Chasing My Rejected Wife

Chapter 85

Rachel was shocked when she heard that her son had ignored the threat of being hit by a car to save Amber’s son. Last time, her son was scalded for Amber, and now he was saving his son’s life. Rachel felt more and more that Amber was a disaster. If things went on like this, she would kill her son.

She had to get her out of South City as soon as possible! Itzel said that Amber’s house had been burned and had no place to live, and he had lost his job. It was the time to make things worse. She wanted to take this opportunity to negotiate conditions with Amber and let her leave South City immediately and get far away from him.

Rachel also felt that this was an opportunity, so she called Amber.

“Mrs. Barron? What’s the matter?” Amber felt uncomfortable when he heard Rachel’s voice, and his tone was very cold.

“Well, I just read the news and found out that something happened in your family. I’m very sympathetic.”

To think that Rachel would actually call the police. It was true that the sun had risen from the west. Now, the person who was most gloating should be her. Amber did not speak. He wanted to hear what she would say next.

“Amber, I know that you’re in a difficult position right now. You don’t have a house to live in, and you don’t have a job. It must be very hard for you to raise your son and uncle. I’ve thought about it and decided to help you.”

“How can you be so kind?”

“Amber, after all, we’re just mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I don’t feel good to see you like this. I’m not born with a cruel heart. It’s just that my position is different. Please agree to my request for our

mother’s sake. If you’re willing to leave South City, I’ll give you a sum of money. You won’t be able to spend your whole life. You don’t have to work so hard. Your son can get the best education. Think about it.”

“Rachel, South City is my home, the place where I grew up! Why should I leave? Haven’t you heard that it’s hard to leave your homeland and return to your roots? Why did you and your son come to my hometown in City A? Since you’re so worried about your son, why did you take him away? Why did you force me to leave?” Amber roared at the phone. “Let me tell you, even if I want to eat, I have to stay in South City and never leave!”

After shouting, she hung up the phone. Her heart was blocked. “Who are these people?”

In the evening, when Noemi came over, Amber told her what Rachel had said. Noemi was also very angry. Why did the old witch not give up?

“Amber, as I said, you should agree to her condition and ask her to give you money. Anyway, you didn’t pester his son. His family owes you money. Don’t refuse it for nothing.”

“I know, but I don’t want to have anything to do with them. I don’t want to at all.”

“You are too strong!” Noemi sighed.

After staying in the hospital for another week, Amber felt that there was nothing wrong with her body and she was ready to be discharged from the hospital, but the doctor did not let her go. He said that the city leader had told her to take good care of her body before she was discharged. Her wound was not fully recovered, so she could not be discharged from the hospital.

Amber knew that it must have been Channing’s idea, so she had to go back to the ward. Not long after she returned to the ward, the door of the ward was pushed open. Rodney came in with a thermos bottle. “Do you feel better today?”

Amber didn’t say anything and just looked at him coldly. Rodney didn’t mind opening the thermos and pouring out the soup inside. He brought it to Amber and said, “Have a drink!”

“Can you stop appearing in front of me?” Amber didn’t take the soup.

“Yes, I can. I’ll leave after you drink this bowl of soup.” Rodney stubbornly handed the soup to Amber. Amber took it and drank it up. “Well, you can go now.”

Rodney did not leave. Instead, he slowly tidied up and said, “There’s no need to worry about the house. I’ve already gotten someone to clean up a house. You can move in after you leave the hospital. As for work…”

“Rodney, I don’t need your charity!” Amber interrupted him. That day, she received a call from Rachel, which made her so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger.

“Rodney, why did you come to South City? The world is so big, why did you come to South City to force me? Do you want to see me die?”

“Amber, I don’t want to force you. I just want to help you!” Rodney looked at her with a pained heart.

“Get out!” Amber pointed at the door. Her life had changed since she met this man.

If she hadn’t met him, she would have found a stable job and lived an ordinary and fulfilling life after graduating from college.

She would not experience such pain and suffering, nor would she suffer these humiliations. “Rodney, get out of here. I will never see you again!”

Rodney frowned slightly, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions. Finally, he sighed in a low voice. “Okay, I’ll go out.”

She was injured. At this moment, she was at her weakest. No matter how vicious he was, he would not want to provoke her. Standing at the corner of the corridor, he lit a cigarette.

He had tried his best to move the company’s management from City A to South City. Why? South City was her hometown. It was said that the dead would return to their home. He believed that she would come back one day.

Now she was back, but everything was not under his control. They were like passers-by. She hated him so much that she gnashed her teeth. How could she change all this? Rodney threw away the cigarette butt and turned around irritably. However, he saw the man striding over from the corridor at a glance.

Channing?

Seeing Channing come in, Amber looked alert. “What are you doing here?”

“Amber, my child, you have suffered!” Channing had just reached out to hold Amber’s hand, but Amber avoided it. Channing had just retracted his hand in disappointment. “Amber, I’m sorry!”

