Chapter 156 Makayla Is Still Alive
Chapter 156 Makayla Is Still Alive
"Yes, your eyes are almost the same." The manager looked at his reddened hand and replied with a
forced smile.
Mrs. Gardner's eyes turned red suddenly and tears flowed down. She said, "She's Makayla. She's
definitely Makayla. Makayla is still alive. Where is that girl now?"
She asked in a trembling voice.
The manager replied, "She's gone, not long ago. She might still be in the mall."
As soon as the manager finished speaking, she saw Mrs. Gardner running out of the store in a hurry
without even taking her bag. She was looking for a girl who might be her eldest daughter in this mall.
However, Mrs. Gardner searched the entire mall but still failed to find the girl who wore her daughter's
necklace and had eyes similar to her daughter's.
Mrs. Gardner returned to the DT store in a daze.
The manager served her a glass of water. "Mrs. Gardner, have you found her?"
Mrs. Gardner shook her head in disappointment. "No."
"It's alright. Since she is in Olkmore, I believe that you will meet her one day." The manager comforted
Mrs. Gardner with a smile.
She did not know what the relationship between Mrs. Gardner and this Makayla girl.
However, as Mrs. Gardner valued her, it seemed that their relationship was very close.
"Thank you." Mrs. Gardner forced a smile, took out her card to pay the bill, and hurried back to the
Gardner family with the bracelet.
"Trenton!" Mrs. Gardner shouted as soon as she entered.
Trenton came down from upstairs. "Didn't you go to the mall? Why did you come back so soon?"
"Trenton, Makayla is still alive." Mrs. Gardner looked at Trenton and said excitedly.
Trenton almost slipped. "What did you say?"
He held the banister and looked at Mrs. Gardner in shock.
Mrs. Gardner clenched her fists tightly. "Makayla is still alive! Our eldest daughter is still alive."
"Nonsense." Trenton frowned. "I'm afraid you've met a crook again. Over these years, there have
always been crooks saying that our daughter is still alive. In fact, they're here to cheat money."
"It's different this time. Makayla is wearing a necklace, similar to this one..."Mrs. Gardner quickly took
out the necklace from her neck and said, "The manager of the DT store told me that the girl took the
same necklace there and asked about it. And the girl's eyes are exactly the same as mine. Trenton, I'm
sure that the girl must be Makayla."
Trenton was also stunned. "But how is that possible? Hugo Reed drowned Makayla to death. We all
saw it."
"Yes, but didn't the police tell us that Makayla's body was not found? Maybe Makayla didn't die after
being thrown into the river at that time, but was saved by someone else. Otherwise, how do we explain
that a girl with the same eyes as mine appeared with our daughter's necklace?" Mrs. Gardner gripped
the necklace tightly.
Trenton put his hand on his forehead. "Give me a minute."
"Dad, mom, what are you talking about?" At this time, Makenna also came down from upstairs. She
was curious when seeing Mrs. Garner and Trenton acting strangely.
Mrs. Gardner held Makenna's hand. "Makenna, your big sister isn't dead. She's still alive."
"What?" Makenna was shocked. "Mom, you said Makayla is alive?"
"Yes. She's in Olkmore." Mrs. Gardner nodded happily.
Makenna lowered her eyes which were filled with malice.
Makayla didn't die. This was simply too shocking.
Moreover, seeing her mom so happy who seemed to be preparing to bring Makayla back, Makenna felt
fretful. If that was true, then in the future, her mom would only care about Makayla and ignore her.
Makenna thought, "No, I can't let Makayla come back. If she comes back, I have to share with her my
inheritance rights, the property of the Gardner family, and the love of my parents."
"I would never let such a thing happen."
Makenna bit her lower lip. She asked tentatively, "That's great. Mom, where is Makayla now?"
Makenna wanted to find out Makayla's whereabouts, so that she could get rid of Makayla before her
parents found her.
The lights in Mrs. Gardner's eyes dimmed when she heard Makenna's question. "I happened to know
that your sister is still alive today, but I still don't know where she is."
"Well." Makenna nodded and frowned.
Mom and dad hadn't been fooled, would they?
Regardless, she had to figure it out. If the information was not real, then it would be fine.
If it was true, she still had to remove Makayla. She had no feelings for this so-called sister.
Thinking of this, Makenna asked again, "Mom, how did you know that my sister is still alive?"
"It's this necklace." Mrs. Gardner said, and then told Makenna what had happened in the DT Store.
Hearing that, Makenna slowly clenched her fists.
It seemed that the woman could be Makayla.
She hadn't expected Makayla to be so lucky that she hadn't died.
"Mom, I'm going to the Farrell's Mansion for dinner tonight. I'm leaving now." Makenna lowered her
eyelids and pulled out her hand.
"I had to find Makayla first.
Otherwise, it would be too late for the parents to find out."
Mrs. Gardner nodded. "OK."
Makenna kissed Mrs. Gardner's face and walked towards the door.
After Makenna left, Mrs. Gardner looked at Trenton and said, "Honey, let's hurry up and find Makayla. I
don't know how she has been in the past over 20 years. When I think that Makayla may suffer a lot, my
heart can't help but ache."
Mrs. Gardner pounded her chest.
Trenton held her in his arms with distress. "Don't worry, I will definitely find our daughter and let her
return to our family."
"But I'm worried that Makayla won't come back. What if she thinks that we don't want her? What if she
hates us?" Mrs. Gardner said with expectation and fear.
"No. Since Makayla took the necklace and asked, it means that she must also want to find us." Trenton
replied.
Mrs. Gardner shook her head. "According to The manager, Makayla already knows that you asked
someone to design the necklace. Makayla should know that we are her parents. I am worried that she
is unwilling to take the initiative to come to us."
Trenton sighed. "Let's wait for a few days first. Maybe Makayla will take the initiative to find us. If not,
we take actions again. We can use your necklace to find her. Post it online. Makayla will understand
when she sees that we are looking for her. We didn't abandon her. Maybe she will come."
"Yes." Mrs. Gardner nodded.
Amber didn't know that what she did had attracted the attention of the Gardner family.
After leaving the mall, she drove to the hospital to visit Lady Georgia and ask her if she knew what had
happened between the Reed family and the Gardner family more than 20 years ago.
Amber didn't expect the car to turn off halfway, and the people for a car towing service didn't show up
for a long time.
So Amber squatted on the side of the road, suffering from the cold, and waited for nearly two hours.
"Mr. Farrell, I saw Miss Reed." In the black Maybach, Ben said in surprise when he saw Amber on the
roadside ahead.
In the backseat, Jared opened his eyes and looked out of the window. When he saw Amber, his brows
furrowed.
What was she doing?
It was so cold out there that she was rubbing her arms. Why was she still squatting there?
"Turn around and drive over." Jared ordered.
Ben did as he instructed.
The car arrived in front of Amber. Ben stopped the car, wound down the window, and said to Amber, This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Miss Reed, please get in the car."
