Shannon could think of a way to shut Zoe up so that she couldnât walk around outside. She was still a little worried about dealing with Noemi, but dealing with Zoe didnât need so much trouble. She just called Malone and asked him to deal with it.
Malone immediately asked someone to break Zoeâs leg. After Zoe was sent to the hospital, Rodney immediately knew that although Zoeâs character was not good, she would not attract others to kill her. Rodney naturally thought of Celia and her daughter. It seemed that they were not fighting alone. They must have helpers. For now, he had to find her helpers.
Rodney ordered Deon to investigate this matter carefully. He had to find out who was the accomplice of Shannon and her daughter.
Shannon grew up in the catâs alley and fought fiercely with the gangsters in the catâs alley. It was very likely that this group of fierce people came from the catâs alley.
Deon was investigating those gangsters who had a good relationship with Shannon in the Parkview Street. This investigation unexpectedly brought him unexpected gains. He even found Casen, who had tried to kill Amber on TV when he was in the Parkview Street.
Casen had committed a lot of crimes, but no one would be watched by the police like this. He had been hiding outside for a long time and had no peace like a stray dog. Blake, who had asked him to do this, had already gone abroad. He had spent almost all his money. Thinking that the most dangerous place was the safest place, he sneaked back to the catâs alley and planned to hide for a while before thinking of a way.
But he didnât expect that he would be so unlucky to be discovered by Deon. Although Casen was dressed in sloppy clothes and had disheveled hair and dirty face, Deon still recognized him. It was not a waste of effort. Deon was overjoyed and immediately got someone to control Casen.
Deon immediately brought Casen to Rodney. Of course, Rodney was not polite to Casen. He got someone to teach him a lesson and asked him why he was doing this to Amber.
Casen only knew that someone wanted him to deal with Amber, but she didnât know who the person behind him was. She couldnât stand the beating and only confessed to Blake.
Blake had already moved abroad, so it was not easy to find him. Rodney asked someone to send Casen to the police station and asked the police to sue for arrest of Blake.
Although Casen did not know the real mastermind behind the scenes, Rodney had already guessed that the mastermind behind the scenes must be Shannon. The hatred in his heart was that Shannon and her daughter were too hateful. He could not let them go easily. He must make them pay for what they did.
Rachel asked Itzel to pay attention to the rumors about Celia. She had been waiting for several days without Itzelâs reply, and then came to visit Mrs. Moore.
Mrs. Moore told her that she had recently seen Rodney have a good relationship with a woman Sherry and asked her about the origin of the woman Sherry.
Rachel didnât know anything about her son. She wondered if her son had found another woman after he had enlightened his Apertures. But this possibility was very small.
Not to mention his sonâs deep love for Amber, now that Mel was ill, how could his son be in the mood to find a woman?
Mrs. Moore then told Rachel that Sherry and Celiaâs former friend Zoe had been fighting fiercely recently. She meant to tell Rachel that the rumors about Celia might have been released by Sherry.
Mrs. Moore came to tell Rachel these things with her own purpose. Her daughter also had some thoughts about Rodney.
However, Celia had always been in front of her, so she had never had a chance. Now that she heard about Celiaâs scandal, she naturally would spare no effort to tell Rachel to pave the way for her daughter.
However, Sherry, who had suddenly appeared recently, was very close to Rodney, which made her daughter, who had thought that there was hope, very unhappy. So, she told her about this matter and also said that Celiaâs former friend was very close to Sherry.
Her daughter suspected that it was Sherry who bribed Zoe to let her out.
When Mrs. Moore heard this, she was overjoyed. Rachel hated people who made trouble. It was better for her to tell Rachel the news so that Rachel could refuse Sherryâs idea.
Rachel was very angry when she heard that. Her intuition told her that in order to make her hate Celia, her son deliberately made Celia sick so that she could reconcile with Amber. In the evening, when Rodney came back, Rachel went to the study to question him.
Rodney didnât want to tell Rachel these things at first, but when he saw that his mother was stubborn, he became angry. So he threw the recording Zoe said to Celia to Rachel.
Rodney sneered again and told her that because Zoe told the truth, someone was resentful and broke her leg. He also told Rachel that Shannon was fighting with some gangsters in Parkview Street before she married Channing. She was not a good person.
Rachel was shocked when she heard the recording. She knew very well that someone was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. If Zoe was lying, Shannon and her daughter could have picked up the law weapons to protect themselves. They didnât need to do anything behind the scenes.
It seemed that what Zoe said was definitely true. Shannon and her daughter were not only vicious, but also black and white. At this point, Rachel finally hated Celia to the extreme.
