Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 73

Wendy had to go to work in the afternoon. It was okay to have lunch with them. So they left together.

After the three girl left, Mr. Malcolm and other three people quickly picked up their things and left. Especially, Abner, who was hurried to the court for review. So they also said goodbye to each other.

After her leg injury, Poppi took a rest for a long time. That afternoon, she followed Malcolm to visit her grandma.

Cora should have showed up in the car at the time she showed up, sitting in the passenger seat, with a calm expression that would make her shocked even by the lighting and thunder.

While driving the car carefully, Sean didn't utter a single word.

And for Malcolm, he closed his eyes for rest, refusing to be disturbed.

"What?" Poppi counted and it was her last time to heave a thirty-five sigh. That's so boring! boring!

"If you feel bored, go down the mountain by yourself and run all the way up the mountain." Malcolm opened his eyes slightly and took a look at Poppi.

"You know it's impossible." Poppi stuck out her tongue and said, "but I really feel bored. Would you please at least have a word with me! I don't want a one-man show. "

"You often do that, don't you?" Malcolm said indifferently, "Those days in the hospital, your legs were broken, but your talking was annoying."

"I will listen to the song," Poppi twitched her mouth and took out the phone that she soaked in water. Then she put on the earphone. When she was about to listen to the earphone, something occurred to her all of a sudden. Then she turned her head and asked, "Mr. Malcolm, do you want to listen to music?"

Holding the earphone on her right hand, Poppi looked at Malcolm playfully. Malcolm took a look at the earphone. Before he said whether he should listen to it or not, Poppi had taken the initiative to send one to him and put it in his ear. "It sounds so good," she said.

When the soothing foreplay sounded, Poppi had already raised the corners of her mouth and swayed with the music.

Malcolm licked his lips. The song 'at least you' was playing again. He still remembered what Poppi looked like when she sang it last time. Who was like a beautiful star which attracted people deeply.

He was so quiet that he didn't move any more. He put on the earphone and went on listening to the music with Poppi. From the rearview mirror, Cora saw the two of them looked like a couple coming out of a picture, wonderful and well matched.

Poppi listened to the song quietly and safe all the way. It was not until they almost got off the car that she reluctantly took back the earphones. Just when she was taking it back, she unintentionally saw a red mark on the left wrist of Malcolm. She was shocked and asked hastily, "Malcolm, is your wrist broken?"

"What?" When he saw where Poppi was staring at, he quickly retracted his hand and took off the earphone with his right hand awkwardly. Then he snorted and said, "no, you made a mistake."

Then, Sean stopped the car. Malcolm got off from the car from the right side.

Poppi stuck out her tongue and said, "I just want to do this out of good will but misunderstood you."

"Grandma! Grandma, I'm coming to see you! " As soon as they entered the gate of the villa, Poppi shouted again, while looking around for the old lady, "did grandma hide it?"

"You are so childish!" The old lady came down from the second floor and said to Malcolm as if she didn't notice what Poppi was doing, "come here, Mr. Malcolm! Let me have a good look at you. "

"Grandma, don't you want to take a look at me?" "Long time no see!" Poppi came close to the old lady and complained.

"You know that?" The old lady was not happy. "You don't have to come here by yourself and even took my Cora away. What a bad turtle!"

With a sigh, Poppi held her grandma in her arms and smiled, "grandma, now I am back! Are you happy now? "

The old lady raised her head proudly, trying her best to hold back a smile. "If the little turtle goes to cook dinner again, I will be happier."

"Got it!" Poppi agreed directly and put down her bag. She rolled up her sleeves and asked, "what would you like to eat, grandma?"

"Have some light food." The old lady finally opened her mouth in a kind manner. She took a look at Malcolm and said, "Dear grandson, is that okay?"

"It's up to you, grandma."

Poppi nodded her head and looked at Malcolm. They smiled and went to the kitchen.

The old lady sensed something different between them. Her wrinkled face showed a smile. She patted him on his chest and said, "Malcolm, do you want to help?"

"Well… I won't go with her. " Said Malcolm, covering his mouth smilingly.

The old lady couldn't help but laugh. "Malcolm, I'm going to see my great-grandson soon, it's right?"

Malcolm was in a daze for a moment. "may you won't see it in a short period of time."

There was a cunning light flashed through the old lady's eyes, just like what she had done to Poppi with her fox like smile. Malcolm was startled and quickly asked, "what's wrong?"

"You even don't know how to get rid of me this time. It's worth it!" As she stepped towards the sofa, she continued, "it doesn't matter if I can't see it for a short time. At least once you make a decision, there will be hope."
