Rodney didn’t say anything. It didn’t matter whose child Mel was. What was important was that Amber

had promised Pierce, and she had finally promised Pierce! Her heart was incomparably painful.

“Let me tell you, Mel is your son!”

“Nonsense!” Rodney was stunned. He had already asked Deon to investigate Mel’s identity. Breanna

must be talking nonsense.

“I’m not talking nonsense. Mel is indeed your son.” Breanna’s voice was very clear. “I heard what

grandma and brother said. It can’t be wrong!”

The phone almost fell to the ground. After a long while, he found his voice. “How is that possible?”

Breanna sneered. Needless to say, she knew what Rodney looked like. He must be extremely

surprised!

“When you divorced, Amber was pregnant. She hated you so much that she didn’t tell you. This time,

Mel got sick and went back to South City for the sake of Mel’s health. She wanted to have another child

with you to save Mel with blood!” Breanna said it clearly, but the always smart man was stunned.

The phone fell to the ground and he sat there motionlessly. He was so smart that he couldn’t figure out

the logic of this matter.

“What’s wrong?” Celia looked at his expression and felt that something had happened. However,

Rodney ran out of the ward without saying anything.

Celia, who wanted to chase after him, had already disappeared. The bad feeling in her heart grew

stronger and stronger. Who was the person who had just called Rodney?

“Deon ordered the fastest flight to the United States. I want to go abroad immediately.” He went straight

to the underground parking lot and started the car and flew out like an arrow.

At the airport.

“Why did the president suddenly want to go to the United States?” Deon was a little confused.

“Send me the specific location of the Hammond family’s old house. You must receive it before I get off

the plane.” After that, he immediately went to the ticket entrance.

Deon shook his head. This matter must have something to do with Amber.

Early in the morning, Amber went to the hospital for an examination, accompanied by Pierce and Mel.

Mel was in good health, and so was Amber.

“Should we celebrate such a good thing?” Pierce said happily as he walked out of the hospital.

Mel was the first to lose her cool. “I ate delicious food.”

Amber smiled helplessly and felt a little distressed. He was so young, but he couldn’t eat anything. She

was the one who gave him this disease. He should have had a happy childhood.

“Okay, I’ll make an exception today.” Pierce found it hard to be so happy, so he put down the burden in

his heart and thought that they should be happy.

It was just that…

Amber looked out of the window. “Is the person far away from me also happy?”

After dinner, they went to the park. For the whole day, they were as happy as a family and gave up all

their troubles.

Back at the Hammond family’s old house, Mel shouted happily from a distance, “Great Grandma, we’re

back!”

The tall and straight body of the man in the room instantly stiffened, and he slowly turned to look at the

lively and wild child.

“His son!” He walked quickly to Mel and squatted down. His hand gently fell on Mel’s face. At this

moment, the air seemed to have frozen, and time seemed to have stopped. There was only his

heartbeat left in the world, and it was so fierce that it almost jumped out of his chest.

Rodney’s hand gently caressed Mel’s face. That delicate skin, that pale face, that black and shiny

eyes…

The corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally. This was his son, his son, and Amber’s son.

The old lady sighed. In the end, there was still something wrong.

“Ma’am…” Amber was supposed to greet her, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Rodney, who

was dressed in a casual manner. His face suddenly turned pale.

Pierce also noticed his arrival. He stepped forward, nodded, and put his arm around Amber’s shoulder.

“It’s okay. I’m here.”

His voice sounded, and she instantly felt at ease. She stood up straight and looked at him. “Why are

you here?”

She was so dry that she even felt uncomfortable when she said those words.

Rodney stood up and looked at her with monstrous anger in his eyes. “Of course you don’t want me to

come. I just want to ask you what you’ve been hiding from me all these years.”

Amber staggered two steps. Fortunately, Pierce held him in time. Pierce looked at Breanna, who was

gloating, intentionally or unintentionally.

“Mr. Barron, nice to meet you.” After pulling Amber behind him, Pierce stepped forward and stretched

out his hand like a gentleman.

Breanna finally stopped smiling. Only she knew that her brother was at his most peaceful time. She

really didn’t want to be affected.

The two men’s hands touched each other for a long time, but they did not let go. Both of them looked

calm, but the people present felt a little bit like a storm was coming.

“Well, since Mr. Barron is here, just sit down and talk!” After all, the old lady was a person who had

seen a big scene, so she was relatively calm. She then ordered the servant, “Bring tea!”

Pierce pulled Amber and Mel to sit down. Rodney also sat down. A servant came in with tea and

politely handed it to Rodney. “Sir, please have some tea!”

Rodney took the tea and put it on the tea table next to him. He kept staring at Mel. Mel’s facial features

were indeed very similar to Amber’s, but if you looked closely, you would find that she looked familiar.

Why was he so stupid at that time? How could he believe Amber’s nonsense? How could he believe

that Mel was the child of someone else?

