Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 121

Rachel leaned on his shoulder, twiddling her thumbs uneasily. She wanted to respond but she didn't know how to express herself.

Hiram didn't hear the answer he wanted. "Why the silence? If you're reluctant to forgive me, don't force yourself to do it. It just shows that I haven't done enough. I'll try my best to make you accept me. And I believe that by then, you'll give me a positive answer without hesitation, "

Hiram said while gently caressing her long hair.

At a famous restaurant for private home cuisine in H City.

Daniel had invited the six people who had gone to Cliff Mountain with him, and everyone had turned up except the older engineer, who didn't come because he was still feeling under the weather after returning from Cliff Mountain. Besides, he was busy with work.

Hiram had also invited the veterans to dinner. They were sitting at another table. Although Hiram had paid them a high remuneration, he wanted to give them a treat to show his gratitude for saving his life at such a critical time.

"Yummy. This dish tastes really good. Hiram, try this!" Rachel took a bite of the dish. It was crunchy and had a mixed flavor of sweet and sour. It was so delicious! She picked up a piece of it and put it on Hiram's plate.

"The doctor suggested that you eat light food. Greasy food can't be digested easily. Take good care of yourself. You just recovered from a high fever." Hiram couldn't help reminding her when he saw her eat a lot of greasy food.

Rachel had been put on a drip for two days, which had caused a slight damage to her stomach. If she kept eating greasy food, she would feel uncomfortable later.

Rachel barely tucked a piece of fish into her mouth when Hiram said that. But she pretended not to hear his words and kept chewing. When she was in the hospital, all she could eat was mild soup. She really wanted to eat something with flavor.

"Wow, it's quite rare to see Mr. Rong care for other people. But you don't worry about that because I already told the chef not to put too much oil and flavor in the dishes!" Daniel filled his glass, raised it and drank a toast to Hiram.

Hiram took a sip of red wine. He was also a little surprised. If he hadn't been teased by Daniel, Hiram wouldn't have realized that he had become so thoughtful.

Reminding Rachel of watching her diet was because he cared for her heath. He never fretted when Rachel quarreled with him, but he had been agitated when he saw her lie on the sickbed listlessly.

He always hated people who continuously reminded him of something when he was eating and doing work.

However, he had become one of them.

Rachel pulled his fingers slightly and murmured, "I know. I'll have a proper diet and won't eat too much."

Hearing her words, Hiram couldn't help laughing.

After a while, the door of the private room opened. The proprietor walked in with a dish of braised prawns in her hands and placed it in front of Daniel.

"Daniel, you haven't been here for a long time. If the waiter hadn't told me, I wouldn't even know that you're here!"

Although the proprietor seemed to be thirty-five or thirty-six years old, she was still hot and attractive. Her fingernails were painted a sexy shade of purple. She put her hand on Daniel's shoulder and gave a little squeeze.

Instead of avoiding the proprietor, Daniel held her waist, blinked his beautiful eyes and said, "I've only been sitting here for a while. You came before I could meet you. Besides, this is your territory. If I'm here, you'll definitely know it!"

"Sweet talk." The proprietor gave him a coquettish glance. But when she saw Hiram sitting across the table, she took a step back from Daniel and nodded to show her respect.

She had only paid attention to Daniel because she hadn't known that Hiram was there. From her experience, she knew that her behavior hadn't been proper, so she left the private room immediately.

As soon as she left, Gary tapped Daniel's plate with his chopsticks and said, "It seems to be true that you have girlfriends everywhere. Although you haven't been in H City for so long, the proprietor still remembers you?"

"Gary, you have to admit that Daniel has the capacity to attract girls. After all, he has a good appearance. Isn't it a pity if he doesn't make good use of it?" Hiram put in a good word for Daniel with a smile on his face.

Hearing his words, Rachel subconsciously stopped eating to look at Hiram.

