Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 395

Taking a deep breath, Makayla suppressed her anger. She put on an upset and shocked look on her face. "Ms. Reed, what do you mean? Do you believe her and think I've attacked you for real?"

Amber didn't answer.

Makayla hurriedly shook her head. "No, I haven't. Ms. Reed, I work for you and Mr. Cohen. How could I attack you? It doesn't make any sense, does it? Please believe me, Ms. Reed. Please believe me, Mr. Cohen. I've never done it."

Hayden snorted and ignored her.

When Makayla saw his attitude, her heart skipped a beat. She panicked more.

"Mr. Cohen..." Makayla parted her lips and called Hayden in a low voice.

She could tell that Mr. Cohen disgusted her and was not in the mood to talk to her.

This feared her more than his dislike.

If he disliked her, it meant he was still willing to spread a glance at her.

Now, he wasn't in the mood to talk to her. It meant he was unwilling to spare a glance at her anymore.

At this moment, Makayla started to regret it. She regretted why she wasn't cautious when meeting Sharon. She should have worn a mask.

Hence, even if Sharon ratted her out, she wouldn't be found. In that case, Mr. Cohen wouldn't have disliked her or ignored her.

Makayla pinched her hands tightly and thought to herself in anger.

Amber said again, "No. I'm a hundred percent sure you've done it, so I can't believe you. Do you know how we manage to find you? According to Sharon's description of your appearance, an artist painted your portrait and showed her. Hence, we were sure it was you."

Makayla widened her eyes.

It turned out to be like this.

She had never expected there was such a forensic method.

Sure enough, she still had a lot to learn.

"Ms. Reed, even though, for a portrait..."

"Stop refuting. I know what you want to say," Amber raised her hand to interrupt her again.

She curled up her lips into an ironical smile and continued, "You want to say the portrait can't be the evidence because the artist could purposely draw your face, and Sharon intentionally slandered you, right?"

"I..." Makayla's expression changed. She couldn't utter a word.

It meant Amber had seen through her mind.

Amber snorted. "All right. Since the portrait cannot be the evidence, I can show you the solid evidence. After you attacked me, you went to Sharon's house and stayed there for a long while. Your fingerprints had been left there. Although it's troublesome if I'm willing to pay for the forensic professionals to her house for testing, do you think they can find your fingerprints or not?"

"I agree with Amber. Once your fingerprints are found in Sharon's house, it'll prove her accusation is true. It was you who attacked Amber and asked Sharon to be your scapegoat," Hayden echoed, rubbing his chin.

Makayla's face paled instantly.

She recalled taking off her gloves when in Sharon's house.

Her gloves were stained by Amber's blood, so she took them off and went to the bathroom to rinse her hands. She had touched a lot of places in the bathroom, so her fingerprints could be found there.

Thinking of that, Makayla started trembling. She had an unconcealed fear on her face.

Seeing that, Hayden said coldly, "You seem to have admitted your crime. Tell us. Why did you betray us? Why did you attack Amber?"

"Didn't you hear what Sharon said earlier? She attacked me because she believed I was a threat to her identity," said Amber.

Hayden frowned. "Her identity? What identity does she have? Does she think you will steal her identity as Judy Lashley?"

Amber rolled her eyes. "What are you talking about? She thought I would be a threat to her identity as Makayla Gardner. Because I know her current identity is fake, and she fears I will expose her."

"That doesn't make sense, Amber. If she's afraid you will expose her, she should have killed you. After all, only the dead won't talk. Besides, you are not the only one who knows this fact, so do I. She should have hit me, then," Hayden said thoughtfully.

Amber's hand knocked on the armrest. "Well, you'd better ask her this question directly."

She turned in Judy's direction and said, "Judy Lashley, you attacked me because you were afraid that I would expose your real identity, right? Besides, why did you erase my red mole? You'd better tell the truth. I may consider mercy on you for your honesty's sake."

Makayla looked down to cover the sorrow in her eyes.

After a long while, she suddenly raised her head, looking as if she didn't care about anything. With a sneer, she said, "Yes. I was afraid you would expose my real identity, so I attacked you."

Anyway, she had admitted her crime, so she didn't fear to speak those words directly.

"Are you out of your mind, Judy Lashley? We've found you to be a spy in the Gardner family. We must be crazy to expose you." Hayden patted the desk in anger.

Makayla was trembling. "You won't expose me now. How about in the future? After I help you finish the task, you'll definitely expose me and force me to leave the Gardner family."

Hayden was goggle-eyed. "So, you did it because you're unwilling to leave the Gardner family..."

"Right. Since you asked me to be Makayla Gardner, you should let me be her all the time, right?" Makayla said her real thought.

Hayden was literally flabbergasted at her words. "I didn't expect... you think so..."

"All right, Hayden. Haven't I told you so? You don't need to be so shocked. That's how she really thinks so. We brought her into this circle and stimulated the greed in her. She wants to become Makayla Gardner forever and enjoy wealth and glory. That makes sense. After all, humans are always greedy," Amber tugged Hayden's arm and said coldly.

Makayla pinched her hands tightly in silence.

Amber's words were true, and they were also what Makayla really thought.

However, when she listened to those words, Makayla felt a pain in her ear. She even thought that Amber was insulting her purposely and slandering her in Hayden's presence. Makayla believed that her image in Hayden's heart must be ruined completely.

However, she still reminded herself that after she had become more and more outstanding, Hayden would change his impression of her.

The crisis now was just temporary.

"Judy Lashley, the last thing I want to know is what you've been avoiding to answer. It's about my red mole. Why do you have to cut it off from me?" Amber raised her left hand and asked coldly while pointing at the bandage on her wrist.

A dark light flashed through Makayla's eyes quickly. "No secret. A fortune-teller told me to alert anyone with a red mole around me. Otherwise, that person will bring me bad luck. Makenna Gardner has a red mole. Earlier, when I was in the Gardner family, she always bullied me. Occasionally, I saw your red mole in the restaurant, so I wanted to erase it. Because you brought me bad luck, I felt that you would expose my real identity. Hence, I attacked you."

She could admit her ambition to be Makayla Gardner forever. She could also admit her attack on Amber.

However, she would never tell the secret of the red mole.

Once she told others about it, she would be doomed.

"A fortune-teller? Bring you bad luck?" Hayden laughed in anger. "Judy Lashley, when di you become so superstitious. You think I'll buy this bullshit, huh?"
