Chapter 404: Grandma And Grandpa Hale

The three children working on the LEGO castle heard some thuds and other loud noises coming from downstairs but nobody was crying so they ignored it.

"This has to be the worst babysitter we've ever had," Violet sighed as she put together a turret.

"Probably," her twin agreed. "I hope Aunt Jen and Uncle Cameron come back soon."

They all turned toward the digital clock in the room. It was only 9:02 PM and the party wasn't supposed to be over until 10. It would be a while yet.

"I hope Mom and Dad don't run into Grandma and Grandpa Hale," she said worriedly.

Violet had been thinking about this a lot since she found out the party was to celebrate Hale Investments' 100th anniversary. The company had their last name on it so it had obviously been in the family for a long time.
