"Whaaa! Uncle is the best!" Mackie opened her short arms and hugged Vernon's neck. "Thank you, Uncle!"
Vernon placed his palm on Mackie's back and patted her a few times, "You're welcome. Now go and focus watching your play. You'll see how good you're playing as the Big Bad wolf."
Thus, Mackie released her arms around her Uncle's neck. She sat on the bed with a big bucket of popcorn on her lap and started watching while eating the caramel popcorn.
Chloe looked at Vernon and whispered so she wouldn't disturb her daughter, "How did you get the recording?" Chloe asked. "This is the official recording from the school, right? I don't think that the Old Principal will give you a pass…."
Honestly, Vernon got the recording with Diamond's help. They just found out that one of Diamond's university friends was working in the school as an admin.
She gave Diamond a copy of the recording since she thought there was no harm.
