Honey, I Don't Dare Again

Chapter 63 Trenton’s Rage

Trenton returned home half an hour later.

The housekeeper came up to him and Trenton handed him his coat. “Where are madam and miss?”

“They are in the room,” the housekeeper replied, putting the coat on her arm.

Trenton grunted as a reply and went upstairs.

Inside the room, Mrs. Gardner and Makenna were sitting at the end of the bed, looking at an album next to each other.

Makenna pointed at herself in the picture. “Mom, do you still remember this picture?”

Mrs. Gardner caressed her long hair lovingly and replied, “Of course. This photo was taken when you were six. I still remember when you played hide and seek back then. I couldn’t find you anywhere and I was scared to death. I thought you were missing. It turned out you had hidden in the attic and fallen asleep.”

“I remember that. When I woke up and came down from the attic, I saw you crying and you had even called the police.” Makenna recalled.

Mrs. Gardner’s smile faded a little, and there was a trace of hatred in her eyes.

Why did she call the police when she couldn’t find her? Because she thought her little daughter had been kidnapped by Hugo Reed too.

But luckily, it was just a false alarm in the end.

Makenna turned to the next page. A yellowing photo suddenly fell to the ground from the album.

She stooped and picked it up. There was a baby girl, which was about a few months old, in the picture. She was grinning, looking extremely adorable, which would soften people’s heart at first sight.

But for some reasons, Makenna didn’t like her at all. Instead, she held a bit of hostility and even hatred towards the baby in the

picture.

However, she didn’t show it. She gave the picture to Mrs. Gardner, smiled and asked, “Mom, is this my elder sister?”

Mrs. Gardner caressed the picture and nodded with teary eyes. “Yes, she is your sister, Makayla.”

Seeing Mrs. Gardner miss the baby girl so much, Makenna couldn’t help feeling jealous.

She took the photo back and put it into the album again.

She then took Mrs. Gardner’s arm, placed her head on her mother’s shoulder and said in a hushed voice, “Alright, mom, you become sad every time you mention Makayla, so let’s not mention her anymore. I believe Makayla won’t want to see you unhappy either.”

“A dead person dared stealing mother’s attention from me? she thought to herself.

No way!

“Okay, let’s not mention her anymore.” Mrs. Gardner said with a doting smile. She didn’t know Makenna’s real intention, but thought that her little daughter was worried about her being too upset.

Just then, the door opened and Trenton came in with a long face.

Makenna spotted him first. She released Mrs. Gardner’s arm and waved at him. “Hi dad.”

However, Trenton only took a glance at her and he ignored her.

Makenna’s smile stiffened, and she bit her lip with grievance. “Dad, what have I done wrong?”

“Oh, honey.” Mrs. Gardner looked at her husband discontentedly. “Why are you so cold to Makenna? She didn’t offend you.”

“She didn’t offend me? Ask her what she’s done!” Trenton pointed at Makenna.

Mrs. Gardner immediately looked at Makenna.

Makenna looked puzzled too.

Noticing that she really had no idea about it, Trenton decided to cut to the chase, “I’ve already known about your little plot to harm

Amber in the resort.”

Makenna immediately evaded his gaze. “Dad, how did you know?”

“How did I know?” Trenton snorted. “Someone has posted the picture of that land on the Internet and meant to embarrass me. What do you say? For God’s sake, can’t you make a better plan next time? Now someone’s got the goods on you and threatened us with that. We lost the land because of you…”

He was so enraged that he couldn’t continue his words.

Makenna lowered her head, knowing that she was wrong.

Mrs. Gardner hugged her daughter tightly and she snapped, “Alright, alright, it’s just a piece of land. Why are you being so fierce to
