Originally, Pierce wanted to accompany Amber back to the country. However, after the incident at the factory last time, a worker made trouble and brought him to court. Now as a criminal, he couldnât be arrested. Pierce was anxious and had to make a phone call to Elliot.
When Elliot heard Pierce say that Rachel brought Mel back, he was so angry that he jumped up. âWhatâs wrong with you? Didnât you promise me that you would protect Amber and Mel well? How could you let that crazy woman Rachel take Mel away?â
âIt was indeed my negligence. I didnât expect Rodneyâs mother to come over. Iâm really worried about Amberâs return to our country alone, and Melâs health is more important. If youâre convenient, help Amber. Iâll go there as soon as I handle the companyâs affairs.â Pierce blamed himself. The culprit of this matter was his sister, Breanna. If she hadnât told Rodney about Melâs background, Rachel wouldnât have gone to the United States to rob Mel. Melâs health was so poor now. If something bad happened to her because of this matter, Amber would have been in great pain, and he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
âAll right, I know. I will take care of Amber and help her get Mel back. The Barron family is so unreasonable. I will make them happy this time.â
Elliot also knew that he couldnât blame Pierce for this, so he could only blame Breanna. He hated his fiancee more and secretly regretted that he was so impulsive to make a three-year promise with her. He didnât know that the reason why Mel was brought back to our country by Rachel was because of Breanna. Otherwise, she would be so angry that she would spit blood.
Pierce hung up the phone after saying a few more words of thanks. After thinking for a while, he made a phone call to Noemi, asking her to pick up Amber at the airport when she was free, and then accompany her to find Mel.
After everything was arranged properly, Pierce returned home. The old lady was anxiously waiting at home. Seeing Pierce come back, she immediately greeted him. âHow is it? I heard from Breanna that Rachel took Mel away. Is it true?â
âAlmost. Deon said that she took two people and a child with her. The child was covered with clothes. He didnât see her face clearly. It must be Mel. The two people were the doctors she hired.â
âThis Rachel is really a troublesome person. How can she be so unreasonable?â The old lady sighed. âMel is her grandson anyway. Why is she so cruel?â
âYeah, itâs so hateful!â Pierce sighed. âI was going to go with you, but I havenât dealt with what happened in the factory last time, so I have to ask Elliot for help. When the matter here is settled, Iâll go there in a hurry.â
âWell, thatâs good. Otherwise, Iâm really worried that Amber wonât be able to deal with Rachel and her son alone.â
The grandfather and granddaughter were talking about Amber and Mel. No one expected that Rachelâs accomplice, Breanna, was standing on the second floor and listening to their conversation.
Yesterday, Breanna was very happy to see Rodney and Amber leave the Hammond family together. This time, she finally let out a sigh of relief and let Amber suffer a lot. She was very clear about Melâs position in Amberâs heart. Now that Rachel had taken Mel away, Amber was bound to go back to fight Rachel to the death and take Mel back.
However, the Barron family was rich and powerful. Amber would not be able to defeat them unless she went to Channing for help. Then, there would be a good show. Anyway, she had already promised Rachel that she could learn about the situation at any time.
Now, when she heard that Pierce had called Elliot and asked him to help Amber, Breanna was so angry that she almost couldnât help rushing downstairs to lose her temper at Pierce.
Pierce clearly knew that she loved Elliot deeply, but he did not consider her feelings. He kept asking Elliot to take care of Amber.
In the past, she had not been engaged to Elliot, but now she was Elliotâs fiancee. It was too much for Pierce to ask Elliot to get close to Amber.
In addition, the show that she had worked so hard to design was only halfway through. She couldnât let Elliot ruin it again. She had to book a flight back to the country as soon as possible. She had to tie Elliot down so that he couldnât get in touch with Amber.
Having made up her mind, she turned around and went back to her room.
...
Hanging up the phone, Elliot looked at his watch, got up, picked up his coat, and walked out of the office. Just now, Pierce said that Amber and Rodney had taken a plane back to our country. At most, there was an hour before the plane arrived. He was going to rush to the airport to pick Amber up. He was really worried that Amber and Rodney would be together. If Rodney treated her like before, it would be terrible.
In addition, Amber would definitely go to find Mel as soon as he came back. Rachel, that crazy woman, was so unreasonable. If he didnât accompany her, Amber would definitely suffer losses.
Although Pierce had just told him that Rodney was also very angry about Rachel taking Mel away, and he had promised Amber that he would help her get Mel back, he did not believe it.
He knew full well that Rodney had never given up on Amber. Now that Rachel had brought Mel back to the Barron family, who knew if Rodney would take the opportunity to threaten Amber with Mel to reunite with him.
Thinking of Amberâs current situation, Elliot was anxious. He immediately asked Walter to send someone to the major hospitals in South City to find out if Rachel had sent Mel to the hospital. Then he didnât ask Walter to drive for him. He jumped into the car and drove quickly to the airport.
When they arrived at the airport, Elliot locked the car and walked to the hall. As soon as he reached the door, he heard someone calling him. He quickly turned his head and found that it was Noemi who was walking toward him.
