After doing all this, he slammed the door. Rodney smiled bitterly. Amber was really good-tempered. He
squatted down and picked up the things that Mel threw out. A sarcastic voice came from behind him.
“Hey! Isn’t this Mr. Barron? What is he doing outside my house?”
Rodney turned around and saw Elliot standing by with his arms crossed. His eyes were filled with
ridicule. Rodney did not say anything. He picked up the things one by one and put them into the bag.
Only then did he reach out to Elliot and said, “Mr. Thomson, nice to meet you!”
“Don’t! I can’t afford it.” Elliot had no intention of shaking hands with him. “Rodney, I’m looking down on
you more and more. Do you think you can’t wait to compete with Amber for the child? Mel is your son.
He’s sick. Don’t you think it’s cruel for you to tell him all this at this time?”
Elliot didn’t know the whole story, but he heard from Noemi that Mel already knew that Rodney was her
father. Amber didn’t tell Noemi that Breanna came to provoke him. Noemi had a bad temper. If she
knew that Breanna came to provoke him, she would definitely tell Elliot. Amber didn’t want to see the
difference between Elliot and Breanna.
“I didn’t say that!” Rodney felt that he had been wronged. “I never thought that I would snatch the child
from Amber.”
“Alright, stop explaining. Who else could it be if it wasn’t you? Could it be your mother? As far as I
know, your mother’s body hasn’t fully recovered yet. It’s not the right time for you to find an excuse.”
Elliot would never believe Rodney’s explanation.
Rodney smiled bitterly. “It wasn’t my mom. It was your fiancee who told Mel.”
“Breanna? How is that possible?” Elliot could not believe it.
“That’s the truth. Your fiancee came here yesterday because she told Mel all this.”
“Damn it!” Elliot’s face suddenly changed. How could he forget that there was a time bomb like
Breanna? Breanna had always been good at scheming. She was indeed a person who could do such a
thing. Elliot was originally ready to enter the house, but because of Rodney’s words, he turned around
and drove away.
It seemed that he was going to look for Breanna’s bad luck, but Rodney didn’t have time to care about
it.
Speaking of these things, it was Breanna who did it. She deliberately revealed that Mel was her child
for her own benefit. She was the one who incited her mother to bring Mel back to the country. She was
the one who told Mel that she had a relationship with Mel. Now that their family was in such a mess,
how could she stand by and watch them?
When Amber came back from grocery shopping, she saw Rodney standing at the door and putting a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfew bags on the ground. The bags were filled with food and toys. She immediately understood what
was going on. “Mel is very resistant now. Come back after a while.”
“Amber, I want to talk to you. Let’s have a good talk.” Rodney pleaded.
“What are you talking about?” Amber asked.
“Let’s talk about Mel and our relationship.”
“Mel doesn’t want to see you now, and so do you. As for us, we have nothing to say for a long time.”
Amber said faintly.
“Amber, you said that you don’t want to hear me say sorry, and I don’t want to say sorry again. I want to
say something to you. Let’s reconcile for the sake of the child. Go and get the marriage certificate
immediately.”
“You don’t have a fever, do you?”
“No, I think it very clearly. The reason why Mel resisted me now is that I think I abandoned you and
your mother. I want to change her impression of me.”
“So in order to reverse Mel’s impression of you, you want to reunite with me?” Amber smiled playfully.
“Rodney, you really don’t have to make such a sacrifice. Mel’s prejudice against you is because he is
still young. I will tell him slowly not to hate you. I don’t have much ability, but I will keep my word.”
“You still have the nerve to keep your word. Since you keep your word, you shouldn’t have forgotten
what you promised me, right?” Rodney asked, “You promised me that you would give me a chance for
Mel, but now you’ve broken your promise.”
“Don’t tell me you don’t know why I broke my promise?” Amber sneered. “I’m indeed prepared to give
you a chance, but you’re too much. There’s no need for me to keep my promise to a man who keeps
lying.”
“Amber, even if you give the death penalty criminal a chance to sue him. Tell me, what on earth has
made you leave without hesitation?”
Amber looked at Rodney for a while and said faintly, “It’s nothing. It’s just that your lover, Kelsey, called
me and told me that she was with you. You will live soon.”
“It’s impossible. I haven’t been with Kelsey. That night, she was about to invite me to dinner. I drank
some wine and then invited a designated driver. On the way, I encountered Celia’s car broken…”
Rodney told her what he remembered that night.
“Was it Celia who sent you home?” Amber was stunned.
“I don’t remember. When I got up in the morning, my mother said that,” Rodney replied, “From the
beginning, Kelsey and I were innocent when we left her. I never intended to let her be my lover. Amber,
ever since you left, I have never touched a woman. I swear!”
Amber didn’t say anything. That night, she called Rodney. It was Rachel who answered the phone. She
was sure that Kelsey was not with Rodney. So was it Kelsey’s prank?
