Chapter 21: He's Stealing Everyone's Hearts
The betrayal started with Grandma.
Not Chloe.
Not Grace.
Not even Mochi.
Grandma.
The one person Ivy thought she could trust.
The one person who once chased a telemarketer off the phone by pretending to be possessed.
A legend.
An icon.
A warrior.
A traitor.
"He's lovely."
Ivy nearly dropped her coffee.
Across the living room, Grandma Evelyn sat peacefully in her favorite armchair.
Knitting.
Watching television.
Destroying lives.
"What?"
Grandma didn't even look up.
"That boy."
"What boy?"
"The giant one."
Silence.
"The giant one?"
"The handsome one."
Silence.
"The handsome one?"
Grandma finally glanced over her glasses.
"The one you're pretending not to like."
"I DON'T LIKE HIM."
Grandma returned to knitting.
