Heart Hunting novel Chapter 74

"It's impossible. she looked pale and she covered her stomach with her hands. She seemed very uncomfortable. It must be your fault!" Mrs. Murphy is still so angry.

Kenny shakes his head, and he doesn't know what to explain. Since she doesn't believe it, he can call Poppy.

He makes the phone call hands-free on purpose, and waiting with his mother for Poppy to answer the phone. Mrs. Murphy suddenly cries again. "Kenny, I always thought that you are quite responsible. But how could you do that to your baby? That's my grandchild! It's a life!"

Kenny doesn't speak anything. He just waits patiently for Poppy to answer the phone.

Poppy is still sleeping. She answers the phone in a daze, and hears the crying noise coming from the phone. She gets shocked.

She looks at the caller ID in the phone, Kenny?

So the crying noise is from...Mrs. Murphy?

Kenny says seriously, "Poppy, tell my mother what's going on?"

"What?" Poppy is confused. Listening to Mrs. Murphy crying all the time, she asks curiously, "what's the matter with your mother?"

"What do you think? It's all because of you!" Kenny feels a little annoyed. The most innocent one should be himself, OK?

"Poppy, I'm scolding this bastard for you. Don't be afraid to say it out. Did he force you to abort your baby?"

Abortion?

Poppy finally thinks of the joke she made with Mrs. Murphy when she was in the hospital. "You really went to Kenny for that?"

"Of course. He made me lose a grandchild. I must come to him." Mrs. Murphy's voice is a little hoarse. It seems that she has cried for a long time.

Poppy finally can't help laughing. She thinks Mrs. Murphy is so interesting. She's just joking with her. How could she take it seriously?

Hearing her laughter, Mrs. Murphy hesitates a little, "why are you stll laughing? You just had an abortion."

"Mrs.Murphy, that was just a kidding. I didn't expect you to take it seriously." Poppy has ignored one thing, that Mrs. Murphy is so naive that she would believe almost anything Poppy says.

What?!

Mr. Murphy is stunned, and she gets very angry when she realizes the truth. "How can you joke about this kind of thing? And why were you in the hospital exactly?"

Poppy replies, "I were there just because I had a stomachache. Just think about my relationship with Kenny. How would it be possible for me to have a baby with him. "

Mrs. Murphy takes a look at Kenny. Poppy has made it very clear that Kenny hasn't conquered her yet.

Mrs. Murphy keeps silent for a long while. Poppy continues, "so, I was just kidding. I didn't expect you to take it seriously."

"You little liar, do you know how many tears I shed and how long I scolded Kenny? You're so heartless. How would my son like a woman like you, hum! Be careful I let Kenny give up on you. " Mrs. Murphy seems so proud to say the last words.

"I don't care. He'd better not bother me."

"You... I... I won't cook delicious food for you!" Mrs. Murphy can only threaten her with that.

"Well, if something doesn't belong to me, it doesn't belong to me.I won't insist on it."

Mrs. Murphy can't bear to hear that. She changes her mind. "I'm just kidding. Come to my house again, and I'll make you delicious food."

Poppy smiles and thinks, Mrs. Murphy is really simple and kind.

Mrs. Murphy returns the phone to Kenny. Kenny then asks, "how is your stomach now? Are you all right?"

Poppy responds lightly, "it's just an old problem. I'll be fine after a rest."

"Have you asked for leave?"

"I was sleeping at home, but you woke me up." There is a sense of complaining in Poppy’s voice.

"Then go to sleep now. Bye."

Kenny hangs out the phone, and Mrs. Murphy is still watching at him.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Kenny asks.

"That should be my question to you." Mrs. Murphy answers.

"What?” Kenny is confused.

Daisy at the side can't help smiling, she thinks, Mrs. Murphy must be urging him to marry!

"You can't even handle a girl." Mrs. Murphy's mood fluctuates a few time today. But it's also because of that, her desire to have a grandchild is even more strong.

Kenny is speechless. "Mom, she's special." He has been flirting with her for so long, but still can't get her.

Mrs. Murphy looks down on him. "That's because you're incapable." she sighs and shakes her head. "How could I have given birth to such a stupid son?"

Kenny feels a little helpless. He is so smart. Why would he be stupid in his mother opinion?

"Mom, you also said that she's a little fox. She's too cunning, It's not that I'm stupid!"

"If you are smart, you'd have handled her. You've taken her home so many times, and not even one time you succeed?"

Mrs. Murphy thought they had already had sex. But the result is disappointing.

Daisy is still aside. She immediately turns her eyes to look away after Kenny looks at her.

Kenny lowers his voice a little bit. "Mom, there's someone else. Can you save some dignity for me?"

Mrs. Murphy always regards Daisy as her family. She says, "can dignity be eaten? You can save your dignity if you can eat it."

Kenny feels depressed.

Mrs. Murphy looks at the time and says, "I'm going home. It's still early, I'm going to buy crucian carp and yam for soup

“I don’t like fish soup.”

"Did I say it's for you?"

Kenny sighs, that’s how his mother treats him!

"It's for Poppy. Didn't she say that she had a stomachache? It's good for her to have some fish soup," Mrs. Murphy thinks of Poppy's pale face. "She's very weak today. She can't go out. You can come back home early and take the soup to her."

He's a delivery guy now?

"Mom, since when did you treat her so well?" Mrs. Murphy didn't like her before.

Mrs. Murphy doesn't admit it. She rolls her eyes and says, "I don't care about her. I do it for you, and for my grandchild. It's you who wants to sleep with her. She's not well now. How can I have a grandchild in that case?"

Kenny smiles. His mother is fun and cute.