There was no reason to like a person, but it was the same to hate a person. Rachel now hated Celia very much, but she was full of guilt for Amber. Thinking of her past with Amber, she felt sorry in her heart, so she decided to talk to Amber.
Amber was very surprised by Rachelâs visit. She didnât want Rachel to enter the house, but when she saw her sitting in a wheelchair, she thought that her leg was injured, so she couldnât do anything. So she let Rachel enter Elliotâs villa.
Upon seeing Rachel, Mel was so scared that she hid in Ashtonâs arms. âGrandpa, the bad mother-in-law is here. Hurry up and drive her away!â
Rachelâs heart ached even more when she saw how frightened her grandson was. Amber motioned for Ashton to bring Mel into the room and poured Rachel a cup of tea. âI wonder why Mrs. Barron has come to see me?â
âAmber, I... Iâm here to apologize to you today!â Rachel had always been strong, so she had never been so humble to others.
Her apology was full of words.
Amber was also shocked by her apology. âDid the sun rise from the west today?â
Rachel held the cup nervously. âIt was my fault in the past. I misunderstood you. Now I formally apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me for what I have done before.â
Amber couldnât figure out why Rachel suddenly came to apologize. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that Mel was her purpose. She warned herself, âMrs. Barron, there should be something else to say other than an apology.â
âYes, in addition to apologizing, I have other things to tell you.â Rachel felt that it was a little hard to say the following words.
It was she who forced her son and Amber to divorce. At that time, she never dreamed that she would take the initiative to ask Amber and Rodney for a new marriage. She paused for a moment and said, âIt was my fault in the past. I broke you up with Rodney. This time, I came to apologize and hope that you could reconcile with Rodney.â
Amber was shocked. Rachel took the initiative to let him and Rodney reunite. Was there something wrong with her ears or was Rachel talking nonsense? âMrs. Barron, are you all right?â
After saying this, Rachel was not so embarrassed, so she continued, âIâm telling the truth. You are pregnant, so you canât give birth without a father, and Mel canât without a father. There has always been you in Rodneyâs heart. I hope you can reconcile with him. Donât worry, I wonât disturb you after you get married. You are alone.â
Amber couldnât understand why Rachel was so reasonable. She wouldnât answer her if she didnât understand. âMrs. Barron, letâs talk about this later.â
âYou canât take it easy anymore. Itâs been several months since you were pregnant. Youâd better get married to Rodney as soon as possible. This will be good for you, Rodney, and for the child.â
âSpeaking of being good to the child, I have a question for Mrs. Barron. Isnât Celia also pregnant with Rodneyâs child? Why donât you think about the child in her belly?â Amber asked tentatively. Rachelâs sudden change was really surprising, so Amber had to be on guard.
Rachel blushed and stammered, âI didnât recognize her before, but now I know I was wrong... Celia... I wonât let her enter the Barron family.â
Hearing Rachelâs words, Amber couldnât figure out what she wanted to do. âMrs. Barron, I appreciate your kindness. It depends on fate. Donât worry, after the child gets sick, I will let him reconcile with you. You donât have to worry about the problem that the child canât reconcile with you.â
Hearing Amberâs words, Rachel felt that she was too petty before. She apologized to Amber again. âI know it was all my fault in the past. Please forgive me for my re-marriage with Rodney. I beg you!â
Amber was really surprised that Rachel asked her for help. She had always been kind. Rachel was an elder after all. Since she was willing to bow her head and apologize, she didnât have to take it. So she replied, âMrs. Barron, youâre too kind. Amber has offended you a lot in the past. Last time when you were injured, Amber apologized to you.â
Rachel saw that Amber spoke politely. She knew that what she had done in the past had made Amber very wary of her. It didnât only take one or two days for her to remove her vigilance. So she said a few more words to Amber and said goodbye.
It didnât take long for Rodney to come back. When he entered the door, he asked her with a gloomy face, âMom, what are you going to do with Amber? Canât you calm down a little so that I can be at ease?â
If her son had questioned her like this before, Rachel would have been furious. But today, she asked her son to sit down with a good temper. âWhy donât you ask me why I went to find her?â
âDo you still need to guess why you went to see her? You must be persuading Amber to let the child return to his ancestral roots and make her stay away from me.â Rodney was not happy.
âDid Amber tell you that?â
âNo, I guessed it.â
âYouâre wrong. I went to Amber today to beg for her forgiveness.â Hearing that, Rodney stared at Rachel with his eyes wide open. He didnât believe that his mother would say something like that.
