Amber did not speak again. She turned around and faced another direction.
Because she knew that Trenton did not blackmail her.
The so-called blackmail was just an excuse she found for helping him up.
Only in this way could she convince herself that the reason was not that she was worried about him, but she was afraid that he would put the blame on her.
After all, it wasn't like this couple couldn't do such a thing.
Seeing that Amber didn't speak, Trenton wasn't in the mood to argue with Amber anymore. He quickly asked Mrs. Gardner to help him leave. He needed to find a doctor to get some painkillers or something like that.
Although Mrs. Gardner still wanted to teach Amber a lesson and vent the anger in her heart...
She wasn't someone who didn't know priorities. After fiercely staring at Amber, she helped Trenton leave.
Trenton was the Gardner family's only pillar of support. If something happened to Trenton...
Then she, a married woman, would definitely be eaten clean by those old foxes in the group and would not be able to keep the Gardner family's property.
Mrs. Gardner supported Trenton and left.
Because they were in a hurry, they did not notice that Makayla stayed.
"Ms. Reed, I really didn't expect Makenna to jump off a building and die," Makayla said, facing Amber.
"I really didn't expect that either," Amber nodded, her gaze falling on her face as if she wanted to see something. "You seem to be very happy?" she asked.
Makayla covered her lips and smiled.
Her actions were almost exactly the same as the smiles of those rich young ladies in the circle.
It seemed that during this period of time, she had made many friends with those rich young ladies in the circle, and her speech and actions had become more elegant.
In short, the current Makayla was no longer as rustic and reserved as when she first came to Olkmore. She had become graceful and radiant, and it was not an exaggeration to say that she didn't seem to have ever lived in the countryside.
"Of course I am happy." Makayla folded her arms and admitted her current feelings. "Just now, you saw my mother. Although Makenna cut off her relationship with my parents, it doesn't mean that my parents have completely abandoned her. So as long as Makenna is alive, my parents will always care about her. Maybe when she comes out of jail in the future, my parents will feel sorry for her and take her back to the family. Now that Makenna is dead, I don't have to worry about this anymore.""
“Wait..." Just as Makayla was about to ask Amber what she was hiding, she suddenly saw two figures walking over from behind
her. She frowned and swallowed back what she had wanted to say.
Ben was the first to notice Makayla. His face froze and he reminded the man who was looking at his phone, "Mr. Farrell, Judy."
Hearing this name, Jared quickly put down his phone and looked in the direction of Amber.
Seeing Amber and Makayla standing together and talking about something, and Makayla's expression, his heart suddenly
tightened.
Makayla saw that his speed had increased. She knew that he was worried that she would do something to Amber, so she
quickly moved her feet and retreated. "Since Ms. Reed refused to tell me why I will be disappointed, then I will investigate
myself. Alright, Ms. Reed, Mr. Farrell is here. I will not disturb you. Goodbye."
As soon as her figure disappeared, Jared came to Amber's side. He grabbed Amber's shoulder and looked her up and down.
The concern in his eyes was not concealed at all. "Are you okay? Did she do anything to you?"
“What did you talk about?" Seeing that she really did not seem to be in trouble, Jared sighed in relief and removed his hand.
Amber pursed her red lips and replied, "We talked about Makenna. Didn't you say that the person who died was not Makenna?
So I was wondering who helped Makenna escape and who arranged a substitute for her.