“Mr. Black, what can I change if I’m sorry?” Amber stared at him. The two people she hated the most in the world were Rodney and Channing.

“Mr. Black, you’d better stay away from me. You are now a successful official. If others know that you cheated on your mistress, you will not be an official anymore.”

“Amber, I was wrong about what happened that year. I didn’t cheat. I never thought about betraying your mother. Shannon is your mother’s friend. When I met her on a business trip, I was drunk…” Channing pulled his hair painfully.

“Because I have always been very guilty to your mother. I didn’t expect that she would be pregnant and give birth to a child. Later, your mother passed away, and she came to me with the child. At that time,

someone reported that I had a bad habit. I think she has been very pitiful with the child these years. In order to compensate her, so…” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Channing did not dare to look at his daughter. He told Amber what had happened in the past intermittently. Amber looked at him with disdain. “Do you mean that you and Shannon have no feelings for each other? The reason why you married her is that you are afraid of losing your black silk hat?”

Channing’s face turned red. His daughter’s words were really vicious.

Amber sneered. “You keep saying that you love your wife, but I can’t see that you love her at all. Since what happened that year was out of your control, why didn’t you explain it to her? Why did you choose to hide it?

If you told her everything, there wouldn’t be a car accident when she ran away from home in grief. If you really loved your wife so much, you wouldn’t marry a third person because of power!

Mr. Black, power is always greater than anything in your heart. Love your wife and love your daughter. These are all nonsense. When your power is in conflict with yours, you will always choose power.”

“Amber, forgive me. I’m a coward. I know I’m in the wrong. I won’t leave you alone anymore. I’ve asked Shannon to clean up the room. You move back immediately and let me take care of you. I won’t let you get hurt again!”

“Mr. Black, you have to think about it carefully. If someone comes up with those old accounts, can you go now?”

“I’ve made up my mind. Amber, you don’t have to worry about me. I won’t be affected.”

“So you’ve already found a reason.” Amber sneered. She just wondered why Channing had come to her and asked her to move back.

It seemed that he had dealt with all the aftermath. There was no need to be afraid of being exposed. He felt very sad. This was her father, the man her mother loved deeply. In his heart, there was no family affection and power.

“Mr. Black, I won’t move back. It’s okay if you want me to move back. You can let the b*tch mother and daughter move out!”

“Amber!”

“There’s no need to say anything. I won’t move back. You can go!”

Channing sighed heavily and got up to leave the ward.

Channing’s figure disappeared, and Rodney entered Amber’s ward. He didn’t expect that Rodney didn’t leave. Amber was shocked. “Why are you here again?”

“Amber, what’s the relationship between you and Channing?” Rodney stared at Amber.

“What’s the relationship?” Amber sneered. Since Rodney didn’t leave, he must have heard something. She didn’t want to hide it anymore. “The relationship between father and daughter. Is Mr. Barron satisfied with this answer?”

“You and he are actually father and daughter?” Rodney’s guess was finally confirmed. He should have thought of it earlier. The photo in Channing’s study was not Amber, but Amber’s mother. “How could this be?”

“Are you surprised?” Amber sneered. “Channing just cheated and raised his mistress and illegitimate daughter. My mother was irritated and had a car accident. He took his mistress and illegitimate daughter into his house. It’s so simple.”

“Why didn’t you tell me the truth?”

“Tell you? Why should I tell you?” Amber stared at Rodney, his face full of sarcasm. “Do you want to say that if I told you that I had such a powerful father and mother who could treat me differently? If your career could be helped, wouldn’t you cheat on Celia?”

“Amber, have you ever loved me in the slightest?” If she had revealed her identity, her mother would not have treated her like that. Her love for him would not have been hindered. They would have lived happily together.

But she had always been hiding her identity from him. They were the closest couple to each other, but his wife had secrets from him. Rodney felt very sad.

“Now he has the nerve to ask me if I love him or not? Will he marry me if I don’t love him? If I don’t love him, I will endure his mother’s vicious humiliation for three years. Amber really wants to laugh. Love? Does he have the nerve to say love?”

Ever since he cheated on Celia and made the woman he hated the most get pregnant, she had been desperate for him. This man was not worthy of her saying love! Not worthy!

“Rodney! I’ve never loved you in the least! I’ve never loved you!”

Hearing her cold and heartless words, Rodney was almost driven mad. He raised his fist to Amber. Seeing his blood-red eyes and ferocious face, Amber sneered and said, “Mu, are you angry and want to hit me?”

Looking at her fearless eyes, Rodney punched the head of the bed, turned around, and strode out of the ward like an arrow.

Amber turned out to be Channing’s daughter. Amber, Shannon’s mistress, must hate her to the core. Even Celia would hate her to the core. Since that was the case, why did Celia choose to have a miscarriage? Didn’t she know how much harm it would do to Amber?

Rodney dialed Celia’s number while driving. “Come out. I have something to ask you.”
