Chasing My Rejected Wife -
Chapter 168
Rachel left the hospital and went home. As an old friend, Itzel naturally came to see her. The two of them talked about some family affairs and soon talked about Celia.
Itzel told Rachel that Celia had gone to the hospital for a check-up and it had been confirmed that she was pregnant. She asked Rachel to make plans early. Rachel was naturally happy to get the exact news of Celia’s pregnancy. It was a good thing for the Barron family to have many grandchildren, but it was a problem for her son. She couldn’t be in a hurry. She had to do it slowly.
She told Itzel that this matter must be kept a secret. She would let Celia take care of her health first. When the time was right, she would tell her son. When the time came, she would settle the matter between Celia and Rodney. She wanted to see what else Amber could do.
This time, Itzel came to see Rachel’s attitude. Seeing that she was very enthusiastic about Celia’s pregnancy, Itzel was relieved. However, Rachel told her about the auction for the sports meeting.
The bidding for the sports meeting had entered the countdown. Naturally, Rachel had been paying attention to it. She heard that Elliot was using a native-style design team. Although Rodney had found Zico as the chief designer, Rachel still felt uneasy.
There was always an accident, just like the last city development. Her son and she had always thought that it was settled, but in the end, they lost to Elliot. This time, they couldn’t relax. They must do it safely.
Although her son was trying his best to solve the problem and told her not to meddle in it, how could Rachel not care about it? If such a big project could be managed by her son’s company, her future would be limitless.
On the contrary, if the Parableutions snatched it this time, it would have a huge impact on the Barron Enterprises. It would not be a good thing if the status of the head of the Barron Enterprises was shaken.
Itzel had said before that Shannon would think of a way to help Rodney. Thinking of this, Rachel especially asked Itzel if there was any explanation for it.
Itzel nodded. “I’m not only here today to talk about Celia, but also about this matter. Shannon has already helped Rodney get a copy of the venue’s Forging Design. With this Forging Design and the owner of Barron Enterprises’ bid, he will definitely win the bid this time.”
As she spoke, she opened her bag and took out the drawing she got from Issac. Rachel was overjoyed. She thanked Itzel and promised that as long as Barron Enterprises won the sports meeting, she would not treat Celia badly.
With Rachel’s guarantee, Itzel left happily. Rachel was also very happy. She immediately called her son and asked him to go home as soon as possible, saying that she had something important to discuss with him.
When Rodney returned home, Rachel gave Rodney the Forging Design that Itzel had given her. Rodney was shocked when he saw the Forging Design. He took the Forging Design and hurried back to the company. He immediately summoned the designers for a meeting. The chief designer, Zico, was shocked when he saw the drawing. “Mr. Barron, where did you get the drawing? This design is very similar to Issac’s style?”
“I think so too.” Rodney agreed with Zico’s words. “I’m just not sure!”
“I’m sure this is Issac’s work.” Zico took the drawing and looked at it carefully for a while. “I heard that he lived in seclusion in South City and didn’t care about worldly affairs. I didn’t expect that he would give me such a big gift. With this drawing, I don’t have to worry about accepting the sports meeting.”
On Rodney’s side, the bidding for the sports meeting was a foregone conclusion. On Elliot’s side, he wasn’t idle either. With the Forging Design that Issac had given him, he already knew the result of the bidding.
On the day of the bidding, after dozens of experts’ discussion, they came to the same conclusion that the design drawings of the main stadium sent by Barron Enterprises were ingenious and were sent to the main stadium by Sheng Shisheng.
Although the main stadium sent by the Parableutions was not as good as the Barron Enterprises, the deputy stadium and the staff members were better than the deputy stadium and the staff members sent by the Barron Enterprises. In the end, everyone agreed that the main stadium would be built with the Barron Enterprises’ Forging Design, while the deputy stadium and the staff members would be built with the drawings of the Parableutions.
The result of the collaboration between the Parableutions and the Barron Enterprises could be said to be a great joy. Elliot was already aware of this result and was not surprised. However, Rodney did not have much objection to this result. On the other hand, Rachel was not satisfied at all after hearing the result. The construction of the venue and the Parableutions were going to share a piece of the pie, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
For this reason, she called Itzel and told her about it. Itzel was also puzzled. The drawing she gave Rachel was her brother’s work. By right, Barron Enterprises’s decision was certain. How could there be an accident? Could it be that Channing had done something behind the scenes?
Although it was not confirmed that Channing was playing tricks, in order to deal with Rachel’s nagging, she immediately put the blame on Channing. Rachel had no other choice. After venting her dissatisfaction for a while, she had to hang up the phone.
Because the sports meeting was organized by two companies, Elliot and Rodney specially set up a joint venture company. Barron Enterprises was led by Rodney, while the Sheng Shi Group was led by Elliot.
The joint venture company held a press conference after a few days of cooperation. Elliot and Rodney appeared at the press conference in a suit and looked handsome. They answered the questions of the reporters one by one.
The two people, who used to be rivals, now had a smile on their faces when they became partners. People who didn’t know them would think that they were good friends.
Amber couldn’t help sighing in his heart when he saw the two of them appear on the television without any grudges. Who said that the actors were all actors? The people in the business world were much better at acting than the actors.
In the evening, the two companies naturally held a celebration ceremony. Elliot just showed up on behalf of Deon and asked him to preside over the event, while he returned to Amber’s villa in the western suburbs.
In the villa in the western suburbs, Ashton cooked a table of good dishes with the help of Noemi. He was waiting for Elliot to come over for dinner. Elliot came in and congratulated him in a room. Even Mel also congratulated him in a childish voice.
