Chapter 1026 Visits from the Worthless The next day, we set off precisely at ten o'clock to return to Foswood. Once we arrived, we headed straight to the airport to drop them off. The gifts from last night turned out to be perfect.
They both said they would givea definite answer after returning.
Fred said it wouldn't be long before he cto meet Noah to discuss the factory construction. I told him that it would be no problem.

I looked at Arnold. "How did you know we were back?" He nonchalantly said, "Telepathy, I guess." Lauren smiled. "Telepathy indeed. If Atlas finds out, he'll give you a piece of his mind." "I'm not afraid of him." He seemed defiant as he looked at me. "Con, I'll take you all out to eat something delicious." Lauren laughed even more. "We should be the ones taking you to a meal." Just then, Carol walked in. "Ms. Chloe, Ms. Poppy is here to see you." I raised an eyebrow. Things were getting out of hand. We had just returned, and a bunch of worthless people had showed up. "Poppy?" I said.
Carol nodded.
Arnold asked, "Who's Poppy?" Lauren whispered, "A celebrity." Arnold turned toand asked doubtfully, "How do you even know someone like her?" I shrugged, then said to Carol, "Let her in." Carol walked in with Poppy, fully dressed in a hat, mask, and big sunglasses. It was the standard outfit for a celebrity.
Arnold burst into laughter as soon as he saw her dressed like that.
He casually commented, "Am I the weird one here or are celebrities weird? Do you really have so many fans in Foswood? Aren't you het in that outfit? You probably need to watch out for heat rash." His words almost made Lauren burst into laughter.
Poppy instantly stiffened as she looked at Arnold. After all, this was my office. She couldn't say anything, even if she was displeased.
I quickly greeted her. "When did you get to Foswood, Ms. Poppy?" "I cback a few days ago, but I've been busy with work. I didn't have tto visit you." She smiled as she took off her gear. "I finally had sttoday, so I cto see you. Long tno see." The way she said it made it seem like we were close.

I was a little surprised, and Lauren was too. She grabbed Arnold andh asked, "What? Do you have a target now? This is absurd. Are you trying to use lunch as an excuse to see her?"
Arnold put a charming expression on his face and said mischievously, "No way. Honest to goodness. No one is more important than my friends." "Enough. You're being silly," I said with a smile. I looked at Poppy and said, "If you don't mind, you can join us for lunch." Poppy immediately responded graciously. "Of course I wouldn't mind. Thank you for the invitation."
"Great!" I turned to Arnold. "Let's go! By the way, Arnold, Hana is on m old Hana is on m vacation. She went back to visit her family." "What? She went back to Yare?" he said.
"What did you say?" I immediately asked Arnold. "Where did you say Hana went back to?" Arnold looked atskeptically and asked, "Didn't you know Hana's from Yare?" I was a little uneasy. "Hana's from Yare?"
