Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 88

In the Streams Company, Outside the office of the Chief Executive, Carl said to Rachel, "Rachel, Hiram is still occupied with his work. He will come and find you as soon as he is done with his work." Carl stopped Rachel as she was about to break through into Hiram's office since there was an official meeting going on inside.

"Carl! You'd better let me in. I have to see Hiram immediately." Rachel pushed him away. When she was just about to push the door to go in, the door opened from inside.

Three managers came out, but they walked straight towards the elevator without looking sideways. It was pretty clear that Hiram had instructed them to do that.

"Carl, let her in." Hiram shouted from his office.

Rachel pushed the door and went in the office directly. Hiram immediately got up from his chair and walked towards her. He softly said, "Rachel, sorry it's been a very busy day today. Why are you so anxious to see me? What's the matter?"

Rachel stopped in front of his desk, without taking another step forward. She stared at him right through his eyes concentrically.

"Give me the divorce agreement, " Rachel said.

Hiram took a few steps toward her and stopped right in front of her. He stood very close to her and looked deep into her eyes. He glanced at her as the spring sun bathed her. As a reflex, he lifted his hand to play with her soft long hair. "What's the hurry? You're already my wife. Are you afraid I will go back on my words?"

"Since you will not go back on your words, show me the divorce agreement right away." Rachel continued. Rachel kept looking at him motionlessly. Not until this moment that she realized that this man was lying. Strangely, he lied so calmly.

Did that mean that, in the future, if he ever wanted to hide anything from her, he could easily succeed in it?

She was still uncertain on how to reply to what Lydia said a moment ago.

But after she thought it through, things were not really good.

Last time when they were in Hiram's study, he was supposed to take it out then. However, then he said that it was in his office. Hiram's memory was superb. It had been acknowledged by Joanna more than once. How could he forget such an important thing?

This time, she was not allowed to enter his office for various reasons. It seemed like he didn't want her to come here at all.

All these coincidences really made her suspicious.

Had that divorce agreement really been submitted?

Had she been divorced already?

However, before Lydia told her that, she was foolishly thinking that she was in a happy marriage!

Hiram's silence further aggravated her suspicion. The long-endured tears in her eyes tilted down. At that moment, even her last line of defence disappeared completely.

"Hiram, tell me. Are we divorced?"

Rachel asked again with every bit of strength left in her. It seemed as if she would just break down into pieces the very next second.

Hiram took a deep breath. His eyebrows wrinkled tightly. He slightly looked down as if he did not dare to look at Rachel and said, "Rachel, I'm sorry. I didn't keep it well and let Lydia find the divorce agreement."

It was indeed his negligence that he thought it was safe to leave the agreement at home. He never thought Lydia would be so bold to look over his room and find the agreement.

Whatever the reason might be, it was his sheer negligence that led to this.

"So... You mean... We are divorced?" Rachel retreated a step. She began panicking. It seemed to her that her whole world was now chaotic.

In an instant, her whole world collapsed. All these days, she was really trying her best to convince herself to accept the fact that she was his wife. And now that she was ready to build a future with him, they were divorced.

How come all of a sudden, they were divorced? Why? How?

"Rachel. Don't panic. We can remarry even if we are divorced. I said I will marry you, so I will marry you. Trust me for once, will you?" Hiram looked at her in panic. He felt a pain in his heart and quickly strode forward, holding her shoulder and said.

Rachel struggled to break free. She shook her head, and her tears rolled down her cheeks. "Hiram, marriage is not a joke. I have been longed for a marriage that will last my whole life and will have no cracks!"

Rachel cared about her marriage so much and wanted it to be perfect. That was why she was so devastated by the matter.

"Since we are divorced, now there is no relation between us any more." Rachel was heart broken and said.

When Rachel finished her words, she wiped her tears hastily. She then pushed open the door of the office and walked away.

Hiram was about to go after her, but his phone rang at that moment and he stopped.

After Rachel walked out of the Streams Company, she strode on the street with no destination. She didn't know where to go. Besides, she didn't know if there was anywhere that she could actually go.

She wandered on the streets. And it took her a really long time before she finally remembered that she still had a home.

