Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 175

"Are you free tonight? I'd like to invite you to dinner, "

Asked Wayne politely, with a big smile.

Rachel stood still and didn't turn around to see him. She realized Wayne was walking closer, as she could smell the fragrance of the roses in his hands.

'Oh, God...

Are you kidding me right now? How could you?'

None of Rachel's blind dates had asked her out for a second time before, but now, men were attracted to her one by one, running after her hopelessly.

But did God forget that she was married? At least, Rachel didn't think so.

"Hey, Wayne! What a surprise! Why are you here?" Rachel had no choice but to turn to him. She gritted her teeth and forced a smile. Wayne stood right behind her gracefully, but Rachel didn't have the spirit to look at him now.

"Hmm, after I begged Celine for a long time, she finally told me where your company was. She said that she would have come to see you sooner if she hadn't been out on a business trip, " Wayne smiled at Rachel bashfully. He was too shy to look Rachel in the eye every time they met.

'Celine?' Rachel was confused. 'Anyway, I'll have a chat with Celine the next time I see her.' Celine was well aware that Rachel had been married to Hiram, but then what was her reason for causing this trouble? Celine must have overlooked Hiram's reaction to this.

"Wayne, listen, I thought I told you clearly that I am married, but look at you, I don't understand what you're doing here with those roses?" asked Rachel.

"Yes, I know, but I hope you accept these roses. Here you are. I have been waiting for an opportunity to get to know you better, but for now, relax, it's just a bouquet of flowers!" said Wayne.

Wayne thrust the roses into Rachel's hands, and pointed at his Hyundai parked on the other side of the road, "Come on. Let's have dinner together. I've got something to tell you, " said Wayne

Just a few steps away, Hiram was sitting in his Maybach, watching them.

Hiram carefully observed what was going on between Rachel and her admirer. He had been waiting for her in the car ever since she left the office, but now, she was getting in another car with someone else.

Chad was right. Rachel's bad luck had made a sharp U-turn since they got married. More and more men were attracted by her regardless of her marital status. Hiram's insides were boiling with fury.

"Look, Hiram! Rachel's getting in his car. What are you waiting for? Let's do something!"

Shouted Chad anxiously.

Somehow, Hiram squeezed a few words out of his mouth as he clenched his teeth.

"No, just follow them."

"Yes, Hiram! As you wish!" responded Chad immediately.

Chad stepped on the accelerator and sped out. They made a U-turn on the crossing ahead and followed the car Rachel was in.

Wayne brought Rachel to an expensive Japanese restaurant.

"Rachel, I heard what happened to you the other day. I'm glad you've returned safe and sound. Thank god!" Wayne stared at Rachel, who sat opposite to him, and comforted her.

Wayne never really got over Rachel ever since he first laid eyes on her. He felt terrible when he heard the news of Rachel being kidnapped, and so he decided to have a talk with her privately.

Wayne wanted to talk to Rachel about his feelings, because he knew that he would regret it for the rest of his life, if he didn't.

"I'm fine, look, safe and sound. Sorry for making you worry." On most occasions, Rachel didn't know how to deal with people's concerns for her, but this time she sensed something strange about this dinner.

"Rachel, I know it's inappropriate for me to judge your marriage, and I have no right to tell whether your husband was right or wrong on this matter, " Wayne continued.

He could feel the sweat in his palms, but he kept on, "But if he does not make you happy, I think you should leave him. I know that he must be richer than a king, and I'm nothing compared to him, but at least, I can promise that I'll be good to you for the rest of my life."

Rachel was shocked as she had never expected Wayne to say something like that. She didn't know what to say to him right away.

In the room next to Rachel and Wayne's, Hiram heard every word Wayne had said to Rachel.

Chad glanced at Hiram's face and coughed, "Hiram, this guy is really bold enough. Aha, he wants to take your wife away. How ridiculous!"

Infuriated, Hiram broke his brown chopsticks in two, as he grunted and sneered, "Chad, go and see what this guy does for a living."

