Chasing My Rejected Wife
Chapter 128

Amber could imagine what Rachel looked like at this moment. She knew that whether the truth was true or not, she must be very angry. Her family must have been smashed into a mess by her.

Amber’s guess was very accurate. Rachel was so angry when she saw her son’s reaction that she smashed the things in the house. Then she called Rodney and asked him to come back as soon as possible to explain.

On the other side, Celia and her daughter were so angry when they saw the show. It was out of Celia and Shannon’s wildest dreams that Rodney would push her to such heights.

Shannon only thought of how Rodney and his son sympathized with Celia because of Celia’s ruined reputation. She thought of how Rodney and his son would be united because they were both attacked. She had never thought that Rodney would be so reckless as to deal with them like this.

When Celia got close to Rodney, it was a trick. But now, Rodney used her tricks to fight against her. It was ironic.

Looking at the host praising her for being kind-hearted, Celia was really upset. She didn’t do this for the sake of being a moral model.

Now, in front of the people of the South City, Rodney kept saying that she had nothing to do with him. He kept denying that she had tried her best to get engaged, which made Celia feel embarrassed.

She would rather be pointed at the nose and scolded by the world than have anything to do with Rodney, especially when she saw him thanking her for her efforts and her helping him and Amber. Celia was so angry that she almost went crazy. She jumped up and shouted at Shannon, “It’s all your fault. I said it was all right. What should we do now?”

“Calm down!” Shannon looked at her daughter’s crazy look and frowned. “Isn’t it the last moment?”

“How can I calm down? How can I calm down? Can calm down make Rodney take back what he said? Ah? It’s all your fault… If it weren’t for you, things wouldn’t have become like this.”

Shannon was also irritated by her daughter’s duty. “I didn’t do it for you. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even be able to touch Rodney. How dare you blame me? Well, I don’t care about your business from now on!”

“I don’t care. I’ll die. If I can’t get him, I’ll die!”

Shannon slammed the door and walked out. “Then go to hell. My daughter isn’t as bad as you think. Go ahead if you want to die. I won’t stop you!”

Seeing that her mother didn’t care about her, Celia fell to the ground, covered her face, and burst into tears. She didn’t want to die. She didn’t want to give up. She had been waiting for him for eight or nine years. It was clear that she was already a beauty, but she didn’t talk about anything in the blink of an eye. How could she understand?

Shannon stood in the corridor and heard her daughter’s wailing in the bedroom. She was really upset. This was her mistake. She thought that she would get the chips after she got killed, but she didn’t expect that Rodney would come up with such a bad idea.

She dared to be so unscrupulous because she was sure that Rodney would not let her mother be in the midst of the storm. But she did not expect that Rodney would be so out of character that he would talk about this matter on TV.

What should he do now? Since Rodney had personally gone to the TV station to talk about this matter, it meant that he did not want to have anything to do with Celia at all. Was he going to let it go? But how could he not be reconciled?

She had worked hard for seven or eight years, but her plan was ruined in only one day. Shannon was unwilling to give up. She had to win back one round. This matter couldn’t be settled like this!

After watching the show, Elliot turned off the TV with a sneer. “The man Rodney is really brilliant. He did a really good job in such a play, shooting three birds with one stone!”

After receiving his mother’s flustered and exasperated call, Rodney immediately returned to the house to chat. As soon as he opened the door, he was hit by a pillow. He reached out to catch it, but Rachel had already jumped from the sofa and rushed to him. She slapped him in the face.

Rodney didn’t dodge at all. Instead, he was slapped in the face. Seeing that his son didn’t dodge at all, Rachel’s heart ached as well. However, when she thought of how he had embarrassed himself like this because of a woman, she hardened her heart and said, “You unfilial son, you unfilial son. You slandered your mother for a woman. Are you still a human? Huh?”

Rodney frowned as he looked at Rachel. “Mom, take it easy. You’re already so old, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by others if word gets out?”

“Are you kidding me? Who dares to laugh at me?” Hearing this, Rachel suddenly remembered that there was an outsider at home. It was really too much for Rodney, the president of the company, to hit him when he was in trouble outside. So she glared at Riya. Riya immediately knew what was good for her and went out, but she did not go far. She continued to wait at the door.

“I’m telling you, if you don’t want Celia, I don’t mind. But if you want to start over with Amber, don’t dream about it. Even if I have to risk my life, I won’t let her enter the Barron family.” Rachel’s roar came from inside. Riya shook her head. It was difficult for her to have such a mother, Rodney.

In the face of Rachel’s roar, Rodney calmly helped her sit down, and then went to pour two glasses of water back. He put one of the glasses in front of Rachel and said, “Mom, you should drink a glass of water to cool down. Let me explain it to you slowly.”

Rachel was not drunk at all. “No matter what tricks you play, I won’t agree anyway.”

“Mom, I’ll tell you the truth today. Except for Amber, I’m not interested in anyone else. You can only choose Amber now. Otherwise, the Barron family will really have no descendants.”

“Don’t try to lie to me. Let me tell you, I will never be fooled!”

“I didn’t lie to you. Mom, you can think about it yourself. Have you ever seen me interacting with other women in the past three years?”

“Celia is not a woman?” Shannon asked, “Even if you don’t like Celia, don’t you have Kelsey?”

“I have never had a romantic relationship with Celia and Kelsey. In addition to the necessary etiquette to take them to attend official occasions, I don’t even bother to touch their hands in private.”