"Why are you staring at me?" Hiram asked. 'Is she associating me with Daniel again?' he thought.

Rachel wordlessly shifted her eyes back to her plate and resumed eating. Although she didn't know what kind of person Hiram had been before meeting her, she believed that he was quite different from Daniel.

Obviously, Daniel was a person who would do everything he wanted to do. It was fair to say that he was a man who was dominated by his sexual desire.

But Hiram...

Rachel was satisfied with him because he remained loyal to her.

Anyone who saw the intimacy between Daniel and the proprietor could tell that they weren't just friends. Rachel suddenly remembered what Daniel had said that stormy night when they were on Cliff Mountain.

'He said he liked me, but that's impossible. He must have said it deliberately to distract my attention, ' Rachel thought. She quickly stopped pondering over Daniel's words. That stormy night, Rachel had been so worried about Hiram that she had wanted to follow him despite the bad weather and dangerous terrain. So, Daniel had probably said such things to divert her attention away from going after Hiram.

Daniel was always bold enough to say and do anything, but it was difficult for people to know his real thoughts.

After dinner, everyone left except Daniel who spent more time staying in the restaurant. As soon as he walked out, Gary began to tease him.

"You're leaving the restaurant? I thought you'd stay there for a long time. Or that maybe you'd just stay there overnight. How could you satisfy your desire in such a short time?" Gary teased.

Rachel had already got into the car, but she could still hear them though their voices were not loud.

"Hello, mom, haven't you gone to bed?" she asked by phone. She closed the car window to get rid of the traffic noise.

"I just got into bed. I heard that you went to the mountain with Hiram. Are you okay?" It was Fannie on the other end of the line.

Rachel looked outside. Gary and Daniel were having a play fighting. On the other side, Hiram was pacing and speaking on the phone with one hand in his pocket. His tall and strong figure as well as his handsome appearance attracted the attention of the girls who were passing by him. A few of them secretly took photos of him.

"Yes, everything went well. I'll have time the day after tomorrow, so I'll come back to visit you. How's everything going? Is there anyone who 'abuses' you this time?" Rachel asked, watching a girl who looked about twenty years old walk up to Hiram and speak to him boldly.

"'Abuse?' That's not the proper word for it. You wronged Emma and Nurse Jean. They take good care of me. Jean not only takes my blood pressure every day but also reminds me of taking my medicine on time. In terms of looking after me, they're better than you!"

Fannie couldn't help praising Nurse Jean and Emma who had been arranged by Hiram to take care of her, because they were really nice and helpful.

"Oh, mom, can anyone belittle their own daughter like you?" Rachel laughed and pressed her face against the car window, trying to get a closer look. Hiram was still speaking on the phone, but he had put on a cold look to avoid the harassment from the girls.

"You'll come back the day after tomorrow? That's great! Your granduncle and grandaunt are also at home. I think it's time to have a family meeting. I can't bear what I have suffered silently. Besides, we can't let your uncle distort the facts before we even tell them what happened, " Fannie said.

If Colin came back and twisted the truth first, it would be difficult for Fannie and Rachel to explain the whole thing.

So, it was necessary for Fannie to announce that Rachel and Hiram had gotten married to the elders first. She couldn't conceal it any longer.

"Okay, you're right. I promise I'll come back the day after tomorrow!" Rachel opened the car door and said hastily, "Mom, I have something to deal with here. Talk to you later!"

After hanging up the phone, she got out of the car and walked towards Hiram.

It was a hot summer night and there were many bars on the street, so people were coming and leaving continuously.

There was a gentle summer breeze outside, so Daniel was chatting with Chad and Gary on the street instead of getting into his car. But he soon found himself surrounded by girls, much to his delight.

Meanwhile, Hiram had been smoking a cigarette as he talked on the phone. He finally hung up, then extinguished the cigarette end and threw it into the dustbin before heading towards the car.

But just when he had taken a step forward, a girl suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way. She seemed drunk.
