Chapter 28
"What are you doing?" Mrs. Murphy, who heard the noise, runs over at once, she pushes open the door. When she sees the scene in front of her, she obviously has a pause. Kenny frowns a little bit when he hears his mother's voice. Poppy has pushed him away and asks Mrs. Murphy deliberately, "Mrs. Murphy, you are here to catch mice, aren't you?" "Get up! You this big fat rat." Mrs. Murphy, with her arms akimbo, yells at her son.
"Mom, it's my private life. Can you stay out of it?" Kenny thinks it's strange that his mother didn't meddle so much with the women who had been hooking up with him before. Why is she different for Poppy?
"I won't interfere you with other women, but not her." Mrs. Murphy sees that Kenny doesn't move, she use her trump card. "You don't want to go, do you? Then I'll bring my pillow and sleep with the little fox." Gosh!
Kenny is completely speechless to his mother.
Mrs. Murphy leaves with her son and keeps saying, "this little fox is poisonous. You'd better stay away from her!"
When they get to the door, Mrs. Murphy says to poppy when closing the door, "little fox, don't forget to lock the door. If he harasses you in the middle of the night, call me, I'll fix him!"
"OK." Poppy leans on the edge of the bed, and answers lazily.
Although Kenny's way of getting along with his mother is a bit humorous, it is also a manifestation of happiness.
...
The next day, countless golden morning light explodes from the clouds.
After waking up, Poppy takes out her mobile phone at the first time. She opens the web page, and before she types the key words, there already jump out several key words about Ethel. #Ethel changes to a pig like face# #the story of two women and one man, what a chaos# and so on.
Poppy clicks one of the tweets about Ethel, and the comments below makes her laugh.
"At first glance, I know that Ethel definitely had a plastic surgery, does a rich lady also need to be an Internet celebrity?"
"She had a plastic surgery, and she still dare to fight for men? How brave! Does she really want to have a pig face?"
"This pig face is so funny. Who has the fight video? I'll buy it at a high price."
"Who would like to go to the hospital to watch the pig face?"
"So shame! I feel shame as a woman because of her."
Poppy keeps sliding down and reads carefully. It's a beautiful morning for her.
In addition to Ethel's plastic surgery and fight, others dug out her past dark history. Some plastic surgery hospitals even specially advertised the contrast before and after Ethel's plastic surgery in order to attract customers. Nowadays, online bystanders are most interested in the gossip about the face lifting of rich people and competing for men. Two of Ethel's entries have occupied the top ten of the hot search.
"Interesting!" Poppy is gloating. If Ethel knows that she has became a network celebrity because of that this morning, what would she think?
After washing, Poppy goes downstairs like nothing has happened. The fragrance of noodles comes out of the dining room. When she sees Mrs. Murphy, she greets her delightedly, "good morning, Mrs. Murphy!" "Well, I didn't prepare your breakfast!" Mrs. Murphy says that deliberately.
"Never mind, I've always ate your son's share." she sits down, then takes an empty bowl and spoons the chicken porridge.
Mrs. Murphy sits down opposite to her and stares at her face.
Poppy feels that she was being stared at. She touches her face and asks strangely, "is my face not clean?"
Mrs. Murphy asks back seriously, "little fox, honestly, do you ever had a face-lifting?"
Poppy is surprised that Mrs. Murphy would ask this question, but she responds quickly and deliberately teases her, "well, yes, my eyes had canthal plasty, my nose had auto-graft, my cheekbones are cut a little, my whole face is filled with hyaluronic acid, and even my mouth had lip injections. Are you satisfied?"
Mrs. Murphy listens to her so carefully, and immediately believes, "you, you..."
She is terrified. Seeing Kenny coming in, she grabs him and says, "Kenny, you can't be with this little fox."
"Why?" Seems his mother scares by Poppy again.
The perpetrator Poppy is still at breakfast, and says nothing.
"She had facelift. She may look so ugly at first."
Facelift?
Kenny looks at Poppy, who is quietly eating breakfast. "Mom, you're being cheated by her."
"What?" Mrs. Murphy looks confused. "What do you mean?"
Kenny comes to Poppy and sits down. He puts his hand on her face and pinches it. He rubs her face and pinches her nose. "Mom, no one would admit that if she really had a facelift. Do you think a person who has had a facelift would be like this?" Poppy pats his hand away. "Kenny, don't go too far."
Mrs. Murphy thinks it is reasonable when she hears that. She goes over and pinches Poppy's nose. There are no hard things in it, and the nose is not crooked. "Little fox, why do you cheat me?"
Poppy smiles, "I was just saying. Who knows you would believe it."
Mr. Murphy points at her, "you have no courtesy. Is there no one teaching you about courtesy?"
Poppy's eyes are full of a wry smile. Her mother died when she was ten years old. And her father doesn't care her at all. No one have really taught her about courtesy.
She disguises her sadness and goes on eating breakfast.
Mrs. Murphy thinks that Poppy didn't mean any harm, so she stops the topic, goes into the kitchen and takes out the hidden gossip magazine. And calls Kenny as if she has found a new world. "Kenny, come to have a look." Kenny turns it open and is shocked. He says, "What the hell! Is that Ethel?"
His reaction is so great that even Poppy looks up at him and laughs.
Is that the reaction of all the people who see the pictures?
"Yeah, it turns out Ethel had a facelift. Kenny, fortunately, you don't like her." Mrs. Murphy seems still a little worried. She got along well with Ethel before, and was almost fooled by her.
Why is she so ugly?" Kenny seems to think of something. He looks at Poppy.
"Kenny, people thought that she is your girlfriend. Don't you need to deal with it?"
"I'll let Aaron handle it. You can have breakfast first!" Kenny comforts his mother.
Kenny calls Aaron as soon as he sits down.
"Let the PR department make a statement to clarify that Ethel and I are not boyfriend and girlfriend. In addition, the Greens and Dakings Group are only cooperative."
"Yes, Mr. Murphy!"
After hanging up, Mrs. Murphy asks with concern, "how's it?"
"Don't worry, I won't let you down."
"Kenny, when you look for a girlfriend, you must polish your eyes, and don't look for a plastic face." Mrs. Murphy sighs, what kind of world is this? Even faces are fake, then what's real? She takes a look at Poppy.
Kenny takes the opportunity to say, "Mom, what do you think of the woman in front of you?"
Mrs. Murphy shakes her head. "this little fox is too demon for you."
Poppy, who is having breakfast, also replies, "Mrs. Murphy, although your food is delicious, you can't bribe me with it. I won't be into to your son."
"I won't like you either." Mrs. Murphy gets angry.
Looking at the way they getting along with each other, Kenny suddenly feels, it's not bad like that!
