Chasing My Rejected Wife
Chapter 114

Amber’s love life soon came to an end. She had never expected such a call from Rodney, but things went contrary to her wishes. It seemed that the man Rodney had disappeared all of a sudden and never called her again.

She didn’t wait for Rodney’s good fortune. Instead, she received a strange phone call. It turned out that her resume was chosen by a company and she was asked to go for an interview.

Amber’s resume company was called YZ Co., and it was quite famous in South City. Amber didn’t have much hope when he played the resume, but he was accepted.

The unexpected result of this job made Amber very happy. He called Noemi and told her about it. Hearing this, Noemi was also happy for her and said that she wanted to invite her to dinner to celebrate. Amber refused Noemi’s kindness. This was her good thing. If she wanted to treat her, she should invite her. In the evening, when Noemi got off work, she went to the restaurant with Noemi.

During the meal, Noemi kept reminding Amber of what he needed to pay attention to in the new company as an experienced person.

Big companies like YZ Co. usually bullied newcomers. If she wanted to gain a firm foothold, she had to endure the humiliation. She smiled at everyone and said that big companies were all places where people fought with each other. She told her to be careful of other people’s plots and could not trust people easily. After the meal, Amber was taught a lot.

Amber went to the new company to report. She studied marketing management and was assigned to the marketing department. She had just joined the company and didn’t know a lot of things. She couldn’t help but be afraid of making mistakes.

Fortunately, the manager of the marketing department was nice to her and even personally taught her how to get familiar with the company. The other colleagues in the office were also very friendly to her, and there was no such thing as what Noemi had said. The good working atmosphere surprised Amber, and she gradually began to get used to it.

This day, the manager asked Amber to go with him to see a client. He said that he wanted Amber to get familiar with his business because he had contacted him in advance. The meeting this time was very smooth and it was easy for him to sign the list.

After signing the order, the manager asked Amber to go back first. Amber took the elevator downstairs, but he received a call from him saying that he would like to have dinner with the company and let her go with him.

Amber had no choice but to return to the hall. Sitting on the sofa, she watched TV and waited for the manager. “Miss. Stone?” A voice sounded. She looked over and saw that Deon was standing beside her.

“Why are you here?” Deon asked.

“Wait for someone!” Amber answered briefly. The place where Deon was should not be far away from Rodney. She looked around subconsciously, but she did not see Rodney’s figure.

Deon was one of Rodney’s trusted subordinates. Deon was one of the people who schemed against her last time. Although Amber knew that this was his responsibility, he couldn’t have a good impression of a person who had set him up. She continued to watch TV with a cold face. She didn’t take Deon seriously at all.

Deon saw her cold expression and didn’t care. “Mr. Barron is also here today.” Amber didn’t say anything. It had nothing to do with her whether Rodney was here or not.

While he was thinking about this, the elevator door opened. The manager and several other men came out together. When they saw Mr. Mason and Amber, they were obviously surprised. “Mr. Beard!” One of them walked over quickly and greeted Rodney very modestly.

The man was a manager of the client company whom they met today. The rest of the staff, including the manager of Amber’s company, had also come.

Everyone greeted Deon as they were familiar with each other. As the most popular person around Rodney, Deon had a lot of face. Amber sneered in his heart.

After greeting Deon, the manager quietly asked Amber, “Do you know Mr. Beard?”

“I just know him,” Amber replied. The manager’s face showed a look of surprise. It was a good thing to know the people around Rodney. In the future, he would have a lot of contact with his company. It was easy to deal with acquaintances. When he was about to speak, the elevator door opened again. A tall and straight figure walked out of the elevator. “Mr. Barron!”

Someone spoke. Amber looked over and saw Rodney standing at the door of the elevator. When she saw Rodney and Amber subconsciously wanting to run away, she suddenly saw a yellow figure from the corner of her eyes. Kelsey turned out from behind Rodney.

Hearing the greeting, Rodney raised his head and looked over. With so many people around him, Amber had a feeling that Rodney’s gaze seemed to pause on her. Then, he strode towards them. The few people surrounding Deon immediately changed their direction and moved closer to Rodney.

To be able to stand in front of someone with such a prominent status like Rodney and say a few more words, not everyone would have the honor of being able to do so.

Mr. Barron’s intimate greeting continued incessantly. Rodney shook hands with the people around him indifferently, but his eyes were as faint as Amber’s. When he met Amber’s eyes, Amber looked away indifferently. This man was so disgusting. She wondered why he didn’t call her during this period of time. It turned out that he couldn’t finish his work!

Kelsey, who was beside Rodney, also noticed Amber. She walked over quickly with a smile on her face. “Miss. Stone!” She greeted Amber warmly.

“Ms. Farrell.” Amber smiled faintly as he stretched out his hand to stop the smiling man.

“I’m working in the Barron Enterprises now,” Kelsey said. She was trying to explain to Amber why she and Rodney had appeared together.

Amber sneered in his heart. Rodney was really good at enjoying himself. In order to be able to be with his lover every day, he actually found such a good excuse to deceive others. Amber hated him a little more in his heart.

He looked at those people coldly. All of them were extremely respectful towards Rodney. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised as he revealed a mocking smile.

The manager of YZ Co. was secretly looking at Amber. “Miss. Stone must have a powerful background. Otherwise, how could the headquarters call me on the first day of work and ask me to take care of her deliberately?”

