Chapter 18 The Big Gift

There were people all around watching the fun, but Amber ignored them.

She just looked at Jared who was on one knee, with a wry smile on her face, then turned to Mrs. Gardner and spoke in an offhand manner, “First of all, I‘m sorry I came uninvited. Secondly, who can guarantee that the video that went viral online is real? You said you have a score to settle with me from six years ago. Well, I have to tell you, I was wrongly accused.”

As she finished, she darted her eyes on Makenna.

Makenna’s face went pale and she hid behind Jared.

The crowd saw the scene and blamed Amber.

“This woman is unscrupulous. She hit Makenna with her car six years ago. But she has the nerves to come to the party!”

“Yeah, look how she scared Miss Gardner! She‘s gone too far.”

Mrs. Gardner was in no mood for Amber’s nonsense when her daughter was scared, “You’re a sharp-tongued girl. Since you say you’ve been wrongly accused, then go and explain yourself to the police.”

Mrs. Gardner was about to make a phone call when Jared stopped her.