“You… what’s so good about that woman?” Rachel was so angry that she couldn’t speak clearly.

“All the carrots and vegetables love each other. I like Amber, so I have feelings for her.”

“No, I can’t accept it. You can abandon Celia. I also agree with you to break up with her. I will help you replace her again. There are so many rich young ladies. I don’t believe that they are not what you like. Take a step back. You don’t like rich young ladies. You can also replace those young ladies. Anyway, you can’t replace Amber.”

“Back then, you forced me to divorce because Amber couldn’t let the Barron family have descendants. Now that Amber can have children, why can’t I start with her?”

“Are all the women who can give birth dead?” Rachel asked.

“There are many women who know how to give birth to children, but the only woman your son is willing to give birth to is Amber.” After saying so much, he felt thirsty, so he picked up the cup and drank some water.

“Bah! What drug did that vixen feed you? A second married woman who has a child is worth your efforts?”

Rachel snatched the teacup from Rodney’s hand and smashed it on the ground. “I don’t agree. I’m telling you, don’t dream about it. I won’t agree even if you beat me to death.”

“Mom, everything is right. I’m not the seven fairies! You’re not the powerful Queen Mother either! Isn’t it the best thing for everyone to be safe and sound?”

“Anyway, I don’t agree. Anyone can’t be Amber!”

“Mom, I’m not here to discuss it with you. I’ve already made my decision!” Rodney’s patience was gone. “No one can stop me from being with Amber.”

“How dare you!”

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Rodney sneered. “I’m telling you that I just hope that my family and everything will be happy. But if you don’t want my family and everything to be happy, I won’t force you. If you don’t like Amber, we can come back. In short, I want to be with Amber. No one can stop me!”

Rodney frowned as he looked at Rachel. “Mom, take it easy. You’re already so old, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by others if word gets out?”

Rachel was so angry that she rolled her eyes. “Wait, wait! I won’t let it go like this.”

Rodney slammed the door and left, while Rachel leaned back on the sofa and got angry. In the past, Rodney welcomed her from both sides, but now it was completely different. If she really married Amber, wouldn’t she live a long life? She wouldn’t agree to this matter even if she was beaten to death! She wouldn’t agree!

Before going to bed, Amber used the test method to test her affair. As a result, two red lines appeared in front of her, which meant that she had been in love for two days. Amber was nervous and excited.

It seemed that she had to replace an opportunity to meet Rodney tomorrow. In any case, she had to seize the opportunity and it would be best if she could succeed in one fell swoop. Amber turned on his phone and found that there were many missed calls in it, including Noemi’s, Elliot’s, Channing’s, and Rodney’s.

She thought about it for a moment and called Rodney. He didn’t expect that she would call him at this time. His tone was full of pleasant surprise. “Amber, I’m downstairs. I’m going to come up to you.”

“I’ll be right down.” Amber hung up the phone.

There was a clear palm print on Rodney’s face. It seemed to be Rachel’s masterpiece. Sure enough, the female tiger showed its power tonight. Amber pretended not to see it and just asked faintly, “Do you have anything to do with me?”

“Amber, let’s talk, okay?”

“Okay!”

Rodney didn’t expect that Amber would be so easy to talk to. It turned out that Amber would be very angry when he thought that he had washed Celia. He didn’t know why he hoped that Amber wouldn’t be angry, but when he saw her as if nothing had happened, he felt a little uneasy.

Rodney brought Amber back to Scent Villa. Because he had a purpose, Amber had always been very cooperative. She had never been so anxious before. She hoped that Rodney would be the best beast and fall into the house.

However, Rodney was not as she had imagined. He poured a cup of water for Amber and sat opposite her. “Did you see the TV show?”

Amber nodded, but he didn’t say anything. He just waited for him to continue. Rodney looked at her and said, “You must think that I’m hypocritical and disgusting.”

“A little.”

“Amber, I don’t know who is deliberately exaggerating this time. The impact is very bad. I have no choice, so I came up with such a method. Only in this way can I save Celia’s reputation.”

“You’re really nice to her!” Amber smiled faintly, and the sarcasm in the corners of his eyes was strong. When she was being scolded as a mistress, she didn’t see any action from Rodney, but when Celia was scolded, his heart ached for her. He couldn’t wait to help helping her solve the problem, and they were in a tie.

“I just don’t want to owe Celia anything. In the past, I owed her so much because of my mother. This time, I really can’t bear to see her being dragged into the whirlpool again. So…”

“That’s why you did such a thing.” Amber interrupted him. “I understand. In fact, you don’t need to explain. You and Celia are an unmarried couple. It’s normal for you to do anything for her. There’s no need to explain it to me.”

“Amber, I have to explain this to you. What I said on the show today, except that Celia’s matter is fake, is true. I have been waiting for you to give me a chance. I have never changed my heart for you!”

“Stop! Mr. Barron! I know that men rely on the lower half of their bodies to think. My heart has never changed, but you are raising children with other women? This topic is a little heavy. Even if I believe that you have never changed my heart, so what?”

Amber sneered. “Can I pretend that nothing happened when you cheated on another woman to raise your child?”

Originally, she had agreed to go against her wishes and deal with her own matters. However, when she heard Rodney’s words, she couldn’t help but become angry.

“I didn’t cheat! I didn’t have any relationship with Celia!” Rodney defended himself.
