Chapter 396 You Could Be the Real Makayla Gardner
Makayla’s eyes twinkled.
She did lie when speaking those words.
However, she didn’t care, as long as she could hide the red mole’s secret.
“I agree with Hayden. I don’t buy it,” Amber said, frowning.
Makayla bit her lower lip. “I’m telling the truth.”
“Well, can you tell me who the fortune teller is?” Amber asked.
Makayla looked down. “I don’t know. I occasionally met him. He left after telling me my future.”
“Gee, all lies!” Hayden laughed again in anger.
Makayla pinched her hands. “I know you won’t believe me, but that’s the truth.”
“All right. Since you are so stubborn and unwilling to tell us, I’ll look into the matter myself. After I find out the secret of the red mole, I’ll get even with you.” Amber patted the armrest of her wheelchair and said, “Hayden, we’ve finished our questions. Let’s go. Let the police handle the rest issues.”
“Ehn. Let’s go back to discuss how to expose her identity.” Hayden nodded.
Makayla’s expression changed dramatically. “Do you want to expose me?”
“You’ve attacked Amber and betrayed us. Think we’ll let you continue being Makayla, huh? Besides, you want to be Makayla forever. It means you are unwilling to work for us to bring down the Gardner family. Because you know if they are brought down, you cannot lead such a luxurious life even if you keep being Makayla,” Hayden looked at her and said ironically.
Makayla looked guilty. Obviously, her mind had been seen through.
Like Hayden said, she wouldn’t want to be Judy Lashley again but wanted to be Makayla Gardner for the rest of her life.
However, with her identity, she must ensure that the Gardner family and the Trident Group would survive. Or, it would be meaningless for her to do what she was doing currently.
Hence, when she attacked Amber, she had already decided to take the Gardner family’s side.
Looking at Makayla, who was in silence, Hayden had a strong self-mockery in his heart.
He was always proud of his correct judgment of others. He had never made a mistake in his life.
However, he was deceived by such a woman. He felt so annoyed and regretful.
“All right. Girl, treasure your happy wealthy days now. Soon, you’ll return to be Judy Lashley.” After finishing his words, Hayden pushed Amber out of the interrogation room.
Malaya looked down to cover the hatred in her eyes.
Return to be Judy Lashley?
Never! She wouldn’t allow that.
Outside the police station, Hayden pushed Amber towards the car.
She lowered her head all the way. Stroking her bandaged wrist, she was lost in thought.
Seeing that, Hayden asked, “Are you still wondering about your red mole?”
Amber hummed. “Right. I have to. It was so weird that Judy Lashley insisted on removing my red mole, but she refused to tell us why. I feel quite bothered.”
“She attacked you because she thought you would expose her identity. Sharon also told you the red mole would be a threat to Judy’s identity, didn’t she? Besides, Judy cared about her identity as Makayla Gardner the most. Hence, I guess Makayla has a red mole on her wrist. Therefore, Judy thought you were the real Makayla, so she…”
“How could it be possible?” Amber interrupted him, wondering if she should laugh or cry. Shaking her head, she said, “How could I be Makayla Gardner? I’m my parents’ biological daughter. Have you ever heard my parents adopting a daughter?”
“Nah,” said Hayden with a shrug.
“That’s right.” Amber rolled her eyes at him.
Hayden giggled. Then he thought of something and lowered his head to gaze at her face.
Amber couldn’t see but could feel his gaze. She frowned and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Remember I ever said your eyes looked like Mrs. Gardner’s quite a long time ago, Amber?” Hayden looked at her eyes.
Amber raised her hand and stroked them.” Right. You said when you went to the hospital with me after my leg was injured.”
“Right. I still think so. With Judy Lashley’s abnormality when facing you, you may be the real Makayla Gardner,” Hayden said, rubbing his chin.
Amber was taken aback. She tightened her hands on the armrest of the wheelchair. “No way. Only my eyes look like hers. Nothing else on me looks like her. You can’t declare I’m the real Makayla Gardner because of my eyes. Aren’t Judy Lashley’s eyes like Mrs. Gardner’s?”
“I agree.” Hayden nodded. “Anyway, your red mole is relevant to Makayla. I’ll look into the real Makayla to see if she had a red mole, especially on her wrist. If so, Amber, you might be the real Makayla. In that case, I hope you can do the paternity test with Trenton and his wife.”

She still didn’t think she was Makayla.
If so, how could she face her hatred for the Gardner family?
Hence, she’d rather accept that she wasn’t a daughter from the Reed family instead that she was the real Makayla.
Hayden could tell her refusal and fear. He thought for a moment and understood.
Heaving a sigh, he comforted her, “No worries, Amber. Didn’t you just say your parents had never adopted a daughter? You are highly possible the daughter of the Reed family. Besides, haven’t you investigated your background in South Riverside? So…”
“I know.” Amber closed her eyes and tried hard to keep calm. “Let’s leave here first.”
Seeing that she was unwilling to continue talking about this subject, Hayden also shushed and pushed her forward.
Right after they had left the police station, the police called the Gardner couple over.
Makayla had admitted her attack to Amber, so the police informed her parents.
When the Gardner couple heard that Makayla was arrested for attacking Amber, they almost fainted in unison.
Their other daughter, Makenna, had just been sent to jail. Now, Makayla was arrested.
The most important was that both girls were sent to the police station by Amber.
Trenton was angry. He doubted if the Gardner family was born an enemy with the Reed family.
If not, why did the Reed family keep making trouble to the members of the Gardner family?
“Honey, what should we do?” Mrs. Gardner burst into tears in a panic. “We’ve lost Makenna. We can’t lose Makayla. Makenna had a grudge against Amber, so I could understand why she made the trouble to Amber. But why did Makayla attack Amber? What on earth happened?”
Trenton looked annoyed. “How would I know?” he said,
Mrs. Gardner was rendered speechless. Only then did she realize that she shouldn’t have asked her husband.
He had been staying home with her all the time, so he didn’t know the reason either.
“All right. Let’s go to the police station and ask them what has happened.” Trenton took a deep breath and stood up from the sofa.
Probably, he stood up too fast. Or, probably, he was so furious after hearing that Makayla was arrested. He staggered a bit, almost falling to the ground.
Mrs. Gardner hurriedly helped him up. She asked worriedly in a panic, “Honey, are you OK?”
Trenton slightly closed his eyes to adjust his status and wave his hand. “I’m fine. Let’s go. Hurry up and go to the police station. Let’s rescue Makayla.”
He could give up on Makenna. After all, she had committed a severe crime, and she wasn’t his biological daughter.
However, Makayla was different. She was his biological daughter and his only one. No matter what, Trenton must save her.
