ch.8

Hermione's pov.

I wake up at 8:30 like usaral and get ready then get the kids ready I left Cassy alone because she was working on another book and we all went down to breakfast together. When we got down stairs everyone else was there grandma was hiding the laptop in one of her old bags so no one noticed. We were all eating when Cassy came down with her laptop and showed it to me. "Are you serious" I ask "yes mom I am getting poplushed they want all my completed books sent to them by the end of the month " Cassy wispers " I am so proud of you" I say hugging her " I  forward it to dad and I just got off the phone with him I even sent it to Grandma and Grandpa they are so happy actually dad and grandpa sorta screamed and they were in a meeting" Cassy says" what about grandma" I ask "she's excited plus I am. Getting published in both worlds" she wispers " can I tell the family" Cassy asks " of course you can why don't you go tell Nana you want to make an announcement" I say " can you put my laptop in your bag since I am going with you to the office today" Cassy asks" of course now go before breakfast is over" I say and she nods and gose over to Grandma and wispers something in her ear before sitting down next to her. Just then grandma stands up and gets everyone's attention " ok listen up everyone Cassiopeia has an announcement to make so please be respectful " grandma says and Cassiopeia stands up and starts " about a year ago my parents made me a deal that I had to send one of my children story's to a poplisher in order to get a new laptop that would allow me to write and draw with out having to print it and scan it back on to my computer  so 5 months ago I emailed one of my completed story's to a poplisher we have been talking and I just received an email this morning I am being poplushed they want all of my completed story's by the end of the month. And I have decided that all the money I receive will go into a college fund for my younger siblings" Cassy says " why would we care there just stupid children's books probably won't even sell any" Alesha says" I said be respectful this is a big deal for her and just bring her down " grandma says" I  for one can not wait to read one of your story's can you print one out for me and some of the family"grandpa asks " I would love to" Cassy says smiling" why would you want to read a stupid children's book that a ten year old wrote " aunt Jennifer asks" ya it can't be that good I mean look at her mother she can't even keep a business going " uncle Marcus says" that's enough you can say bad things about me all you want but my daughter worked so hard on her books and deserves this her younger siblings love her books and they are really good and she is 13 not 10 say on more bad thing about her and I will make sure you don't go to the fashion show in 2 days" I yell "why would we care you are probably just gonna make a fool out of your self" candy says" enough listen and listen closely you will behave for the rest of the reunion if you mess with Hermione's fashion show or do something to destroy Cassiopeia's huge chance you will be cut off and disowned after talking with Stephanie her family we have realized that you all are working together and also as of today we both rewrote our will and asked for it to be filled and signed right away so as of today when we die all of our money will be going to charity and no one can change our minds" grandma says"what that's unfair we are your family" candy says" I don't mind we don't need the money"dad says" of course you don't you are living of your daughter" aunt Kimberly says" we do not live off our daughter we make our own money" mom says" ya right how else could you afford that car" Jennifer asks" enough James is telling the truth Hermione let them borrow the car because they came to France early just like renee and her family just like after the reunion we are going to be staying with her at her penthouse in new York City for fashion week" grandma says" are we invited" Brittany asks " sorry but after what you guys tried to do no I am letting you come to the fashion show even after what you did because aunt Renee wanted it to be one of the many activities for the reunion then there's an after party you are all invited to. "I say" that's not fair Isabella and her family got to stay with you and now grandma and grandpa get to go to fashion week we are your family to" cidny says" family doesn't lie to the world about a family members business know hermoine has to work extra hard to make sure the fashion show is great so she can stay open and keep making money which is already hard because a couple of models had quit because of your guys lies" grandma says"this is your chance officer up your help"aunt Jennifer wispers to candy and cidny" we will fill in for you" candy says"sorry I only need two models and one has to be a child and well Isabella and reneesme already volunteered and it will work perfectly because it's part a mother,daughter  line. "You will pick my daughter's or so help me God you will regret it" uncle Jason wispers in my ear so I simply get up and tell grandpa what he said" Jason Granger how dare you threaten Hermione she already told you she doesn't need any more models plus your daughters were involved in spreading lies and if you do end up messing up her show we will not hesitate to spend as much as it takes to help her keep her business running" grandpa says"and now we are all going shopping for the show and after party right after breakfast " aunt Renee says" grandma,mom, Isabella and reneesme I have designed a one of a kind dress just for you guys so please stop by my office to try it on before you go to get shoe's and stuff usually the models wear the designs that they end the show in but the models that do the mother daughter lines don't they are just requested to wear the same color and close to the same dress" I say "what about us don't we get a free one of a kind dress" aunt