Chasing My Rejected Wife by J.Liu

Amber already had doubts about Rachel’s sudden improvement. Now, the doubts in his heart became

more and more obvious. “Did Rachel deliberately confuse me and let me let down my guard, and then

find an opportunity to hurt me?”

Although this idea was a little incredible, she did not dare to joke with the child in her belly. She smiled

faintly and said, “Well, I like to add milk in the bird’s nest. I’ll add more milk.”

As she spoke, she turned around and entered the house. Riya followed behind her. After a few steps,

Amber turned around and stopped Riya. “Oh, I forgot one thing. Mel suffered a great shock when she

was picked up by Mrs. Barron last time. She has always been afraid of seeing you and her. You’d

better not go in and be seen by him, in case he cries.”

Riya stopped and asked awkwardly, “Is he afraid of me?”

“Yes, that day when he came out of the hospital, he always said that the two bad old women were so

hateful. If they dare to bully him again in the future, I will call the police to arrest them.”

What she said was half true and half false. Mel just said that she wanted the police to catch Rachel,

and she didn’t say that she wanted to catch Riya. However, when Amber saw Riya’s embarrassment,

he vented his hatred and lied to her.

As expected, Riya felt even more embarrassed. “Well, I’ll wait for you here.”

Amber smiled at her and turned to walk into the house.

Back in the house, Ashton looked at the thermal container in her hand and asked, “What’s that? Who

sent it?”

“Uncle, this is the bird’s nest that Rachel asked Riya to send me. She said it would nourish my body.”

Amber put the insulated box on the tea table.

Ashton was shocked. “Did she really send you bird’s nest? How could Celia guess so accurately? Is

there really something wrong with this bird’s nest?”

Amber glanced at Mel, who was sitting on the ground and playing with her toys. He motioned for

Ashton to follow her into the kitchen and told her about Riya’s strange performance just now.

Ashton’s face darkened. “There must be a problem. Please don’t eat it.”

“Don’t worry, I don’t know how to eat,” Amber said as he opened the lid of the insulated box. He

glanced at the contents of the box and a strange expression appeared on his face.

There were more than half of the cooked bird’s nest soup in the insulated box. The soup was orange-

red in color and had a kind of fragrance, which was different from what she had eaten before.

“Hey, why is the color of this bird’s nest so red? It’s impossible for the red bird’s nest to be so red!” Over

the years, Amber had eaten many tonics in order to give birth to a child. In addition, the Barron family

was a rich family, so the delicacies of the mountains and the seas were as common as usual. Although

the red bird’s nest was precious, Amber had eaten it many times. He felt that something was wrong at

a glance.

Ashton went up to take a look. He picked up the insulated box and sniffed it. His expression changed

drastically. “There’s the smell of red flowers hidden in this bird’s nest.”

“What! Hidden red flowers?”

“That’s right.” Ashton took a pair of chopsticks and rummaged through it. He picked up a slender

orange stem and said with a solemn expression, “Look, this is a red flower. The person who cooked the

bird’s nest wasn’t meticulous enough. He didn’t choose the red flower and left this one behind.”

Amber took a deep breath. She knew that Ashton often read medical books for Mel’s illness, especially

during these days, he studied traditional native herbs every day. It was not surprising that he knew the

hidden red flowers. She suspected that Rachel would play tricks in the bird’s nest, but she didn’t expect

that she would put the hidden red flowers in the bird’s nest. After all, the hidden red flowers had the

effect of abortion. Wasn’t Rachel trying to hurt the child in her belly?

Thinking of the consequences of eating these bird’s nests, Amber was not cold but trembled. “Why is

this old witch so vicious? She actually wants to harm my child.”

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. She knows that the baby in your belly belongs to Rodney,

and Mel is waiting to save you with blood. Why did she kill you?” Ashton was calmer than Amber, so he

immediately thought of this question.

Amber gritted his teeth and said, “She must hate me for breaking her leg, and she also ruthlessly

admires Rodney for refusing to listen to her. That’s why he tried to kill me.”

Ashton shook his head. “I don’t think she would do that. ‘Tiger poison doesn’t eat its children’. Mel and

the child in your belly are both her grandsons. No matter how cruel she is, she won’t do anything to her

grandson.”

Amber didn’t take it seriously. “For Rachel, that b*tch Celia is also her grandson. She has always liked

that b*tch. Now that the b*tch is pregnant with twins, she is more important than Mel and the child in my

belly.”

“No, she wants a grandson so much. No matter who gave birth, as long as it is the blood of the Barron

family, she will care. I think there must be something wrong. You just said that she sent someone here.

Who is that person?”

“It’s her nanny, Riya. I want her to wait in the garden.”

Ashton raised an eyebrow. “Could it be that the nanny did something to her?”

“No way. I have no feud with Riya. How could she want to hurt me? Even if she did something to me, it

was also Rachel’s order.”

In the past few years in the Barron family, Amber had always been polite to Riya. He knew that he had

never offended her, so she would not harm her. However, Riya had been a nanny in the Barron family

for many years and had always listened to Rachel. If it was Rachel who ordered her to do this, she

would not dare to disobey.

Ashton pondered for a moment and said, “Then go and test Riya first and see what she says.”

“Okay, I’ll go and ask her now.” Amber also felt that Ashton’s words were reasonable. He hurriedly

closed the door, picked it up, and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Ashton.

“Wait a minute. Get some bird’s nest soup and keep it as evidence. Take a hidden red flower and show

it to her.”

