Chasing My Rejected Wife by J.Liu

The next morning, Amber went to the office with a bruised face, and so did Elliot. The two looked at each other and couldn’t help but burst out laughing. The atmosphere instantly became much better than before.

During lunch, Elliot brought Amber to the nearest restaurant. The restaurant served Thai food. Amber wondered in her heart, “Doesn’t Elliot dislike Thai food? What happened today?”

They sat down at a table, but before they could order anything, a voice was heard scoffing, “It seems that I’m having a bit of a lucky streak recently!”

Amber looked over and saw Mr. Mason with two men staring intensely at her and Elliot. Although Elliot had just arrived in South City, he had already known the situation in South City very well. When he saw Mr. Mason, he recognised him at a glance. So he sneered and said, “You’re right, the devil’s children have the devil’s luck!”

“Teach this guy a lesson first!” Mr. Mason ordered his two followers.

The two followers rushed towards Elliot, thinking that they could handle him easily at first. However, they didn’t expect that they would be so badly defeated by Elliot only after a few rounds.

Elliot knocked down the two followers and went straight towards Mr. Mason. Mr. Mason panicked. “Do you know who I am? My father is Ewan Mason, the MP for the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities. If you dare to touch me, I’ll make sure you die a gruesome death!”

The only response he received was in the form of punches and kicks. Mr. Mason was beaten till his face turned black and blue. Seeing that there was a fight, the waiter in the restaurant called the police at once. Soon, the police arrived.

They were all taken to the police station together. Elliot had always been calm, but Mr. Mason was used to being arrogant. He behaved rudely even in the police station. “You jerk, I’ll kill you when you get out! You just wait!”

The fight, causing Elliot and Mr. Mason to be brought to the police station, was quickly reported to Rodney by Deon. “Didn’t Elliot’s special assistant go visit the Mason family earlier this morning? Why did they fight at noon? Does he not want the urban construction project anymore?”

Hearing this, Rodney was surprised. “This matter is not going to be that simple. Keep an eye on it.”

Ewan Mason also rushed to the police station after hearing that his son had been beaten up. He was shocked to see that it was Elliot who had fought with his son.

Seeing that Ewan Mason had arrived, Elliot immediately changed his attitude. He apologised humbly and even mentioned the compensation. Needless to say, Mr. Mason was very happy to see Elliot’s cowardly look.

Seeing his son’s bruised and swollen face, one can imagine how angry Ewan Mason was in his heart. “Mr. Thomson can dream on if he wanted to get the urban construction project. However, this matter could not be settled just like this,” thought Ewan. He had to cheat a large sum of money from Elliot, let him pay out, and make his efforts go to waste.

As he planned this in his heart, Elliot’s special assistant came in the evening. He apologised in an extremely good attitude and even asked someone to bring a few boxes in.

After Walter left, Ewan and his wife opened the boxes. The boxes were all filled with cash, which were at least a few million dollars.

It seemed that Elliot had done a pretty good job. He knew that he actually liked cash.

However, Elliot’s money was destined to be wasted. He would not even lift a finger to help Elliot with the urban construction project. Ewan happily puts the cash away in the storage room, but little did he know that he would be facing a great disaster soon.

It wasn’t until Amber was at the police station that she found out that this Mr. Mason was the son of Ewan Mason. Seeing Elliot apologising humbly, she felt very upset.

Elliot had always been arrogant and domineering in front of her. Since when he had ever bowed his head to others like this. She knew very well that he was being humble for the sake of the urban construction project.
