The diary belongs to a woman named Cassandra. Alan begins to read.
I married this disgusting old man hoping that he would die soon and leave me his money. He was supposed to be sick and not long for this world. After our marriage he made a miraculous recovery. I don’t know how much longer and can stand his hands touching my body. I don’t intend on wasting my youth waiting for him to die. I need to help him along.
Alan becomes even more intrigued. This Cassandra chick was a gold digging heartless bitch. Alan skips a few pages a head skimming through looking for something tasty and finds it.
My “darling” husband was laid to rest today. The poison was too quick. He died peacefully in his sleep. The old bastard changed his will though leaving part of his money to his youngest daughter Stephanie. She has come back from boarding school for the funeral and the help me around the house. I will befriend her of only to get what I deserve. It should be easy as she’s only a few years junior to me. Two years of putting up with having her father’s hands touch entitles me to everything.
My attempts to befriend Stephanie have failed. She’s a little harlot. She didn’t leave boarding school she was expelled after sharing a bed with half the male and females at the school. It seems that this is not the first time she has been expelled from a school.
Things between Stephanie and I are growing more tense. I believe she has slept with Hans the gardener and my lover. I’ve also heard her enter Grace the maid’s room late at night. Hopefully they are just engaging in some perverse act, but I think that Grace suspects that I killed Tom. They may all be conspiring against me.
I convinced they are out to get me. The bottle of poison I used on Tom is missing from my room. I’ll show them though. They will not survive the night.
As Alan was reading the diary he starts identifying with Cassandra. Like Cassandra his family is always coming down on him. Alan is so captivated he doesn’t notice the changes coming over his body. As Alan finishes the last paragraph he is completely transformed into Cassandra.
