Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 210

Hiram felt disappointed at being interrupted by the call. He gave Rachel a peck on her cheek and said,"I'm going upstairs to work out. Will you join me later?"

Rachel pouted but nodded to him. "Okay, let me answer my call first!"

Grabbing her phone, she threw herself onto her bed and picked the call up.

Celine screamed into the phone as if she was going to jump right out of it.

"Rachel! When did you take all these wedding photos? They're fabulous! And who was the man lifting your hemline for you? He looks like Clare Pei. Did you add him into the photo with Photoshop?

But I'm zooming in on the photo and it does look like a real Clare. Tell me right now, was it him or not?"

Afraid that Celine would make her go deaf, Rachel kept her phone away from her ear and said,"It's absolutely him! Believe me! I'll send you a photo of Clare and me later. You can see it yourself!"

"What?! Are you telling the truth? You took a photo with Clare? You're so dead, Rachel! Why did you go to meet Clare without me? I can't believe it!" Celine shouted. She'd always been a huge fan of Clare Pei.

Rachel laughed guiltily, and to comfort Celine, she said,"Next time, I'll bring you with me. I was in a rush last time, and had no time to pick you up."

"You'd better remember this! I'm going to hold you to it. Fine! Did you at least get his autograph for me?" Celine asked eagerly.

"Of course! I've several, and you can take as many as you like," Rachel replied delightedly.

Celine felt satisfied, because she'd been longing for Clare's signature for a long time. Then, she said,"Rachel, there's something I want to tell you, but it's not good news.

Fiona, some other colleagues and I had an argument with the director of our company the other day. On payday, we all found that our salary was 1000 bucks less than usual, so I went to ask him why. He said that the remaining salary would be paid at the end of this year. You should've seen his face when he said that. I wanted to punch him!

I begged him again and again. You know, most of us are barely making ends meet and we're really depending on this salary to pay our rent. It was cruel of them to withhold some of our salary like that. It feels like they're afraid of us leaving suddenly."

Hearing Celine's complaint, Rachel sat up on her bed and put the photos away. "What happened after that? How are you doing now?"

"I told him we would quit if they're going to act like this, and I also told him to keep the money himself!" Celine said. But feeling a little guilty, she added,"Dear Rachel, to tell you the truth, I only dared to shout at my boss like that because you would back me up. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the courage."

Rachel laughed and said,"You're right. I'll back you up. Since things are going like this, come and work with me as soon as possible. Bring all our colleagues who are suffering. The studio is available at any time. And if they're treating us this way, we don't need to stay faithful to them, so bring as many of our clients as possible with us."

If a boss cherished his employees and treated them fairly, then they would be on good terms when they left, but now, it seemed unnecessary.

"I knew we could always depend on you, Rachel. Don't worry! I have my backup plans, you know!" Celine said confidently.

Rachel knew about her plans, but didn't agree. She thought that they shouldn't do that to a company they had worked at for three years.

She hung up and put her phone on the table. Stretching, she opened her wardrobe to find her sportswear.

But to her surprise, she found two new handbags in it.

Even before putting a hand on them, she knew they must cost a lot. But unlike the luxury bags upstairs, these two handbags were modest and closer to the kind of handbags she usually used.

Rachel thought over it for a long moment before she realized that Hiram probably felt that the bag she took to work every day was too humble for her now.

'From now on, I've to pay more attention to my appearance, ' she thought with a hint of nostalgia for the days when she didn't care much about fashion.

Then, Rachel went to the gym on the third floor to join Hiram.

Hiram was doing chest exercises when she came in. Seeing him flex the strong muscles on his arms, Rachel thought to herself, 'It's no wonder he can hold me up so easily.

It is the result of all these hard exercises.

No one is born perfect, even if they look perfect all the time.'

She squatted down on the ground and watched Hiram work out for a while. She licked her lips, feeling the temperature rising as she watched him. Then she said,"I'm hungry, honey..."

Hiram took a deep breath and stopped. He turned to Rachel without standing up, raised his eyebrows, and asked,"What? You're hungry? For what?"