Hiram left Wayne alone last time because he didn't want to upset Rachel, but this time Wayne was asking for it, and he wasn't going to pull his punches again.

Chad nodded at Hiram, to show that he understood what Hiram had meant.

Cut to Rachel and Wayne's table.

Rachel reluctantly feigned a smile on her face and said, "Wayne, you must have misunderstood what has happened. Anyway, Hiram and I didn't get divorced, and I'm not single."

However, in truth, she was the one who asked to file for a divorce, and she had mentioned it to Hiram more than once.

Fannie, however, was right, Rachel couldn't walk away as if nothing had happened between her and Hiram. They loved each other.

What Hiram did at the theater really hurt her feelings. Rachel knew that those memories wouldn't go away even as time passed by. The wound might have vanished, but the scar would be there forever.

However, when she calmed down and thought it over, She knew that Hiram loved her. She couldn't disregard his feeling for her and what he had done for her.

On the other hand, she couldn't deny her feelings for Hiram, neither. She was deeply in love with him.

"It is complicated. Yes, I might hate him for what he did to me, but I have to say that I also love him very much. I cannot stay away from him. Wayne, thank you for your kindness, and thank you for everything you've done for me."

Rachel took a deep breath and smiled at him apologetically, "Sorry, please don't waste your time on me anymore. Clearly, I don't deserve it."

Next door, Hiram's eyes were flashing in anger, but once he had heard what Rachel had said, his eyes lit up with satisfaction.

Did he hear her right? Did she just say that she loved him very much?

Hiram had never heard Rachel say the three words to him before.

Hiram used to resent the love between a woman and a man, but now his heart was jumping with joy when he heard Rachel's words.

It had to be the sweetest words in the world.

"Chad, leave him alone. For his sake, Rachel finally said something that matters a lot to me, " Hiram raised his lips and continued slowly, "But if he keeps obsessing over Rachel, let's do something to bring him back to his senses."

Cut to Rachel and Wayne.

Having been turned down by Rachel once again, Wayne felt frustrated as he gazed at her, "Rachel, I get that you love him, but what about him? For someone like him, there must be countless women lining up to have a fling with him. Do you think he feels the same way about you?"

Rachel shook her head slightly and said, "You don't know him, Wayne."

Cut to Hiram.

Hiram smashed his fist on the table at what Wayne had said, "Chad, listen to me. I want his company dissolved within a month."

Chad was nonplussed, wondering why Hiram changed his mind again and again in a matter of minutes.

Chad, however, agreed with Hiram. The guy next door had it coming. He dared to persuade Hiram's wife to leave Hiram. He needed to pay for what he said and a bankruptcy might not be sufficient.

Hiram's patience was running thin. He felt like he had heard enough and refused to listen to Wayne's nonsense any longer.

Suddenly, he stood up and walked out of the room.

"Rachel, If you say Hiram is different from the other men, I'll take your word for it, but he might abandon you again since he's already done it once before. Do you really think you can trust him after that?" asked Wayne.

Wayne sighed, and then gave it one last shot to try and persuade Rachel again.

When he heard that Hiram saved his sister first instead of Rachel, he felt indignant, thinking Hiram did not deserve Rachel's love.

A man, who couldn't protect his own wife, was worthless, even if he could afford to buy the sun.

"I hope that you'll think about my words, and if you end up divorcing him, I'll be waiting for you, as always. I don't mind putting everything behind and treating you like before. You deserve it!" continued Wayne.

Rachel signed, feeling restless, as she didn't know how to turn him down gently, for good.

Wayne had barely finished speaking when Hiram pulled the curtains of their chamber and walked in. He approached their table in an imposing manner, as if he were a king. Hiram's eyes glared right through Wayne, as if they were blades, glistening under the light.

"Wouldn't Mr. Wei think you're going beyond your depth by persuading my wife to get a divorce? I don't see what gives you right to do so. Your family fortune?"

Hiram said with a look of disgust on his face as he feigned a smile and glanced at Wayne.
