Heart Hunting novel Chapter 12

The Incense Honey Lake-

The majestic building is soaked by moonlight. The European style building looks more graceful and tender in the silver light.

The square building radiates a Chinese style. The eave is carved with dragons, reflecting its luxury and high style.

The iron gate with gilded patterns slowly opens as a maybach approaches.

Kenny parks his car, puts his suit on his arm and walks into the house.

Ethel was chatting with Mrs. Murphy at first. When she hears the footsteps, she looks up and sees Kenny coming in. Her expression becomes more tender. She goes up to take Kenny's coat and asks, "have you had your dinner?"

Kenny ignores her words and goes straight in.

Mrs. Murphy steps forward, but she finds out the red lip print on Kenny's shirt. She questions, "Kenny, which bitch are you hooking up with outside?"

Ethel also sees the lip print on his shirt at this time. Her eyes are full of sadness, and she lowers her head like she is hurt.

Kenny goes inside without saying anything. But Mrs. Murphy follows him, she says with a tone of reproach, "Kenny, you've already had a girlfriend. How can you philander outside? You have to be responsible for Ethel. You can't make her sad."

"Auntie, it doesn't matter. I know Kenny is just playing. Don't blame him!" Ethel says in a low voice, as if she is really a victim.

Kenny sneers, "Mom, Ethel is not my girlfriend. I have never touched her. And I have never acknowledged who my girlfriend is."

His words break the grievance on Ethel's face and makes her ashamed. Ethel then shows a embarrassed look.

Mrs. Murphy's eyes flash a bit blank. She looks at Ethel and her son. Then she retorts, "but you haven't denied it!"

Kenny can't rebut for a little while, and then he puts his hand on Mrs. Murphy's shoulder. "Mom, you are too simple. She cheats you."

"I..."

Mrs. Murphy still wants to say something else, but Kenny interrupts, "Daisey, see off the guest. Besides, don't let any irrelevant outsiders in from now on!"

Daisey, the servant, steps forward and looks at Mrs. Murphy in embarrassment.

Ethel feels so anxious. She hurries forward and looks pitifully at Mrs. Murphy. "Auntie, please help me!"

Mrs. Murphy is like a sandwich biscuit between them. She is in a dilemma. One is her son, the other is the future daughter-in-law she likes. How should she choose?

Kenny's attitude is firm, and his eyes and expression shows a feeling of irresistible. Mrs. Murphy's inner swing scales eventually incline to her son's side.

She waves her hand, and says, "Fine, Daisey, see off the guest!"
