Chasing My Rejected Wife by J.Liu

“The doctor said that it’s just a fever, and she’ll be fine after being put on a drip.” Channing sighed and

glanced at his well-behaved daughter. “Celia, I think you should get over Rodney.”

“Dad, what do you mean?” Celia’s face suddenly turned pale.

“What happened?” Shannon was also shocked by Channing’s random utterance.

“I saw Rodney in Amber’s ward.” Channing hesitated for a moment and had to tell the truth.

“Had he found out about the relationship between you and Amber?” Shannon’s heart sank. If Rodney

discovered the relationship between Channing and Amber at this critical moment, Celia could forget

about getting engaged to him.

“No. I was just thinking that if Rodney stays by Amber’s side when she’s not well, this proves that he

has always had feelings for her. We are all very clear about the issue between Celia and Rodney. If it

weren’t for the fact that Amber couldn’t give birth at that time, such a thing wouldn’t have happened.

Now that Amber is back, and Rodney is still in love with her, Celia, it’s better for you to let go.”

“Dad!” Tears rolled down Celia’s cheeks, she was looking sad and pitiful.

“I know you like Rodney, but his heart is not with you. He only feels guilty about you. You won’t be

happy.” Channing tried to persuade her. “It was my fault back then. I shouldn’t have sacrificed you for

the sake of Amber.”

“Mr. Black, have you forgotten why Amber was divorced at that time? Even if Celia could let go and

give her blessings to Amber and Rodney, Amber couldn’t give birth, and Rachel would still be against it,

right? The Barron family only has a single descendant for a few generations, so it’s impossible that they

don’t want children.”

Shannon maintained her composure. Back then, it all happened due to her plot. If she hadn’t kept

mentioning Amber being bullied by Rachel in front of Channing, and if she hadn’t said that she was

willing to sacrifice Celia for the sake of Amber’s happiness and the harmony of her family, Channing

wouldn’t have easily agreed.

Channing became silent. It was indeed a big problem for Amber to not be able to have children. He

was clear about what kind of person Rachel was.

Amber couldn’t give birth, so she would still have to suffer. During his hesitation, Celia calmed down

and said, with tears streaming down her face, “Dad, the whole South City knows about me and

Rodney. If you ask me to quit at this time, aren’t you forcing me to die? How could I live with such

embarrassment?”

“Nonsense! What’s all this about death?” Shannon shouted at Celia in a stern voice. Celia understood

her mother’s hint and knelt on the ground.

“Dad, if no one knew about Rodney and me, I would definitely let go, but now everyone knows about it.

If you want me to give up, I have no other choice but to die!”

Channing looked at his tearful daughter and sighed. “I was just suggesting it. Why are you so

emotional?”

Shannon helped Celia up and said, “Celia, your father was just suggesting it. He’s only feeling sorry for

your sister, this is what the both of us owed her. But you can’t threaten your father with death. You are

also his child. How could he bear to let you die?”

Channing let out a heavy sigh when he heard that. Both Amber and Celia are his daughters. If he

hadn’t been so foolish to agree to let Celia give birth to a child for Amber, things wouldn’t have become

like this.

Thinking about the sufferings Celia went through, he also felt very bad in his heart. So he got up and

went into the study room. Shannon also helped Celia upstairs. Shannon closed the door and let go of

Celia. She sat down on the bed and gasped. “I’m so mad!”

Celia also wiped the tears from her face and said fiercely, “Dad is so biassed!”

“Biassed? Let him be biassed for the time being. I’ll see how biassed he can still be when the matter

blows up.” Shannon looked ferocious.

“Mum, what exactly did you do?”

“What can I do? Surely it’s something that’ll ruin that little b*tch’s reputation. We’ll spread it right away

when we get the item. By that time, everyone in the South City will know that she’s a sl*t. I’ll see how

she survives.” Shannon’s face was full of resentment.

Celia did not expect that her mother was planning this. Her mother was indeed not an ordinary person,

not leaving Amber a way out once she does something. Amber would definitely be doomed.

However, when she thought of what Channing had said earlier, about Rodney staying by Amber’s side,

Celia’s heart was extremely uncomfortable. “Mum, Rodney is at the hospital right now.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll make him leave right away!” Shannon sneered and picked up the phone to call Rachel.

When Rachel heard that Rodney was accompanying Amber at the hospital, she was furious. Her son

was a typical fool who had been blinded by love. That woman had attacked them like that, but he was

still eager to get close to her. So she immediately ordered the driver to drive to the hospital.

Since her son insisted on being stubborn, she had to be the bad guy again. Rachel pushed open the

door of the ward angrily, which startled Ashton and Noemi in the ward. Rachel glanced around the ward

and did not see her son, so she naturally asked, “Where is Rodney?”

Noemi saw that it was Rachel. She sneered and said, “Madam, are you in the wrong ward?”

Rachel ignored Noemi and went straight to the bedside. She looked at Amber and said, “Amber Stone,

everyone knows how to feel shame. If I’m the evil mother-in-law, and Rodney is a scumbag, why are

you still pestering Rodney?”

Amber was about to speak, but Noemi spoke before she could. “Mrs. Barron, perhaps you have

thought too highly of yourself. Amber is not one who easily forgets her sufferings. She is not interested

in a scumbag and an evil mother-in-law.”

Rachel stared at Noemi fiercely. “Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?”

“If I don’t have the right to speak, then you have no right to speak either. Such a mannerless being,

running into someone else’s ward and making a scene. Do you think this hospital is run by your

family?” Noemi was furious and spoke mercilessly.