Amber understood that Ashton was afraid that Rachel would not admit it. He took a bowl of bird’s nest

soup and went out.

Walking out of the door of the living room, Amber was even more annoyed when he saw Riya looking

anxiously at the house. He walked quickly to her and put the insulated box in her arms. He said sternly,

“Riya, take a good look at what is inside. How dare you give it to me?”

Riya looked at the insulated box in confusion. “Isn’t this bird’s nest?” Then she opened the lid and

checked it.

Amber pointed to the thermal container and said, “Do you see it clearly? Is the bird’s nest cooked in

this color? Is it so fragrant? You have been in the Barron family for so many years and often cook bird’s

nest. You should know it better than me, right?”

Riya stared at the bird’s nest in the insulated box and exclaimed, “Oh, how could this bird’s nest be in

this color? Madam clearly said that this was a good red bird’s nest, and she deliberately asked

someone to buy it from Mount Xie. It is absolutely a genuine one. Why does it look like a man-made

defective product?”

“What defective product? There are obviously hidden red flowers in it. Look at what this is.” Amber

picked up the hidden red flower mixed in the bird’s nest and handed it to Riya.

“A hidden red flower? No way!” Riya opened her eyes wide and looked at the hidden red flower in her

hand in disbelief.

“Stop pretending!” Amber sneered. “No wonder you asked me to eat it right away. It turned out that you

were afraid that if I didn’t eat it, your plot wouldn’t succeed. Tell me honestly, did Rachel ask you to do

this?”

Riya waved her hand hard and said, “No, no, the bird’s nest was soaked in water from the beginning to

the end and put into the thermal container. I’m only responsible for bringing it to you. I really don’t know

what’s going on. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Madam.”

“Okay, let’s go to the Barron family and ask Rachel in person who did it.” Amber took the lunch box,

grabbed Riya, and walked out.

Riya just struggled a little and followed her out of the gate of the villa. There was no panic on her face,

only confusion.

Seeing this, Amber felt that Riya really didn’t know about it. Otherwise, she would definitely be very

scared.

One must know that Rachel’s temper was famous for being irritable. If she was a little dissatisfied, she

would be furious with Riya. If Riya was really ordered by her to hurt her, now that her conspiracy had

been exposed, she would definitely put the blame on Riya. After that, she would definitely scold Riya

badly.

It seemed that it was really Rachel who did it. She didn’t expect that the old witch would be so cruel

that she didn’t even care about Mel.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. When the driver of the Barron family, saw them

coming out, he immediately got out of the car and opened the door. Amber did not care. He opened the

door and got in the car directly, followed by Rachel.

On the way, Riya defended Rachel, saying that Rachel would not be so malicious to hurt the child in

Amber’s belly. She must have made a mistake accidentally.

Amber glared at Riya. “Don’t tell me she’s blind. She can’t even tell if it’s a bird’s nest or a hidden red

flower.”

Riya hurriedly explained, “No, what I mean is that Madam may have taken the traditional native

medicine called Tibetan Flower and cooked bird’s nest for you. She accidentally mixed the two things.”

Amber sneered and said, “Humph, she ate Tibetan red flowers on her own? Is she having an irregular

period or is she having an affair after delivery? I don’t know if she still has that kind of function at such

an old age.”

Riya was stunned for a moment before she realized that Amber was mocking Rachel for being an old

woman. She didn’t need to take the Hidden Red Flower at all. After a few seconds, she smiled

apologetically and said, “Didn’t you say that the Hidden Red Flower could nourish one’s face and

beauty? Maybe it was for this reason that Madam ate it?”

“Okay, you don’t have to explain it to her.” Amber interrupted her, feeling that it was ridiculous. Even if

Rachel really wanted to use the hidden red flowers to nourish her face, it was impossible for her to

cook the soup herself, and it was even more impossible for her to pour the soup from the hidden red

flowers into the bird’s nest.

Riya stopped talking. Looking at Amber’s gloomy face, she didn’t dare to say a word.

…

The car drove into the Barron family’s house and stopped. Amber opened the door and got out of the

car. Riya followed her closely.

Walking into the living room, Amber put the insulated box on the tea table, sat down on the sofa, and

said to Riya,

“Where’s Rachel?”

“When I left, Madam took a nap upstairs. She should be sleeping upstairs now,” Riya replied.

“You asked her to come down?”

“Madam doesn’t like to be disturbed when she is sleeping. Miss. Stone, I think you’d better wait here for

a while. Let’s talk about it when Madam wakes up.”

“Why are you taking a nap at this hour? Could it be that you don’t dare to come out to see me after

hearing that I’m here?” Amber sneered. “Okay, she won’t come to see me. I’ll go see her.”

As she spoke, she walked upstairs. Riya stopped her. “Miss. Stone, you can’t go upstairs.”

“What are you doing? I told you to ask her to come down, but you didn’t. What do you mean by

stopping me from going up?” After that, she shook off Riya’s hand.

Riya followed her for two steps, and the phone at the corner of the sofa suddenly rang. She had to turn

around and answer the phone.

Amber had lived here for many years and knew where Rachel’s bedroom was. Without waiting for Riya,

he went upstairs.

Rachel’s bedroom was on the right side of the second floor, which was closest to the inside. Amber

walked to the door, raised his hand, and knocked on the door. When he heard no sound, he knocked

again, but still no one responded. He was a little impatient. Without any courtesy, he pushed the door

open and went in.

As soon as he entered the room, Amber was stunned. On the wooden floor in front of the bed, Rachel

lay motionless on the ground, as if she had fainted.
