Chapter 122 Admit it on Her Own
Trenton also knew these dirty tricks were indeed not enough to break down Amber, not to mention that
there was
a mysterious fox mask man behind Amber.
If he wanted to break down Amber, he must first find out fox mask man. But this matter couldn’t be
rushed, so he
could only take it slowly.
Makenna didn’t speak. She lowered her head. No one knew what she was thinking.
At this moment, the door of the interrogation room was opened.
A policeman brought Amber in.
Amber looked at the family of three. She said mockingly, “Well well, Mr. Gardner and Mrs. Gardner are
also here.”
Mrs. Gardner turned her head away and ignored Amber.
Trenton snorted coldly, but did not speak.
Only Makenna looked at Amber with tears in her eyes, “Miss Reed, I’m really sorry. I really didn’t mean
to push you
downstairs. I just…”
“You just have split personalities, right?” Amber curled her lips mockingly.
Makenna bit her lip, “So you’ve already known it.”
Amber snorted and squinted at her, “Do you really have split personalities?”
“It’s true. I just knew it.” Makenna nodded in horror, as if she was afraid of her split personality.
Mrs. Gardner hugged her, “Makenna, why didn’t you tell us?”
“Why?” Trenton also looked at her seriously.
Makenna held the hands of the two of them, “Because I don’t want you two to worry about me.”
“You…” Mrs. Gardner sighed.
Amber looked at the family of three with a flash of nostalgia in her eyes.
Once upon a time, she also had parents who loved her so much.
But all of this was gone because of the incident six years ago.
“Enough.” Amber crossed her arms on her chest and said coldly, “I don’t know whether Miss Gardner
really has split personalities or not. If it’s fake, I wish that you truly have that.”
Makenna’s face froze. She looked at Amber in shock, “Miss Reed, you…”
“How can you be so vicious? You actually curse Makenna!” Mrs. Gardner pointed at Amber, trembling
with anger.
Trenton also looked at Amber with a gloomy expression on his face.
Amber spread her hands, “I said if it’s fake, I wish it was true. But since your daughter really has spilt
personalities, then what I wish for doesn’t matter at all, right? Why are you so angry?”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“You…” Mrs. Gardner was rendered speechless.
Trenton patted Mrs. Gardner’s hand, then squinted at Amber, “Little girl, you’re still glib–tongued.”
Amber smiled, “I’m flattered.”
Trenton snorted coldly and said nothing.
Amber set her eyes on Makenna, “Miss Gardner, my recording is gone. Are you happy?”
“What?” Makenna blinked blankly. As if she had just realized what it meant, she opened her mouth in
surprise,
“Miss Reed, you doubted me?”
“It’s just the three of us who know that I have the recording. I’ve already asked Jared. He didn’t do it, so
it must be you.” Amber looked at her.
Makenna waved her hand quickly, “I didn’t do it. It wasn’t me. I already said that I can go to jail and be
responsible
for my actions, so why would I go rob you?“.
“Rob?” Amber smiled, “Miss Gardner, when did I say the recording was robbed?”
Makenna’s face changed. Only then did she realize that she had spilled the beans.
“I… I…” She twisted her hands together uneasily.
Seeing this, Amber was full of contempt, “If Miss Gardner doesn’t want to go to jail, just say it straight.
Maybe I’ll have some respect to you by that. But you actually did such things. It’s really hypocritical!”
Glancing at Makenna coldly, Amber turned and left.
Makenna lowered her head with a sad face, but didn’t answer.
“Honey, what are you looking at?” Mrs. Gardner couldn’t help frowning when she saw Trenton staring at
the
direction Amber left.
Trenton pondered for a few seconds, “It’s nothing. I just think that Amber’s side face is somewhat
similar to my
mother.”
In the meeting before, he felt that Amber’s smile was similar to that of his mother.
But now, her side face was also similar, which surprised him a lot.
Hearing it, Mrs. Gardner also thought of something. Her eyes widened, “Yeah, once I came back from
South Riverside and met Amber at the airport, I felt that her side face was very familiar at the time. I
seem to have seen it somewhere, but I just didn’t remember it. Since you said that, I feel she and your
mother do look alike.”
Mrs. Gardner nodded, “Yes.”

Makenna bit her lip and lowered her head, “I don’t like Grandma.”
“Alas…” Mrs. Gardner sighed and stroked her head, “Well, let’s not talk about it. Grandmother is gone.”
“But I just don’t understand why my grandmother doesn’t like me. Am I not her only granddaughter?”
Makenna looked at Trenton and Mrs. Gardner with tears in her eyes.
They two looked at each other, and both saw the complexity in each other’s eyes.
Outside the interrogation room, Amber was talking to a police officer.
“Miss Reed, although you said that Miss Gardner pushed you downstairs and is suspected of
intentional homicide, there is no surveillance at the place of the incident, so it is difficult to collect useful
evidence. Besides, the evidence in your hand is also lost, so we can’t detain Miss Gardner for the time
being.”
Amber had expected such a result for a long time, so she was not angry, but just felt a little unwilling.
She
nodded, “I know.”
“We will try our best to get your bag back,” the policeman said again.
Amber thanked him, “Thank you.”
“Never mind.” The policeman smiled.
Afterwards, Amber signed and walked out of the police station.
Outside the police station, Jared was leaning against the car door with a cigarette in his hand.
Amber was startled.
He actually smoked.
This was the first time that she saw him smoking.
Jared also saw Amber, snuffed out the cigarette butt, and then stared at her face seriously. Seeing that
her face was not as pale as before, he felt relieved a lot.
“Are you all right?” he asked.
Amber pretended not to hear him. Then she just walked straight to her car.
Jared frowned.
He could feel that she hated him so much now, even more than before.
Amber drove away.
Jared stood there for a while, then there were a few footsteps behind him.
“Jared.” Makenna shouted in surprise.
Jared turned around and saw her running towards him cheerfully.
“Jared, you…” Makenna saw the bruise on Jared’s face. Her smiled froze. Then she hurriedly reached
out to touch. it, and asked anxiously, “Jared, what’s wrong with you? Who beat you?”
“What happened?” Mrs. Gardner and Trenton also asked with concern.
Jared took Makenna’s hand off his face, “It’s okay. I fell off myself.”
“Impossible! This is obviously injured by someone.” Makenna burst into tears.
Jared held her hand, “Well, it’s over. Get in the car first.”
Seeing that he didn’t want to say more, Makenna had to give up and obediently got into the car.
On the way, Jared looked at her from the corner of his eye, “Makenna, did you ask someone else to rob
Amber’s
bag?”
Makenna nodded but then she shook her head, “It should be me. But I don’t have the impression, so I
think maybe.
it was the other me who did it. She might not want to go to jail. I’m sorry, Jared.”
“It has nothing to do with you. Don’t blame yourself.” Jared comforted her softly.
Makenna sniffed, “But what about Miss Reed?”
“Just return the bag to her. Even if she has the recording, I won’t let you go to jail.” Jared turned the
steering wheel
and said.
Makenna bowed her head in embarrassment, “But, I don’t know who I asked to rob the bag, and there
is no
contact information on the phone. I can’t find the bag, so how do I return it to her?”
