Chapter 28: Mrs. March's Promise

Marielle could not understand what was happening. How could her grandmother’s friend know Kiara? How well did her grandmother know this Mrs. March on the other hand?

“Mrs. March is a friend of my aunt,” Kiara announced with a smile.

Marielle frowned at Mrs. March in confusion.

“Yes, I love clothes designing and I’ve worked with Kiara’s aunt for years,” Mrs said contentedly as she descended the stairs.

“Oh, so how do you know my grandmother?” Marielle asked, still feeling shocked and confused. Her grandmother knew that Kiara’s aunt delved in fortune-telling. So why would her grandmother have a friend in common with Kiara’s Aunt Sheena? She was dangerous company as Clifford had indicated.

“But tell me why you were looking for a spirit inside of Marielle’s dolls?” Kiara asked again. She stood next to Kiara with her hands on her hips.

“Oh, remember that night when you told about rumors about certain people being vampires?” Marielle asked as she turned to face Kiara.
