Seeing Rodney leave, Riya also bought some Honeysuckle and left the pharmacy. On the way back,
she called her son. “Tianhua, he won’t doubt anything, will he?”
“Don’t worry. I have nothing to do with you. He won’t think of it,” Clem replied.
Riya felt at ease after hearing Clem’s words. Clem had always kept the matter of his son a secret. Only
Shannon and she knew about it.
Speaking of which, she and Shannon were from the same village. Back then, she was also a member
of Little Parkview Street. She was a few years older than Shannon, so it was not surprising to call her
an old friend.
Parkview Street was full of bad people. It was difficult for people living there to get rid of mud and
water. Riya’s family was poor, so her life was naturally not comfortable. She had set up stalls with her
parents since she was a child. From early morning to night, she didn’t get much money. Her parents
were getting older day by day. Looking at her family’s disciples, Riya was very annoying.
When she was worried about life, a ruffian came to seduce her when she was young. The ruffian gave
her some money from time to time. Every girl was in love. Under the attack of the ruffian’s material and
sweet words, Riya quickly lived with the ruffian and had a son before getting married.
Riya’s parents were young and weak. In the end, they died one after another. Riya led her child to live
a few days with the local ruffians. However, the good times did not last long. Soon after she gave birth
to her son, the local ruffians were arrested and put in prison. Riya, an unmarried big girl, could not live
with her child. Later, she listened to other people’s advice and gave the child to a family without
children. The Moore family raised the child.
After the Moore family adopted the child, they made a condition that they would not allow her to appear
in the local area. Naturally, Riya was worried that the ruffian would come out to find trouble with the
child, so she agreed to the condition of the Moore family. The family was decent and gave her a sum of
money for this.
There was no way to settle down in the cat’s alley. Riya was forced to go abroad. During her work, she
met a man Watson. Later, she naturally got married to him.
In the beginning, she lived a sweet life for a few days. Later, Watson heard of her pregnancy from
somewhere and began to beat her. She knew that she had made a mistake first, so she tried her best
to fulfill it. However, it made Watson even more arrogant. He thought that he was a virgin when he
married her, but she was a loser, so he began to look for a woman outside.
Riya knew that she had no choice but to compromise. Seeing that she didn’t say a word, the man
Watson became more open-minded. He even brought the wild woman home to sleep with her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe couldn’t stand it. She finally resisted. The man Watson didn’t take her seriously. He punched and
kicked her, which made Riya’s face black and blue. Riya didn’t belong to the kind of timid person in her
bones. She hated him so much that she hated the man Watson. So she grabbed a hammer to resist.
The man Watson accidentally was beaten to death by her.
As a result, she was sentenced to prison for more than ten years. Riya was released in advance for her
good performance. In order to save her, she began to look for jobs everywhere. At this time, she met
Shannon, who was already the secretary’s wife. Shannon helped her find a nanny job for the sake of
being from the same hometown.
Riya had been a nanny for several years. Later, Shannon tried to make her a nanny in the Barron
family. From being a nanny in an ordinary family to being a nanny in a rich family of hundreds of
millions of years, it was a big change for Riya.
Although she was a nanny in the Barron family, she had much better food, clothing, housing, and
transportation than ordinary people. In order to live in the Barron family for a long time, she changed
her ways to please Rachel. No matter how angry she was, she would accept it. Her merits had been
recognized by Rachel, and she would establish a foothold in the Barron family from then on.
About three years after she came to the Barron family, she secretly returned to the South City and went
to inquire about her son’s situation. However, she learned that her son was going to be sentenced
because of an accident. Therefore, she went to ask Shannon for help. Shannon thought of a way to
help her son avoid punishment and let her son learn how to drive. In the end, she even let her son
become Channing’s driver.
Later, she learned that Shannon had her own purpose to let her become a nanny in the Barron family.
She was just a pawn. Riya was not a fool. However, Shannon had done her a favor and was supported
by a big tree. She slowly became the accomplice of Shannon and her daughter. It was her credit that
Amber could not get pregnant.
Originally, Amber wanted to leave the Barron family after the divorce, but Shannon persuaded her to
stay. She said that she would help Celia marry into the Barron family in the future, so she stayed.
Although Rachel was snobbish, she was not bad to her. Originally, she planned to save more money
for her son in the Barron family for a few more years and then find a place that no one knew. But
recently, Rachel began to serve her more and more. Because of her health and mood, she kept cursing
her every day.
Riya found that she couldn’t bear it anymore, so she asked her son to discuss it with her. She meant
that she was going to leave, but her son said that she would wait. Hearing her complaining, she was
scolded badly. Her son meant that he would buy some medicine in the pharmacy that could make
people sleep and give it to Rachel so that she could sleep all day and not curse. The mother and son
were ready to go to the pharmacy to see the situation, but she didn’t expect to meet Rodney.
