章 46: Bad News

[Mandy's Diary Today]

            Just kill me, anyone, please. I held my breath as I sat at the large round dining table attended by the big Bedingtons. My face was red like the boiled crab that had not been seasoned. I've been keeping my eyes looking down, at my food as if the food is talking to me. I felt bad for ignoring Candice's invitation to meet her boyfriend. I swear, if I could, I'd rather go with Candice to meet Niklaus than meet She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

            "Mandy."

            My stomach suddenly twitched when I got a call from Grandma Mag. I rolled my eyes, and returned the call with a big smile, trying to be friendly.

            "What have you been doing since you lived with my grandson?" Grandma Mag stabbed a dagger right through my heart through her gaze, making me practically gulp with difficulty.
