Rachel knew that Rodney was not joking. In the three years after Amber left, her son had been living with her. There was no other woman around him except for Celia. The reason Celia could appear around him was because she compelled it. It had been three years but the relationship between her son and Celia had never improved.

This was the first time her son had officially told her what he was thinking. Rachel sighed sadly. “What did I do wrong?”

Amber’s absence from work for a day made Elliot feel extremely uncomfortable in his heart. “This woman had gone too far. She didn’t even request a leave of absence when she didn’t show up for work. What was she trying to do?” thought Elliot.

She must have gone to have fun with her lover. Thinking of this, Elliot was very angry. He originally wanted to call Amber directly, but he thought that this would make him lose face. So he asked Walter to call Amber and warn her that if she doesn’t come to work, she doesn’t have to show up anymore.

However, when Walter called her, her phone was turned off. Elliot got even angrier. “She must have turned her phone off because she didn’t want to be disturbed. Well, Amber Stone, let’s see how I will deal with you!”

Elliot spent the rest of the day cursing. In the evening, he finally couldn’t help driving to Amber’s place, only to find that the apartment was dark and Ashton was also not at home.

Elliot was so angry. “Don’t tell me that this woman has moved out?” he thought. He waited downstairs until midnight and did not see anyone. He then went home, full of resentment.

The next day, he rushed to her apartment early in the morning. This time, he finally saw Ashton. Only then did he find out that Amber was sick and hospitalised. Elliot rushed to the hospital immediately.

“What happened? It has only been one day since I didn’t see you. How did you become so sick?” Looking at Amber, who was lying on the hospital bed with a pale complexion, Elliot felt inexplicably distressed. Amber felt ashamed when she saw Elliot. If Elliot knew that she was almost raped, how embarrassed she would be.

Noemi answered, “She got wet in the rain the night before yesterday.”

“Got wet in the rain? Why were you in the rain?” Elliot stared at Amber from head to toe. “Why is there a bruise on your forehead?”

“She accidentally hit the wall,” Noemi replied.

“Were you drunk?” Amber left with Casen that night to attend a friend’s birthday party. Elliot naturally thought that Amber was drunk. “As a woman, why did you drink so much alcohol? Why didn’t your lover drink on your behalf?”

Mentioning her lover, he realised that he didn’t see Casen. Logically speaking, Casen should have come to the hospital to visit Amber, right? “Where is that Casen Slater?”

“Don’t mention him!” Noemi’s face turned cold.

“What happened?”

Amber looked at Noemi pitifully, hoping that Noemi would not blurt out what had happened to her. Noemi was a frank person, but she was not so stupid. Noemi said angrily, “That man broke up with Amber!”

“Really?” Elliot’s face was full of joy. During this period of time, his heart was extremely uncomfortable whenever he saw Amber dating that guy. He had been thinking of ways to separate them. Now they have indeed separated, thank God.

For a while, Elliot was happy, but then he started to feel a bit angry. He suspected that Amber must have become drunk, hit the wall and fallen sick because of that guy. Wasn’t he just a man? They had only known each other for a few days, but she hurt herself like this!
