Chapter 68: Chapter 68

"If you don't sit there, I will bully your Mommy when you're in school," Vernon threatened. 

Mackie was shocked by Uncle Vernon's threat as if she got struck by a giant thunder in a clear sky. She always thought she would protect her Mommy every time, but she forgot that she had to go to school!

"T—Then, Mackie will not go to school!"

"Of course, you can't, Mackie," Chloe chuckled and patted Mackie's hair. "School is very important, remember? You can't be smart if you're not going to school."

"But…" Mackie was conflicted. This thing was more complicated than what her little mind could comprehend. 

"Well, if you're obedient, then I will be obedient too. I won't bully your mommy while you're in school, okay?" Vernon negotiated.

Mackie looked at her Mommy, smiling, and then at Uncle Vernon, "P—Promise?"

"Promise."
