Chapter 146: Chapter 148

When he drove back to the Hammond family, he saw Old Hammond and Breanna sitting in the living room as soon as he entered the door. Amber felt a little embarrassed instantly. In fact, he didn’t expect that Pierce would take her directly to the Hammond family’s mansion.

“Hello, Mrs. Hammond, Ms. Hammond.” She looked at Pierce awkwardly and was about to greet him.

The old lady stood up and looked Amber up and down. There was a faint smile on her kind face. “Mel, come and show me.”

Just when Amber thought he would be scolded, she squatted down and waved at Mel.

“Great grandma.” Mel ran over happily.

Breanna stood up and smiled. “Brother, Grandma said that I’m starving to death when you come back for dinner.” She complained and went to the dining table.

After dinner, Old Hammond took Amber to her room.

She took out a brocade box. Amber opened it for no reason. A jade green ring was lying in it, selling noodles.

“This is?” Amber looked at the old lady in confusion.

The old lady looked at it and said in a serious voice, “This is a family heirloom. It’s not something precious. It’s just that I have to pass it on to my daughter-in-law.”

“But... I!” Halfway through her words, she finally understood what the Old Madam meant. She looked at her incredulously. She remembered that the Old Madam had opposed it so firmly at that time. Why did it change now?

The old lady nodded with relief. She looked at her and said, “Mel is a good child. I hope he can have a complete family and my grandson can be happy. My family misunderstood you before, and now the old woman has thought it through. It doesn’t matter who my granddaughter-in-law is. What matters is that I should be happy.”

Amber really didn’t know what kind of expression she should have on her face. She had suffered so much in the past, but she still returned to her side. But at this moment, she was already a divorced woman with two children.

What kind of identity would she have to stand by his side when Pierce was so outstanding?

“I’m sorry, grandma. I have someone else’s child in my belly.” At this time, she didn’t know what else to do except to bluff.

The old lady was stunned and immediately understood what she meant. She sighed deeply and said, “I understand what you have experienced over the years. There is also my mistake. If it weren’t for...”

“No, Grandma, these have nothing to do with you, so you don’t have to do this.” She handed the brocade box back.

After saying a lot more, Amber finally ended the conversation with a sentence.

Walking out of the old lady’s room, Pierce stood at the door in a refreshing manner. Amber looked at him nervously, which was rare for him to feel a little uneasy.

“I’m pregnant, Pierce.” That was his first sentence. She didn’t know how to refuse. The person in front of her was so beautiful that she couldn’t trample on his reputation like this.

Pierce raised his head and his handsome eyes became more and more charming. “You know I never care about it.”

“But I care. I can’t let you suffer such humiliation,” she said firmly.

“You’re the one who didn’t want to, right? You’re still in love with Rodney, aren’t you?” The smile on his face was still the same as before.

Amber was stunned. His intuition told him that he didn’t want to answer this question.

The next day, she got up very early. It could also be said that she didn’t sleep at all.

Mel and Pierce had been exercising for a long time. It was already a habit for her to go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Breanna got up and received a call from Elliot. When she saw the name, she was overjoyed. “Why is Elliot so early?”

“Amber is back in the United States, isn’t he?” As soon as she said that, Breanna’s face darkened in an instant.

He never took the initiative to call her. It turned out that this time it was not for her, but for Amber again.

“Yes, I’m back!” she said happily. She didn’t want Elliot to dislike her, but she wasn’t that kind to Amber.

After hanging up the phone, she went downstairs. The old lady also came out of the room. She trotted forward and said, “Grandma.”

The Old Madam walked up to her warmly. However, she smiled faintly and went downstairs.

Breanna’s face stiffened and she put all the blame on Amber.

In the evening, Pierce and Mel suddenly disappeared. Amber said that she would go out to buy something, so she didn’t think much about it and followed them. When she returned to her room, she called the doctor to make an appointment for a check-up tomorrow.

Everything was ready. She looked at the time, and it was already seven o’clock in the evening. At this time, Mel should be resting. When she opened the door, she was shocked by the colorful lights in the room. She went to the fence and covered her mouth with her hands.

The large living room was empty, and a heart-shaped candle formation was placed downstairs. Pierce was dressed in an exquisite tuxedo, noble and elegant. This man had the most beautiful eyes, and Amber was unconsciously immersed in it.

“I’ll marry you, Amber!”

Amber was moved to tears by the proposal. If it had happened in those years, she would have agreed without hesitation.

However... his hand unconsciously covered his lower abdomen. There was a life there. It was a pity that their father was not Pierce.

“You should be happy to marry his child.” The old lady smiled.

Amber looked at Pierce. He had never been a romantic person, but today he did this because of her. She understood his heart that he had waited for a long time these years.

She slowly walked down the stairs and walked up to him. She asked, “Pierce, do you really not mind what happened over the years, as well as the child in my belly?”

