Beyond the Divorce

I turned around and saw a fully disguised woman standing not far from our car, looking at me. I was unsure if she was calling me, so I glanced around, but there was no one else. Ardie also turned around to look. The woman immediately took off her mask and sunglasses. It was Poppy.

Mask, hat, big sunglasses. That was the standard attire for a celebrity. I had completely forgotten about it.

I didn't expect to meet her here. I chuckled lightly and said, "Poppy?"

She immediately walked over enthusiastically, "Oh, what a coincidence to bump into you here. You're in Solaris, too?" She asked me while glancing at Ardie.

I looked at her indifferently and said, "Yes, I'm here for some business."

"I really didn't expect this. I thought I was seeing things." Poppy was enthusiastic, occasionally glancing at Ardie.

Seeing my indifferent attitude, Ardie didn't introduce himself, knowing that I didn't have a favorable impression of her. He whispered, "I'll wait for you in the car."

Then he went straight to the car.

"Do you often come to Solaris?" I asked casually.

"Not really. I come back to Solaris when I have no work. After all, my network is here." She said with a proud smile, "How about staying for a few days? Otherwise, let's have dinner together tonight. I see you have a friend for lunch."
