Chasing My Rejected Wife by J.Liu

After thinking about it for a while, Breanna made an appointment with Amber at a coffee shop. Amber

entered the coffee shop 20 minutes in advance, but the old lady came in on time.

This was the second time the old lady had seen Amber after nine years. Amber’s appearance was still

the same as it was nine years ago. She was still so beautiful. Her beauty made all the people in the

coffee shop look at her.

The old lady walked to the opposite side of Amber and sat down. Amber smiled politely at her. “What

would you like to drink?”

“Blue Mountain!” The old lady spat out two words.

The waiter quickly brought coffee. The old lady stirred the coffee with a spoon for a while and then

stopped. She slowly said to Amber, “You are much thinner than before.”

Amber smiled faintly and did not speak.

She didn’t say anything and the old lady didn’t care. She sighed softly and said, “Time flies so fast! It’s

almost nine years!”

Amber understood what the old lady meant. She had once asked him to meet her in the cafe. Amber

still remembered what she had said at that time. “Don’t worry, old lady. I have always remembered

what you said to me. I will never have any improper thoughts.”

Her answer made the old lady’s face flash with embarrassment. At that time, she was not polite to

Amber at all and spoke without mercy. She picked up the coffee and took a sip.

“I’ve also heard about your son’s illness. He is such a little child, smart and lovely. What a poor boy.”

“That’s right. God is really blind!” Amber replied indifferently. There was no sign of sadness or joy on his

face.

“Amber, I want to ask you something.” Old Grandma had no choice but to cut to the chase. “Can you

leave Pierce? What I mean is that I can provide you with other help when your child needs treatment. I

just hope that you won’t appear in front of Pierce.”

Amber knew that the Old Madame must have been looking for him because of Pierce. If it had been in

the past, she would have readily agreed to leave Pierce. However, Mel’s treatment was currently

ongoing. Pierce said that the attending doctor’s treatment would be of great help to Mel’s illness. How

could she leave at this time?

“Amber, I know it’s not a good time to find you at this time, but I have no choice. For my parents and

elders, all they think about is the happiness of the younger generation. I don’t want to see my grandson

live alone like this for the rest of his life.”

Seeing that she was silent, the old lady pondered her words. “Pierce has always had you in his heart.

He has been single for you for nine years. How many years can he live for? Can you bear to watch him

die alone?”

“I’ve never thought of making Pierce grow old alone. Pierce is the best person I’ve ever met in my life. I

treat him as a friend, a bosom friend, and an elder brother. I hope that his happy heart will be the same

as yours,” Amber replied.

“I believe you want Pierce to be happy, but you know that Pierce’s happiness has always been

controlled by you. All these years, he has always been thinking about you. I have arranged more than

ten women for him, but he doesn’t like any of them… I’ve been worried about his life. Amber, I beg you

to stay away from Pierce!”

“Old Madame, do you really think that I’ll change everything when I’m away from Pierce?” Amber

smiled bitterly. “Back then, you told me to stay away from Pierce and fulfill his happiness. I listened to

you leaving Pierce and marrying Rodney. I’ve been married to him for five years, but he never got

married. Is it also my fault?”

“This…” Madam Dowager had nothing to say for a while. Indeed, Amber had been married to Rodney

for five years. Pierce knew that there was no change even if there was no hope. All of this seemed to

have nothing to do with Amber.

“Madam Dowager, I don’t think I have the ability to control Pierce. Perhaps one part of Pierce is indeed

because of me, but if it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t have become like this.”

“Amber, I’m indeed not thoughtful about what happened at that time. Pierce’s parents died when he

was a child. I raised him up by myself. I have high hopes for him, so I want to find a suitable wife for

him to be his strong helper. It’s not wrong for me to do so. On the contrary, since you know that you are

Channing’s daughter, why don’t you tell me your identity? As long as you love Pierce a little, you will

fight for it.”

“I have no feelings for Pierce at all?” Amber could not help sneering. She had always been pursuing

pure feelings, but things had always gone contrary to her wishes. The people around her were only

interested in status and power.

It was true that she had told Old Grandma that Channing might agree with her and Pierce, but no one

knew what she was thinking. Her mother had died because Channing had raised a mistress and an

illegitimate daughter. If she wanted her to acknowledge such a shameless person as her father, she

would not be able to overcome that hurdle.

“Madam Dowager, if your father had an affair with your mother behind her back and caused your

mother’s death, would you have recognized her?”

“Of course I won’t!” Old Grandma looked at Amber in surprise. “What do you mean?”

“If Old Madam paid a little attention to Channing, she would know that his daughter is the same age as

me.”

“I see!” Old Grandma sighed. “I misunderstood you. I’m sorry!”

“Madam Dowager, let me tell you the truth. It’s not that I didn’t like Pierce at that time, but I knew that

there was a huge difference between us, so I didn’t have the right to like him. So I suppressed this

affection in my heart. Later, after you told me those words, I quit on my own. I don’t deny that one of the

reasons why Tang Pierce is like this is because of me. Back then, I didn’t choose him with a piece of

blank paper. Now, I have experienced a lot and I won’t harm him. I will persuade him to find the other

half.”

