Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 132

Suddenly, Cole's face went cold as his gaze swept over the five people's faces, finally settling on Makenna's face, "Amber's horse is the most docile mare picked by the stable keeper, and by definition, it is impossible for it to suddenly go crazy, so I think there must be some murky reason in here."

"Mr. Lyon, do you mean that someone did something to Miss Reed's horse?" Stella quickly reacted and asked with wide eyes.

"It's not me." Logan was afraid of being suspected and was the first to shake his head and wave his hand in denial.

Hayden sipped his tea calmly, "It's not me either."

"It's not me." Stella also raised her hand.

Cole looked at the last two people, "Then there is only Mr. Farrell and Miss Gardner, but Mr. Farrell saved her, certainly not the person who did the trick. So…"

"So you suspect it's me?" Makenna clenched her fists, looking as if she was about to cry with grievance.

Cole clapped his hands, "Looks like you're quite self-aware. Yes, I do suspect you. Of all the people present, you're the only one most likely to harm Amber, as it has happened more than once."

"I didn't!" Makenna's tears flowed down her face as she pulled Jared's hand, "Believe me, I really didn't."

"I believe you." Jared squeezed her hand, gesturing for her to calm down first.

Once Makenna heard that he believed her, she nodded her head repeatedly and calmed down.

Cole rolled his eyes, "Of course you believe her. Even she kill someone or set fire, she only needs to shed a few tears and you're gonna believe her. After all, you spoil her without limits, which is known to everyone here."

Stella and Hayden nodded their heads.

Even Logan couldn't refute against his heart and nodded.

His brother did do that sometimes.

"I believe Makenna, not because I spoil her, but because she has a complete alibi." Seeing that several people were not on his side, Jared did not get angry but looked at Cole and said in a deep voice, "From the beginning to the end, Makenna never touched Amber's horse, so tell me, how did she tamper with it?"

At first, he'd wondered if the second personality of Makenna had done it.

But later on, he analyzed it carefully and came to the result that it wasn't Makenna's second personality that did it, and Makenna's second personality hadn't appeared.

Cole froze, and it was true.

When the horse was chosen, Makenna was not there, and it was impossible do anything to the horse in advance, because there were so many horses inside the stable. How did Makenna know which horse Amber would choose?

Unless Makenna had laid her hands on all the horses in advance, but then, their horses should have gone crazy too. However, since nothing happened to them, could it be that it was really an accident?

"Why don't we ask the manager of the stables to have an examination on the horse? The result should be out soon." Hayden suggested.

Jared nodded, "Then please ask him to come over"

Soon the stable keeper came over.

Cole asked what was wrong with Amber's horse.

The stable keeper replied, "Miss Reed's horse is rutting."

"What!?" The crowd froze.

Only Makenna lowered her head to hide the slightly hooked corners of her mouth.

"It is rutting?" Cole was confused, "But this isn't the season for animals to be rutting."

Hayden and Stella, as well as Logan, also looked at the keeper.

The keeper shook his head, "Just because the season is over doesn't mean the animals won't rut. There're other reason that the animals are stimulated to rut."

Jared asked in a deep voice, "Then what caused Amber's horse to be in heat?"

The keeper thought for a moment and answered, "It's unclear at the moment. It could be from smelling something or eating something. The exact cause is unclear, but it's pretty much both."

"It shouldn't be possible to have eaten anything, the horse didn't eat anything when it was brought out." Stella said.

She was there when Amber chose the horse, and saw it clearly.

"So it smelt something?" Cole rubbed his chin and spoke.

Hayden suddenly smiled, "It wouldn't be the perfume on Amber, would it?"

The corners of the crowd's mouths twitched.