Elliot happily held Mel and kissed her crazily. Noemi and Ashton put the food on the table. Elliot opened the wine cellar with a smile and took out the good wine he had treasured. For a moment, the fragrance of wine was overflowing, and the whole room was filled with laughter.
Amber was pregnant and couldn’t drink, so she only drank some juice. Noemi and Ashton drank a lot with Elliot, and they were all slightly drunk. In the end, Elliot didn’t leave because he drank too much, but lived in the villa in the western suburbs.
It had been some time since Breanna returned to South City. Ever since she returned, Elliot had only shown up once and had never been seen again. On the contrary, Elliot, who was an outsider to Amber, had been reporting every day.
Breanna knew that Elliot had asked Amber to live in his villa in the western suburbs. She was very angry. Her real fiancee had been thrown into the hotel and ignored, but Amber was living in Elliot’s villa. What was going on?
Although she was angry, she did not forget the three-year agreement that Elliot had made with her. Elliot had said that she had no right to interfere with his business. Only when she could tolerate it would she continue the three-year agreement. On the contrary, everything would be ruined.
Breanna was upset, but she didn’t dare to act on her own, for fear of provoking Elliot’s bad luck. However, the success of this sports meeting was the top priority for the Parableutions. Her fiancee was not in South City, but now in South City, Elliot had to give her some face to take her to attend the event, right?
But she was wrong. She waited from morning to night, but Elliot did not make a phone call. Breanna was so angry that she went to the place where Elliot’s company was holding a celebration, regardless of the consequences. When she arrived at the place, she found that Elliot was not there at all, leaving only Walter and several backbones to support her.
Breanna knew where Elliot had gone to. She drove to the villa in the western suburbs angrily. Looking at the brilliant lights in the villa and listening to the laughter coming from inside, Breanna was angry. Amber occupied the nest. He hung his eldest brother Pierce and was entangled with Elliot. She had to talk to him.
The next day, Breanna came to visit Amber. Seeing that Elliot’s real fiancee came to visit Amber, she was more polite. She invited her to sit down and poured tea for her. However, Breanna did not appreciate it and said coldly.
“Amber, you seem to be living comfortably in my fiance’s house, don’t you? But I don’t know if my silly brother is clear about the situation here?”
“Pierce knew about this. He was the one who asked Elliot to take care of us,” replied Amber.
“My big brother is playing the hero on purpose. In fact, he may not think so in his heart.” Breanna smiled playfully. “Amber, you and Elliot once had that kind of relationship. Do you think my big brother will really rest assured in his heart?”
“Ms. Hammond, Elliot and I had a relationship before, but since you got engaged to him, we were just ordinary friends. As for Pierce, I have known him for so many years, and he knows me well. He knows that I am not that kind of person, and I know my identity very well.”
“Really? I have one more thing to remind you. Amber, you’re just an outsider to Elliot, and I’m his real fiancee. Do you think it’s appropriate for me, your real fiancee, to live in a hotel and be neglected every day for you?”
“I’m sorry, I was negligent. I’ll replace a place to move out right away.” Amber finally understood what Breanna meant. He was unhappy to see himself living in Elliot’s villa and wanted to drive him away.
Breanna was now Elliot’s fiancee. She was different from before. She did have the right to drive him away. Amber chose to give in.
“Move away? Where can you move out? Don’t tell me you’re going to complain to Elliot right now?” Breanna did not believe that she would really move out.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Hammond. I won’t be so despicable.” Amber thought for a moment. “I’ll just move back to where my uncle lives.”
“Amber, your uncle lives in Elliot’s house. Don’t tell me you don’t know that you’re playing dumb?” Breanna sneered.
“Elliot was really willing to put in a lot of effort for you, so he deliberately asked someone to put on such a show. In fact, you are so smart. I don’t believe that you won’t know the inside story at all.”
Breanna told them that the house that Amber rented belonged to Elliot.
“Ms. Hammond, you’re being too serious. I really don’t know that the house belongs to Elliot. Since that’s the case, I’ll replace another house to stay in.” Amber naturally did not expect Elliot to do such a thing for him. She felt extremely apologetic.
“Amber, you don’t have to replace a house to live in. If you want me to rest assured, you have a very good choice.”
“What choice?”
“Rodney? Rodney has so many houses in South City, and Mel is his son. It’s natural for me to raise my son. If you move into Rodney’s house, nothing will happen. Elliot won’t pester you, and I will also believe you. It’s such a good thing that the three of you can join the group.”
“That’s impossible!” Amber refused. “Rodney and I are already divorced. I won’t have anything to do with him anymore.”
“Amber, your words are really puzzling. Rodney is your ex-husband and Mel’s father. After the divorce abroad, your husband has to bear the burden of his wife and children’s children. It’s natural for you to use his money to live in Rodney’s house. But why did you always refuse? I couldn’t figure it out even if I thought about it before, but today I finally understand.”
“I wonder what Ms. Hammond has understood?”
“Amber, you’re a typical example of eating in a bowl and looking at a pot. You’re hanging up my brother and Elliot while you’re hanging up. Are you very proud that men are willing to sacrifice themselves for you?”
“Is this what a well-educated young lady like you said? I really doubt Ms. Hammond’s upbringing!” Amber’s expression changed and he spoke rudely. He did not have a good impression of Breanna, but he had tolerated her for the sake of Pierce. Now that Breanna wanted to provoke him further, he would not be polite to her.
“I don’t think there is anything wrong with my upbringing. But Miss. Stone, if you are well educated, please don’t be so shameless to live in someone else’s fiance’s house. Don’t be pregnant with other people’s children and want to marry my brother. My brother is not a good-for-nothing.” Since they had fallen out, Breanna didn’t want to continue to pretend. She began to talk in a strange tone.
“You…” Amber was so angry that his face turned green. “Get out!”
