She was bitten by the snake during the day. After she woke up, Jared did not care about her at all and did not even look at her.
How could Makenna bear it?
"No." Jared ate the soup and replied indifferently.
Makenna felt even worse when she heard his cold voice.
She bit her lower lip and forced a smile. "Are you really okay? I think you..."
"All right, eat." Jared interrupted her with a hint of impatience in his tone.
Makenna's eyes instantly turned red.
Seeing this scene, the people at the next table all snickered.
Makenna knew that they were laughing at her. Her face twisted in anger, but she couldn't lose her temper. She felt terrible.
Soon, Jared finished his meal, wiped the corners of his mouth elegantly, and left the dining room.
Makenna had only eaten half of it. Seeing that Jared had left without waiting for her, she lost her appetite and put down her fork and knives to chase after him.
"Jared." Makenna caught up with Jared breathlessly and grabbed his arm. "Jared, what happened to you tonight?"
Jared pursed his thin lips and said nothing.
Makenna looked at him with teary eyes. "Jared, did I do something wrong? That's why you're so cold to me. If so, can you tell me? I'm afraid when you're like this."
Hearing this, Jared turned around and said, “Makenna, tell me honestly, did you notice the snake in advanced and deliberately stimulate it to attack Amber?"
Makenna's expression changed slightly. "Jared, why do you think so?"
"Stella Chan saw it. When the snake pounced on Amber, you were smiling. You were not even surprised by the appearance of the snake." Jared glared at her.
Makenna opened her mouth but didn't dare to look Jared in the eye. She lowered her head slightly and sobbed in a low voice, "I don't know, I really don't know."
"You don't know?" Jared frowned.
Makenna hummed in agreement. "I was talking to Miss Reed by the stream when I suddenly felt the darkness. Then, I didn't know anything. When I woke up just now, I was surprised that I was bitten by a snake. What was funny was I had no impression at all how I was bitten."
"Could it be your second personality?" Jared pursed his thin lips.
Makenna shook her head. "I don't know, but when you said that Stella saw the snake attacking Miss Reed, I was still smiling. Maybe it was really my secondary personality."
Jared rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "Why would she appear at that time?"
In the past two days, it was normal for Makenna to see Amber.
Why did the second personality suddenly appear?
"I think Miss Reed's words were overheard by my other personality, so..."Makenna bit her lip.
Jared narrowed his eyes and asked, "What did you talk about?"
A bitter smile hung on Makenna's face as she said, "Miss Reed said that I was immoral and that's why Logan disliked us and turned to their side. She also said that if this continued, you would abandon me sooner or later..."
"Amber won't say things like these." Jared subconsciously defended Amber.
Makenna's face twisted for a moment and then she quickly composed her and looked at him sadly. "Jared, do you think I'm lying?"
Jared looked down and said, "No, but Amber would never..."
"So, you would rather believe in Miss Reed than believe me?" Makenna was so shocked and felt sad.
Jared was a little tired, but he still replied patiently, "I believe you."
"But you also think that Miss Reed doesn't insult me, right?" Makenna's voice was choked with sobs.
Jared sighed and said, "Sorry, it's my fault. Maybe I really think too highly of Amber."
Makenna's other personality would only appear when she was stimulated.
Perhaps Amber's words had stimulated her second personality.
Seeing that Jared had once again been defeated by her tears, Makenna felt extremely proud.
