Heart Hunting novel Chapter 113

The Greens house

Incidents happened frequently in the Green Group recently, as if the company were put a hex on. Bryant thought about the reason for this and felt that there must be someone deliberately impeding his company’s development,and the final investigation results proved his suspicion. It was Dakings Group that manipulated the whole thing.

He did not provoke Poppy recently; so why did Dakings Group interrupt and even try to destory his company? Bryant thought of Hilda all of a sudden, and wondered if she had done something irritating to the Murphys.

In the afternoon, he came home infurious.

Ethel was sitting on the couch watching TV. When she saw her father not in a good mood, she didn't dare to mess with him. But he talked to her first, "Where's your mother?"

"She's out shopping with Sheila and hasn't come back yet."

Ethel told him as it was.

Bryant asked again.

"Ethel, answered me a question honestly. Is your mother up to something recently?"

"What are you talking about?"

Although Ethel didn't understand his father’s words, she felt a bit guilty somehow.

"The Green Group has been frequently suppressed by Dakings Group recently. We are facing faliures in many projects and if this continues, the Green Group will go bankrupt."

Bryant’s brows furrowed with anxiety.

"I ...... I don't know. Was it that bitch who was responsible for all the mess?"

Ethel's eyes darted around, just not daring to look at her father.

"No, if it is she who is repsonsible, she would have been as straightforward with me as she was last time. So this time Dakings Group was definitely not doing this for her."

"That's not necessarily true, that bitch is plaguing Kenny right now. It's possible she's fanning the flames in front of Kenny ......"

Ethel's voice was getting lower and lower, almost out of breath under the pressure from his father's gaze.

"Ethel, are you even trying to lie to your Dad now?" Bryant asked

“I dare not,” Ethel replied

Ethel lowered her head, she hesitated over telling his father what she had done severa days before.

"Do you realize that the company will go bankrupt if we keep going like this?"

Bryant hadn't slept well for the past few days because of what was happening in the company.

“Bankruptcy…” Ethel mumbled.

She didn't know things would turn out to be so serious.

After a struggle in her mind, Ethel mumbled,

"Mom told me to conceive Kenny's child by whatever means. Once I conceive his child, he'll have to marry me for sure. So I went to him the other night, made a meal for him and ......"

"And then what?" Bryant asked.

Bryant had a bad feeling in his heart.

Ethel continued, "Mom gave me a bottle of potion and I sprinkled it in the meal, but I got kicked out before I saw Kenny had the meal; so it's possible that they had the meal later and found out it was me who made that happen. Therefore the Murphys ......"

"Idiots, how could you come up with such a stupid idea?"

Bryant’s face turned iron green. No wonder Kenny would be so angry and tried to destroy the Green Group.

“Pia!”

Bryant was so angry that he slapped Ethel.

"Dad, you just slap me?" Ethel asked

Ethel covered her face with her hand and looked at her father in disbelief. The tingling sensation on her cheek made her realize the reality.

Bryant shuddered with anger and scolded Ethel,

"If it wasn't for you, Kenny wouldn't have treated the Green Group like this. He has made the Green Group failed in the only one project we got . "

Just then, Hilda and Sheila came back from shopping and saw the scene at home.

Hilda was furious and put down her things, rushing straight over to Bryant, "Bryant, why are you doing to my daughter?"

Seeing her mother returned, Ethel cried and hid behind her mother, “Ah ...... mom, dad hit me ......"
