Chapter 409 The Test Result
She paused and inhaled deeply to cool herself down, then she continued, “Dad, mom, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have lied, but they brought me great damages. I didn’t want to mention them in the slightest. It reminded me of the darkest days in my life when I brought them up.”
“That’s enough. Makayla, that’s okay.” Mrs. Gardner threw her arms around Makayla in distress. Tears uncontrollably rolled down her face.
Even Trenton’s expression gradually softened.
Makayla’s speech cleared Trenton’s doubts.
But Toby and his wife wouldn’t believe Makayla’s shit.
Toby shivered in anger. “Bullshit! You little bitch, when did I say you’re not my daughter? When did I hide the necklace?”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“You are making this up!” Toby’s wife echoed with red eyes.
Toby realized what Makayla was up to. She didn’t even want to admit that they were her biological parents, so she deliberately made up another story about her birth.
Why didn’t they notice their daughter was this bold and ambitious?
Hayden was shocked, and his expression turned serious.
He narrowed his eyes at Makayla intensely.
This woman’s brain ran fast! She twisted the situation with only a few words.
He and Amber really underestimated Makayla. Now they were regretting picking her as their spy from the beginning!
“Judy, you are good at this,” Hayden looked at Makayla and applauded, “You can dodge the bullet in just a few words.”
Makayla dropped her head and stared at the floor to hide the gloom in her eyes.
She knew Hayden wanted to reignite Trenton’s doubts.
But unfortunately, Makayla would not give him this opportunity.
She pulled Trenton’s arms and whined, “Mom, dad, Miss Reed wants to lock me with these two, asserting I was their daughter. So, they wouldn’t believe me no matter what I said. The test result will speak for me.”
Trenton and Mrs. Gardner looked at each other and nodded.
“That’s a good idea.” Trenton agreed.
Hayden’s brows furrowed, “Amber, did they have a paternity test?”
“Yes,” Amber pursed her lips and replied to him.
Hayden was surprised, “Why? She was a crazy woman!”
Amber tapped her finger on the armrest of her wheelchair. “Yes, I don’t understand.”
Judy wasn’t Trenton’s daughter, but she took the paternity test. There must be secrets behind this.
Otherwise, Judy would never do this.
Jared was the only one who knew Makayla’s secret. He peered down at Amber with narrowed eyes, and opened his mouth to say something, then closed it.
An awkward silence blanketed the room. Even Toby and his wife stood cowering on the side.
They wouldn’t speak if these big shots fell into an uncomfortable silence.
The laboratory door opened after quite a while. Violet walked out with Trenton’s assistant, followed by a staff member of the institution.
The staff member held a document in his hand. Everyone knew what it was.
Trenton and Mrs. Gardner immediately stood up and urged, “What’s the results?”
Amber heard Trenton’s words and quickly patted the armrest to remind Hayden. “Judy’s test results came out. Quickly!”
Jared had moved ahead of Hayden.
He wanted to see if Amber was Trenton’s daughter as he had guessed.
Trenton stretched out to take the document in the staff’s hand, but someone snatched it away before he could touch the document.
“Who?” Trenton was overwhelmed and turned his head.
His expression softened when he saw Jared. “It’s you?”
What else could he do other than let him take the document?
Not even the Gardner family at its prime was a match for the Farrell family, let alone the Gardner family today.
So, Trenton had to compromise in front of Jared.
“Mr. Farrell, isn’t it inappropriate to take away my documents? You’re on Amber’s side. What if you change the content? We never know.” Trenton said with a disgusted glance at Amber, who was sitting in the wheelchair across from him.
Amber raised her eyebrows.
This sounded familiar! Amber said this to Trenton’s assistant before.
Did he say it on purpose?
Now he was using the same comments on Jared, who came with Amber.
Amber didn’t want to admit she was with Jared, but he was indeed standing on her side. So, Amber couldn’t pretend that nothing had happened. She snorted. “Mr. Gardner, I think you are overly concerned. The document is not as thin as a hair. There’s no way we can do anything to it under your watch, right?”
“You really think Mr. Farrell can change the result with a spell right away?” Hayden sneered.
Trenton seemed angry and embarrassed in the meantime.
He gave it up when he knew he would never win.
Jared opened the document and turned over the pages to the last. His grip on the paper tightened as he read ‘Probability of paternity: 100%’. He was right…
Amber was Trenton and Mrs. Gardner’s daughter.
Jared already had an answer before, but he held on to a shred of hope before doing the paternity test.
Jared wished he wasn’t right, then Amber wouldn’t feel sad if she knew about this.
It was a harsh reality that Amber was Trenton and Mrs. Gardner’s daughter.
If Amber knew her relationship with Trenton, she might do something stupid since the two are sworn enemies for a while.
Trenton stole Goldstone’s technology, forced the technicians to death, almost brought the company to bankruptcy, and even caused Hugo’s death six years ago. These feuds made Amber hate Trenton, and she wished to kill Trenton to make amends to Hugo.
Amber would shift from Hugo’s daughter to his enemy’s daughter, and she was the most suffering victim here when she was caught between the Reed and Gardner families.
Amber couldn’t lay a hand on her biological father and would never revenge on the Gardner family. Then she must end her life to make up for Hugo on behalf of Trenton.
“How it is?” Amber and Hayden asked as Jared lost in thought.
Jared slightly tilted his head in silence.
Hayden tsked impatiently and went forward. “Give it to me. Let me see it.”
Trenton and his wife waited in annoyance because the document was in Jared’s hand.
But unexpectedly, Hayden snatched their document.
They dared not offend Hayden as well.
Makayla flashed a triumphant smile and acted with no surprise because she knew the result.
