Rodney watched as Pierce left and muttered in a frustrated voice, âPierce, if it werenât for you working so hard to take care of my wife and children, I wouldnât have beaten you to death!â
âMr. Barron, youâre so imposing!â Amber sneered. When he turned his head and saw Amberâs red face, he forced a smile.
âAmber, is Mel asleep?â
âYou know whatâs good for you!â Amber glared at him. âRodney, Iâm warning you. Pierce and I wonât make any changes because of you. Donât make the wrong decision!â
Rodneyâs face turned pale again. Amber ignored him and went straight into the kitchen. She had to cook some lean meat porridge for Mel. It would be delicious when Mel woke up.
Rodney stood in the living room for a while, and then followed him cheekily. âAmber, do you need my help?â
âNo need!â Amber refused.
âLet me cut the meat. Iâve mastered my bladesmanship very well!â Seeing that Amber was about to cut the meat, he reached out for the knife.
âMr. Barron is really a good man!â Amber sneered. Why didnât she see him get over it before?
Rodney ignored the sarcasm in her tone. He took the knife and was ready to cut the meat. Looking at his knife skills, which could not be regarded as skillful at all, Amber reached out and pushed him away. âGet out. Donât get in the way!â
Rodney staggered when he was pushed by her. The knife in his hand cut his finger and blood gushed out. Amber ignored him and said, âThereâs a stopped bleeding in the living room. Go and bandage it yourself!â
Rodney didnât move. His expression was desolate and the blood on his fingers dripped onto the ground drop by drop. His gaze was fixed on Amber. Amber didnât even look at him as he continued to prepare the ingredients. She had already decided that she couldnât treat him nicely when dealing with him. He had such a strong self-esteem that she didnât believe that he could persevere.
When a servant heard the noise and walked over, she saw that Rodneyâs finger was bleeding and he was standing still in the kitchen. She screamed, âAh, itâs bleeding. Go and bandage it!â
As he spoke, he quickly went to look for stopers and gauze. Amber didnât even look at Rodney as he continued to do his own things. The servants found a stopers and gauze to help him bandage his wounds. He didnât move his eyes as he looked at Amber. He had always thought that Amberâs heart was the softest in the world. Only now did he realize that she was more vicious than anyone else.
But all of this was owed to her by him. He was the culprit. No matter what, he had to stick to it. If he insisted, he would win!
After the bandage was bandaged, Rodney returned to the kitchen. This time, he didnât come in. Instead, he stood at the door and looked at Amber. Amber was a little scared by his stare. âWhen did this Mr. Barron become like this?â
While she was feeling uneasy, Rodneyâs phone rang. He picked it up and Deonâs voice came over. âMr. Barron, except for the frequent entry and exit of the hospital in the past few days, there is nothing unusual about Celia!â
âDid you find out what she was doing in the hospital?â
âIâm listening. Iâm doing some clinical examinations.â
âHave a see-through examination?â Rodney was stunned. âKeep an eye on it. Let me know when you find some important news!â
Deon agreed and told Rodney, âKelsey is coming to America soon. Tomorrowâs flight.â
âGot it!â Rodney replied.
South City.
Kelsey packed up her luggage and looked at Itzel, who came to see her off. She did not know how long it would take for her to come back from overseas this time. âMom, I canât bear to part with you!â
âMy good child, I donât want to part with you!â Itzelâs face was also full of reluctance. The person in front of her was a big problem. She would never be soft-hearted when dealing with trouble, but she had to put on a good show anyway. âMom will take time to visit you. Even if I donât have time to visit you often, now the Internet is so developed, we can often chat on the Internet and meet by video.â
Itzelâs comfort smoothed out Kelseyâs reluctance. The two of them went out to the airport together. Itzel drove the car. Along the way, she had been telling Kelsey to pay attention to things abroad. She acted like a kind mother and sent Kelsey to the airport.
Itzel accompanied her to go through the boarding procedures and reluctantly sent Kelsey to the parking lot.
After watching Kelseyâs figure disappear, the reluctance on her face finally faded away. She quickly walked out of the airport.
After getting into the car, she picked up the phone and dialed the number. âSheâs coming soon. Get ready! Remember to be neat and tidy!â
After more than ten hours, the plane arrived in the United States. Kelsey walked out of the airport. A native looked at the photo in his hand and came over. âIs it Ms. Tian?â
âWho are you?â Kelsey was puzzled.
âIâm your mother, Itzelâs friend, Tony. She asked me to pick her up!â The manâs face was full of smiles. He said Itzelâs name very accurately. Kelsey naturally believed him and followed the man out of the airport.
Tony took the luggage from her hand and walked out of the airport while talking. Soon, Tony drove Kelsey to a private villa.
There was a garden swimming pool in the villa, which looked very magnificent and luxurious. Kelsey had some feelings in her heart. She had to say that Itzel was really good to her. Everything was well arranged, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation.
