In the past, Rodney felt guilty for Celia and felt that his mother and he owed her. Celia was young and
in her prime, and had a good future. It was her mother who innocently let her get involved in the right
and wrong.
Later, when he learned that it was Channing and Shannon’s plot, he felt more sympathy for Celia.
Especially when he heard Itzel say that Celia could not give birth to children, his sympathy reached the
top. Knowing that he could not resurrect Amber, he chose to get engaged to Celia.
On the one hand, he chose to be with Celia. On the one hand, he felt guilty for her kindness. On the
other hand, he was desperate. It had nothing to do with love. Celia had always been considerate and
gentle in front of Rodney. Rodney never dreamed that Celia would come up with such a bad idea to
deal with Amber.
He was not a fool. He didn’t believe that it was Zoe’s doing at all. This time, he made a very wrong
choice to deal with it.
Because he had made Amber suffer such a big blow, he had to stop his relationship with Celia.
Rodney really didn’t blame Celia for doing such a thing. He was Celia’s fiance, but he was incompetent.
He didn’t have her, his fiancee, in his heart. He played with another woman behind his fiancee’s back.
He was sorry for him.
However, Amber was innocent. Amber shouldn’t have suffered such pain and humiliation. Rodney was
prepared to let his mother and him clarify everything.
Amber said that he wanted to break up with Celia, but he didn’t expect that before Deon could do it, the
relationship between Celia and him had been magnified. Seeing that Celia had been attacked, Rodney
had thought about it for a long time. He not only announced the relationship with Amber in public, but
also got rid of the relationship with Celia.
Now that Amber had promised to give him a chance, Rodney was going to make it clear to Celia that
she would continue to treat her illness. He would do everything he could to make it up to her, but he
would no longer interfere with her relationship.
However, Celia refused his request to meet him, saying that he had no time to take care of Channing.
It was a fact that Channing had just fallen ill. Rodney didn’t want to push him too hard, so he hung up
the phone. Seeing that there was nothing to eat at home, he drove to the supermarket.
Amber didn’t fall asleep until dawn. She was woken up by hunger. When she opened her eyes, she
found that it was already noon. There was no sign of Rodney on the bed. She struggled to get up from
the bed and went downstairs.
Rodney’s breakfast was still on the table. Amber didn’t care. He wolfed it down and went upstairs to
take a shower.
When she came back after taking a shower and changing her clothes, Rodney came back from the
supermarket. “Are you hungry? I’ll cook right away.”
“Don’t you have to go to the company?” Amber was confused. “Rodney shouldn’t be so idle. He’s
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcooking for me at home at noon. It’s strange.”
“I’ll stay with you for the next few days.”
“I don’t need you to accompany me. You’d better go to the company.” Feeling that her tone was a little
stiff, she added, “Since you want to start over, it won’t take a day or two. We have a long way to go.”
Rodney was exceptionally happy to hear her words. He said softly, “I’m going to cook first. I’m going to
the company after dinner.”
Since he said so, Amber did not stop him. He allowed him to cook in the kitchen. Seeing that he was
going to cook and thinking about what he could do, he also walked to the door of the kitchen. “Do you
need my help?”
“It’s fine as long as you watch from the side,” Rodney replied. Amber felt a little strange when he
thought of how he had never done anything before when he saw Rodney washing rice and putting it
into the pot.
Looking at her thoughtful expression, Rodney explained, “Do you think it’s strange that I can cook?
When you left, I thought it was very difficult to cook. I missed you every day, not just because you
wanted to eat the dishes made by you. Compared with what you cooked, I couldn’t swallow the dishes
cooked by Auntie. So I tried to cook when you cooked. Although I haven’t been as good as you in the
past three years, I’m almost as good as you.”
Amber replied with an “oh”. She didn’t know what to say to Rodney’s explanation. He was telling her
that he missed her, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit happy. She would rather Rodney be hypocritical
in everything he had done to her. That way, she would be able to walk around in a natural and
unrestrained manner, and they wouldn’t owe each other anything!
“I bought some fruits that you like. You wash them yourself and eat them!” Rodney noticed that she
was in a daze and reminded him.
Amber responded and turned to look. When she saw that Rodney had bought a fork in the car, she
picked up a fork and played with it in her hand.
His voice came from behind. “I won’t let you live like before. Don’t worry, I won’t let you eat the fruits
you like!”
Amber didn’t say anything. He continued, “I’ll transfer the company’s shares under your name. In a few
days, we’ll take Mel back. Don’t worry about keeping your child by your side.”
His words shocked Amber. He turned to look at Rodney and said, “No! Mel is being treated there. We
can’t take him back!”
“Don’t worry. I’m already thinking of a way to solve the medical problem you’re worried about. I won’t
joke about Mel’s illness.”
“Let’s talk about this later.” Amber refused. She had never thought of being reunited with Rodney, nor
would she let Mel and Rodney stay under the same roof.
“I know, I just want to tell you first.” Rodney also knew that everything needed to be done step by step.
If he was forced too hard, it would backfire.
The most important thing was that he hadn’t made it clear to Celia yet. He had to deal with all his
troubles, so as not to hurt Amber and Mel again.
