At 4 p.m., she took her to leave.
Jared didn't make her stay and let the nurse walk her out.
They stopped at the entrance, and Amber said to the nurse, "You can go back."
"Okay, Miss Reed." The nurse nodded and returned to the hospital.
Amber pulled her luggage to catch a car by the roadside.
She had reached the side of the road when a black Mercedes stopped in front of her.
The car door opened and Makayla came down from inside. She was first taken aback and then greeted her with a smile when she saw Amber. "Miss Reed, what a small world. Are you coming out of the hospital?"
Amber narrowed her eyes and replied expressionlessly, "It's none of your business."
Her detention ended! How fast it was!
Makayla didn't get mad at Amber's bad attitude. The smile didn't leave her face. "Miss Reed, don't be like this. We've known each other for a while, so I don't want us to fall out over this. Speaking of which, you're still my benefactor."
"Benefactor?" Amber laughed awkwardly.
Makayla nodded. "Yeah, if it weren't for Miss Reed and Mr. Cohen, I would've been still sticking around with the Lashley's, that evil couple! And I wouldn't have known that my real parents were rich. So, I'm very grateful that you and Mr. Cohen found my family."
Hearing this, Amber's face contorted into an odd expression.
If she had known that Judy was the real Makayla, she wouldn't have agreed to Hayden's suggestion to arrange for a spy in the Gardner family.
Then she wouldn't end up owning anything useful of the Gardner family.
"So, that's how you thank your benefactor. Well, I really can't accept it." Amber looked at Makayla and sneered.
Makayla's eyes flickered and she quickly regained her calm. She tucked her hair behind his ear and replied to Amber, "I didn't do it right. I followed an impulse. How about I apologize to Miss Reed?"
"You can keep it. I won't accept your apology. Judy…"
"Miss Reed, my name is Makayla!" Makayla smiled and corrected her.
Amber's eyebrows lifted into a confrontational expression. "You can't wait to get rid of the name Judy, right?"
"Is there anything wrong? I'm not Judy, am I?" Makayla narrowed her eyes.
Amber raised her chin. "That's right. You're not Judy, but you can't deny it. You've been Judy for more than 20 years, so there's nothing wrong with me calling you Judy, right?"
"You..." Makayla saw that she had already corrected herself, but Amber still insisted on calling her old name. She couldn't maintain her smile any longer and her face turned gloomy. She glared at Amber, "You did it on purpose, right? You disgust me by calling me Judy."
"I guess I can live with that." Amber spread out her hands, smiling wickedly.
Makayla's chest was heaving with anger. After a while, she snorted coldly, "Well, Miss Reed, since the day I took a paternity test, you can't hold onto me anymore. So, you can only take advantage of me verbally."
"That's not true," Amber looked at her coldly. "Taking advantage of you verbally was far from enough. I'll make you cry about what you had done. Remember the last time you attacked me? Don't think that you can get away with it after getting detention for a few days. I'll keep that in mind and make you pay twice as much in the future. And the best way to retaliate is not to kill your enemy, but to rip off what she cares about the most." Amber sized up Makayla's designer clothes and bags. Her lips curled into a mocking smile. "You have been through the depths of poverty, and you care about money. Do you think I can still hold onto you when I destroy the Gardner family?"
Makayla clenched his fists and glared at Amber. "Destroy the Gardner family? Who do you think you are?"
Amber crossed her arms. " What do you think? There was the Cohen family and the Lyon family behind me. The Farrell family would back me up if I need. Now you tell me who am I? The Gardner family won't make it until tomorrow morning if I want."
If it wasn't restricted by the legal document, Amber really wanted to do it. This was the simplest and most effective way to destroy the Gardner family.
But she would soon be liquidated by the government if she did it and lost the Goldstone. Even the Cohen family and the Lyon family would get involved.
