Chapter 156
Amber’s words left Rodney speechless. His mother was indeed such a person. At this moment, he couldn’t find any words to refute her at all.
“Rodney, we’re done for. If you’re really loyal to me, I’ll ask you to let me go. Pierce and I will get married soon. I beg you not to disturb us! I beg you!” Hearing this, Rodney’s eyes suddenly dimmed. Amber, you can’t wait to marry Pierce? Don’t you think about me at all?
Seeing that he was silent, Amber didn’t want to stay any longer. She went straight through him and walked to the other side.
“You really won’t give me a single chance?” The moment they brushed past each other, Rodney’s pleading voice rang out.
Tears rolled down Amber’s face. He turned his head away so that Rodney wouldn’t see her tears. “So what if I give you a chance? You have a mother like that and you have a prejudice against me. We’re destined not to be happy. Rodney, love is not omnipotent. I can’t take it anymore. I’m already devastated in three years. How many more years do you want me to live like that?”
Her voice carried unspeakable sadness and desolation. Rodney’s heart suddenly fell to the abyss. He stood there like a statue. Until Amber’s figure disappeared, he stood still.
It was still Club Cobalt at the Southern City Hospital. Itzel and Celia came to the hospital again and carried out the first-hand operation. Itzel was an expert in the field of technology, so she was naturally familiar with this kind of operation. Soon, the fetus was put into Celia’s womb. The operation was over smoothly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Itzel told Celia to lie in the hospital for a few hours and also told her to remember that she must not do strenuous exercise so as not to slow down and lead to failure of the operation.
After giving the order, Itzel left the hospital in advance, while Celia and Shannon stayed in the hospital until dawn.
Not long after Itzel left the hospital, a man in a military coat entered the hospital. After entering the hospital, the man in a military coat walked a few laps around the hospital and entered the parking lot. He patrolled the parking lot of the hospital. At this point, the security guards of the hospital were restrained. The man in a military coat looked around the parking lot for a while and found that one or two Audis were parked in the parking lot. He walked to the Audi gently and looked inside.
As soon as he saw it, he was overjoyed. There was a woman’s bag in the back seat of the Audi car. The man in a military coat took out a glass knife and cut it out of the window. Soon, he took out the woman’s bag from the car. He opened the bag, robbed all the financial supplies inside, and disappeared into the night.
In the US, Rachel saw that everyone was holding Mel in their arms and rushing straight to the hospital. She faintly felt that things were not good. Madam Hammond had always been polite to him. When she saw Mel being sent to the hospital, her face changed. She ordered the servants to send the guests off, and then she entered the study with a gloomy face.
Rachel boasted that she was a respectable person. It was a great shame to be sent by servants, but she couldn’t stay here. After leaving the Hammond family, she went back to the hotel angrily. Along the way, she called her son countless times, but was rejected.
Rachel was extremely angry. At this time, she needed someone to vent her anger. In South City, the first person she wanted to vent was the nanny, Riya. But now she was in the U.S., and she couldn’t do it.
Unable to vent her anger, Rachel thought of Itzel. She did not care about the time and immediately called Itzel. Itzel had just returned home after the operation. When she saw Rachel calling at this time,
she guessed that something must have happened, so she answered the call immediately. Rachel quickly told her what had happened today. She heard that Mel was Mr. Barron’s child. Itzel was shocked. “Is there a mistake?”
“That’s right. I thought the same as you did before. I didn’t believe that the child was Rodney’s. But when I saw her carefully, I found that the child was the same as Rodney when he was a child. It must be Rodney’s child!” Rachel didn’t doubt the child’s identity, but she was angry with Amber’s attitude. “This vicious woman secretly gave birth to the child and stopped the child from recognizing us. What does she want?”
“She definitely didn’t have any good intentions.” Itzel naturally wanted to stir up trouble. “She wants a mother to be worthy of a son.”
“You said that since she was pregnant when she was divorced, why didn’t you tell us? If she had told us that she was pregnant, I wouldn’t have forced her to divorce Rodney.” Rachel had always been a person who pushed the blame to others. It was obvious that she wanted to force Amber, but it was Amber’s fault in her mouth.
“Who knows what she’s up to?” Itzel naturally knew why Amber didn’t tell her. She and Ashley were like Ashley, who cared about their dignity and suffered a lot. She thought that Rodney had betrayed her, so she wouldn’t tell anyone about her child even if she was beaten to death. At this time, she had to poison Rachel and make her hate Amber to death. Only in this way could it be convenient for her to act.
“I think she’s deliberately torturing Rodney, torturing you. She knows that you like grandchildren, and she knows that Rodney feels guilty for her. She wants to stir up trouble for your family!”
Rachel also thought that Amber had such an idea. She deliberately wanted to take revenge on her and her son. Itzel’s words hit the nail in her heart. “Yes! It must be like this. She must hate us very much, so
she came up with this idea to take revenge. This woman is too vicious. I must find a way to defeat her conspiracy!”
“What are you going to do?” Itzel asked tentatively.
“My grandson is part of the Barron family, so of course I have to snatch him back. As for Amber, if she wants to marry into the Barron family, just dream about it. As long as I’m here, she can forget about it for the rest of her life.” This was what Rachel really wanted. She had to have a child. As for Amber, she had long been on bad terms with her. No matter what, she was not suitable to be with Rodney. She would not allow Amber to marry into the family.
“She definitely won’t agree to give the child to you.”
“Even if she doesn’t give it to us, can she beat us?” Rachel became domineering again at this time. “When the time comes, throw a few pieces of money to her. If she does, I will sue her and see who is better!”