Amber continued from what Noemi said, “Mrs. Barron, this is my ward. Please leave, or I’ll call the

security guards!”

Rachel felt completely embarrassed. She glared at Amber and said, “Amber Stone, do you think you’re

reasonable? I didn’t dislike you because you couldn’t give birth to a child when you got married into our

family. I’ve been seeking remedies for you. It’s you who can’t bear the loneliness and cheated on

Rodney. Even if you cheated, Rodney could bear it. But you’re so vicious that you actually pushed

Celia into a miscarriage. Let me tell you, the Barron family has done you right. If it was someone else,

you would have been in jail just because you pushed Celia and caused her miscarriage!”

Amber was so angry that she was trembling. What the hell was going on? It was obviously Rodney who

had cheated on her, but now Rachel was twisting the truth and claiming Amber was the one who had

an affair. Rachel was really good at twisting the truth. Ashton, who was standing aside, became furious.

“What sh*t are you talking about? I’ll whack your sh*tty mouth!”

“I dare you to touch me!” Rachel did not take Ashton seriously. “Believe it or not, I only have to make

one call and can get you in jail!”

“So it’s reasonable to cheat and get a mistress? Do you really think that the police station is run by your

family? Do you want me to go outside and tell everyone about the disgusting things your family has

done?” Noemi was so mad.

Amber already knew what kind of person Rachel was. She couldn’t let Noemi stand up for her, so she

stopped Noemi. “Mrs. Barron, I also want to tell you the truth. You and your son are the strangest

people I’ve ever met. I was too blind at that time to have anything to do with your son. Now I know I’m

wrong. I beg the both of you to stay away from me, okay? As long as you and your son can stay away

from me, I’ll make sure to pray for the both of you.”

“Did you hear that? Your son is the one who’s pestering Amber. We have driven him out countless

times. Please take your son away. The air is going to be polluted if he stays here!” Noemi’s words were

vicious.

“You….” Rachel’s face turned red.

“Mrs. Barron, please leave!” Ashton’s face was darkened with anger.

Looking at the three pairs of unfriendly eyes in the ward, Rachel left the ward with a flushed face. When

she walked out of the ward, she saw Rodney looking at her expressionlessly. “Rodney!”

Rodney turned around and asked, in a cold voice, “Why are you here?”

“How can I not come? Look at what you’ve become now!” Rachel had lost face. In the past, although

Amber was rude, she only talked back without saying anything vicious, but Noemi was different.

Rachel had learned of Noemi’s temper. “What’s so good about that woman? She’s vicious, unfilial, and

can’t bear children. Why are you still entangling yourself with her? You don’t know how she scolded me

just now. I’ve lost all my face.”

As Rachel spoke, she began to wipe away her tears. Rodney frowned, and impatience flashed across

his eyes. “Let me send you back home!”

On the way back, Rachel did not forget to describe how vicious Amber and Noemi were. Rodney had

kept quiet all the time, but he could not bear it anymore. “Mum, you can stop pretending. I’ve heard all

that you’ve said just now.”

Rachel’s face reddened. “What did you hear?”

“Mum, I’m your son. Don’t you feel tired of pretending in front of me?”

“What did I pretend? I just want her to stay away from you. Is that wrong?” Rachel was unreasonable.

“You’re not wrong. I was wrong. I was the one who shamelessly approached Amber. Do you

understand?”

“Why did you look for her?”

“Why?” Rodney sneered. “Mum, don’t tell me you really don’t know?”

Rachel blushed and said, “Son, it’s all in the past. We have to look ahead. Celia is such a good girl,

and she has done so much for you. You can’t let her down.”

“I be sorry for her? Wasn’t all this your plan?” Rodney laughed at himself. “Mum, it’s you who should be

sorry for Celia, not me. If it weren’t for you back then, would things have turned out like this?”

“Didn’t I do it for your own good? You’re so obsessed with that she-devil and refused to divorce her.

The Barron family bloodline can’t end at you. If you don’t have a child, how can I go down to face your

father?” Rachel justified herself, “Besides, what’s so good about that she-devil? It’s still fine if she can’t

have a baby, but she even cheated on you. I’m furious whenever I think of it.”

“Can’t you stop talking about this?” The word ‘cheated’ triggered Rodney, and he suddenly raised his

voice.

“If I hadn’t reminded you, you would have forgotten about the pain. I simply don’t understand what’s so

good about that she-devil. Compared with Celia, she is simply nothing.”

Rachel tried her best to belittle Amber. “She’s just a poor girl without any good upbringing. Celia is

different. She has a good family background and a kind heart. If your mother hadn’t begged her, would

she have agreed to be a surrogate mother? Let me tell you, I’m your mother and you’re my son. A son

is responsible for his mother’s debts. You have to be good to her!”

” A son responsible for his mother’s debts?” Rodney suddenly sneered. “Since it’s to repay a debt, why

don’t we give the whole Barron Enterprises to Celia?”

“What nonsense are you spouting?” Rachel was shocked by her son’s indifferent tone.

“Mum, I want to ask you a question. In your heart, which is more important? The company, your ego,

descendants, or my happiness?”

“Of course, your happiness is most important.”

“Since my happiness is important, can you not force me? I am a human, not a puppet. Can you let me

choose my life according to my will?”

“As long as you don’t have anything to do with Amber, I can stop interfering with your life.” Rachel

made concessions.

“But apart from her, I have no interest in any other woman.” Rodney’s voice was cold. “Unless

someone is foolish enough to be willing to be a grass widow forever!”
