The people who came to eat tonight were all famous people in South City. Amber only knew a few people. Rodney and Kelsey sat by the window and saw Elliot and Amber coming in. Rodney glanced at them expressionlessly and then continued to talk to Kelsey.
Seeing that Elliot had brought Amber in, someone immediately teased him. âMr. Thomson, are you happy?â
Elliot glared at him. âBoy, be polite. This is not a new lover, but a sister-in-law!â
âSister-in-law?â Elliotâs words attracted everyoneâs attention. Rodney was originally holding a cup of tea with a smile on his face, but when he heard this, his eyes darkened instantly. âIs Elliot serious?â
âSister-in-law is really beautiful. Mr. Thomson is so lucky!â Someone praised.
âOf course. The woman I like must be both talented and beautiful.â Elliot was extremely pleased.
Amber glared at him, Elliot pulled out a chair. âDear, sit down!â
Amber felt goosebumps all over his body, and there was a burst of laughter around him. âMr. Thomson is always so considerate and gentle to women.â
Elliot reached out and patted the person who spoke. âYou, are you trying to embarrass me? Iâm telling you, from now on, Iâm only gentle and considerate to a woman.â
As he spoke, he looked at Amber. Amber ignored him. The person beside him laughed. âMr. Thomson, even Sister-in-law herself doesnât believe your words, let alone others.â
âTime goes by. Will you believe it soon?â
âI only know that dogs canât change their bad habits.â A man interrupted. Elliot glared at the man. âWait and see.â
âIâm so scared, sister-in-law. I was just joking. Mr. Mr. Thomson is gentle and devoted to you. Heâs only good to you. Donât kick him out of bed because of my joke tonight.â
As soon as he said that, the whole audience burst into laughter. Elliot waved his fist at the man and said, âBoy, if you donât talk, no one will treat you as a mute.â
âMr. Thomson, please spare me! Iâm just telling the truth!â
Amber couldnât help laughing as he watched them play.
Rodney looked at her smile and felt really upset. What was the relationship between her and Elliot?
Did he really go to bed? Elliot was a famous playboy. If he didnât go to bed, he wouldnât be so considerate and attentive, would he?
When he thought of the relationship between Amber and Elliot, he felt as if needles were pricking his heart.
Amber picked up a shrimp with her chopsticks and picked it up for Kelsey. Seeing his action, Amber sneered in his heart.
âRodney is so considerate to the new lover.â
She also picked up her chopsticks and put some food on the plate in front of Elliot. Because of her action, Elliot was so excited that he started to dance with joy.
She immediately ate the food Amber picked up for him and smacked her lips. âIt smells so good!â
A hint of gloom flashed across Rodneyâs eyes. A person beside him looked at Elliot and happily suggested, âSister-in-law, this is your first time here today. Why donât you have a drink with Mr. Thomson?â
âOkay, okay.â Immediately, someone echoed, âBring me a glass of wine! Hurry up and get ready!â
The person who proposed immediately filled the cup with wine and placed it in front of Amber and Elliot. Elliot picked up the glass and said, âDear, since we are all happy, you should give them some face.â
Rodney stopped eating and stared coldly at Amber and Rodney.
Amber didnât want to cooperate, but when she saw the look in Rodneyâs eyes, her anger rose. It was just a trick on the table.
What was she afraid of? So she picked up the glass and drank a toast with Elliot.
Watching them drink their cross-cupped wine, everyone cheered. Someone immediately raised their glasses to Amber. âItâs our first time meeting. Let me propose a toast to my sister-in-law!â
Elliot stopped her. âYou donât have to play like this. Since youâre here to toast me, you should toast all the ladies at the table. Is that right?â
Everyone echoed. Mr. Mason, who was toasting, didnât expect that he would be betrayed by Elliot, so he had to toast the ladies on the table one by one. When it was Kelseyâs turn, Rodney reached out to stop her. âKelsey canât drink!â
âCanât drink?â Mr. Mason was stunned and immediately smiled evilly. âIs it possible?â
All the people at his table looked at Kelsey and Rodney. âCongratulations, Mr. Barron!â
Rodney didnât explain and poured juice into the glass in front of Kelsey. Kelsey picked up the glass and clinked it with Mr. Mason.
Seeing this scene, Amber sneered in his heart. âWhat does this look like?â
If she knew that Kelsey had a child, Celia would definitely cry until she fainted in the bathroom.
Elliot didnât know what Amber was thinking. He also picked up his wine glass from the table and said, âAmber, letâs congratulate Mr. Barron too!â
âOkay!â Amber replied to Elliot with a smile. He raised his glass at Rodney and Kelsey with a smile. âCongratulations, Mr.
Barron!â
Rodneyâs heart ached when he saw her smiling eyes. She didnât care. She didnât care at all when she found out that he had a child with another woman.
It could be seen that she really had no feelings for him. He picked up the glass bitterly and drank up all the wine.
Kelsey glanced at Rodney worriedly. âDonât you have a bad stomach? Drink less.â
âI know what Iâm doing,â Rodney replied with a smile.
Amber couldnât accept their affection. She didnât know why she felt so bad. Rodney had nothing to do with her. Why did she feel so bad?
Elliot also noticed that Amber looked pale. He gently touched her hand and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âNothing.â Amber forced a smile.
âIf you donât feel well, Iâll send you back?â Elliot saw the reluctance in Amberâs eyes. She had always been a person who was not good at communicating. It was normal for her not to get used to such an occasion.