Jennifer asks" did I say your name because if I didn't then the answers no" I say" mom are going to let her talk to Jennifer like that the girls are family also that means they deserve a one of a kind dress " uncle Jason says"actually yes she can talk to her like that and they do not deserve a one of a kind dress not after what you guys did and don't even try to blame it on hermoine she did nothing but mind her own business and hasn't seen or spoke to you for years and when she introduce's her husband you will not try and destroy a perfect family you have already distroyed her dream wedding you will not destroy her family " grandma says and with that mom grabbed the bag grandma handed her and we got ready to go meet up with the police" hey that's the bag grandma promised me I could have" Brittany says " not anymore you don't deserve it and Jean asked if she could give it to a friend who needs a new bag " grandma says" so wait you are going to give the bag to a stranger that can probably get a bag her self instead of giving it to your granddaughter" uncle Marcus says" yes she is but sadly Cristina can't afford to get new bag you remember Cristina right Marcus" mom asks "the freak of a girlfriend mom's dubm house keeper she Hired" uncle Marcus says"one Kelly wasn't dubm she was an intelligent mother and two Cristina was her wife and third Cristina is not a freak she is unique and special just like aunt Jessica was" uncle Charlie says" yes Kellys wife after Kelly was killed Cristina could barely pay the bill so I offered her a job she makes enough to pay the bills and take care of her children so she has been using the same bag for years and it's ripping and she can't afford another bag so I told her I would ask my mother in law and see if she would kindly give her one of her old bags" Jean says"so you give an expecive bag like that to a poor person instead of a family member" aunt Jennifer says" yes I am I have heard alot about Kelly and her family and I think she deserves it we have also decided that those children would be added to our will so they have a great chance at a better life it's our way of helping a family in need and I will not just give her that one bag I will give her everything that you were supposed to go through  and never did" grandma says" you can't do that those are our things " aunt Kimberly says" and we have told you to get it out or we will donate everything" grandpa says" ok we will get it after the reunion" aunt Jennifer says" to late mom had me give her the address so as we speak Sabrina is helping her lode up her car so with everything that mom has decided to give her " dad says" hey Jean did you know that the public defender is making Kellys killer if found please her $3,000 because Kelly was the one bringing in most of the money" uncle Charlie says and I can see uncle Marcus pale" doesn't matter the case is closed" uncle Marcus says"actually money can get you anything you want I offered the settal police force $600 to reopen the case they have actually found some new evedece a pare of bloody lether gloves the good thing about that is that oils from your fingers can go on the glove so they have ten perfect figure prints and the blood was already tested so we will soon have grandma and grandpa swans killer as well as Kellys" I say watching him pale even more "what's wrong Marcus aren't you glad to finally get just for mom,dad and Kelly" mom asks" no I would have rather the case stay closed I came to terms with Mom and Dad's death and I never liked Kelly she probably killed them herself than committed suicide" uncle Marcus says" hey Mom I thought you said because of a kitchen accident Kelly wouldn't have been able to put the needed pressure on the trigger" I say" she couldn't even bend her finger all the way your uncle Marcus just hated her because she would never give him any alcohol when he was over" mom says" that because grandma swan didn't want alcohol in the house because I was always visiting" Bella says and mom and I walked out to find a police officer waiting with what I assume to be a detective " hello are you harmonies and Jean Granger" the detective asks yes we are I have the laptop right here and don't worry about getting it back to me it's an old one" I say handing it to the detective" now Charlie swan said you were recording some of your family members during the reunion to show your grandparents what they are really like and show how that have treated not only yours but his family and I correct " the detective says" yes you are " I say" and can I ask you to clarify who is related to the all the victims" the detective asks" I am there daughter I married James Granger and had Hermione then there's Charlie swan he married Renee Granger and had a daughter named Isabella then there's Marcus swan who married s Kimberly Granger and had two daughters Alesha and Brittany " mom says" I have five kids and three on the way, Isabella has one child and Alesha and Brittany has non my kids do know about there great grandparents and beged me to find a way to reopen the case" I say" that's why my boss seems to want the case solved" the detective says" money can be a huge motivation the last victim was Kelly brown she was my grandparents house keeper for ten years she had a wife Cristina brown and 4 kids with one on the way" I say " yes the report did state that she was 2 months pregnant also states that do to an injury while working she couldn't bend her fingers all the way or put enough pressure to push the trigger can one of you please explain how she got the injury" the detective asks" it was Thanksgiving Hermione was 2 years old we were over my parents house for a family dinner but because there were kids in the house there was no alcohol allowed my mother was really strict about it Kelly was in the kitchen helping Mom and me make dinner when Marcus came in and demanded Kelly to get him a beer but mom told him there is no alcohol in the house because of the kids