Chasing My Rejected Wife
Chapter 174

While thinking, Channing said, “Amber, I’ve asked Aunt Maleah to arrange a children’s room for Mel. It’s right next to your room. You can move it back with Mel! In this way, everyone can have a passport.”

Amber shook his head. It was normal for Channing to like Mel, but Shannon and Celia were different. The mother and daughter were not good friends. If they had any bad intentions, the consequences would be unimaginable. “Forget it, I appreciate your kindness. If you want to visit Mel at any time, you don’t have to move back.”

“Are you worried about Celia? I’ve already decided to send her abroad to study. I’m now handling the procedures. She’ll be done soon…” Channing told him about sending Celia abroad. “There won’t be any problems between you and Rodney after she leaves you.”

Amber didn’t expect that Channing would do this for her. She shook her head and said, “One of the reasons why I don’t move back is because of Celia and her daughter. But there is another reason, which is that I won’t stay in our country for long. I will take Mel abroad in the future.”

“You’re not going to get married to Rodney?” Channing was surprised.

“I don’t have any plans for now.”

“Amber, Rodney is a good man. It’s my fault. Please forgive him.” Channing pleaded for Rodney.

“This has nothing to do with what happened back then…” Amber didn’t know how to explain the relationship between her and Rodney.

“That’s because of Celia? Amber, it’s not his intention for Rodney and Celia to be together. He was set up by that hateful Kelsey.”

Channing had just told Amber about what Itzel had told him. “Amber, Rodney isn’t an unforgivable villain. He’s also a victim. You should give him a chance even for the sake of his child.”

Amber looked at Channing in surprise. She didn’t know that Celia and Rodney were drunk on the bed at all. Now that Channing had said it out loud, she was simply too shocked.

No matter whether Rodney had been tricked or not, it was a fact that he slept with Celia. Amber smiled bitterly. Before this, she might have thought of giving him a chance, but how could she give him a chance when such a thing happened?

Channing didn’t know what was on Amber’s mind. He lowered his head and said, “Amber, I’m an experienced man. I can understand his helplessness.”

Amber interrupted him. “Is it because you are all cheating men that you feel sorry for each other?”

“No! Dad didn’t cheat back then.” Channing tried to defend himself.

“When I was drunk, something should not have happened between my father and Shannon. My father has a deep affection for your mother. I have always blamed myself for what happened. I didn’t dare to face your mother for a long time, for fear that she would know. That kind of remorse has always been with me.”

“But didn’t you also allow the mistress to marry into your family?” Amber sneered. If Channing had married her after his mother’s death, he would have supported his decision. But in the end, he had taken the mistress as his wife. It was the most unbearable thing for her to let go of the mistress.

“Back then, I was possessed by a ghost.” Channing forced a smile. “Amber, this is the most unforgivable thing that I have done. I know that I am a bastard, and I have regretted it for half of my life because of this. Because of this lesson, I came to advise you that you and Rodney have mutual feelings for each other. You can’t be separated because of being schemed against by others. Kelsey deliberately planned to scheme to separate you and Rodney so as to achieve her goal. If you really separate from Rodney, won’t you satisfy her? I hope you won’t do such a thing, which will make people hate you.”

Amber remained silent. Channing continued to persuade him earnestly, “There will always be many unexpected changes in a person’s life. What you’ve encountered now is nothing more than a scratch in your long life. I hope that you won’t run away from it. Instead, I hope you can face it bravely and face it together with Rodney. Think about it. If you hadn’t run away at that time, I would have heard Rodney explain that you and Rodney wouldn’t have become like this. So, Amber, you must give Rodney a chance.”

Amber’s mind was in a mess. There was a reason behind Channing’s words, but it was too surprising that Rodney and Celia were framed by Kelsey. She couldn’t think about it in a short time. “Let me think about it!”

Channing had just left. Amber sat by the bed in a daze after coaxing Mel to sleep. Was it Kelsey who plotted against Celia and Rodney? And it was the night before he left.

That night, Rodney did not return. She had once called Rodney. It was Rachel who answered the call and said that Rodney was sleeping at home.

The next morning, she went to the hospital to check if she was pregnant. After leaving the hospital, she received a call from Kelsey and told her very arrogantly that she and Rodney were together last night.

At that time, her heart was full of joy and excitement after she was pregnant. She did not care about Kelsey’s provocation. Now that she thought about it, it was really strange. Since Kelsey had plotted against Celia and Rodney, why did she lie to her?

“Wait!” She suddenly remembered something. At that time, in the hospital garden, she heard Celia and Shannon talking about checking her body. At that time, Celia seemed to be in her period. Since her period was here, how could she have s*x with Rodney?

There was something strange about this. Was Kelsey lying or was Celia lying?

Channing had just said goodbye to Amber and was ready to go back to the municipal government, but he didn’t expect to receive a call from Shannon on the way. “Mr. Black, come back quickly. Something big has happened!”