Mr. Mason had always been a person who refused to give up. Seeing Elliotâs concern for Amber, he immediately started to kick up a fuss. âI say, Childe Mr. Thomson, does sister-in-law also have one?â
His words made Rodneyâs whole body tremble, and he looked at Amber.
Amber ignored the inquiry in his eyes. He smiled and did not deny it. âHow did you know?â
âReally?â Mr. Mason laughed. âWow, itâs a double joy tonight. Childe Mr. Thomson, I respect you and my sister-in-law!â
Elliot looked at Amber and thought that she would be unhappy. He didnât expect her to be shy and not unhappy at all.
He laughed and said, âOkay! Letâs do it!â
When he saw Elliot laughing and drinking, Rodneyâs expression became even more unsightly.
To be honest, he didnât believe that Amber would get pregnant. But when he thought that she had a son so soon after the divorce, he immediately believed it.
Since she could have another manâs child, she could also have Elliotâs child.
His heart began to ache again. Why hadnât she been pregnant for three years after she married him?
Why? Why did God make such a joke?
Rodney felt pain in his heart. Without saying a word, he picked up the wine glass and poured the wine. Kelsey, who was next to him, was shocked. âDonât drink too much!â
As he spoke, he looked in Amberâs direction. Amber had a faint smile on his face as he looked at them like he was watching a joke.
It was said that those who were involved would be confused by the crowd. Kelsey knew very well why Rodney wanted to drink. It was because Amber had acquiesced to her pregnancy.
She was a woman and was more attentive than a man. If Amber was really pregnant, why did he drink just now?
It was obvious that her pregnancy was fake, and Rodney, who was next to her, believed it.
Looking at Rodney drinking, she felt bad and immediately said, âI donât think Miss. Stone looks like sheâs pregnant.â
âIs that so? How did Ms. Farrell know?â Amber sneered.
âIf you were pregnant, why did you drink just now? pregnant women canât drink.â
âMs. Farrell, thereâs something you donât know. The pregnant doctor said that we canât drink, but it doesnât mean that we canât drink. Iâm not just touching my lips. You donât have to worry about me.â Amber smiled faintly.
When Rodney heard this, he gulped down another glass of wine. Kelsey was extremely anxious to see him like this. âMiss.
Stone, pregnancy is not a joke!â
âDear, she doesnât believe that Iâm pregnant.â Amber looked at Elliot with a charming smile. âTell her.â
Elliot didnât know why Amber said that he was pregnant. He only knew that what Amber said was right, so he raised his eyebrows and said, âMs. Farrell, are you doubting my ability? Look at my body. Although itâs not perfect, I still have the ability to make Amber pregnant.â
Rodneyâs face turned blue and purple in an instant. He reached out to grab the bottle again. Kelsey held his hand tightly to prevent him from pouring the wine.
The people around laughed and said, âMs. Farrell, how much do you care about Mr. Barron! With such a beautiful and considerate woman as your bosom friend, Mr. Barron is worth it even if he dies.â
Hearing these teasing words, Amber was so depressed that he got up and left the box without saying a word.
Standing outside and looking up at the starry sky, Amber couldnât see a star on the dark sky. His heart was as dark and uncomfortable as the sky.
Amber hated himself very much as he heard the footsteps behind him and smelled the familiar scent.
Why did she know who was standing behind her without looking back?
A hoarse and low voice sounded. âAre you really pregnant?â
âDoes it have anything to do with you?â
âElliot is not a good person you can rely on!â
Rodney had not only said such words to Amber once, but he had never heard such harsh words in his ears. âMr. Barron, you are also a famous person. Donât you feel ashamed to slander someone behind your back?â
âIâm not slandering him. Iâm just telling the truth. The Mr. Thomson family wonât let you be with him!â
âYouâre right. The Mr. Thomson family wonât let me be with him, but there are exceptions.â Amberâs hand gently touched his belly.
This action of hers was undoubtedly telling Rodney that she was indeed pregnant. She wanted to rely on the mother in her belly to get a son.
Rodney felt extremely uncomfortable. The wine he had just drunk surged up and stimulated his nerves.
He grabbed Amberâs hand. âYou... youâre really pregnant?â
âLet go!â Amber shook off his hand in disgust.
âTell me, isnât it?â Rodneyâs grip was very tight.
âWhy should I tell you who you are?â Amber looked at him provocatively and smiled.
The smile in her eyes stimulated Rodneyâs nerves. He pulled Amber into his arms, held her tightly in his arms, and kissed her fiercely.
How could Amber allow Rodney to kiss her? She felt disgusted at the thought of everything between Rodney and Kelsey.
So she struggled desperately, trying not to let Rodney succeed. Rodney was already crazy. He pressed her against the wall and kissed her.
âItâs too dirty! Itâs fucking disgusting!â Amber kicked him hard in the leg. While Rodney was hesitating in pain, Amber bit his lips without hesitation.
Rodney loosened his grip and she immediately turned to run. A waiter behind her pushed a dining car over.
Looking at the steaming hot soup on the dining car, Rodney was shocked. It would be amazing if Amber ran into it.
Ignoring the pain, he immediately reached out to grab Amber. Amber was controlled by him. She didnât know that she was about to hit the dining car. She thought that Rodney wanted to force her, so she punched him hard in the fac
