Hypnotizing Love
Chapter 144 Bitten by a Snake

"Stop, Logan. Apologize to Makenna quickly." Jared frowned and urged impatiently.

Logan knew that he was wrong and lowered her head, "I'm sorry."

He apologized with unwillingness.

Jared looked indifferent, "Logan, where's your sincerity?"

Logan pouted and raised his voice, "I'm sorry, Makenna. Is this okay?"

"Okay, okay." Makenna quickly waved her hand with a smile, indicating that she had forgiven him.

Logan snorted, turned around, and walked not far away, sulking alone.

Looking at his back, Jared's eyes darkened. Then, he looked at Makenna beside him and said, "I'm sorry, Makenna. Logan doesn't know better. You..."

"It's all right. I didn't take it to heart." Makenna smiled.

Jared relaxed his brows and asked, "By the way, did it hurt?"

"No." Makenna shook her head.

Jared raised his chin slightly and said, "That's good."

"Hey sweetheart, where are you going?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Cole's loud voice.

Jared subconsciously turned to look at Amber.

Amber was walking toward a nearby stream, "I'm going to wash my face."

"Oh, then be careful. Don't fall into the stream." Cole reminded her.

Amber hesitated and rolled her eyes at him, "The stream is so shallow. I'm not gonna get drown, Idiot."

Cole chuckled, "I'm just worried about you."

"Okay, I'll be back soon." Amber turned her head back and continued to walk forward.

Jared saw the interaction between the two of them, and his eyes were full of displeasure.

Makenna, who was standing by his side, knew that he was jealous. She couldn't help biting her lower lip.

"Interesting, it's really interesting." Not far away, Hayden looked at these people with a smile on his face.

"Jared, let me wash my hands too." At this time, Makenna suddenly said to Jared.

Jared looked at Amber, who was squatting by the stream, and did not immediately agree, "Let's go later until Amber finished washing."

Right now, he was completely worried about letting Makenna and Amber staying together.

It was not because he was worried about Amber, but because he was worried about Makenna. No one knew when her second personality would appear.

"But my hands are full of sweat, and I don't feel comfortable about it." Makenna spread out her palms and showed it to Jared.

Jared looked at her wet palms and still did not agree, "Just wait for a bit longer."

"All right." Makenna lowered her head in disappointment.

If Jared had seen her like this before, his heart would have softened.

But at this moment, he was not touched at all. He even felt that her every move did not have such a great impact on him as before. On the contrary, it seemed that Amber... Thinking of this, Jared looked at her back with a meaningful look.

"Brother, come here." In the distance, Logan waved at Jared.

"I'll go and have a look." Jared said to Makenna.

Makenna nodded, "Go ahead."

Jared nodded and walked towards Logan, "Why did you call me?"

"I have something to tell you." Logan smiled mysteriously.

Makenna looked at the two brothers who were talking. She didn't know if Logan was speaking ill of her.

But whether it was or not, she didn't care.

It was just ill words. She had a lot of ways to convince Jared not to believe that.

Makenna curled her lips, withdrew her gaze, and walked towards the stream.

Amber had already washed her face and was squatting by the stream with makeup mirrors to reapplied makeup.

Makenna walked over and squatted down three or four meters away from her.

As Makenna put her hand into the cold stream, she turned around and greeted Amber with a smile, "Miss Reed."

Amber squinted at her, but did not respond. She closed the mirror and put it in the bag next to her. She was ready to wash her hands and leave.

Makenna understood Amber's actions and did not stop her.

After all, she was just here to wash her hands. She did not intend to do anything to Amber.

First of all, there was no shelter in this place. If anything happened, Jared and the others would know it.

If she were to attack Amber here, she would be digging her own grave. The loss outweighed the gain.

After Amber finished washing her hands, Amber wiped her hands with a handkerchief and stood up. She picked up her bag and was about to leave.

Makenna glanced out of the corner of her eye and suddenly saw a black snake coiled at the branch behind Amber.

The snake had already raised its neck and was sticking out its tongue. It stared at Amber with a pair of cold snake eyes, as if it would bite her at any time. Seeing this scene, Makenna was startled and almost cried out.

But soon, she covered her mouth and quickly calmed down. At the same time, a plan came to her mind.

With so many people staring at her, it was indeed difficult for her to do anything to Amber, but it did not mean that she could not use a snake to deal with Amber. Thinking of this, Makenna narrowed her eyes, stood up abruptly, and shouted, "Miss Reed!"

Amber heard her voice and stopped subconsciously.

The snake behind her was also stimulated by her and Makenna's actions.

After the snake shrank its neck, it bounced up from the branch and pounced at Amber's neck.

Seeing that the snake was about to land and give her a bite on her neck, Makenna's smile grew brighter.

But at this moment, Stella's extremely urgent voice came, "Ms. Reed, squat down!"

Although Amber didn't know what was going on, she didn't hesitate when she heard her terrified tone and obediently squatted down.

Because of Amber suddenly squatted down, the snake flew over her head, landing on Makenna.

Makenna turned to look at the snake on her shoulder. She was so scared that her face turned pale. She shrank her body and screamed, "Ah!" Because of her sudden movement, the snake directly bit her neck, fell into the stream and escaped instantly.

It happened so quickly that no one could react.

When Jared and the others arrived, they saw Makenna rolling her eyes and faint. "Makenna!" Jared was nervous. He quickly walked over and helped Makenna up. Cole also came to Amber, "Baby, what's wrong?"

Cole was still in shock. She opened her mouth but could not make a sound.

Finally, Stella replied, "It's a snake. Ms. Reed was almost bitten by the snake."

"What! A snake?" Cole was shocked and quickly looked at Amber carefully. His face was full of tension, "Baby, have you been bitten?"

Although Jared was holding Makenna in his arms, his gaze fell on Amber.

Amber shook her head, "I'm fine. I'm not the one being bitten. It's Gardner."

"That's good, that's good." Cole patted his chest, "As long as it's not you. As for the others..."

He looked at Makenna with gloating eyes, "You deserve it!"

"Shut up!" Amber nudged Cole with her elbow, indicating him to be careful.

Jared's face fell.

He had intended to teach Cole a lesson, but when he saw Amber's action, he gave up.

"Jared, hurry up and see where Makenna has been bitten." At this time, Hayden reminded him.

Jared lowered his head and checked. He found traces of being bitten by a snake on Makenna's neck. The two bloody holes made his hair stand on end. Logan swallowed and said, "Is this poisonous?"
