Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 184

Looking at the microphone in front of her, Rachel was speechless. What was wrong with this reporter? Why on earth was he asking her how she felt about the kidnapping?

If she were Hiram, she would smash his face in immediately.

Instead, she answered, "No comment."

Then, she turned around and walked towards the Streams Company building, leaving the reporter behind. The reporter scratched his head and wondered if all the employees at Streams were this arrogant.

The other journalists patted him on the shoulder and said, "Never mind. Since she's working at Streams, she might get fired if she says something inappropriate. Of course she would keep her mouth shut!"

That made sense. The reporter nodded his head and watched Rachel walk towards the elevator.

Rachel got into the elevator and pressed 28.

Since the team had to hand in their phones for the past two weeks of training, she hadn't contacted Hiram since the last time she was in his office.

All she knew was that Hiram had made a few phone calls to Daniel.

The elevator opened, and Rachel was surprised at what she saw in front of her.

A man with a cold face was waiting in front of the elevator doors with his hands in his pockets.

Seeing her, he didn't say a word, but immediately grabbed her by the waist and lifted her up in an embrace.

Carrying her into the small suite in the CEO office, Hiram kissed Rachel. He kissed her on her face, on her neck, on her collarbone...

"Rachel, I hated myself for letting you go! I missed you so much, " he said.

Rachel threw her arms around his neck and took a moment to catch her breath before saying, "Hiram, wait. I'm back now."

"No, I can't wait anymore. I want you, Rachel…"

Rachel could feel Hiram's warm breath on her face. His deep eyes were filled with desire, the desire to kiss her, to…

Rachel sighed. She could feel his hands under her clothes. But just when she was about to close her eyes and begin to enjoy this, she heard Chad's voice outside the office saying, "Hi, Aunt Joanna. Why are you here? Hiram is working inside. I should go tell him you're here."

Joanna stopped at the office door and said, "No need. I can just walk in and talk to him."

Since it would be rude for Chad to stop Joanna or ask her to stay outside, all he could do was watch her push the office door open. Hiram had suppressed his desire for a long time. Things were going to be embarrassing now.

"Hiram… Rachel? I wasn't expecting you to be here too." Joanna said, walking into the office. She saw Hiram sitting in front of his desk and Rachel coming out of the suite with a coat in her hands. From what she knew, Rachel had just come back from the training.

"Mom, what brings you here?" Hiram asked, before telling Chad to bring Joanna a cup of tea.

"I was just doing some shopping and happened to pass by your office, so I decided to come and visit you, " Joanna said, walking towards the sofa.

Rachel was still holding onto the coat which Hiram had taken off her just a few moments ago. She hadn't had time to put it back on. She said gently, "Mom."

Joanna sat on the sofa and gestured Rachel to sit next to her. "Rachel, you haven't come home for such a long time. Are you still mad at me and Lydia?"

"Mom, you've come at the right time, " Hiram said, interrupting her. "Would you join us for dinner tonight before you go home?" He glanced at Rachel, then took the tea from Chad and gave it to Joanna.

"I know you're busy with your work. But you haven't come home to have dinner with us for a long time. I know work is important, but you need to take care of yourself too. Don't work too hard!" Joanna sighed.

So many things were happening these days. Although Joanna had retired a long time ago and enjoyed a relaxed life now, it didn't mean that she knew nothing about the outside world.

And this time, someone had tried to destroy the dignity of the Rong family. Rumors about them were flying around the whole city.

Rachel lowered her head and stared at her hands. "Mom, would you excuse me? I want to go to the restroom."

Joanna nodded her head. When Rachel walked out of the office, Joanna said to Hiram, "Hiram, is Rachel still mad at Lydia? Lydia didn't mean to do that. She just got nervous in that situation."

Hiram sat on the sofa. His eyes were gloomy as he said, "Mom, Lydia doesn't like Rachel. You know that. Therefore, there's no point arguing about who is right or who is wrong.

What we can do is mention Lydia in front of Rachel as little as possible. I don't want to hurt her feelings anymore."

Joanna sighed and said, "All right, I got it. Oh, right. Judd called me. They want Rachel to clear things up in front of the public. What do you think?"

Hiram snorted. He hadn't expected Judd Zhao to tell Joanna about all these things so quickly. "Mom, I don't think asking Rachel to do that is the best solution.

The public thinks of Rachel as the victim. If we ask her to clear things up on behalf of our family, it's so unfair to her!"

"I know, Hiram. However, you can't just simply suppress news like this with money. The public's anger won't disappear until Rachel, the victim, comes out and says something in person. Besides, we have to show them that we've done something to make it up to Rachel. Just her words won't be enough, "

Said Joanna. Sometimes, they had to display their affection in public.

After all, no matter how good Hiram treated Rachel, people wouldn't know if Hiram didn't display it in public. The rumors were spreading, but they still had a chance to change the public opinion.

"Mom, I'll deal with it. You don't need to worry about it, " Hiram promised Joanna.

Joanna shook her head and said, "Hiram, I know you care about Rachel. And I think I owe her too.

However, she's a member of the Rong family now. If someone tries to destroy our dignity and fame, she will be affected too. We can only get through this if you two stick together!"

Right at that moment, Rachel walked into the office with a cup of hot milk in her hand.

"Mom, since you have an upset stomach, don't drink tea. I brought you milk, and it's still warm. Drink this instead!" Rachel said and put the milk on the desk in front of Joanna.

The hot summer had already passed. The weather was becoming cool. At her age, Joanna needed to take good care of herself.

Joanna smiled. She grabbed Rachel's arms and made her sit next to her. "Rachel, you're such a good daughter-in-law. We owe you a lot! I promise you that Hiram and I will treat you much better in the future. We'll make it up to you for your sacrifice."

Rachel shook her head and said, "Mom, don't say that. It's all over. Let's forget about it."

Joanna looked at Hiram and nodded her head. She said, "Rachel, we have a charity fundraising auction this Sunday. Would you like to go with Hiram?You'll be doing a good deed for those poor kids in the rural areas. Will you have time?"