Shaking his head, Pierce did not hesitate. There were more or less his factors along the way. He did not have the right to care about her. He could not wait to give her happiness.

Tears rolled down her cheeks silently, but she nodded in agreement.

Pierce put the ring on her hand and hugged her tightly. His heart was filled in an instant.

Behind her, Breanna had no expression on her face, but she was extremely uneasy in her heart. She had once harmed Amber.

There was no secret in the world. If Amber knew about this in the future, she would definitely not spare her. In the future, her brother would definitely take over the Hammond family. Her brother liked Amber so much, so he would definitely obey her words.

How could she live by then?

Her relationship with Elliot was already in imminent danger. If she did not have the support of her family, it would definitely be more difficult in the future. Not only would her life be difficult, but her parents would also have a hard time.

No! She couldn’t let her brother marry Amber. She had to find a way to stop him.

“Amber, can we have a talk?” After cleaning up the scene, Breanna walked up to her and asked.

Raising his head, Amber nodded with some embarrassment. The decision just now was indeed a little impulsive. Maybe it had been a long time since she felt happy. Pierce made her feel warm.

When they walked out of the Hammond Residence, they saw a large garden outside. Breanna went straight to the point. “Why did you agree to my brother’s proposal? I thought you would know when to stop.”

Amber frowned and looked at her in confusion. “Stop now? I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

Breanna snorted and said, “Don’t you understand? You clearly know that Elliot likes you. You showed up in my house in such a straightforward way and he will call you sister-in-law in the future. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing for you to have such a relationship?”

She was a princess who had been spoiled since she was a child, so she naturally did not know what it meant to hurt people, nor did she know what it meant to be tactful.

Amber listened silently. Breanna was right. She had an apology to Elliot, but she would not back down. This time, she was not willing to give up her rare chance of happiness.

She wanted to learn to gamble once, once with her and Pierce’s happiness.

She raised her head and said confidently, “Ms. Hammond, I know what you think, but Pierce and I really want to do everything. I only hope that you can bless us. As for Elliot, I believe he will understand.”

Breanna was stunned. She didn’t understand why Amber, who had never had a temper, suddenly became so tough. With the anger in her heart, her tone became harsh. “What blessing? You’re just a married woman with a child, and you don’t deserve to be with my brother? Amber, look at yourself! You didn’t deserve it in the past, but now you don’t!”

“Breanna, what are you talking about!” Pierce’s voice suddenly sounded with unprecedented anger.

Seeing Breanna’s pale face, Pierce went straight to Amber and held his hand. He looked at Breanna coldly and said, “Just take care of yourself. It’s not up to you to talk about my business!”

After that, she pulled Amber and walked back.

Amber looked curiously at the side of his face. She had never seen such a powerful Pierce before, so she couldn’t help smiling.

They disappeared at the corner. Breanna looked at them with hatred. She was unwilling to see Pierce never talk to her like this.

He had always doted on her.

“It’s all that woman’s fault... Just wait and see!”

In the hospital ward in South City.

Rodney slowly opened his eyes and looked around to make sure that this was a hospital.

She slowly sat up and touched a person with her hand. Her eyes lit up and she turned her head, but the next moment, her eyes dimmed.

It wasn’t Amber!

Celia was awakened. She raised her head and looked at him happily. “You’re awake...”

Rodney nodded and looked at her coldly. “Why are you here?”

“Kelsey told me that she was not going abroad. She didn’t have time to take care of you, so I came here.” At that time, Kelsey was really scared when she said that. When she heard that it was because of Amber’s departure, she was jealous and happy.

There was no problem with her physical examination. Itzel said that she could have an operation right away...

She looked at Rodney happily. Perhaps he would be the child’s father in the near future.

“What are you laughing at?” His head was still hurting. Looking at this silly woman, he felt even more headache.

Shaking her head, Celia stood up and poured him a cup of tea. At this moment, Rodney’s cell phone rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a foreign number. He immediately picked it up with joy. “Amber...”

“Why do you think it’s Amber?” Breanna’s somewhat unfamiliar voice rang out from the other end of the phone. Rodney head was taken aback for a moment before he regained his senses.

“You are...” Not Amber, he was a little disappointed.

The corners of Breanna’s mouth curved up. “I’m Breanna, Pierce’s younger sister. Mr. Barron, you don’t have a good memory.”

Rodney was slightly stunned. Breanna? That was to say, Elliot’s fiancee.

“What’s the matter?” He wanted to hang up, but he had nothing to say to these people.

Naturally, Breanna would not let him hang up. “My brother proposed to your beloved woman today. Don’t you want to know the result? Amber has agreed.”

He closed his eyes. “Amber, you really can’t wait!”

“Amber agreed, but that’s not what I want to tell you.” Breanna paused for a moment. “Mr. Barron... do you know who Mel is?”

That was the purpose of her call.
