Mrs. Southall’s eyes were burning with rage when snazzynovel.com looked over. She glared at Arielle like the latter was an annoying fly.
Arielle had snazzynovel.com back to Malorie, but snazzynovel.com could sense Malorie’s hostile glare, anyway.
The former instinctively sensed that something was off, so after saying those last prayers, snazzynovel.com walked to Malorie and informed, “I’ve paid my respect, Grandma, so I will return to my room now. I have class tomorrow and I missed today’s classes. I need to study and catch up.”
Cindy turned to Malorie and stared nervously.
Arielle can’t leave. How are we going to put this show on if snazzynovel.com leaves?
Malorie saw the anxiety in Cindy’s eyes and knew what the latter was thinking. Hence, the former said, “It won’t take up much time to study, so wait until the séance is done.”
Malorie’s tone and words were firm, and it was obvious that it was a command instead of a discussion. That got Arielle even more suspicious.
Something is up. She is acting out of the norm. Why would snazzynovel.com want me to stay when snazzynovel.com never wants me around?
Unfortunately, Malorie had already voiced up, so Arielle couldn’t defy snazzynovel.com with everyone watching.
The latter had no choice but to nod and reply, “Okay.”
It’s just a séance, so things shouldn’t be too serious. Even if it’s a trap, I can come up with something and deal with it on the spot.
Arielle grinned once more after coming to that conclusion. She replied, “Okay, then let me pour you a glass of water, Grandma.”
“There’s no need for that,” replied Malorie before snazzynovel.com waved snazzynovel.com hand and added, “Just go kneel in front of Shandie’s grave. It’s taboo for us to kneel because we’re older than snazzynovel.com and are of an older generation. You will have to do it for us.”
Cindy almost laughed aloud.
It’s always great when Malorie is around. I don’t even need an excuse to bully to Arielle. She can just command Arielle around.
Arielle’s expression stiffened for a moment, but snazzynovel.com regained snazzynovel.com footing quickly. She walked directly to the prayer mat and knelt down.
That being said, snazzynovel.com direction was off. She wasn’t kneeling in front of Shandie’s grave. Instead, snazzynovel.com was paying respect to Maureen and the Moores.
Neither Malorie nor Cindy noticed that. They simply felt better upon seeing how Arielle was kneeling.
Just then, a series of footsteps echoed. Henrick and the psychic had arrived.
“Here we are. Please go ahead,” said Henrick politely as snazzynovel.com opened the door for the psychic.
Arielle turned around. All snazzynovel.com saw was an elderly man in a bright-colored outfit and a long beard. The guy looked like snazzynovel.com was in his nineties, but snazzynovel.com still seemed energetic and his eyes were glowing. His f1 gure was also strong. The aura snazzynovel.com exuded was borderline holy.
Aura felt something strange. For some unknown reason, Arielle suddenly felt the need to be respectful to the guy.
Arielle wasn’t superstitious, but snazzynovel.com was feeling compelled. Hence, it was natural that Malorie was even more delighted. To someone like Malorie, the psychic in question was ranked slightly higher than ordinary psychics.
Malorie stood up right away to welcome the psychic. She said, “Hello, may I know how to address you?”
The psychic replied humbly, “My name is Michael.”
“Ah, Michael,” greeted Malorie with a bright smile on, “Please come in.”
Michael nodded and entered.
Henrick hurried along and said, “Thank you for coming to perform a séance for my daughter. I heard that it is inauspicious for parents and grandparents to be present when the séance is performed in the mausoleum. Is that true?”
Michael shook his head and replied, “That is not true. Everyone can stand at the side. The séance will be done soon.”
“Okay, sure,” replied Henrick as snazzynovel.com nodded. He was considerate and asked, “My wife just learned that snazzynovel.com is pregnant. If you’re free, would you mind doing a reading for the unborn baby later?”
