Heart Hunting novel Chapter 66

Before Poppy has any reaction, Mrs. Murphy has turned off the fire and put down the spatula. She pushes Poppy to the kitchen, and says, "go to the second floor and find Kenny. You can't go downstairs without my permission!"

Poppy looks at Mrs. Murphy's tense look. She is slightly shocked with a kind of unspeakable feeling in her heart. She turns to look at the door of the living room, with a trace of sinister in her eyes. Her reason tells her that it is definitely not the right time to have a head-on conflict with Hilda and Ethel.

Downstairs, as soon as Poppy goes to the second floor, Hilda and Ethel come in with a lot of things in their hands. Hilda says, "Mrs. Murphy, we didn't know you had discharged until we went to the hospital. These are some gifts for you. We're sorry to bother you."

Mr. Murphy sneers in her heart. Why would you come here if you really feel sorry.

"I can't take so many things from you." Mrs. Murphy has to pretend to be polite.

Hilda pulls her daughter and says, "these are some tonics Ethel bought. Please take it."

Ethel's nose is no longer covered with gauze, but it's still in the recovery period. It seems strange, but it's not so ugly as before. She steps forward and says, "Mrs. Murphy, these are my gifts for you, take it, please."

She puts the tonics on the tea table and sits down with her mother.

When she sees the glass and the fruit plate on the tea table, she asks curiously, "Mrs. Murphy, do you have other guests?"

Hilda also notices it. There is someone else here now?

Mrs. Murphy hasn't organized her words yet, but Ethel is a little anxious. She asks, "who is here?"

At this time, there is a sound of stepping from the stairs. Kenny comes downstairs, looking indifferent. When he looks at Ethel, his eyes are full of disgust. "Do I need your consent to bring my friends home?"

He said it with a blame tone, as if to say, what are you qualified to ask this?

Ethel doesn't expect Kenny to be at home. She is surprised to see him at first sight, but after listening to him, she felt aggrieved again, and her tone is much weaker. "Kenny, I didn't mean that."

Hilda hurries to help her daughter. "Don't blame Ethel. She is simple, and doesn't mean anything else."

She is simple? Kenny sneers.

He doesn't respond, just goes to his mother's side and says, "didn't I say that she was not allowed to come in again?"

Daisey, standing next to him, lowers her head down and is afraid to say anything.

Ethel thinks he is angry about the scandal, and immediately explains, "Kenny, I didn't have a facelift. Jean beat me up like that. You can't believe the social media."

At this time, Mrs. Murphy carefully looks at her nose and sneers in her heart. Ethel's nose has become different from the previous one. And she is still lying. Kenny definitely can't be with this hypocritical woman.

When she is about to ask Daisey to send them away, Kenny stares at Ethel. "It's nothing to do with me whether you have a facelift or not."

"I... I just want to make it clear." Ethel lowers her head in grievance. She always act like the weak one when facing Kenny.

Kenny doesn't take that, and his eyes show a sense of alienation. "It has nothing to do with you whoever I am close to."

He has never said so plainly to her. The gap in her heart makes her speechless.
