When Jared was confused, he heard Makenna's voice again, "Jared, open the door."
Hearing that, Jared confirmed that it was not a dream.
He got out of bed, turned on the light, and walked toward the door.
When he opened the door, he saw a woman with messy hair and clothes outside. He frowned and asked, "Makenna?"
"Jared." Makenna looked up at him.
When he saw that her face was injured, he asked seriously, "What happened?"
Makenna cried even louder and threw herself into his arms.
Jared quickly took a step back to avoid her.
Makenna missed her target and stopped crying. She looked at him resentfully, "Jared, are you hiding from me?"
He coughed. Jared knew that his reaction made her unhappy. He explained, "Sorry, Makenna, you know that I have mysophobia."
"I know, but..."
"Well. Tell me what happens to you." Jared interrupted her.
Makenna said angrily, "I am stuffed into a sack and beaten by them."
Hearing that, Jared wanted to laugh.
He really smiled. Although the corners of his mouth were only slightly curled up, Makenna saw it.
"Jared!" Makenna stomped her feet angrily, "I was hit, but you're laughing at me."
"Sorry." Jared stopped smiled and asked, "Who did it?"
Surprisingly, he was not angry at it.
"It's Miss Reed and her friends. They ask Logan to trick me out of the bedroom and then use medicine to make me fall in a faint. They put me into a sack and take me to the stable. They punch and kick me together. You look at me. I'm injured."
Makenna rolled up her sleeves, revealing her bruises. She said, "They also splash water on me. You have to uphold justice for me. They go too far."
Jared looked at the injury on Makenna's arm. He was still not very angry, but his voice was a little cold, "I know. You go back and wash up first. I go to find Logan."
"Okay." Makenna nodded and went back to her bedroom.
Jared went upstairs.
"Logan, come out!" He knocked on Logan's door.
Logan opened the door. When he saw Jared, he yawned and pretended to be sleepy, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Do you participate in beating up Makenna?" Jared stared at Logan.
Logan was not good at pretending himself. When he was stared at by Jared intently, he immediately exposed himself and couldn't say a word.
Jared said seriously, "You're so bold to do that."
"She deserves it. It is she who hurt Amber first." Logan said.
Jared frowned and said, "You hit her because of what happened in the day."
"Yes." Logan muttered.
Jared looked at him for a while and said, "I won't give you any pocket money in the next three months. You should reflect on yourself."
After saying, Jared ignored Logan's wailing and knocked on Hayden's door.
Soon, all the people on the third floor came out and stood in the corridor.
Everyone looked at each other. They all knew what Jared was here for. Makenna must wake up and complained to him, so Jared came to blame them.
"Jared, why did you wake us up in the middle of the night?" Hayden stretched, leaned against the door, and asked lazily.
