Heart Hunting

Chapter 54

In Alva Private Hospital-

Hilda inserts a bunch of white roses into the vase and says, "Ethel, looks like you're recovering well."

But Ethel doesn't think so. "My nose looks ugly."

Since her grafted cartilage was broken, and after the prosthesis was removed, her nose looks

shapeless, and there is still a bruise on it.

Hilda sits down and comforts Ethel. "What's the hurry? Now the technology is so advanced. The

doctors also said that they can do the repair operations after detumescence."

When talking about this topic, she feels bored and changes the topic. "Mom, why do you come alone,

where's my dad?"

When it comes to this, Hilda complains, "who knows what your father is doing? He said that the

company was busy, and that the company was going to open a new project. He come home late during

these days."

"Is he really so busy?" Ethel murmurs.

Hilda's face suddenly turns gloomy, and she says in a cruel voice, "your father's best to be well-

behaved. If I find any clues that he..."

She's not as stupid as her daughter. If Bryant dare to cheat on her, she'll kick him out and kill the one

who hooks up with him.

Ethel looks at her mother's terrifying eyes, and she says with a little scared, "our company is a big

enterprise, and it's normal for dad to be busy. After all, he doesn't have a right-hand man!"

"Whatever, we almost forget about the business." Hilda looks at her daughter with serious and says,

"Ethel, your chance is here!"

Her words inspires Ethel to look at her with a little expectation, "what is it?"

"I've heard that Mrs. Murphy is hospitalized due to a car accident. Now it's the time when she needs to

be taken care of. And that is your chance." Hilda's eyes are full of a light of calculating.

For Kenny, she doesn't expect her daughter to have any trump card. But Mrs. Murphy is simple in heart

and easy to approach, so it is right to get on well with her.

Ethel doesn't speak for a while, and she starts to think. Is this really an opportunity? She has set off

such a big scandal before. Even herself has no expectation for this, let alone what Mrs. Murphy will

think of her.

"Are you listening to me?"

"Yes, I'm listening, but I just think it's difficult." She doesn't have much confidence in herself now.

Hilda holds Ethel's hands as if to give her strength. She says, "Ethel, you have to show yourself well in

front of Mrs. Murphy. It's better to make her inseparable from you."

Hilda is so calculative. She thinks, Kenny has no father since he was a child. He is raised up by her Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

mother alone. So he is filial to Mrs. Murphy most. As long as Mrs. Murphy likes Ethel, there will be no

difficulty.

After her mother's "brainwashing", Ethel cheers herself up. Who never makes a fool of himself or

herself? These memories will all fade with time.

But then she thinks of her face again, "Mom, my nose hasn't been repaired yet. Wouldn't it be too ugly

to see Mrs. Murphy like this?"

"At present, Mrs. Murphy will only be polite to you. Though she may not be at your side, but anyway,

you should get close to her first. We'll visit her tomorrow." Hilda's analysis seems quite reasonable.

"Then I want to discharge now." Ethel says.

Hilda gives Ethel a supercilious look. "What's the hurry?"

"You make me itching to leave the hospital." Her face swelling has been reduced, and now the key is

her nose.

"It's useless to leave the hospital now. Just take a good rest tonight. And tomorrow we will visit Mrs.

Murphy."

"Fine!" Ethel chooses to compromise. She was just so hotheaded that she made such a big mistake.

Thinking of this, she sighs and thinks of another person.

In her fierce eyes, Ethel asks, "mom, you said you would deal with Jean. How is it going now?"

Hilda sneers, and vicious light shows up in her eyes. She replies, "don't worry, she's just a little fish.

She can't run away. I don't believe that she can be more difficult to deal with than Poppy that little

bitch!"

When it comes to Poppy, Ethel feels cold from the bottom of her heart. Although she hasn't seen Poppy

for five years, she still has a psychological reaction to her "glorious deeds".

Despite her uneasiness, she adds, "mom, you always tell me to easy down, but do you really start to

deal with Jean?"

"The bait is in place, just wait for her to get hooked, and if she does, I'll ruin her right away." Hilda says,

her eyes become gloomy, and the creepy light in her eyes is just like a ghostly hand that would rip off a

man's throat. "She wants to rob a man from you? She needs to weight up her decision first."

"What are you going to do with her?" Ethel wonders, what's the bait her mother said? And what does

she mean by "get hooked"?

Hilda smiles lightly. "Don't worry. It will be a great gift for you. The process is not important, just wait to

see the result."

"How long will it take?" Ethel is looking forward to it.

"Don't be in a hurry. You need to be patient when fishing for big fish."

"All right!"

The gorgeous sunset is still brilliant. Ethel squints, then looks at the sunset. A thought rises from her

heart, she asks, "mom, have you found that bitch? We haven't got any news of her for more than a

year. Would she screw us?"

The Greens are always on guard against Poppy, because What she has done before is too terrifying. If

she comes back, then there will be no peace and quiet in their home.

When Ethel mentions this, Hilda shows a vicious look. "There's no news yet, but I've sent people to

investigate, that little bitch should still be abroad. I've investigated the list of recent flights, and there's

no name for her."

Ethel breaths a sigh of relief. "That's good."

Hilda says, "I will never let her come back alive. If she dare to come back, I will make her life worse

than her mother!"
