Chapter 112
The young lady was driven out by Rodney and called Amber. “The guest drove me out.”
In Amber’s expectation, Rodney drove her out. Tonight, she just wanted to disgust him. According to the description of the young lady, the man Rodney must be very angry. Amber curled his lips. “The man Rodney has mysophobia. He won’t be able to fall asleep tonight, will he?”
Amber was gloating in his heart. Aunt Maleah came up and knocked on the door. “Amber, someone just called and said that something happened to your uncle. He asked you to go and have a look quickly!”
When Amber heard that something had happened to Ashton, he picked up his bag and ran out. When he ran to the roadside to stop the car, a car suddenly rushed out and stood in front of him.
Seeing Rodney, Amber instantly realized that he had been fooled. She got into the car under his gaze. He looked at her darkly for a few minutes and said, “Amber, you’re bold!”
“Why would Mr. Barron say that?” Amber looked at him fearlessly.
“Don’t play dumb! Very good!” Looking at Amber’s innocent look, Rodney gnashed his teeth. “Do you think I can’t find you just because you put me in the blacklist? Dream on!” He handed Amber a mobile phone. “This is what I gave you. You must turn it on 24 hours a day!”
“Thank you very much! In fact, you don’t have to go there in person. Just ask your special assistant to give it to me.” Amber took the phone and put it in his bag.
“Do you think I’m looking for you just to give you my phone?” Rodney sneered.
“Otherwise?” Amber looked at Rodney coldly. “Today is the anniversary of my mother’s death. Is Mr. Barron really worse than a beast?”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Rodney was stunned for a moment. Today was actually the anniversary of Amber’s mother’s death? Damn it. He actually forgot about it! “I…” He didn’t know what to say.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Amber’s mouth. “I took my phone back and will keep it open 24 hours a day. Mr. Barron, please feel free to tell me anything, but today is an exception!” She opened the door and got out of the car after saying that.
Rodney looked at her back, and his heart twitched painfully. When she met him in the past, she was indifferent, but he didn’t know when she began to look at him with hatred. He leaned against the back of the chair and thought about it carefully. Amber’s hatred for him seemed to have begun after his engagement with Celia.
He couldn’t help but think of her phone call that night. She told him not to get engaged to Celia, and she would consider to reunite with him. It must be because of his ruthlessness and indifference that she hated him so much.
Rodney sighed deeply. He deserved it! He actually gave up such a good opportunity.
The next morning, the news of Elliot and Breanna’s engagement in the United States was reported. When Amber opened the door, he heard Celia and Shannon talking loudly in the living room.
“Breanna has such a beautiful background. She matches Elliot very well in all aspects!” It seemed that she was afraid that Amber would not hear Celia, so she deliberately put her voice to the maximum.
Amber’s hand, which was holding the handle of the door, froze. Elliot was engaged to Breanna so soon! It was normal for him to be engaged to another woman, but there was an indescribable feeling in his heart after he heard that.
Celia and Shannon would not give up this good opportunity to provoke Amber. They talked about the grand occasion of Elliot’s engagement.
Amber really wanted to calm down, but she found that she couldn’t calm down. This b*tch and her daughter deliberately made her sad. She opened the door and strode out.
She didn’t know where to go. Amber wandered around aimlessly. She didn’t know how long he had been walking for. She didn’t stop until she felt pain in her feet.
Only then did she realize that she had come out empty-handed. She stretched out her hand and touched her pocket. There were actually a few coins in it. There was no way to get rid of people. It was probably about her current situation.
The news of Elliot’s engagement had come too suddenly. It was only recently that Rodney had learned of it. After hearing about Elliot’s engagement, he felt a burst of relief in his heart.
Compared to Pierce, Elliot was only a strong opponent for him. Pierce was a gentleman and would not use any special means on Amber. However, Elliot was different. He was a person rolling around in the brothels and would never play by common sense. Amber was in danger every day beside him.
Although he had gotten rid of a formidable enemy, Rodney’s relaxed mood was only maintained for a while. Wasn’t Elliot determined to get Amber? Why did he suddenly get engaged to Breanna? Was it because he had asked Amber to be his lover?
No man could accept a woman he liked sleeping with another man. Naturally, Elliot would not be spared either. Rodney felt a little guilty. On the one hand, Amber hated him because he had separated her from Elliot.
He picked up the phone and called Amber. He wanted to ask her out, but the phone kept ringing, but no one answered. Rodney couldn’t sit still, so he had to go to see Amber.
After waiting near the Black family for more than an hour, Rodney finally saw Amber. She put her hands in her pockets and looked lonely. Rodney went up to her and said, “Amber!”
Amber looked indifferently at Rodney. “What can I do for you, Mr. Barron?”
Rodney reached out to grab Amber’s hand. “I have a few words to say to you.”
“Go ahead!”
“Amber, I don’t know the news of Mel’s illness until now. I’m sorry.” Rodney’s face was full of regret, and his voice was very sincere. However, Amber only felt that it was extremely ironic. She would never forget Rodney’s refusal to her that night, and she would never forget it for the rest of her life.