She shook her head. “Rodney, everything that happened in the past is in the past. There’s no need to
investigate further. Right now, I only care about my son’s condition. There’s no point in doing anything
else.”
“Amber, for the sake of the child’s illness, you should also reunite with me. Mel needs a father. What we
need to do now is to solve everything and get together again, to give the child a happy and happy
family. Only in this way can the child’s illness recover quickly.”
Amber smiled bitterly. “Rodney, it’s not that I don’t want to give you a chance, it’s just that I can’t give
you a chance. Your mother won’t give us a chance either. Your mother and I are in such a mess, so
don’t have any more complex illusions. It’s better to keep it in mind.”
“I’ve already told my mother that she won’t stop us anymore…”
Amber interrupted him. “Rodney, your mother never goes back on her words. You’d better not believe
her too much.”
“Amber, this time, it’s true. You don’t have to worry about my mother’s reaction. I won’t let her affect
you.” Rodney eagerly confessed.
“Amber, didn’t you just say that you would let them all go through the past? Let’s not fuss about the
past now. Let’s look forward. You are pregnant now. Mel will have no father when she is born. You don’t
want this child to have no father when it is born, do you?”
Amber was silent for a while before he said, “Rodney, I’ll find a way to communicate with Mel. He hates
you now. I’ll try to communicate with him and see his reaction. As for you and me, I don’t think we
should talk about it for the time being. There are a lot of unknown elements. Let’s take it one step at a
time.”
Rodney had no choice but to remain silent when he heard Amber’s words. The matter between him
and Amber could not be rushed. She had been hurt so badly that she was disheartened. It was not
something that he could understand with just a few words. The most important thing was to make Mel
no longer resist his approach.
Elliot drove to the hotel where Breanna lived. He was very happy to see her. “Elliot, why are you free to
come over now?”
“Breanna!” Elliot stared at her and said word by word, “You really can’t change your character!”
When Breanna saw that Elliot was so angry, she immediately understood that he knew that she had
gone to find Amber yesterday. Amber was indeed playing a trick on her face. She controlled her anger.
“What did I do?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Why did you tell him that Rodney is Mel’s father? Why did you do that?”
“I just accidentally spilled the beans…” Breanna defended herself.
“Well, you don’t have to explain. Do you still remember what I said to you?” Elliot sneered. “I said that
although we are engaged, you didn’t interfere with my life. If you can’t bear it, you can break off the
engagement. Now that you can’t bear it, let’s break off the engagement!”
“I won’t cancel the engagement. Elliot, you can’t be so heartless to me. I didn’t disturb your life. I just
accidentally spilled the beans.” Breanna wouldn’t give up. “It’s my fault this time. I won’t do this again.”
Elliot looked at Breanna and felt annoyed. “Breanna, I don’t love you. I don’t love you at all. You don’t
have to insist. Let’s stop here!”
“Elliot, I won’t give up on you. You said that you would marry me in three years. This is what you
promised me. You can’t break your promise!” Breanna knew that Elliot was a person who kept his
promises, so she deliberately used Elliot’s words to shut him up.
This was indeed what he said. Elliot now found that he was really stupid. He looked at Breanna and
sneered. “Since you don’t turn back, I’ll help you!” After saying this, he strode away without looking
back.
Looking at Elliot’s back, Breanna bit her lips tightly. “Amber, I’ve given way too much. Don’t blame me
for being so aggressive. Elliot, don’t want to get it. Don’t want to get it, either. Don’t even want to get it
from Rodney!”
She turned around and entered the room to call Celia. “Ms. Black, I’m Breanna. Let’s meet!”
Celia was very surprised to receive Breanna’s call. She had no contact with Breanna. Why did Breanna
want to see her? She was pregnant now, so it was better to be careful about everything. So she
refused. “I’m sorry, Ms. Hammond. I don’t have time to see you. Just tell me on the phone.”
“It’s not clear on the phone. Let’s talk about it when we meet.” Breanna insisted.
Although she could tell Celia about Amber’s pregnancy on the phone, her people who couldn’t see her
didn’t know how she would react. The most important thing was that she wanted to discuss the latter
with Celia. She wanted to make it impossible for Amber and Rodney to be together.
“I really don’t have time.” Celia still refused to meet her. Her mother said that she should be careful
during this period of time and not make any trouble. She naturally had to be careful.
Breanna chuckled. “Ms. Black, don’t be so wary. I’m telling you that I have something important to tell
you when I see you. I’m warning you that if you don’t come to see me, it will be a great loss for you,
and it may make you lose Rodney forever.”
This sentence made Celia a little uneasy. Was Breanna telling the truth or exaggerating? If she didn’t
go to see her, she would miss an important piece of news. Breanna felt strange when she saw Celia
hesitating. What was Celia afraid of?
