Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378 The Secret of the Red Mole

Even though she couldn't see things, Amber accurately landed her ‘gaze’ on Sharon's face.

Sharon was exhausted. Her head span and thrummed with pain as if it was about to explode.

She was lying on the interrogation desk, struggling to lift her eyelids to focus on the four people opposite.

Sharon only recognized the woman in the wheelchair.

She had seen Amber from the photo that Makayla gave her.

Sharon panted as she responded, "I know what you're up to. Forget it! You will never ever get anything from me."

Makayla would not save her son if Sharon broke the promise.

Her son was Sharon's only family, so she couldn't watch him die on the hospital bed.

But the boy did not even know that Sharon was his mother.

Amber raised her brows at Sharon.

She hadn't even asked and the woman just cut her out. This was bad.

Amber squeezed the armrest of the wheelchair with controlled irritation. She spoke after feeling better, "Are you sure you won't say anything? You might have mitigation if you say it, but you might spend the rest of your life in jail if you don't."

"I know. Whatever. I won't say anything.” Sharon laughed it off. It was a bitter and tired smile.

The fury rose in Amber's throat, making her headache worse than before.

Jared was the first to notice that something was wrong with Amber and put his hand on her shoulder. He gently squeezed it, saying in a concerned tone, "Take it easy. Now, take a deep breath and process your feelings.”

Amber knew what would happen if she didn't calm down. She couldn't care less about Jared crossing the line, closed her eyes, and did as she was told.

Cole stared at Jared's hand and urged, "Hey, get your hands off Amber's. What are you trying to do?"

He was going to go forward to take Jared's hand away.

Jared removed his hand before Cole came.

Cole stumbled and almost fell down.

Ben caught him and asked with a smile, "Mr. Lyon, is everything okay?"

"Why do you care?" Cole grunted and pushed Ben away to stand back beside Amber.

Ben looked at him and shook his head helplessly.

Mr.

Lyon was as hothead as a capricious child.

Jared ignored Ben and Cole. She narrowed her eyes at Sharon. “Are you sure you don't want to talk?"

Sharon buried his head in silence. It was clear that she wouldn't help Amber.

Jared sealed his lips into a sneer. “You can keep your mouth shut forever, but I'm afraid your family will..."

“What do you want?" Sharon was infuriated. She suddenly raised her head up with a panic look on her face.

Even Amber and Cole threw a surprising look at Jared.

They didn't expect Jared to use Sharon's family as a threat.

Although it was something less moral, they had to admit that it worked.

And Sharon seemed to lose her grip.

“You know what I want. You'd better be good and tell me everything. Otherwise, I'll lay hands on your family." Jared's eyes narrowed, and his voice sounded emotionless.

Sharon shivered and looked at Jared like he was a devil.

Jared was satisfied. He lowered his eyes and asked coldly, “Tell me why."

Sharon's mouth opened for a long time before she spat out hoarsely, “Because... her existence was a threat to someone."

"Bullshit!" Cole lost his cool and pounded on the desk. "A threat? Everyone is unique, and Amber is not some devil. Who is this someone?"

Jared and Amber also felt disgusted by Sharon's words.

Anxiety began to rise inside Amber.

Elias was correct. Her red mole on the wrist really threatened someone.

"I can't say that," Sharon shook her head and replied to Cole.

Jared's eyebrows twisted up in dissatisfaction. He was about to speak when his phone rang.

Jared took it out and his expression changed after glancing at the caller ID. He looked up at Amber, "I'm going out to take a call."

Amber nodded her head in response.

Ben wheeled Jared out.

Cole closed the door and turned to stare at Sharon. “What? Have you forgotten what Jared said? You should give an honest account for the sake of your family!"

Sharon shrank back and she replied coyly, “I'm sorry, I really can't. I can tell you what you want to know, but not her name. Please, don't make me."

Her tears continued to flow down her face.

She couldn't break the deal no matter how Jared threatened her, even used her family as bait.

Her son was waiting for the hospital fee.

Sharon was gambling. She hoped they wouldn't find out about her son, who was kidnapped since birth and was found some days ago. Sharon didn't tell him because she was scared.

Now she was alone, and no one knew she had a son.

So there was a 50-50 chance that they couldn't find out about her son. Sharon didn't have to yield.

Her son would be dead meat if she told these people about Makayla.

But if she kept her mouth shut, her son still stood half a chance to live.

"Are you kidding me?" Cole gasped and laughed. He grabbed Sharon's collar and lifted her up, “Are you fooling us around?"

Sharon closed her eyes, whimpering.

Amber pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a little tired, “Enough, Cole. Put her down."

"Amber..." Cole hesitated.

Amber repeated, “Put her down. We're at the police station. Do you want to be with her tonight?"

Cole stopped talking and threw her back into the chair.

Amber looked at Sharon, slumping into the chair like a ghost, and said in a frosty tone, “Okay, I don't force you. I'm asking you was it your idea or someone else's idea?”

“It was my idea,” Sharon nodded repeatedly, "I planned it myself. I found the red mole on your wrist and knew it would threaten someone who was the most important to me. So, I hit you."

"Is that so?" Amber pursed her lips and beckoned toward Cole.

Cole leaned down, “What's wrong?"

“Look at her face. Tell me if she's lying.” Amber lowered her voice and instructed.

Cole nodded and stared at Sharon.

After a while, Cole responded, “She didn't seem to make this up."

Amber squeezed her palms.

So, all of this was Sharon's plan. Was no one else involved?

“One last question," Amber took a breath and asked, “What is the secret about the red mole on my wrist? Why would it be a threat to that person? And how does it work?"