However, she was modest and didn’t have a temper. She didn’t look like a backer at all. He always felt that he had guessed wrong. But now, seeing that she and the people around Rodney seemed to know each other, the manager was sure that her identity was not ordinary. It seemed that he had to treat her better in the future…

“Since we’ve bumped into each other, I’ll treat everyone to a meal today!” After exchanging polite greetings, Rodney spoke in an indifferent tone. Everyone except for Amber revealed a look of pleasant surprise on their faces. Not everyone had the luck to eat Rodney’s meal.

After Rodney finished speaking, he looked indifferently at Amber. With a glance, he took the lead and walked to the door. The people behind him followed him immediately. Amber really didn’t want to go, so he pulled the hem of the manager’s clothes. “I have something to do tonight, so I won’t go.”

“How can I do that?” The manager shook his head and lowered his voice. “It’s a great thing to have dinner with Rodney. No one can beg for it.”

Amber found it funny. “Since when did this Mr. Barron become so awesome?” The manager added, “Didn’t Mr. Barron bring a female companion? We have so many men. Don’t you know her female companion? It’s a good opportunity to build a relationship with her.”

This did not allow her to oppose. Amber felt uncomfortable in her heart. The manager did not know about it. If he knew that both Kelsey and he were in love with Rodney, he would not have arranged it like this. However, this kind of thing could not be spread everywhere. She was unhappy, so she followed him to the hotel.

Rodney’s treat was at the South City Hotel. As soon as they arrived, they were welcomed into the best private room of the South City Hotel.

The group of people in front of him undoubtedly had the highest status of Rodney. He sat in the main seat, sitting on the left side of Kelsey, and on the right side of him was the manager of the customer company. Amber was pushed to Kelsey’s side by the manager, and the manager sat next to her.

Since it was Rodney’s treat, delicious food was naturally not a problem. Amber suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and tried to convince himself that he would not eat for nothing!

Rodney was the king of South City’s shopping mall. To be favored by him would definitely be beneficial to the company’s future development. Other than Amber and Kelsey, the rest of the people present were all flattering him.

Rodney, on the other hand, looked calm and composed. In the face of all kinds of compliments, he always had a faint smile on his face. Amber looked at him with extreme disapproval in his heart. A man with loose morals was destined to be a loser no matter how successful his career was.

The dishes were served one by one, and there were all kinds of chatters in the dining room. Amber just buried his head in eating, pretending that he didn’t hear the compliments from those people.

There was no lack of toasts at times like this. Rodney usually didn’t drink much, but today, he was a little strange. He actually didn’t reject toasts. Everyone knew that he had a bad stomach, so they treated him as they pleased. Rodney only raised his cup gently and licked his lips. The others, in order to show their respect, filled their cups.

Everyone at the table had toasted Rodney. Only Amber had been eating with his head buried. He did not pay attention to Kelsey beside him, nor did he care about other people’s topics. The manager next to him secretly complained. Amber usually looked like an elf, but why was he so dull at this time?

It turned out that she thought that she would take the initiative to chat with Rodney’s female companion, but she didn’t expect that she only knew how to eat and completely ignored that the woman around her was the person she wanted to accompany.

The manager shook his head when he saw Amber. It was as if he had never eaten anything delicious in his entire life. It seemed like it was impossible for him to count on her to take the initiative. He reached out and poked Amber, signaling for her to propose a toast to Rodney.

Since the manager had done this, Amber could not pretend to be confused. Although he had just been immersed in eating, he had heard a lot of compliments from others. The man Rodney was really disgusting. In the face of such disgusting compliments, he could still remain calm and at ease. From this, it could be seen that he was a hypocrite.

She didn’t know why she was so angry. “Don’t you like to listen to compliments? Aren’t you calm? I’ll make you lose face.”

What can you do if I don’t respect your wine?

However, she couldn’t ignore the manager’s actions, so she put down her chopsticks and stood up. She poured herself a glass of wine, not for Rodney, but for the president next to her. “Mr. James, I toast you!”

Amber was beautiful with red lips and white teeth. Beside him, Mr. James smiled and said, “Good! Good!”

The manager was a little anxious when he saw how disobedient Amber was. He secretly complained about how disobedient Amber was.

The people at the table were all trying to curry favor with Rodney. Why are you going to give a toast to an irrelevant person?

However, Amber didn’t care what the manager was thinking. He began to toast one by one, and all of them were filled with wine. When he reached Rodney’s side, she had already drunk seven or eight glasses.

She rarely drank, and after drinking seven or eight glasses of wine, she was already dizzy. She held the wine glass and staggered to the side of Rodney. “Mr… Mr. Barron, right? Why do I feel that Mr. Barron is so familiar? Have I seen him before?”

Rodney looked at her coldly. “Is that so? Where have we met before?”

Amber’s manager was extremely anxious when he saw the smell of alcohol coming out of her mouth. He immediately said, “It’s normal for you to see Mr. Barron on TV every day.”

“I didn’t see it on TV… It was…” Amber frowned. “Where is it?”

She looked as if she couldn’t remember anything. Of course, Rodney knew that she was pretending, so he didn’t expose her and just looked at her with a smile.

Amber reached out to rub his forehead. After a while, he suddenly seemed to remember something. “I remember!”

“What did you think of?” Rodney asked, following her words.

“Last time when I went to a bar with my friends to drink, I saw a photo of Mr. Barron on the phone of a young lady in a nightclub.”

“Amber!” The manager was so anxious that his voice changed.

“It’s true. I’m not lying. Mr. Barron doesn’t have a photo of him wearing clothes. The young lady showed off to the people around her, saying that she had caught a golden turtle, said that she was good-looking and rich, but she just couldn’t live. She finished in two minutes!”

Rodney didn’t expect her to say such a thing. He was so angry that his face changed. “This damned woman!”
