When Channing returned home in the evening, Shannon and her daughter greeted him with a smile. “You’re back!”

Channing nodded and sat down on the sofa. Shannon instructed Celia, “Celia, make some tea for your father.”

Shannon then sat down beside Channing. “Channing, I heard that Amber is back?”

Channing nodded briefly. “Yes, Amber is back!”

Shannon didn’t expect that Channing had already met Amber. She was very worried deep down concerning Amber’s sudden appearance after disappearing for a few years. This isn’t going to be so simple, she thought. As she was thinking about it, she asked tentatively, “Then why didn’t you bring her home? The child has suffered so much! We should care more about her.” Shannon acted like a loving mother.

“It’s not the right time now. Amber still has a deep resentment against me! She won’t forgive me!” Channing sighed. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t think it through back then. Not only did I let Celia suffer, but Amber too!”

Seeing that Channing had brought up the past incident, Shannon sighed as well, “We did it for Amber’s good. Who would expect that such a thing could happen. Channing, why don’t we talk to Amber and explain it to her in person?”

“Amber is very stubborn. I’m afraid it’s useless to find her and explain it!”

This meant that Amber did not intend to forgive Channing. Shannon let out a sigh of relief. “Then what should we do? I’m worried about her being all alone now.”

“This matter can’t be rushed, we have to take it slow!” Channing sighed, “Shannon, if Amber is willing to come back, you have to treat her well. Even if she gives you a hard time, you have to endure it.”

“I know. Don’t worry, I know what I have to do.”

“And Celia.” Channing looked at Celia. “You also treat Amber better. If she is angry, let her vent it out. If she wants anything, don’t fight with her for it.”

“Yes, dad,” Celia replied obediently.

Shannon glanced at her daughter, then directed her gaze at her husband. “What about Celia and Rodney’s engagement ceremony?”

“I will look for Mrs. Barron and discuss about it with her.” Channing replied.

Shannon heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m just afraid that Amber will feel uncomfortable. Although we did it out of kindness, but Celia is indeed with Rodney now….”

“It wasn’t Celia’s fault, it’s all my fault,” Channing sighed. “I’ll explain it to Amber in the future. Now, both of you just need to remember not to provoke her.”

“Don’t worry. Celia and I will never provoke Amber.”

Channing was very satisfied with Shannon’s guarantee. “In addition to not provoke her, there’s one more thing I have to make clear to you. After Celia and Rodney get married, I will leave all my property to Amber as a form of compensation.”

“I didn’t stay with you for the sake of those properties. Celia also will never fight with Amber,” Shannon agreed to it readily. Compared to Rodney’s property, whatever the Black family possessed was just a tiny amount. Only a fool like Amber would give up on Rodney.

“Dad, I only want Rodney. I don’t want anything else,” Celia also expressed herself. Channing was very satisfied with his wife and daughter’s understanding. “I’m sorry for asking so much from both of you!”
