Heart Hunting

Chapter 33

Hilda sees her daughter hang up the phone, and says deliberately, "I've told you so, that you would get

the cheese. You just didn't listen to me.” She has showed her mood on her face.

Ethel leans down there in despair. Now even Mrs. Murphy is indifferent to her. Her future days are

going to be hard!

Hilda goes to her side and continues to brainwash her. "When your face recovers, what kind of man

can't you have? Even Kenny will also be fascinated by you!”

Ethel holds her mother's hand like holding the only life-saving straw. "Mom, even Mrs. Murphy ignores

me. What can I do?”

She is so afraid. In recent years, she has been working hard to get closer to Mrs. Murphy, but after this

thing, it seems that all her efforts are wasted.

Hilda cools her eyes, she thinks for a long while before she says, "Mrs. Murphy is sentimental. You just

have to coax her more in the future!”

There is a cold light of calculation in her eyes, and Hilda raises a treacherous smile.

Ethel is disoriented. After listening to her mother's words, she still feels uneasy . "Mom, will it work?”

"Mrs. Murphy is Kenny's mother. As long as she is on your side, he should be nicer to you for his

mother's sake.”

Hilda has planned it well. If Ethel wants to make Kenny accept her, she has to get on well with Mrs.

Murphy.

Ethel thinks it's reasonable, but she gets worried again. "How can I get close to Mrs. Murphy? I can't

even get into their house now.”

Hilda frowns, “are you a idiot? Will Mrs. Murphy not go out?”

Ethel hesitates for a moment and then agrees with her mother. A person can stay at home for one or

two days, but there is always time to go out.

She raises a deep smile, like a witch waiting for the prey to come to her.

"Ethel, as long as we do everything by hook or by crook, no matter how difficult the process is, we can

achieve our goal in the end.”

“I see.” After thinking and listening so much, Ethel knows what to do next. But she won't be relieved

from anxiety if Jean is still there.

Sheila looks at the treacherous expression of her mother and sister. She is afraid to participate in their

conversation, for fear that she might accidentally reveals the thing of her sister Poppy.

Hilda looks back at the little girl on the sofa and calls her, "Sheila, Sheila, what are you thinking?”

Ethel looks scornful. "She is not silly because of studying, right?”

"Ethel, how could you say that to your sister!” Hilda casts a look at her, and when she turns her eyes to

Sheila, her tone softens a lot. "Sheila, what are you thinking so ecstatically?”

"Nothing. The professor assign a paper for us. I was thinking about the subject.” Sheila hides her

thinking. Her eyes are so clear that she doesn't look like to be lying at all.

Hilda puts her heart at rest and says, "Sheila, I hope you study hard. Don't be like your sister. She

didn't even finish her college. You need to work harder. Our family will depend on you, you know?”

“I see.” Sheila responds absently.

Ethel is lying on the bed. She retorts to her mother, "Mom, am I so useless in your eyes?”

"How dare you ask me that? You dropped out of College. If our family didn't have Sheila, we don't even

have a college student.” She doesn't want to talk about what Ethel had done before.

Ethel knows she's in the wrong. She can't refute her mother, so she just transfers her resentment to her

sister. "What's the benefit of learning well? You have to work after graduate anyway. It's better to have

a beautiful face and figure, and marry into a rich family directly. I won't have to worry about life.”

Sheila is particularly disgusted with what Ethel said. "The most important thing for women now is

economic independence. Your idea has been abandoned.”

"Economic independence? In the end, you still have to live with a man." Ethel casually observes her

face. "Your face is similar to mine, that is, your nose is too flat, your eyes are too small. You'd better

have a facelift. After that, you will become beautiful, and you will surely be able to attract men.”

"Ethel, I don't want my nose to be broken like you by someone and be laughed at.” Sheila frowns in

disgust. She turns her head around to ignores Ethel.

"Sheila, I'm your elder sister. How could you say that?”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