They were going to fall out with each other. Rachel had no brains. Amber was the daughter of Channing, not an ordinary person. She thought that she would win the lawsuit with the protection of the officials. However, Itzel knew better than her that if the lawsuit was really fought, Channing would not sit idly by. But it was also good. It was good for everyone to fall out with each other.
She continued to cheer on. “Yes, if she doesn’t agree, we can go to court with her. With the financial resources of the Barron Enterprises, the child will definitely not contact her!”
Rachel was in a better mood after being coaxed by her, but Itzel was still worried. She had to put in a good word for Celia so that Rachel would firmly stand behind them to support them. “Rachel, let me tell you, you must not compromise with Amber’s character. The child belongs to the Barron family. You can just snatch him back. The child’s mother’s character is too bad, so you have to lock her up. No matter what, Celia is much better than her. Amber is here to mess up with Rodney and you can’t have peace.
During this period of time, Celia has been running around for the sports meeting. I heard that Shannon said that the sports meeting will most likely fall into the hands of the Barron family.”
“Really?” Rachel was overjoyed.
“It’s true. With such a daughter-in-law who is devoted to the development of the Barron family, the company will definitely be very big. You must make a firm decision and can’t let Rodney do whatever he wants.”
“I see. By the way, is there any news from Celia yet?”
“I didn’t ask. I’ll ask her tomorrow,” Itzel replied. Although she was very confident in her operation, she still didn’t dare to guarantee it. She had to wait until there was nothing wrong with it.
Rachel liked children, didn’t she? She had done a double organ transplant. If she succeeded, Celia would be pregnant with two children. The chances of twins were very small. Rachel heard that Celia would be happy if she was pregnant with twins!
They talked for a while before hanging up.
After hanging up the phone, Itzel couldn’t feel at ease. She wanted to call Shannon and ask her to make a decision, but thinking that Celia had just had an operation and couldn’t give her any burden, she decided to wait until tomorrow.
After complaining, the anger in Rachel’s heart calmed down. Thinking about the scene just now, she found that she seemed to have gone too far. Her grandson was so young, and she didn’t know if he had fallen to the ground. She began to worry, so she called her son again, but there was still no way to get through.
Rachel was in a state of panic. Could it be that the child had fallen ill? If that was the case, her sins would be severe. Although she was snobbish, she was not the kind of person who did evil things. She was just a little vicious. If she really hurt people, she would not have done any harm to them.
In the evening, her son finally appeared with a sad face. Although Rachel was anxious about happy things in her heart, she was used to showing off, but her words were not pleasant. “Amber’s child is too expensive. It’s just a fall. Why do you have to do this?”
Hearing this, Rodney looked at Rachel with a strange look in his eyes that Rachel had never seen before. He was so cold that Rachel shivered unnaturally. “Mom, are you really my mom?”
“What are you talking about?” Rachel felt very guilty under her son’s gaze.
“How can you say that? Even a good child can’t stand your torture, let alone a sick child? He is your grandson! How can you be so indifferent and cold-blooded?” Rodney suddenly became furious. Amber was going to marry Pierce, and his son was sick. He was not a human being now.
“Wait! Is the child sick? What’s wrong with the child?” Rachel’s heart was in her throat.
“It’s leukemia!” Rodney sat down with his head in his arms, his tone full of helplessness and sadness. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“What’s wrong? How could my grandson get such a disease? It’s all that woman’s fault. If it weren’t for her sneaky child, would she get such a disease?” Rachel was both angry and distressed. She had always been used to finding excuses, so she immediately blamed Amber.
“So far, you still have the nerve to find an excuse? Do you think your conscience will be better if you blame everything on Amber? If others don’t know, I know very well that you are the one who found a scapegoat. It is you who forced me to divorce Amber. It is you who drove the mother and son out of the house and wandered around. You are the culprit of all this!” Rodney raised his voice.
“Son, lower your voice. This is a hotel. Isn’t it shameful to be heard by others?” Rachel blushed.
“Shame? Do you still know what shame is? If you knew what shame was, you wouldn’t have gone to the Hammond family to make a scene regardless of your reputation. Look at what you’ve done today.”
“Am I in a hurry? I’m not happy that Amber doesn’t allow me to recognize my grandson. If she asked me to hug my grandson, would I make a fuss?” Rachel explained in a low voice.
“Why are you so unhappy? Is it natural for others to work so hard to give birth to your grandson? You are also a mother. If someone wants to steal your son from you, won’t you just sit back and do nothing?” Rodney questioned.
“Of course I won’t sit idly by, but I’m not someone else. I’m the child’s grandmother. I just want to see the child. I mean no harm…”
“Since you want to see the child, you should think of ways to make up for it and beg for the forgiveness of the child’s mother. But look at what you have done. You are unreasonable and only know how to add to the conflict. You only know to stir up trouble. Will everything change if you mess it up?”
“I don’t want to mess with you. I just like my grandson too much. Son, I am your mother. Can I treat my grandson badly?” Rachel felt that she was wronged.
“But you’re not good to your grandson’s mother! Mom, as long as you don’t treat Amber well, you can’t solve the problem between us!”
“Wasn’t she nice to me? Why did you push the blame to me?” Rachel was unhappy.
“Wasn’t she forced by you? Think about it yourself. How filial Amber was to you when he married me? Think about it yourself!”
“At that time, I treated her well, didn’t I?” Rachel retorted.
He couldn’t communicate with her at all, so he could only vent his anger on the table next to him and punch it hard on the table.