After lunch, Rodney went to the company under Amber’s urging. After he left, Amber looked around the
villa. It had been several days since she moved into the villa. She had never carefully observed the
situation of the villa.
Amber walked around the upper and lower floors of the villa and found that many places in Rodney’s
villa were decorated in line with her mind, such as children’s rooms, decorations, and furniture choices.
No wonder it said that their hobbies would change as time went by. It seemed that the five years they
had spent together were not the same.
While she was thinking, Noemi called and said, “Amber, I saw Shannon go to the beauty salon. Do you
want me to go in and have a look?”
“What are you looking at?” Amber did not respond to Noemi’s words. It was not a big deal for Shannon
to enter the beauty salon.
“What is she doing inside? Your father is seriously ill in bed, but she is in the mood for beauty. Don’t
you think there is something fishy in it?”
Noemi didn’t know that Channing was pretending to be sick, but Amber knew. It seemed that Channing
had told Shannon about pretending to be sick, so Shannon was in the mood to do beauty care. She
couldn’t tell Noemi that Channing was pretending to be sick, so she persuaded her. “Forget it, there is a
reason for her to do beauty care. You can do your own business. Don’t worry about her.”
Hearing her words, Noemi had to give up the idea of going in to have a look. The two talked about
something else, and then hung up the phone.
Itzel was not in a good mood after meeting Rachel. She thought that she could reverse the situation
with her wits, but she didn’t expect that the incident of Channing would cause Rachel to directly block
her way out. Damn Channing, why did nothing happen to him at this critical moment?
Channing deserved to be on the 18th floor of hell, but he couldn’t drag others down with him if he
wanted to die! Itzel hated Channing in her heart. She wanted him to die, but she didn’t want anything to
happen to him at this time. Channing was about to get into trouble. What about Celia?
Shannon must have thought that the reason why she tried her best to help Celia was that they had
once been in cahoots with each other. It was because she hated Ashley and wanted to get all the
grievances she had suffered from Ashley’s daughter. However, she didn’t know that Celia had her own
purpose. If it weren’t for Celia being her daughter, could she do her best to help her?
Speaking of Celia being his daughter, Itzel was really upset. She loved and hated Celia. She loved her
because she was the flesh that fell out of Itzel’s body. Itzel hated her because Celia was the most ugly
memory in her heart.
If it weren’t for the fact that she couldn’t give birth in this life, how could she give birth to her at the risk
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmof losing all her dignity? The culprits of all this were Ashley and Channing.
It was said that blood was thicker than water. According to common sense, she and Ashley were half-
sisters. They should have had a blind date and loved each other, but the fact was that they had always
been enemies.
Her mother was the daughter of a poor family. She was forced to marry Ashley’s father because of her
family’s decline. Later, she gave birth to Ashley and Ashton.
Ashley’s father died of lung disorder, leaving a family of orphans and a widow behind. Life was very
difficult. Later, his mother met the missing young painter Johnson. Johnson was a famous painter in the
local area. His family was well-off, and his wife left him a son, Issac, five years after she got married to
him.
Johnson happened to meet his mother in a life of calligraphy. He was fascinated by her beauty, so he
started to pursue his mother. Johnson’s elegant demeanor naturally attracted his mother. The couple
had a crush on each other, so it was natural for them to be together.
Johnson and her mother agreed to take care of Ashley and Ashton. This was supposed to be a happy
thing, but the members of the Stone family made a mistake. They gave their mother two choices. One
was to stay in the Stone family to take care of the two children, the other was to leave the two children
and leave with Johnson.
On one hand, it was hard to meet her beloved man. On the other hand, it was family affection. Her
mother was in a dilemma. In the end, she put love first and left a pair of children behind.
Later, she learned that someone in the Stone family was thinking about her mother and was ready to
marry her. However, her mother did not like that person, so the Stone family used the child to threaten
her mother and force her to surrender.
Her mother had agreed to let go of the two children and marry Johnson because she was pregnant. In
that case, she had no other choice. Although her mother had married Johnson, she had been worried
about Ashley and Ashton. Since she was sensible, she had been missing Ashley and Ashton for a long
time.
When she was a child, she was very looking forward to Ashley’s sister. Later, when she saw Ashley,
she couldn’t like her at all. She remembered that when she was five years old, her mother took her
back to the Stone family to see Ashley and Ashton. However, she was rejected. Those vulgar women in
the Stone family scolded their mother for her foul words. They said that their mother was shameless
and shameless. It was only a few months after her husband died that she hooked up with another man.
She even called her a b*stard and the one who had hooked up with her. Her mother left with her with a
gray face, which cast a shadow on her heart at such a young age. If it weren’t for Ashley, her mother
and she wouldn’t have suffered such humiliation.
Although her mother married Johnson, they were a loving couple, but they were not very popular in the
Lott family. The Lott family was also a literary family, so they were very against their mother’s
pregnancy. When she was a child, she often heard the servants gossiping behind her. She also saw
her mother secretly wipe her tears in the room after being excluded by others.
Johnson couldn’t bear to see his wife endure such humiliation. In the end, he took his wife away from
South City and went to another country. There was no discrimination or gossip here. They lived a very
happy life.