Tony pointed to the room on the left upstairs and told Kelsey, âThis is your room. Go in and take a shower and rest. Iâll ask the servants to prepare dinner.â
Kelsey thanked him and entered the room. She did not take a shower, but picked up the phone and was about to call Itzel. Only then did she realize that her phone was out of power. She searched for a while in the suitcase, but did not find any charger.
Kelsey patted her head in annoyance. She was too careless.
She opened the door and was about to borrow a charger from Tony. The villa was brightly lit and she couldnât see anyone on the second floor. Kelsey didnât know where Tony was, so she had to look for him in the next room. Finally, she heard a voice coming from a room. She walked over.
The door was closed and Tony was making a phone call inside. âHeâs very decent. Ninth Brother, very upright. Heâs even more beautiful than Itzel back then.â
âIâm not lying to you. Itâs true. When I saw you for the first time, I wanted to hide my feelings. Besides, Iâm worried about you. I think youâve been tired of those foreign women during this period of time. Iâll keep them for you to have a taste of. With such a little beauty accompanying you, you wonât be lonely.â
âYes, yes! Iâll sell her to a brothel when Iâm tired of it. Anyway, Itzel doesnât know if we did it according to her plan. This is a good thing for us. We can not only take Itzelâs money, but also pick up a beautiful woman for free...â
âYouâre here? Okay! Okay! Come here and make your decision! Iâm hanging up!â
Kelsey was not a fool. She could tell from their conversation that something was wrong. Tony hung up the phone and turned around. When he saw Kelsey standing at the door, his face stiffened and his fake smile disappeared.
âWho the hell are you?â
âA man!â He came over with a sinister smile. âLittle beauty, since you heard it, I wonât hide it from you. Iâm not your motherâs friend. Iâm just a man who takes your life with money. Look at you, youâre beautiful. I have a crush on you and decided to spare your life. You have to thank me.â
Kelseyâs legs were trembling. She was completely stunned. âWhy?â
âHow would I know?â Tony sneered. âBrother Nine will be here soon. Youâd better behave yourself. If heâs happy, you can enjoy yourself for a few more days, or...â
It was terrible! Before he could finish his words, Kelsey turned around and ran, followed by Tony. Kelsey stumbled and was quickly caught by Tony. âShame on you!â He slapped Kelsey in the face.
Kelsey grimaced in pain. She struggled desperately and shouted for help. Tony reached out to cover her mouth and dragged her upstairs. Kelsey knew that she was in deep trouble, so she didnât care. She reached out her hand and grabbed Tonyâs face.
Then, she kicked him in the face. It was Tonyâs life.
Tony let go of her in pain, and Kelsey took the opportunity to rush out! When she ran out of the villa, a car drove into the villa.
Kelsey rushed out of the villa and ran wildly on the street. The street Club Cobalt was very cold, and no one could be seen. She was very scared, very scared, and desperate. She just wanted to escape from this demon cave as soon as possible.
At the same time, Blake drove the car to the villa. He stopped the car and entered the villa in a hurry. He saw Tony lying on the ground groaning. Blakeâs heart sank. âWhere is he?â
âHe ran away! He just ran out. Brother Nine, chase him quickly!â
Blake didnât wait for Tony to finish his words and turn around to leave. He quickly started the car and chased after them. There was no one near the place where they lived, and it was cold and lonely Club Cobalt. Kelsey ran as she shouted for help, but no one saw her when she shouted.
The huge fear made Kelsey keep running forward. Blake drove out and chased for a distance, but she didnât find anyone.
Thinking that Kelsey couldnât run so fast, he immediately turned around and chased in the opposite direction. Soon he found Kelsey.
Kelsey ran in a panic, and suddenly a bright light covered her. She turned around in surprise. Behind her, not far from her, a car was speeding up to her. In the dazzling light, she could clearly see the driverâa man with a grim smile and a scar on his face, with a grim smile on his face.
The sudden situation made Kelsey stop thinking. She did not dodge, nor did she have time to dodge. She just watched the car coming at her. She felt that her body flew up and then fell heavily on the ground. The severe pain soon made her lose consciousness and fall into endless darkness.
Blake got out of the car and reached out to feel Kelseyâs breath. Feeling the slightest breath, he quickly took out his mobile phone and took a picture of Kelsey on the ground. Then he turned around, got in the car, and started the car and left.
A few minutes later, Itzelâs cell phone received a text message. She opened it and saw the badly mutilated body on the screen.
She was shocked and immediately deleted the photo. She put her hands together and prayed silently, âI canât do it on my own.
You can go all the way!â
She prayed silently for a while, and most of the fear and uneasiness in her heart disappeared. So she turned on the computer, and soon a large sum of money was sent to an account, and everything happened quietly.