She walked back to the home that belonged to her and Fannie. On reaching the home, she curled herself up in the room. Her face was expressionless and her eyes were full of tears.

She didn't know how long she had been crying when she heard the knocking on the door. Someone outside was banging the door very hard.

It seemed like it was being knocked for a very long time until Rachel regained her consciousness. She finally, went ahead and opened the door. Rachel looked like a walking corpse.

As soon as the door was opened, she was embraced in a tight hug as if she was going to be swallowed up!

"Rachel, it's my fault, it's all my fault. You can scold me, but please don't leave me, " Hiram said in a pleading tone. Hiram looked at her expressionless face. He could see the pain in Rachel's eyes. This hurt his heart. It seemed like his heart was pierced with a knife and splashed with oil.

He knew what their marriage meant to Rachel. This was why he did not dare to tell anything to Rachel till now.

"Please don't act like this. Rachel you're my wife not only for now but also for the future. This is a fact and nobody can change that." Hiram tried to comfort her with his words.

"Let me go, " Rachel said.

Rachel did not respond until she regained her consciousness after being hugged so tightly by Hiram that she wasn't even able to breath properly.

When Hiram heard her talking, he quickly released her and murmured, "Don't be angry. As long as we haven't got the divorce certificate, we are not legally divorced."

"Hiram, is there any difference at all? In this world, you can't just do whatever you want to do. Earlier you promised me that no matter what happens, your decision won't change and you'll not submit the divorce agreement. Now you have already done it!"

Rachel smiled sarcastically and said. This man was really cold-blooded and ruthless. If he really wanted to spend his life with her, he would have destroyed the divorce agreement long time ago.

But, he did not.

"Since the fact is we're divorced. No matter what you are going to say or going to do, it is all meaningless now. I'm glad that our marriage lasted for only a month. It is good because I didn't develop any deep feelings for you yet. Now it would be easier for me to let you go."

As Rachel spoke, she closed her eyes slowly. The smile on her lips looked brilliant and radiating but beneath that smile she was bitter cold.

Hiram squinted his deep eyes, and his smile just faded away gradually.

"Rachel, do you even know what you are talking about?

You are my woman now. If you do not marry me, who else will you get married to?" Hiram shouted.

"Mr. Rong, don't you think you're being too narcissistic? In this world, there may be some men remaining single but there is no woman who can't get married. Do you really think that I can't live without you?" Rachel answered in a cold voice.

Rachel was very angry now. At this moment, she just felt that he was a supercilious and self-conceited man.

Did he really think that she wouldn't be able to live without him?

'Indeed, let's just find out who isn't able to live without whom, ' Rachel thought.

Hiram was now getting irritated by her words. As long as he was with her, he always suppressed his temper. He was afraid that she might be hurt if he ever lost his cool on her. But now he realized that all his efforts were totally denied by her.

"Rachel, don't you ever forget that divorced or not, you are and will always be mine. That 100, 000, 000 dollars was paid to buy the rest of your life but not just one month of your life." Hiram said in an angry tone.

He was thoroughly enraged. He tried his best to comfort her, but she did not accept any of his explanation. Rachel was just not ready to forgive him. Since this woman had a heart of stone, why should he suppress himself to protect her?

"Mr. Rong, you finally reveal who you really are, don't you? Any way, these days, all your efforts to get me have not been in vain, have they? Since you have already got what you want, it's time for you to let me go now." Rachel was a stubborn person who never thought to retreat. Ignoring the anger in Hiram's eyes, she said.

Hiram snorted coldly, and his lips were grinning emotionlessly. "Would it be so easy for you to just take my money and leave as and when you want? Let me tell you, you'd better drop that thought." Hiram answered.

As he spoke, he approached her abruptly. He was full of rage and went up to her and hugged her tightly in his arms. "You are mine. You are my woman, whether we are divorced or not!"

As Hiram removed her shirt, she felt a sudden chill in her body. Realizing what just happened, she covered her body with one of her hands and slapped Hiram on his face with the other hand.

As Hiram was slapped unexpectedly, the anger in his eyes gradually rose to a flame of fire.

At this moment he completely lost his cool all because of this woman.
