Chasing My Rejected Wife
Chapter 161

As soon as he got off the plane, he turned on his phone. As expected, they had found out where Mel was.

After reading the information, he hurriedly pulled Amber, who was walking in front of him. “Amber, Mel is now in the The First Hospital.”

Amber turned around and asked anxiously, “How is he now?”

“Don’t worry. He’s just frightened. The doctor said he’s fine. He’ll be discharged after resting for a few days.”

Amber breathed a sigh of relief. On the plane, she had been worried about Mel’s safety. Although she also knew that Rachel would not harm Mel, Mel had been taken away by Rachel by force. She must be very scared. Maybe it would worsen her condition. Now, hearing Rodney’s words, she felt a little relieved.

Seeing that Amber was finally willing to ignore him, Rodney quickly said in a flattering tone, “My people are already waiting for us at the door. Let’s go to the hospital to see Mel right away.”

Amber glared at him and turned to continue walking forward.

Seeing that Amber didn’t refuse him, Rodney was secretly happy. He was afraid that Amber would ignore him because of this, so he really didn’t know what to do. This time, he wouldn’t dare to force her with that contract like before. Otherwise, he would lose her forever, and she would never let Mel recognize him as her father.

Rodney didn’t know that the reason why Amber didn’t refuse him to send her to the hospital was that he could see Mel as soon as possible.

In addition, she was worried that Rachel would refuse to let her take Mel away. With Rodney around, she could help persuade Rachel. Anyway, she had made up her mind that once she took Mel back from Rachel, she would never pay attention to Rodney again.

After taking the luggage and walking out of the security check, they heard someone shouting Amber’s name. Amber looked in the direction of the voice and saw Noemi walking toward her with a smile. Elliot followed Noemi and looked at her with a worried face.

“Noemi, Elliot, why are you here?” Looking at the two good friends in front of him, Amber was moved. Needless to say, Pierce must be worried about her, so he told them the news of her returning to our country and asked them to pick her up.

Noemi glared at Rodney, who was following behind Amber, and said, “We were afraid that you would be bullied by those shameless people, so we came to help you.”

“Yeah, Amber, I didn’t expect that some people would be so thick-skinned. They actually went to America to bully you. Don’t worry, I will definitely help you get Mel back.”

Elliot went forward and took Amber’s suitcase. He glared at Rodney and said, “Rodney, I thought you were a good person no matter how bad you were. Now I know that you’re not even as good as a beast. How could you do such a thing?”

“Shut up. Don’t talk nonsense before you figure out the situation.” Seeing that Elliot had come to pick Amber up, Rodney was already very unhappy. Now that he had been insulted like this, he was even more annoyed.

“I’m talking nonsense?” Elliot sneered. “Do you dare to say that you went to America to ruin Amber and Pierce’s marriage? Do you dare to say that it’s not your idea to take away Mel who is sick?”

Noemi also scolded, “That’s right. Why are you so vicious? Back then, you disdained Amber for being unable to give birth and drove her away. Now that you know Mel’s family background, you want to steal her son. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?”

At this moment, Deon walked over. Seeing that Rodney was being criticized by Elliot and the others, he hurriedly spoke up for him.

“You two have misunderstood. Our Mr. Barron never wanted to compete with Miss. Stone for Mel. It’s just the wife’s idea. Now that we have found Mel, let’s go there as soon as possible. I think Miss. Stone also wants to see the child as soon as possible.”

Elliot said, “Humph, no matter who it is, Mel is Amber’s son. No matter who it is, don’t go against her wishes and take Mel away. Rodney, I’m telling you, you’d better persuade your mother to let go, or we’ll meet again.”

“Alright, Elliot, let’s hurry up and look for Mel!” Amber glanced at Rodney’s face, which was black with anger, and quickly pulled Elliot away. She knew that in order to please him, Rodney was holding back his anger for Elliot. If Elliot said a few more words, he might hit him.

Elliot glared at Rodney before following Amber to the main entrance.

Rodney looked at Amber’s back and knew that she would definitely not take his car to the hospital. He could only say to Deon, “Let’s go.”

…

In The First Hospital of the Southern City, Rachel looked at the soup spilled all over the ground with anger and shouted to Riya, who was at a loss, “Hurry up and clean it up!”

This was the third time that Mel had knocked over the soup she had cooked. Riya cast a resentful glance at Mel, who was sitting on the bed, and lowered her head to clean up the mess.

At that time, Rachel tricked Mel out of the Hammond family with Breanna’s cooperation and took the plane straight to South City.

Mel woke up and could not see her mother. She began to cry loudly. No matter how Rachel coaxed her, it was useless. She was worried about Mel’s health, so she got off the plane and was sent to the hospital immediately.

The doctor checked and found that there was nothing wrong with her body. Rachel was relieved, so she asked someone to buy a lot of toys for Mel and accompanied her in a good way.

Mel noticed that the toy slightly diverted her attention, but she began to look for her mother again after the meeting. Rachel asked Riya to cook chicken soup for him, but he didn’t eat it. He even pushed the chicken soup away and sprinkled it all over Rachel’s body.

At first, Rachel could bear with her temper and coaxed Mel in a soft voice. Later, she saw that Mel refused to listen to her and kept scolding her as a bad mother-in-law, which made her angry with Riya. She said that the chicken soup she cooked was not delicious, so Mel refused to eat it and asked her to cook it again and send it to her.