âMr. Thomson, are you here to pick up Amber as well?â
Elliot said, âThatâs right. Are you here to pick up Amber as well?â
Noemi nodded and said, âJust now, Pierce called me and told me that Amber will be arriving in South City soon. He asked me to pick you up when I had time and accompany her to pick up Mel in the Barron family. He also told you about it and asked you for help if we needed anything. When I saw you coming here, I naturally guessed that you were here to pick up Amber.â
âWell, letâs go!â Elliot secretly praised Pierce. This guy was really careful. He knew that Amber would definitely need his friends and relatives to help her at this time. Noemi was a shrew, so it was appropriate for her to deal with that crazy woman, Rachel.
Besides, he was engaged to Breanna now. Pierce might not want him to accompany Amber alone. It would be more convenient for him to have Noemi by his side.
They arrived at the hall. Seeing that it was still early, they found a place to sit down and waited.
Noemi looked at Elliotâs slightly furrowed brows and sighed with emotion in her heart. How nervous was this man to Amber? Now that Amber was about to marry Pierce and he was already engaged, he still put Amber in his heart. As long as something happened to Amber, he would come to help him as soon as possible. She didnât know when she would meet such an excellent and infatuated man like him.
Seemingly aware of Noemiâs strange look, Elliot tilted his head to look at her and asked, âWhatâs wrong with you?â
Noemi blushed and hurriedly lowered her head. âNo... nothing. Iâm thinking about Amber. I donât know if she will immediately go to the Barron family to have a happy life.â
âThat goes without saying. How can she bear it? She will definitely go and find Mel right away.â Elliot was furious when he mentioned this. His deep eyes were burning with flames.
Noemi sighed and said, âAmber is really pitiful. She has suffered so much over the years. Now she is about to marry Pierce and can live a stable life. However, the mother and son of the Barron family are unwilling to let go of her and Mel. Now that Mel has been taken away by Rachel, Amber doesnât know how anxious he is!â
âDonât worry. As long as Iâm here, Iâll definitely take Mel back.â
âIâm afraid that Rachel will hide Mel so that we canât find her.â
Elliot said calmly, âI canât find it. If Iâm right, Mel should be in the hospital now.â
Noemiâs eyes lit up. âYes, Iâm so confused. Why didnât I think of that? Just now, Pierce told me that Mel hated Rachel very much.
She didnât want to come back with her at all. Rachel threw him to the ground and scared him.
âNow that Rachel has insisted on bringing him back, he must be very scared. How can his body withstand the shock again and again? It will inevitably worsen his condition. Rachel will send him to the hospital. If we had known this, we would have split up and gone to the hospital alone to find Mel. If we came to pick up Amber alone, we would have saved time.â
Elliot glanced at her. How could this girl be confused? She was obviously very smart. âIâve already sent someone to look for her.
Once thereâs news, theyâll inform me.â
Noemi couldnât help laughing. She was really stupid. How could she forget who Elliot was? With his ability, he could find Mel in an unknown alley, not to mention a hospital in South City.
At this time, Elliotâs cell phone rang, and Noemi was delighted. âDid your subordinate find Mel?â
Elliot took out his mobile phone and took a look. There was a smile on his face. It was Walter who called him. He must have found Mel.
He pressed the answer button and asked, âWhat do you think? Is there any news about the child?â
Walter said, âYes, Mr. Thomson, we have found Mel. He is now living in the blood department of The First Hospital in South City.
The doctor said that his current situation is relatively stable. You donât have to worry.â
âOkay, I got it.â
Hanging up the phone, Elliot told Noemi that he had found Mel. Noemi was relieved. She was worried that Rachel would hide Mel so that Amber could not find her. Now, she could go straight to the hospital after receiving Amber.
The plane finally landed at the airport. Amber quickly unfastened his seat belt and stood up to walk out.
Rodney sat near the aisle, his long legs blocking Amberâs path. She looked coldly at his long legs and squeezed out two words.
âExcuse me.â
Rodney raised his head and looked at her pale face. His heart ached. For more than ten hours on the plane, this was the only sentence she had said to him. During this period of time, no matter what he said to her, she would ignore him.
When she learned that Rachel had taken Mel away, she was like a mad mother lion. She grabbed his clothes and said fiercely that if anything happened to Mel, she would fight with him to the death.
He apologized to her countless times and promised that he would help her get Mel back and immediately accompany her back to the country, but she still didnât give him a good look.
In the past ten hours, she had been lying on the chair and looking out of the window blankly. She had not eaten anything except a glass of juice.
Looking at her haggard face, he felt extremely distressed. He persuaded her to eat and then persuaded her to close her eyes to have a good rest. She ignored him as if he didnât exist.
He had never seen her like this. He knew that she hated him. She hated him for coming to the United States and asking for Mel.
She hated him even more for telling Rachel about Melâs family background, which resulted in Mel being taken away.
At that moment, he began to regret it. He shouldnât have come to the United States so impulsively to force her. He shouldnât have told Rachel about Melâs background. Otherwise, he wouldnât have ended up in this situation.
He had already thought about it. After returning to South City, he would immediately help her get Mel back and never let Mel leave her again.
Before getting on the plane, he had already called his subordinates in the company and told them that Rachel had taken Mel back to South City and asked him to keep an eye on Rachel and see where she would take Mel.
He believed that with their ability to handle things, they must have sent Melâs message to his mobile phone at this time. As long as he got off the plane and turned on the phone, he could receive the message.
He withdrew his leg and let Amber go over. He stood up and followed her silently to the cabin door.