Although her son said that Rodney would not doubt her, Riya was still a little afraid in her heart. As the
saying goes, if you do not do anything bad, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. She had
done so many bad things. How could she not feel guilty?
When she returned to the hospital, Rachel was losing her temper in the ward. When she saw her
coming in, she opened her mouth and scolded, “Where did you go?”
“I went to the pharmacy to buy some Honeysuckle water.” Riya smiled and said, “I just saw Mr. Barron.
He said he would come to see you right away.”
Although she had been injured for a hundred days, Rachel’s injury was not serious. After the doctor’s
surgery, she was actually fine. The reason why she was lying in the hospital was to seek her son’s
sympathy, but it was contrary to her wishes. Rodney had already gone to ask the doctor and knew that
her condition was not serious, so he was relieved to ask a doctor for Mel.
During this period of time, Rodney had disappeared without a trace, not even a phone call. Rachel was
extremely angry. Now when she heard from Riya that her son would come to see her, she immediately
became energetic and her mood became better.
Sure enough, Rodney came to the hospital to see her in the afternoon. When he saw his son, Rachel,
he couldn’t help crying. “Rodney, where did you go? I’ve been lying in the hospital these days and it’s
so painful. How could you do this to me? You don’t even want your mother for a woman?”
“Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? I went to find a doctor for Mel, didn’t I?” Looking at his
mother’s appearance, Rodney felt uncomfortable.
“How is Mel?” Rachel dried her tears.
“It’s not a big deal at the moment. The doctor asked me to take medicine to check the situation,”
Rodney replied. Then he looked at Rachel and said, “Mom, I just went to ask the doctor. He said that
you don’t need to stay in the hospital, and you can be discharged from the hospital. I want to find two
nurses for you to take care of you.”
Rachel originally wanted to perform in front of her son to tell him how she felt and how painful she felt.
Unexpectedly, her son had already inquired about the situation. She blushed and couldn’t say a word
for a while. Rodney quickly invited two professional nurses to take Rachel home.
With her son accompanying her home, Rachel was in a much better mood. On the way home, she kept
asking about the news of Mel. Knowing that her mother had a sharp tongue and a soft heart, Rodney
showed the photos he had taken with Mel at noon to her mother.
Rachel couldn’t help but laugh when she saw how adorable Mel was. If her grandson could stay with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher every day, it would be a wonderful thing. She thought of the request she had made for Rodney.
“Rodney, can you bring Mel home to have some fun?”
“This won’t do.” Rodney firmly refused.
“Why not? Mel is my grandson. As a grandma, I want to see what’s wrong with him.”
“Mom, do you think he would be willing to see you when you treated him like that last time?”
Thinking of the child’s resistance to her, Rachel was a little discouraged and muttered, “It’s all Amber’s
fault. If it weren’t for her, would I have been separated from my grandson?”
“Don’t blame Amber. Amber is not as unbearable as you think. She said that as long as Mel gets better,
she will let Mel reconcile with me. At that time, it will be easy for you to see your grandson, won’t it?”
“Did she really say that?” Rachel was suspicious. “Son, did she lie to you on purpose?”
“Does she need to lie to me?”
“That’s hard to say. She might have done it in person. Maybe it’s her plan to stall for time. I’m telling
you, if I hadn’t warned her to hurt people on purpose and restricted her rights, she might have taken the
child abroad and married Pierce.”
Rodney didn’t say anything. It was true that if his mother hadn’t warned Amber to restrict her marriage,
Amber might have taken the child abroad to get married to Pierce. Thinking of this, he felt a little
depressed.
“Let me tell you, we won’t stop her from getting married, but we must keep the child. I can’t let my
grandson call someone else’s father.” Rachel was nagging.
Rodney was a little annoyed. “The best way to prevent your grandson from calling someone else’s
father is to let Amber marry me. Otherwise, you won’t be able to stop Amber.”
“Who said that? Can’t I just fight for the child’s right to raise her?” Rachel did not feel that it was
inappropriate at all.
Rodney couldn’t help sneering. “Mom, do you think you have the ability to compete with Amber for the
right to raise Mel?”
“Why not?”
“Not to mention that Amber has suffered so much with Mel for so many years, Mel has her own choice.
You can’t pass the test of Mr. Black. Do you think you will ignore the competition between you and
Amber for Mr. Black Mel?”
Rachel was speechless. How could she forget that Amber’s biological father was Channing? Indeed,
as long as Channing helped her, she would never be able to get Mel’s right to raise her.
However, if she was allowed to help Rodney and Amber, she would feel uncomfortable. With Amber’s
current status, he would definitely not be as submissive as he used to be. At that time, there would
definitely be a lot of noise and disputes. Then, she would not be able to spend the rest of her life in the
family.
