Chapter 198
Shannon’s viciousness made Rodney very worried about Amber’s safety. Since Shannon could deal with her mother so crazily, she would definitely do something to Amber. He had to tell Amber about this matter so that Amber could be more careful.
Rodney went to see Amber and told him about Shannon and Malone. Amber was very surprised. There was no doubt that Shannon, who seduced Channing and gave birth to Celia, was a person with loose morals. However, Amber never thought that she would hurt people so viciously.
“This woman is too vicious. Call the police and arrest her immediately.” Amber was angry and worried.
Rodney shook his head. “We can’t call the police! It’s too easy for them.”
“What do you want to do?”
“An eye for an eye!” Rodney sneered. “They schemed so hard against us. It would be too easy for them if we just arrested them and put them in jail. I want them to have a taste of being framed.”
Rachel’s life and death in the hospital were uncertain. He was mentally and physically exhausted, but the person who schemed was living a free and easy life. Rodney was willing to accept it. Going to jail was just a means, and it could not change anything. Rodney felt that letting a person suffer was not to let her die, but to let her target miss, let her endure the torture of physical and spirit, and let her live a life worse than death.
He had to use his own method to make the perpetrator suffer, so he would not simply send them into jail.
Amber understood Rodney’s pain. “Do you need me to help you with anything?”
“As long as you take good care of yourself and Mel, it will be of the greatest help to me. In order to prevent them from being anxious, I have arranged several bodyguards for you. Someone will protect
you from behind when you go out in the future.”
“No, it will make me feel uncomfortable.” Amber shook his head. It would be very uncomfortable for someone behind her to be noticed by others. She didn’t want to be like this.
“No, you have to listen to me this time. That Shannon is a vicious person. If she does something to you, the consequences will be unimaginable.” Rodney insisted. “I will ask them to try not to attract your attention. I’m just afraid that you will find out that someone is following you and have a misunderstanding.”
“All right.” Seeing that he insisted, Amber had to agree. She was pregnant now, so she didn’t go out often. Apart from bringing Mel to the hospital, she stayed at home. The existence of this bodyguard wouldn’t affect her life.
“Don’t tell anyone about what happened to Shannon and the others. Don’t ruin my plan,” Rodney warned again.
“Uncle, can’t you tell me?”
“No, you’re the only one who knows about this.”
Elliot told Amber about Shannon’s affair. Walter came. He had been investigating the man who was injured by Elliot in the restaurant for the past few days. He told Elliot that the identities of the three people had been checked. The man was the owner of a bar in the street of the western area. His name was George. One of the two women was his wife, and the other was his fault.
“It’s really love and a mistress. But didn’t you say that they are as good as a person? It’s very rare to see love and a wife get along well in this world. The key is that since they are so good, why do they put on such a show in the restaurant?” Elliot was strange.
“I also felt strange, so I carefully investigated George. After a few days of investigation, I found some information. George used to be a gangster. He cheated, cheated, fought, and fought countless times. In the last two years, he began to take the right path and opened a shop in the western area. He has been very well-behaved in recent years and has never committed any crimes.”
“Does this mean that we are suspecting the wrong person?” Elliot frowned. “Forget it, let’s take it slow. Pay more attention to this person.”
He gave the photo of Malone to Walter. “This person has a special relationship with Mr. Black’s wife. Keep an eye on him recently. It’s best if I can get the photos of them together.”
Walter took the photo and looked at it in surprise. “Why is it him?”
“Do you know this person?”
“This person is called Malone. He used to hang out with George, but now the two of them don’t want to do business…”
“What did you say?” Elliot suddenly stood up. With the ambiguous relationship between Shannon and Malone, the answer was almost out.
Elliot went to have dinner in the evening and told Amber about Shannon’s private meeting with Malone. Amber had already heard about the whole thing from Rodney. She was not very surprised when she heard Elliot’s words. The only strange thing was that Rodney said that Shannon colluded with Malone to harm people, while Elliot said that Shannon cheated on him. She had to tell Rodney about it.
Amber looked calm, but Noemi was very excited. “I used to think that this b*tch often went to the beauty salon to do something bad. It’s exactly what I thought. I have to tell Mr. Black about this immediately and let him see what kind of person the woman around him is!”
“No!” Amber stopped him. Rodney had said not to alert the enemy. Wasn’t what he was doing now ruining his plan? “As the saying goes, catch the stolen goods, catch the stolen goods, catch the stolen goods, and arrest the stolen goods. We didn’t get any evidence to prove that Shannon and that man are together. It’s hard to believe.”
