Celia was stunned. She was holding a bag in her hand as she stood at the door, watching what was
taking place in the office. Celia’s appearance didn’t cause Rodney to be flustered or afraid at all. He
turned his head calmly and asked, “Why are you here?”
His voice was gentle, but his eyes were extremely cold. Seeing his cold expression, Celia felt a chill in
her heart. “I… I’m here because….”
When she saw that it was actually Amber who was behind Rodney, she paused, at a loss for words.
She thought that Rodney was flirting with some other woman in the office, but she didn’t expect that it
would be Amber.
“Why did Amber come to Rodney’s office? When did they start seeing each other?” Celia’s thoughts
were all over the place. Seeing that Celia was round-eyed, Amber sneered in her heart. She pushed
Rodney away and strode off.
…
Although Amber didn’t wish to be treated that way by Rodney, but she felt especially glee because
Celia was there and got to witness what had happened.
In the past, Celia had shamelessly intruded into her marriage. How brazen she was. What goes around
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcomes around. Rodney was not a saint. Since he could betray her back then, he could naturally betray
Celia as well. In the future, there would be a day for Celia to weep.
When Amber got back in the car, Elliot called her up. “Is the gift delivered?”
“Yes!”
“What kind of expression did Rodney have?”
“He… he seems very happy!” Amber bullsh*tted.
“Now Rodney must be so embarrassed instead of being happy, right?” thought Amber. She pursed her
lips and laughed.
In the president’s office upstairs, Rodney casually sat in a chair and stared at Celia. He did not explain
and showed no panic. Celia could feel a chill running down her spine.
She had always known that she had no place in Rodney’s heart. In the past, she had always thought
that it was because Amber stole the spotlight, so Rodney couldn’t see the good in her.
After forcing Amber to leave, Rodney did not approach any other woman. In the past three years, she
had always regarded herself as Rodney’s girlfriend and he had never objected it. Hence, she always
thought that there was still a place for her in Rodney’s heart. But now, seeing that Rodney did not even
bother to give her an explanation, she finally realised that she had been thinking too highly of herself.
She was a witness of Rodney’s ruthlessness towards Amber three years ago. He was able to be so
heartless towards Amber, the woman whom he was so madly in love with. So how could she expect
him to be gentle with herself?
Keeping her emotions in control, she squeezed out a smile and said, “My dad said that he would like to
meet Ms. Grant tonight. I gave you a call but you didn’t pick up, so I came up to ask if you are free
tonight….”
“No, I’m not free!” Rodney frankly rejected her.
In the past, when Amber wasn’t back here, Rodney still treated her quite well. At least on the surface,
he wasn’t as harsh as he was just now. Now that Amber had returned, he seemed to have suddenly
become another person. Hate was in Celia’s heart, but she continued to ask in a soft and delicate
voice, “When are you free then?”
“I’ve been very busy lately. I’m occupied with a construction bidding. We’ll talk about it when that is
over.”
After leaving Rodney’s office, the gentleness in Celia’s face disappeared in an instant and was

She quickly got in her car and called her mother, Shannon. “Mom, I’m so angry!”
“What’s wrong?”
“I went to Rodney’s office just now and saw Amber. That b*tch was seducing Rodney in the office!”
“What?” Shannon raised her voice.
“There was a set of sexy lingerie on the table. Both of them were behaving intimately. If I hadn’t got
there in time, they would have…”
“This little b*tch is too loathsome!” Shannon was so angry that she was fuming. “What happened after
that?”
“Amber ran away when she saw me and Rodney treated me coldly. Mum, I never had a place in his
heart. He treated me quite well previously when Amber had disappeared. Recently, he has become
more and more indifferent. I’m worried!”
“Don’t worry, let me deal with it!” Shannon’s voice sounded ferocious. “I will not allow anyone to block
my daughter’s path. Since she’s asking for trouble, then don’t blame it on me!”
“Mom, what do you plan to do?”
“Doesn’t she like seducing men? Then I’ll find a man to satisfy her!”