Amber took a deep breath. “As for what you said, I’ll tell you very clearly that I won’t disappear…”

Suddenly, she found that the old lady’s face was pale and her eyes were full of horror. Amber was

stunned for a moment, only to find that the coffee shop was surprisingly quiet. She turned her head and

saw a few armed people in the coffee shop.

One of the robbers turned around and locked the door of the coffee shop, while the other robbers

pointed their guns at the coffee men in the coffee shop and asked them to gather together.

Amber, who had never encountered such a thing before, was stunned. For a moment, she sat on the

seat in a daze and could not move. Although the old lady was used to the big scene, the big scene only

limited the business competition. Everything in front of her was a matter of life and death. She was so

scared that she had no idea what to do.

The robbers came over with guns and knocked twice on the table in front of them, signaling them to

gather together with everyone. Amber helped the old lady into the crowd.

The robbers began to talk. They were careless because they wanted money. They asked the people in

the cafe to hand over their purses, including jewelry. In order to save their lives, they ordered them to

do as they were told.

A few robbers, armed with loaded guns, aimed at them. The other two bandits began to collect their

purses and snatch the jewelry separately. When it came to Old Grandma, Old Grandma handed her

purses directly and also handed the necklace and bracelet around her neck to the robbers.

The robbers opened the purse. There was little cash in Breanna’s purse, but there were a lot of bank

cards. The robbers’ target was cash, so they took out the cash and threw the purse to the old lady.

However, he didn’t want to drop a business card from inside. The robber picked up the business card

and looked at it carefully. He took the business card and ran to the leader and whispered a few words

in his ear. The leader came over and stared at the old lady for a while. “Are you Madam Hammond?”

Madam Hammond knew that it was useless to deny it, so she nodded.

Amber’s heart sank and he thought to himself, “This is not good. The Hammond family’s reputation

here is not ordinary. How could they let her go when they know the identity of Old Madame? This

matter must be terrible.”

She immediately said, “She’s not Madam Hammond. You’ve got the wrong person!”

“Isn’t it? I remember seeing Old Grandma’s photo in the newspaper.” The leader of the robbers

sneered. “Why don’t you call to seek confirmation?”

Madam Hammond knew that it was useless to escape, so she admitted her identity.

Sure enough, after confirming the identity of Old Grandma, the leader smiled evilly. “I didn’t expect to

meet Madam Hammond here. We want to invite Madam Hammond to come back with us. Don’t worry,

we are just asking for money. We won’t hurt you!” Then he winked at a robber.

The robber came up and dragged Madam Dowager out. Amber hurried forward to stop them. “You

can’t take her away!”

“Get lost!” The robber pushed Amber aside. Amber was pushed to the ground, but she didn’t give up.

She got up and continued to beg. “You took her away just for money, so it doesn’t matter if you take me

with you. I am her granddaughter. Let me be a hostage! Let my grandma go back, and she will raise

money for you.”

“Are you really her granddaughter?” The kidnapper asked in disbelief.

“Yes, I’m Breanna. My grandmother is old and not in good health. She can’t afford to be frightened. You

just don’t want to make trouble for money, do you?”

Breanna was the daughter of the Hammond family, so the robbers had naturally heard of her. After

some consideration, they realized that Old Grandma was indeed very old. It was inevitable for

accidents to happen to her as a hostage. However, Breanna was different. Thus, she put Old Grandma

down and chose Amber as a hostage.

Amber was taken out of the cafe by the robbers. Before she left, she told Madam Dowager to prepare

100 million dollars in cash. After the kidnappers took Amber away, the people in the cafe chose to call

the police. The police soon arrived. After some inquiries, they began to search the whole city for the

kidnappers. The police told Madam Dowager that if the robbers called, they must inform the police.

After a while, the old madam was sent home. The old madam was very worried about Amber’s safety. If

it weren’t for Amber, she would have been the one taken away by the kidnappers. She had to use the

ransom to save Amber.

Back at the Tang Residence, Madam Dowager ordered the housekeeper to prepare cash and send it to

save Amber when the kidnappers called. At this time, Breanna came back. After learning about the

situation, she stopped her. “Grandma, don’t you think it’s a good opportunity now?”

“What opportunity?”

“An opportunity to get rid of Amber,” Breanna reminded him. “As long as we don’t call for the ransom,

the kidnappers will definitely kill us. At that time, Amber will completely disappear. You don’t have to

worry about Big Brother anymore.”

“What did you say?” Madam Dowager looked at Breanna in surprise as if she didn’t know her at all.

“How could you have such a terrible idea? Amber was taken away by the kidnappers in order to save

grandma. Do you think it’s appropriate to add insult to injury?”

“I… I…” Breanna knew that she had made a slip of the tongue. She had always been gentle and kind.

It was no wonder that Old Grandma was surprised when she said that.