“Mr. Barron, you’re too kind. You don’t belong to Amber. You don’t deserve anything.”
Looking at her indifferent expression and listening to her cold words, Rodney’s heart ached. “Amber, I… I just want to ask you, is what you said on the phone that night true?”
“What do you mean by telling the truth?”
“If it’s done together.”
A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Amber’s mouth. “Mr. Barron, I’ve already answered this question before. Now I’ll answer it again. Please listen carefully. I was out of my mind at that time, so I made the wrong call.”
“Amber, I’m sorry!” After all, they had been husband and wife for three years. At this time, Rodney finally understood what he had missed. “I didn’t mean to say that. I was just afraid that you would fool me, so I…”
“I really wanted to fool you at that time, so I called you. Fortunately, you were smart and didn’t fall for it.” Amber interrupted him.
“Amber, you don’t have to worry too much about the child’s illness. I will help you.”
“How can I help you? Give me money? Rodney, I tell you that I don’t care about your stinky money, and I don’t care about your hypocritical concern. You’d better stay aside and go!”
“Amber, it’s not just money. I can take care of you and your child.”
“Take care of us? Do you deserve it?” Amber sneered. What right did a man who was engaged to another woman have to mention taking care of her and her child?
“Mr. Barron, I’m very tired now. Could you let me go back and rest for a while if you don’t have any other questions?” Amber asked.
“Amber!” Rodney wanted to say more, but a gentle voice suddenly sounded. “Rodney, sister?”
Celia’s car had stopped beside them at some point in time. At this moment, she was rolling down the window and looking at Rodney and Amber in surprise.
A cold smile appeared on Amber’s face when she saw Celia. She raised her hand, which was held by Rodney, and looked at Celia with a smile.
“Ms. Black, you came at the right time. I don’t know what’s wrong with your fiance. He stopped me here and said that he would take care of my child and me. Please take him to the hospital. I suspect that he has lost his mind.”
Celia’s expression was very interesting. Amber knew that she must have had a mixed feeling in her heart at this moment. Finally, she let out a breath of anger and shook off Rodney’s hand and strode away.
Her departure left all the doubts to the couple. It didn’t matter whether they were arguing or trying to make peace. It had nothing to do with her.
Celia opened the door, got out of the car, and walked to Rodney. “Rodney!”
Rodney didn’t explain, which meant that he acquiesced to what Amber had just said. Celia hated him so much in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face. “Rodney, I know you can’t forget your sister. I don’t blame you.”
“I’m sorry!” Rodney spat out three words and strode away.
Watching Rodney go far away, Celia turned around and got in the car. Her almond-shaped eyes showed cruelty. “Amber, just you wait. I won’t let you off!”
Amber walked to the door and heard the sound of a car coming from behind. “Celia actually came back.” She felt a little strange. According to common sense, “Isn’t Mr. Barron supposed to explain it to Celia?”
What made Amber feel strange was still there. Celia stopped the car and followed her quickly. She thought that she would be furious, but she didn’t expect that Celia didn’t seem to be unhappy at all. She even smiled at her.
Amber got goosebumps. She really looked down on Celia. How could she still laugh at this time?
After dinner, Celia took Shannon’s hand and went out for a walk. She told her about Rodney holding Amber’s hand. “Mom, Rodney didn’t even explain to me. I’m so angry.”
“Rodney is too much! He’s already engaged to you, but he still thinks about that little b*tch!” Shannon frowned. “I have to find a way to make them have nothing to do with each other. The best way is to let you and Rodney get married as soon as possible.”
“How could it be so easy?” Celia felt that it was unrealistic to get married to Rodney immediately.
“It’s not easy. I have to find a way.” Shannon sneered. “I have to discuss it with Itzel and ask her for help. I can’t let the little bitch get away with it.”
“Will Itzel help us?”
“Yes, I will. My request is for her to fulfill all her requests.”
“Mom, I’ve always been wondering why Itzel helped us?” Itzel had been involved in the matter of designing Amber from the very beginning. Celia felt very strange. Why was she so persistent in coming to help them?
“There’s a grudge between her and Amber’s mother,” Shannon replied.
“So it’s because of this?” Celia couldn’t believe it. “Mom, you have to be careful. I don’t think this Itzel is worth our friendship. I’m afraid she’ll bite us when the time comes.”
“Don’t worry. She won’t do anything to us.”
“Why?” Celia was curious.
“Secret!” Shannon gave a strange smile, but no matter how hard her daughter tried, she wouldn’t say anything.
The next day, Shannon went to the hospital and was surprised to see Itzel. She closed the door and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“It’s about Celia.” Shannon sat down and told him about Amber’s return to the Black family. “Rodney still hasn’t given up on that little b*tch. I’ve thought about it all night. There’s only one way. Ask them to get married as soon as possible. Go and find Rachel to see what she means.”
“Okay.” Itzel agreed.