Riya knew that Mel refused to drink chicken soup because she was angry. How could it be a problem with her cooking? But looking at Rachel, who was like a female Yaksha, she didn’t dare to say a word. She had to go back and cook another pot of fish soup, but Mel still didn’t eat it. Riya had no choice but to cook another pot of corn and pork ribs soup from Huai Mountain, but she was still slapped to the ground by Mel.

This time, Rachel did not make things difficult for Riya anymore. She knew that as long as she gave Mel anything, Mel would not eat it. Looking at the child’s red and swollen eyes, as well as his pale and pale face due to being tortured by the disease, she could not help but feel distressed. Finally, she took out her mobile phone and hid on the balcony to call Rodney.

Rodney was sitting in the car and rushing to the hospital. When he saw Rachel’s phone number on the screen, he quickly picked it up.

Rachel shouted at the phone, “Rodney, did you come back? Come to The First Hospital in the city as soon as you come back. Mel has been crying. No matter how I coax him, he won’t listen to me. It’s been more than ten hours. He just drank a box of milk and doesn’t want to eat anything. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to stand it if this goes on.”

Rodney’s heart trembled and his anger flared up. “Mom, look at what you’ve done. I told you to stay out of my business, but you just wanted to get involved. Are you in a hurry now?”

“It’s none of your business. You’re my son, and your son is my grandson. How can I ignore it? Now this child is throwing a tantrum. I’ll be fine when you come and help me coax him.”

“All right, I’ll be right there. Don’t provoke the child anymore. Hurry up and ask Riya to prepare delicious food. I’ll feed him later.”

Rodney knew that Mel might not be willing to eat as he said. Fortunately, Amber was on his way to the hospital. When Mel saw her later, she would definitely eat something. He did not dare to tell Rachel that Amber was about to arrive at the hospital soon. Otherwise, Rachel would definitely take Mel away again.

“The food, soup, and water are all ready. I want her to heat them up now.” Rachel breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the room. She asked Riya to heat up the food as soon as possible.

Mel lived in a senior ward, which was well equipped. Riya was holding the food to heat it. While Rachel was watching Mel outside, she hurriedly took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Shannon, telling her that Rodney had come back from the United States. It was very likely that Amber would come back with him.

Rachel took Mel back to South City this afternoon. Only then did Riya know that Mel was Rodney’s child. She immediately told Shannon about it. Shannon asked her to keep an eye on Rachel. If there was any news, she would report it at any time. Now that Rodney was back, she naturally had to report it to Shannon immediately.

Riya had just entered the kitchen for a while when the door of the ward was pushed open. Rachel heard the noise and hurriedly turned her head to have a look. She was stunned.

“Mel!” Amber stood at the door of the ward. When she saw Mel sobbing on the bed, she burst into tears. She rushed to Mel’s bed and held him in her arms.

“Mom, you’re finally here. I’m so scared! Woo…” Mel, who had been in a panic, suddenly saw her mother. She was happy and wronged. She cried and threw herself into Amber’s arms, holding her tightly, for fear that she would disappear again.

Feeling his son’s small body trembling in his arms, Amber’s heart was twisted with a knife. He patted Mel’s back and comforted her. “Mel, don’t be afraid. I’ll take you home. I’ll never leave you again.”

Rachel stared at Amber in disbelief. She thought that it was Rodney who had rushed over, but it was Amber. Needless to say, she must have come back with Rodney. That was why she knew that Mel was here so quickly. It seemed that she would definitely take Mel away.

Fear rose from the bottom of her heart. Rachel stepped forward to hug Mel and said to Amber sternly, “Don’t try to take Mel away. He is my grandson.”

Amber was caught off guard. Mel almost fell into Rachel’s arms. She quickly grabbed Mel’s arm and glared at Rachel. “Let go of me. Don’t you see Mel crying?”

“It should be you! It was so easy for me to bring my grandson back. I will never let you take him away.” Instead of letting go of Mel, Rachel tried hard to hold Mel in her arms.

Mel was so scared that she desperately called her mother. Amber was anxious and angry, but he didn’t want to drag his son hard. As soon as he loosened his grip, Mel was held by Rachel.

Rachel turned her head and saw Riya coming out of the kitchen. She said to her, “Riya, drive her away.”

Riya looked at Rachel and then looked at Amber. She hesitated and did not dare to move.

“Put Mel down quickly. You’ll scare him.” Seeing his son crying so hard that he was out of breath, Amber’s heart was about to break, but he didn’t dare to compete with Rachel for fear that Mel would fall to the ground like he did in the US that day.

At this time, two more people rushed in from outside the door. It was Noemi and Elliot. Seeing the situation in the room, Noemi went up to break Rachel’s hand and scolded, “You are a lunatic. Put Mel down quickly.”

Seeing that the helper had arrived, Amber quickly reached out to hug Mel. Rachel’s hand hurt because of Noemi. She let go of Mel with a cry.

Amber held Mel in his arms and walked out. Without waiting for the elevator, he ran down the stairs. Rachel saw him in a hurry and followed him out. She ignored her dignity and pulled Amber with curses.

Amber was worried that she would hurt her son, so she was not polite. She pushed Rachel hard. After all, Rachel was old and could not stand Amber’s push. She leaned back and fell heavily on the ground, rolling down the stairs.