Mel felt very uncomfortable under Rodney’s gaze. Why did he feel that Uncle Rodney seemed to have

changed into another person? He used to like Uncle Rodney, but when he saw that Uncle Rodney was

engaged to someone else, he didn’t like him anymore.

His mother had said that a person must keep his promise. Uncle Rodney had told him that he had to

take care of him and his mother. He also liked Uncle Rodney, but he did not keep his promise. He

hated people who did not keep their promises.

Looking at Mel snuggled up to Pierce and Amber, Rodney felt a surge of resentment in his heart. He

waved at Mel and said, “Mel, come here!”

Mel shook her head and leaned closer to Pierce. She looked at Rodney with a pair of black eyes and

asked, “Uncle Rodney what are you doing here?”

Rodney could not vent his anger on Mel. He tried his best to smile and said, “I’ll deal with some things

and visit Mel by the way.”

“Thank you, Uncle Rodney.” Mel was very polite. She grabbed Amber with one hand and Pierce with

the other. “My mom and Uncle Pierce are getting married. I’m going to have a father soon!”

Upon hearing this, Rodney’s face suddenly changed. He looked at Amber with red eyes. “Amber, let

me ask you, who is Mel’s father?”

Amber didn’t say anything. Rodney must have known something since he was able to ask her

righteously. However, Mel’s background had always been a secret. How did he know that?

Mel did not understand the undercurrents between adults. He answered in a childish voice, “My father

is dead!”

“He’s dead!” Rodney sneered. How much did Amber hate him for telling the child that he was dead?

“Amber, is Mel’s father really dead? Huh?”

Amber didn’t say anything but just nodded.

“Very good. I’ll do an appraisal with Mel tomorrow. Everything is determined by the appraisal!”

“Why? My child, why should I let you do the appraisal with him?” Amber retorted.

“Is there something wrong with your heart?” Rodney sneered. “What are you afraid of?”

“I’m not afraid of anything. My son is ill and can’t stand any torture!”

“Really? Then what about the baby in your belly? As far as I know, you are pregnant now. Do you dare

to say that the baby is not mine?” Rodney was aggressive. “Amber, things have come to this point. I

already know everything that should be known. It’s useless for you to hide it!”

“Mom, what do you mean by hiding it?”

“Well…” Amber didn’t know how to answer Mel’s question.

Rodney stared at her. “Amber, can you tell Mel with a clear conscience that who I am?”

Who on earth was in the wrong that led to today’s result?

Amber’s face turned pale. In the face of Rodney’s question, she had nothing to say. She even felt that it

was difficult to breathe.

“Mr. Barron, Mel is still ill. Do you think it’s appropriate to discuss this topic in front of him?” Pierce

reminded him.

Rodney took a look at Mel and forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart. The old lady got up and

said, “Mel, you and Old Madam will go upstairs to play for a while.”

Although Mel was young, she was very sensitive to the strange atmosphere, so she obediently followed

the old lady upstairs.

There were only Pierce, Amber, and Rodney left in the living room. Rodney felt a sharp pain in his heart

as he looked at the two people sitting together. In his life, he hated it the most when Pierce knew

Amber in front of him. What he hated most was when Amber had a place in his heart for Pierce. Now,

seeing the two of them sitting together like a perfect couple, he really didn’t like it.

Pierce patted Amber’s hand comfortingly. “Mr. Barron, since you already know that we won’t hide it

from you, Mel is indeed your child. However, now that Mel is ill, there’s no benefit in making trouble like

this. I hope that you can take a step back and wait for Mel to recover before we talk about this matter.”

“I can’t say no about this, but my son is sick. As a father, I can’t just sit back and watch. I am here to

declare my position. I will hire the best doctor for Mel. I will gather all the financial resources of the

Barron Enterprises to treat my son.”

“Mel’s illness has been well controlled. Now we’ll wait for Amber to give birth to the baby and treat it

with blood and water. So I hope you can think of something for him and let him continue to stay here for

treatment.”

“There’s no problem with that! I’ll stay and keep him company.” Rodney was very straightforward.

“Can you leave your company alone?” Amber asked.

“Compared with my son, the company is nothing.”

“I mean, you’d better go back to South City. I’ll report Mel’s illness to you at any time…”

“No!” Rodney interrupted Pierce. “I must stay by my son’s side and take care of him! I can’t change this

decision!”

“Rodney, you really don’t have to do this. Staying here won’t help anything. Mel has already accepted

me as her father. Staying here will only make things more complicated.”

“Mr. Hammond, are you afraid that I will affect you? Don’t worry, I won’t affect you. You two love each

other so far, and I can’t break you up.” Rodney’s tone was sarcastic. “But let me be frank with you. Mel

is my child, and the baby in Amber’s belly is also my child. I, Rodney, will never let my child call another

man’s father!”
