Chapter 307 Makenna Was Arrested
“What do you mean?” Makenna’s heart skipped a beat. She felt highly uneasy now.
Makayla pulled out the brand-new phone that Mrs. Gardner had bought her and shook it. “Before I entered the ward, I had seen the hacker who helped Ms. Reed upload the evidence that you had slandered Ms. Reed. It was two video clips. How interesting! You admitted it personally to hire the six men to rape Ms. Reed.”
“What?” Makenna’s expression changed dramatically. Her hands and feet went cold.
“Give me the phone!” She grabbed Makayla’s phone.
Makayla didn’t stop her, looking at her with a faint smile.
Makenna gripped the phone tightly and watched the videos mentioned by Makayla.
Watching them, Makenna felt a boom in her mind as if there was thunder in her mind. She gaped, and her mind went blind.
“How… How could it be possible?” Makenna’s hands loosened. The phone dropped on her quilt.
However, she seemed not to feel it at all. She looked at the floor with an agape face. She had only one idea in her mind. She was exposed, and she was so doomed.
Looking at her, Makayla had a gloating smile. “Look. Like I said, you have no chance at all. The whole world has known it. It wasn’t Ms. Reed who wanted to set you up and found the six men to bully you. Instead, it was you who wanted to set Ms. Reed up and hired the six men. Besides, you slandered her earlier today. The two crimes could let you stay in jail for several years.”
When talking about that, she seemed to recall something. She cleared her ear with her little finger and continued, “By the way, a lot of netizens mentioned the police station online, asking them to come over to arrest you. The police station replied that they were on the way. You’ll be arrested officially soon. I guess they are arriving soon.”
As soon as Makayla finished speaking, the ward door was opened.
Trenton and his wife entered first.
Trenton looked distraught. Mrs. Gardener wept, looking so upset.
Several policemen in uniform with a pair of handcuffs followed them, striding to the bed.
Makayla didn’t look as arrogant as earlier. Pointing at the policemen and then at Makenna, she faked being confused and asked, “Mom, Dad, this is…”
“Come here, Makayla.” Mrs. Gardner waved at her.
Makayla answered. She looked at Makenna and walked to her mother.
Only several policemen were standing next to the bed. The leader was the policeman who had come to file the case during the daytime.
He reached the handcuffs and looked at Makenna expressionlessly. “Ms. Gardner, you must come with us.”
Makenna finally returned to her senses. Looking at those policemen and the silver handcuffs, she panicked entirely. She shook her head hard. “No! I won’t go. I won’t!”
“It’s not up to you,” said the policeman, putting the handcuffs on her wrists.
The icy handcuffs reached Makenna’s skin. She shivered when feeling the chill. The massive panic in her heart almost suffocated her.
While struggling, she looked over at Trenton and his wife. She yelled while crying, “Dad! Mom! Help me!”
Trenton directly looked away, ignoring her.
Help her?
The evidence was solid. How could he help her? If he did, he would face interference with public function and be taken away by the police as well.
Right then, The Trident Group had already made him stressed enough. If he had been taken away, it would be worse.
He also needed to think about how to stabilize his company’s stock market after the public knew that the policeman had arrested Makenna.
When Makenna saw Trenton’s reaction, her heart sank. Then she looked over at Mrs. Gardner.
Mrs. Gardner dared not look into Makenna’s eyes. While weeping, she looked away.
Even Trenton had no way to save Makenna. She was just a housewife. What could she do?
Seeing neither the Gardner couple was willing to help her, Makenna felt disappointed. Meanwhile, hatred surged in her heart.
The Gardner couple said they loved her and told her she was their only daughter. They had promised to love and protect her for a whole life.
However, Makayla returned home, and they had forgotten their promises to her. Moreover, they wanted to give her up. Makenna was so reluctant.
Seeing Makenna’s hatred, Makayla curled up her lips into a smile in Mrs. Gardner’s arms.
‘Go ahead to hate them, Makenna Gardner!’ her inner voice said.
The more Makenna hated their parents, the less she would love them. After their parents had stopped loving Makenna, the Gardner couple would belong to her only.
Makenna was taken away by the policeman.
Since she hadn’t recovered, she was pushed to leave on the wheelchair.
Outside the hospital, reporters had already arrived. When they recorded the scene that Makenna was taken away by the police, there was an uproar online. All the netizens cheered.
After all, before the two video clips had been uploaded, they had taken Makenna’s side. They pitied Makenna and hated Amber.
However, after the two video clips had been uploaded, they understood that Amber hadn’t set Makenna up. It was Makenna who wanted to set up Amber. However, she failed and was mistaken as Amber by those six men.
Anyway, she had a dose of her own drug. In the end, she still hadn’t given up and wanted to slander Amber.
All the netizens who had watched her live broadcast hated and disgusted Makenna as much as how much they have pitied them.
Of course, they didn’t hate Makenna for framing and slandering Amber. Instead, they hated Makenna for using their compassion to slander Amber.
For a moment, all the netizens scolded Makenna.
No hacker could help her, so those netizens weren’t afraid to be exposed. Hence, they cursed Makenna as mercilessly as possible, more fiercely than scolding Amber earlier.
The Trident Group suffered severe stock market turmoil. Trenton had to rush to the company overnight to hold a general meeting of the shareholders.
At Kelsington Bay.
Reading the apologies on her social media page, Amber checked Makenna’s social media page. She curled up her lips into a smile.
Later, she dialed Elias’s phone. “Makenna Gardner has been taken away by the police. I believe she’ll turn you in later. You…”
“I know what you want to tell me. No worries. I’ll be fine,” Elias said, pushing up his glasses.
Upon hearing it, Amber nodded. “If that’s the case, I’ll go straight to the point. Thank you for shooting the video clips. Otherwise, it’s quite difficult to prove my innocence.”
“It’s nothing,” Elias chuckled and answered.
Later, they exchanged a few words and ended the conversation.
However, as soon as Amber put down the cell phone, it rang again.
She looked up to check the caller ID, only to find Jeremy’s ID. She hung it up and dialed the number back with her new phone card.
“Amber?” Jeremy wasn’t sure and called.
Amber nodded. “It’s me.”
“Amber, why did you…”
“Just in case. Cole should have told you, right?” Amber said.
Jeremy was silent for a few seconds. Then he spoke, “Yes.”
“You are awesome! You’ve become so competent without telling me. If you hadn’t told me earlier, I wouldn’t know the fox mask man is you,” Amber said, rubbing between her eyebrows.
Jeremy smiled gently. “I’m sorry, Amber. I didn’t mean to scare you, so I hid from you. Are you angry with me?”
“How could it be possible? You’ve helped me. How can I be angry? Jere, can you tell me honestly? Will the police find you?” Amber asked seriously while frowning.
Jeremy looked solemn. “No, they won’t. My technique is ranked in the top three worldwide. The police can’t catch me at all.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Upon hearing it, Amber breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good, then. I’m relieved. By the way, why are you calling me?”
