My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 730 Muddle Through
Makayla did not speak but looked at Mrs. Gardner.
It was obvious that she wanted Mrs. Gardner to go out and talk to Trenton alone.
After Mrs. Gardner realize it, her face turned pale for a moment. Her heart became even more sad, but she still squeezed the corner of her mouth and forced a smile, "Makayla, I'm your mother. Can't I even listen when you talk to your father?"
Makayla turned her head away, avoiding her eyes.
Makayla's behavior made Mrs. Gardner feel as if there was a knife stabbing her fiercely. She felt her heart was broken into pieces by her daughter and she could barely breathe.
Her daughter didn't want her to listen her voice. Her daughter didn't want to look at her. Her daughter didn't even want to talk to her.
She...
Mrs. Gardner began to cry with her face covered.
Trenton, who had always decided not to interfere in the conflict between mother and daughter, frowned when he saw this scene. The way he looked at Makayla was somewhat displeased.
Although he understood that what his wife had said before made his daughter very concerned and angry.
And his daughter went mad at his wife, and he could also turn a blind eye.
Now, had Makayla crossed the line a little too far?
Even though those words were indeed hurtful, his wife's caring and love for daughter was indeed real by any mean, even if it was performed by the wife.
But at least, when Mrs. Gardner couldn't get close to daughter in her heart, she was willing to pretend to love her daughter instead of alienating her daughter directly based on her inner thoughts. He thought that his wife did not really fail her daughter.
So in his mind, the daughter has the right to be angry for a short while... But why does she keep provoking her?
Thinking of this, Trenton's voice to Makayla became much colder, "Enough, Makayla, this is your mother. Even if your mother is at fault, you don't have to hold grudges all the time. At least our mother didn't do anything wrong to you since you came back."
Makayla heard the dissatisfaction in his tone. Her eyes flickered, lowered her head and said nothing.
Trenton ignored her and looked to Mrs. Gardner again. His expression and tone softened a lot, "Okay, you go out first. The mother and the daughter, both of you, calm down. We will discuss whatever you want to argue letter when you both clam down."
Mrs. Gardner looked at Makayla and nodded, "Okay."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the door with constant looking back.
Soon, the door to the ward closed again, leaving only Trenton and Makayla in the ward.
Trenton rubbed his brows and said to Makayla, who still kept her head down, "Makayla, I know you still care about what your mother said before. Your mother was indeed wrong. But her was saying that because you two have been separated for over 20 years. And you have only been back for a few months. That's why your mother couldn't adapt this feeling and has an intimate feeling to you. But she loves you in her heart. Please understand this. Go out, talk to your mother later, and resolve the conflict as soon as possible. It's such a shame for our family to have such conflict."
"I understand now, Dad." Makayla bit her lip and replied softly.
She originally planned to keep her mom guilty for a while. Only in this way would her mother feel more distressed for her in the future.
But now her father was dissatisfied with herself because of her attitude towards her mother, which. She now realized that decades of relationship between her parents was more important than months of relationship between her and father.
Between herself and her mother, Trenton will definitely choose to help her mother.
So if she kept in a stalemate, his father would also dislike him because of his mother. At that time, she will be the one who suffer more losses.
Hearing Makayla's response, Trenton finally nodded with satisfaction. A gratified smile appeared on his old and sickly face, "That's right. Okay, now tell me whatever you want to say."
Makayla clenched her fist, hesitated for a while, and then slowly said, "Dad, are you...suspecting that Ms. Reed is your daughter. And you also sent people to investigate the origin of Ms. Reed... Trenton's expression changed, becoming extremely serious, his old eyes staring at her like an eagle, "How do you know that I have sent someone to investigate?"
Makayla did not hide, "It's Mr. Farrell who called me and tell me. You know, now Mr. Farrell and Ms. Reed are back together. Mr. Farrell cares about everything related to Ms. Reed. Mr. Farrell can certainly notice that you are sending someone to investigate Ms. Reed. When Mr. Farrell knew that you were investigating Ms. Reed and guessing that Ms. Reed was your daughter, he called me and asked me to persuade you to stop the investigation. Ms. Reed can't be your daughter."
"Hmph, he's really nosy." Trenton sneered after hearing this.
Makayla rolled her eyes, then stomped her feet with tears in her eyes. She then started sobbing "Dad, I don't understand. Why do you suspect that Ms. Reed is your daughter? Am I not Makayla? We even did a paternity test... I'm your daughter, isn't it? So why do you think Ms. Reed is your daughter? Or do you think that the paternity test is fake in your mind? That I'm not your biological daughter? You wish your biological daughter was someone else?"
Hearing her complaint, Trenton started to panic and waved his hands quickly, "Makayla... I'm not... I don't... I just saw that the date of Amber's adoption was very close to the date you were taken away, so I doubted it for a while. ..."
"Does it make any difference if the date is close? Will it be more authoritative than a paternity test? You have seen the results of the paternity test. I am the real Makayla, but you still suspect my identity and think someone else is Makayla because of the date. You even urge you men to dig into it. Dad, do you know how sad I feel when you do this?" Makayla interrupted him, crying even harder.
Trenton also knew that he was wrong and felt very guilty to her. After coughing, he quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Makayla, it was daddy's fault. I was also impulsive. I knew I was wrong. This won't happen in the future."
"Promise?" Makayla looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Trenton nodded quickly, "Promise."
Makayla sniffed, "Okay, I'll trust you this time. But you need to withdraw your men immediately and tell them stop investigating any more. If someone knows about it, we will be in a mess."
"Okay, dad will stop the investigation." Trenton said while picking up the phone.
Makayla's eyes flashed, "Then daddy, I'll go out and talk to mom."
"Terrific." Trenton waved.
Makayla wiped the corners of her eyes. The moment she turned around, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, there was no trace of grievance on her face, but relief of what she had achieved.
It seemed that this is over. Daddy's doubts about Amber's identity have also been put aside, and there will be no more investigation.
In this way, her identity can continue to be concealed.
Makayla made an eye, then took out her phone, lowered her head and sent a message out.
After seeing that the message was successfully sent, she then grabbed the door handle and opened the door.
On the other side, Jared noticed the phone vibration in his pocket after finishing a cigarette.
He flicked the cigarette ash, extinguished the cigarette butt, and took out his cell phone.
Seeing the report sent by Makayla, his expression changed slightly.
Afterwards, he nodded slightly, deleted the message, threw the phone in his suit pocket, and returned back to Amber's office.
Amber had already finished the call with Hayden. She was now sitting on the sofa making coffee. When she heard footsteps, she stopped grinding coffee beans, turned to look at where the footsteps came from, and smiled brightly, "Finished with your call?"¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