my dad agreed to the rule so Marcus stormed out Kelly and her family was invited to have Thanksgiving dinner with us so when he didn't get what he wanted her went after her youngest daughter  I forget her name but he didn't just grab he grabbed Hermione and brought them both in by the neck and demanded Kelly to grab him a beer Kelly was cutting some veggies and got scared see her daughter being held by the neck and Kelly cut her wrist pretty deep and damaged her nerves in her hand a little which made it hard for her to do anything with that hand at the time she wasn't cutting she switched the knife into her other hand for a short second but that was all it took Marcus never liked Kelly because she refused to break my parents rules he had hoped she would not go back to work for my parents do to her injury my parents offer and of there staff that was injured during the job a genuruse offer of $500 for each year they have worked there before the injury as well as there medical bills being paid and they could leave with a great recomadtion but Kelly loved her  job and decided to stay so she was given a case and her medical bills paid in full. Marcus lived off my parents so he mostly wanted money and my parents realized that the next day when he told them that they shouldn't waist there money on Kelly when it would mostly go to him as he was the oldest which was true most of the money would go to Marcus while Charlie and got close to 5,000 dollars Charlie and I didn't care because we had jobs and was happy that same day they changed their will  Marcus got no money and got the house which he can't sell our change it into a bed and breakfast and my father's company which was small but brought in lots of money he sold the company to Charlie without knowing and only received $700 for it so now he has the house they were killed in and I refused to let him burn it like he planned to get the insurance money as in my parents will it states if Marcus went to prison for there death the house would go to hermoine and the business would go to Isabella that's why Charlie bought it so fast he wouldn't allow his daughter to be deprived of her inharetence this was after he found the bloody gloves he told and showed his boss but was told it was animal blood I knew his boss because his son was Marcus's friend in highschool and he raped me and Marcus lied to keep him out of jail" mom says" so Charlie swans old police chief owed your brother for keeping his son out of prison " the detective asks" yes but Charlie knew that something wasn't right because he over heard Marcus and Kimberly talk about killing our parents to get the money and he mentioned killing Kelly also. " Mom says" that's why he kept the gloves and made sure the evedence was never compromised" the detective says"yes but there's something you need to know my husband can be a little protective expesally after I told him about most of my family and he talked to his lawyer were lucky to get ahold of both my grandparents will and there's a clause in the will if he person that receives the inharetence is dead or in prison the inharetence gose to the oldest if it's money only the amount that is left is what they get  and that if they die and has a will that will must be full filled my husband checked mom has a will and Marcus knows about it so does my uncle Charlie though Marcus doesn't know my uncle told me you would listen to the whole thing and if my family gose through with there plans me and Isabella will end up in prison for something we didn't do and so will my parents luckily my mom heard there plans so it's possible my parents are safe but all I know is they are planning to do something at my fashion show and if they do that they know my business is over this fashion show is my last chance my family already tried 4 time this time I have no choice even though it's a lie my clients won't buy any of my clothes to sell in there store anymore if the fashion show and the after party is anything but perfect so ether way they win same with Isabella and my parents if they are successful then Isabella loses her husband and child and my parents lose there dental practice it will take you a couple of days to go through all of it so I know you won't find out until the fashion show just hopefully I don't get arrested if they do follow through because not only will I lose my inheritance I will lose my business and my 13 year old daughter will lose her big chance since she is using me as her manager and will not change her mind no matter what" I say "we will do everything we can to prevent that I will tell the police to hold off on any aresst in this family till we have gone through the whole tape from yesterday and today " the detective says " I do have a question the bugs I placed in there rooms and purse's should I remove them at all my grandparents know the truth so I don't need them anymore"  I say" no we will send someone to do it after we do something your bugs will most likely lead to two more killers since they married your uncle's both from rich family's both parents and siblings were killed and they received all the money but we couldn't find any evidence the judge already said that the recordings could be used so anything we get from the tapes we can use even if they threaten someone or have a very detailed plan we can use.usally recordings like these would not be allowed as evedence but we talked to every possible judge in Seattle and here and explained that it wasn't too go to the police but you guys hard a confession to murder and plans for another murder and they have decided to allow it as evedence so even if the gloves get taken out of evedence which I don't because I also explained that  you will get justice for your grandparents and as for your business if it does happen I will have someone from the police station explain everything to the media that should help you keep clients" the detective says" thanks for everything" I say as he leaves
