on her, "Poppy, my good daughter, help Dad this time. The Green Group was interfered by Dakings Group to the extent that it can't even kept running; if this continues, the consequences are unthinkable!"

"That’s your business, and it has nothing to do with me!"

In that moment, Poppy would kick Bryant when he was down; she had this mentality that when she knew he would die, she would love to watch him dying.

Bryant's face stiffened and a hint of evil fire appeared in his heart, but his reason said he must supress his personal feelings in this situation .

After calming himself down, he added.

"Poppy, I know you're mad at me, and I don't think I'm a good father. But my company is in trouble right now, and it's not just about the Greens, it's about all the families of all the staff in the whole company."

"Think about it, you can save a lot of people who are going to be laid off if you can talk to Kenny. It's a good deed and it's good for you."

He paused, "I know you are kind. You want tit-for-tat all the time just because you were bullied at home and also because of your mother’s death. But you are a good person."

"Geez!"

Poppy’s face was cold, looking at him with a snort and sneer, but her eyes grew colder, "Don't picture me as a great person; I don't care who is going to live or die. Remember how you stood by with indifference when I was about to die, I wouldn't do good deeds to you even if I wanted to do good deeds."

"Poppy, I know Hilda has done a lot of wrong things to you, but Daddy doesn't know about that, and I can't ......"

"So you're a wimp!

Mr.Bryant, I don't have the kindness that you said I have, and I won't help you, and it's no use wasting your time to talk to me."

"Are you really that cruel?"

Once again, Bryant began his drama, "You are my own blood and I'm your father, even if you don't want to admit it."

"We're bound. If there's anything that makes us misunderstand each other, we could just talk about it . Kenny will also be my son-in-law in the future; a son-in-law can't treat his father-in-law like this!"

"Are you serious about all this?"

Poppy learned how shameless he was at last and it was hereditary to be shameless. Ethel might got her shameleesness from him.

Bryant swore and even held out three fingers, "I could guarantee with my personality that everything I said sprang from the bottom of my heart."

"Don't get confused about the relationship between you and Kenny. You've never treated me like a daughter, how come you have Kenny as your son-in-law?"

Poppy recalled a time in her childhood when Ethel falsely accused her of stealing the family's money to buy food; Then she was severely lectured by Bryant, and some of his words impressed themselves on her memory for the rest of her life, which is that 'You bastard, how could I have a daughter like you.

'

Bryant knew that his drama wasn’t working, and therefore he lured her with wealth, "Poppy, I can make it up to you; you can ask what you want from me."

He looked up, at the Times Apartments, "I know you don't have any porperty yet, I'll buy you a porperty as soon as you promise to help me. Do you prefer a porperty near the law firm or do you want one with beautiful enviromen ......"

she frowned with antipathy, "If I want a house, I can afford it myself, not to mention that Kenny has said that he will give the Murphys’ mansion to me if I want it !"

"Poppy, you've said that Kenny can even give you the Murphys’ mansion, which exactly proves you are very close to him.

"Just do me this favor. The whole company won't survive if the present situation goes on."

"I'm really regretful now. I shouldn’t have treated your mother and you like that. I was possessed then so that I became obsessed with Hilda. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.!"

He said sobbingly with his red eyes, and he was about to shed tears.

Poppy still remained unmoved no matter how repentant he said he was.