“Are you afraid that Channing would not believe it?” Noemi sneered. “The most hateful thing for men is to be cuckolded. Channing was just about to hear about it. Even if Shannon didn’t cheat on him, he would never believe that she was innocent.”
“In fact, I’m not afraid that he won’t believe me. I just don’t want him to regret it! After all, it’s unbearable to anyone.” Amber shook his head. Channing would never tolerate his woman cheating, but Shannon was not easy to deal with.
As long as she heard the news, she would definitely find a way to remedy it. If this matter was not handled properly, it would alert the enemy. Of course, the other reason why Amber didn’t want to affect Rodney’s plan was that she really didn’t want to make trouble for Channing.
There was nothing wrong with her parents in the world. After all, Channing had given her life. She had no reason to let Channing have to endure such humiliation at such an old age.
“Everyone has to take responsibility for themselves. This is retribution. Shannon shamelessly seduced her best friend, so she should be punished.” Noemi insisted.
“Noemi, I don’t want to have anything to do with them. I have my own life, so I don’t have to be entangled with them. I won’t be happy either.”
“I knew you would do this. It’s really a good opportunity.” Noemi curled her lips. Ashton interrupted, “People can’t live in hatred. They will be very tired and they won’t be happy. I think Amber is right. I support Amber!”
“Uncle!” Noemi stamped her feet. She hoped that Ashton could help her persuade Amber, but she didn’t expect that Ashton would say that.
“Life is short and there is no need to suffer because of other people’s mistakes. Channing’s life has nothing to do with us. Whether Shannon cheated or did anything against the law, it has nothing to do with us. Let’s not get involved and just live a good life.”
Seeing that both Amber and Ashton were against it and were not interested in dealing with Shannon, Noemi and Elliot had to give up.
After dinner, Elliot said that he wanted to go to the bar to drink. When he asked Noemi if she wanted to go with him, Elliot had never invited her to drink. Noemi felt that he had something to say, so she went out with him.
However, Elliot did not have anything to say as Noemi had imagined. Instead, he took her to a bar in a roundabout way.
The bar was not the kind of high-end bar, and the atmosphere was also very bad. Noemi felt strange. Elliot had always been used to going to high-end places. Why did he suddenly think of visiting such a small place?
After drinking a few mouthfuls of wine, Noemi was in a bad mood, so she complained to Elliot, “I’m so angry! Why do you think Amber is so stupid? This is obviously a good opportunity to deal with Shannon. Why doesn’t Amber use it? And uncle, I really suspect that he is not Amber’s biological uncle. Does he have such an uncle? Seeing his niece being bullied and his sister being framed, he swallowed his anger!”
Elliot smiled. “Calm down. They have their own reasons. Ashton was not wrong. He just wanted Amber to live a simple and happy life. In fact, he was right. If he had been talking bad about Channing and
Shannon in Amber’s ear, Amber would not be like this now. She would definitely hate Channing and become extremely extreme. But now Amber is not like this. She is full of enthusiasm for life. She has hope. It’s undeniable that it’s Ashton’s credit.”
“You also changed your mind? So you don’t want to deal with the b*tch and her daughter?” Noemi was very disappointed.
“If Shannon regretted her mistake that year, and if she just made a mistake at that time, I would consider letting her go, but she was obviously not like that.” Elliot sneered. “Do you still remember what happened in the restaurant that day?”
“I remember.” Speaking of this, Noemi was a little embarrassed. “I caused you trouble that day.”
“No, that’s not what I’m going to say. Look over there. Do you think it’s familiar?” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Wasn’t that woman the one who cheated on the man that day?” Noemi recognized the woman.
“You have a good memory. Look over there.” Elliot pointed to the other side. Noemi followed and saw the man who was beaten and his wife talking with each other.
“What’s going on? Did they make up?” Noemi was confused and looked at the emotion not far away. There was no need to make up in front of the emotion.
“This man is the owner of this bar. The woman is the boss’ wife. That’s because he’s a waiter here,” Elliot explained.
Noemi looked around and was completely confused. The story of these three people was not the version she saw. The boss of the bar hooked up with the waiter’s wife and there was no such thing as working hard to support the family.
“Do something smart in the future. Not everything is worth it…” Before Elliot could finish his words, Noemi suddenly stood up. He grabbed Noemi’s hand and asked, “What do you want to do?”