“What’s the big deal?” Channing was impatient.

“Celia… Celia, she… she’s pregnant!” Shannon said hesitantly.

Channing suddenly sat up straight and looked at Clem, who was driving. “Go home immediately!”

As soon as Channing returned home, Shannon was walking back and forth in the living room. Celia was crying on the sofa with her hands covering her face. Channing strode in and saw Channing and Shannon coming over. “What should we do now?”

“Go to the hospital immediately!” Channing ordered briefly.

She was going to the hospital to get rid of the baby without giving any chance to explain. Shannon and Celia felt cold in their hearts. Celia continued to cover her face and cry, while Shannon said with a bitter face, “I took Celia to the hospital when I found out.”

“So the child has been made?” Channing had just let out a sigh of relief.

“No.”

“Why don’t you do it?” Channing’s face suddenly darkened.

“Celia’s body is not allowed!” Shannon handed a check-up list to Channing. “The doctor said that Celia is in poor health. If she gives birth to this child, she will never have another child in her life, so…”

Channing did not look at the check-up list handed over by Shannon. His cold eyes swept over Shannon and Celia’s faces. He knew his daughter’s feelings for Rodney very well. Now that she was pregnant with Rodney’s child, she must have tried her best to stay. This so-called poor girl would not have a child for the rest of her life. It was probably that they had come up with a perfunctory excuse.

Channing sneered in his heart. Although his hands and hands were full of flesh and b***d, compared with Amber, Celia and he owed Amber the most. He was the one who caused Amber’s current situation. He would never allow such a thing to happen again.

Channing tried his best to make his voice sound normal. “Celia, don’t cry. I’ll take you to have a check.”

It seemed that she was concerned, but Shannon knew very well that Channing didn’t believe that there was something wrong with Celia’s health. She reached out to pull Celia up. “Don’t cry. I know a lot of people. Let’s follow me for a check-up. Maybe it’s a mistake.”

Her words were very loud and clear. Channing smiled meaningfully and took the lead in striding out. Shannon supported Celia and followed her closely. They got into the car. Channing just ordered Clem, “Go to the nearby City C.”

Shannon didn’t expect that Channing was so heavily guarded. He didn’t check Celia’s body in the South City. Instead, he would rather run to the nearby City C. City C was hundreds of kilometers away from the South City. No matter how long he was, he couldn’t reach there. It seemed that Channing didn’t trust her anymore. Shannon was worried. Fortunately, there was something wrong with Celia’s health. Otherwise, she would be sad.

How could Channing, who had been an official for many years, not know what Shannon was thinking? He said lightly, “There are too many people in South City, so it’s inevitable that it will be exposed. No one in C City will know us.”

She was explaining why she had to stay away from him. When Channing was about to put on an act, Shannon followed suit. She pretended to be flustered and said, “I didn’t think too much. This morning, I found something wrong with Celia, so I took her to the hospital for an examination. What should we do? Won’t we be found out?”

“I don’t think so!” Channing didn’t want to talk about this topic anymore, so he took out his mobile phone and began to make a phone call. The phone was quickly connected, and a smiling voice sounded. “Mr. Secretary, why do you have time to call our civilians?”

“I have something to ask of you, don’t I?” There was a smile on Channing’s face.

“If you have something to tell me, just tell me. If you want to ask me for help, I’ll take it as an outsider!”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony. I want to ask my old classmate for help with an abortion.”

“A human flow?” The other party was shocked. “Who’s pregnant?”

“It’s a little embarrassing. I won’t hide it from my old classmate. My daughter is pregnant, but there are some unspeakable secrets. I can’t keep this child, so I came to ask my old classmate for help.”

“No problem. I’ll wait for you in the hospital.” The other party was very straightforward.

A few hours later, the car stopped at the gate of a large hospital in City C. Channing and Shannon entered the hospital together. After Channing entered the hospital, he took Celia to the orthopedics department. His old classmate, Chen Ning, was the director of the department. Seeing him coming, he directly took Celia to the examination room. After a check-up, he looked serious and asked Channing, “She had human traffic before, and then there was some problem with the operation, which had an impact on her body.”

“What kind of influence?”

“Let me tell you this. Normally, she can’t be pregnant in this situation. It’s really a miracle that she can be pregnant this time. If she is pregnant with this child, she may not be able to have a baby for the rest of her life.”

Channing didn’t expect that what Shannon said was true. He was stunned for a moment.

“And I want to tell you that the baby in her belly has just been revealed by the b***d test. It’s twins.”

Channing didn’t care about whether it was a twin or not. What he was worried about now was the sequelae. If Celia couldn’t give birth in this life, it would be too cruel for her to give birth to this child. If she didn’t do it, it would inevitably affect Amber and Rodney. What should she do?

Shannon gently pinched Celia with her hand. Celia didn’t respond and looked at her mother blankly. Shannon exerted her strength, and her voice carried a hint of crying. “What should I do? Celia, my poor child!”
