Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 213

After thinking it over, she walked towards Hiram and put her arms around his neck. "Honey, can I not go to the gathering this time? I'll definitely go next year!

Please!" she pleaded.

Hiram held her hand and whispered gently," No way, honey. Since everyone already knows you're my wife, you have to come with me."

"Uhh..." Rachel lowered her head and said listlessly," But I'll be nervous."

Hiram smiled gently. He rubbed her hair and comforted her," You'll have to meet them sooner or later, and I think the sooner the better, so that you'll be familiar with them. Just come and greet them.

Besides, I'll be with you the whole time."

Rachel sighed and said," But I'm sure I'll get pulled into a group of women. Since women are born to be talkative, I'll have a hard time facing so many of them. On top of that, it's a party full of your relatives. Even if they say something unpleasant, you can't stand up for me and risk offending them."

'If that happens, I'll have to rely on myself, ' Rachel thought.

"Honey! You'd better go into the room and change your clothes now instead of worrying about what might happen at the party. The makeup artist has arrived. Call her in when you're ready," Hiram said and sighed internally.

He knew that Rachel needed experience in facing these kinds of situations on her own, even if she was reluctant to do it.

Once she overcame her psychological barriers, it would become easy for her.

Rachel walked into the suite and looked at the dress that was neatly placed on the bed. Taking a deep breath, she thought to herself, 'Rachel, since you have to go to the party, you should face it bravely. The worst they'll do is gossip about you or argue with you. There's nothing to be afraid of.

Just put on a brave front and show them how great you are.'

Feeling motivated enough, she began to change her clothes.

When she was done and waiting with Hiram to finish getting her makeup done, Hearst walked in.

Glancing at Rachel, he pulled a chair and sat opposite Hiram. "Hiram, can you do me a favor and ask Rachel to come to our next family party instead?

Before you got married, I brought you up as an excuse every time my mom nagged at me to get married. But now, if you bring Rachel to the party, my mom won't stop torturing me."

Hiram replied coldly," You deserve it! So many girls are crazy about you, but all you do is sleep with them and never take responsibility after. It's time to find yourself a wife so that you won't keep messing around."

Hearst felt a headache coming on. He put his hand on his forehead and turned to Rachel, who was sitting on the sofa.

He smiled and said," Rachel, the women of the Rong family are very annoying. They're especially fond of gossip. If you show up at the party, I'm sure they'll keep talking to you and drive you crazy!"

Rachel's eyebrows were being penciled. When she heard Hearst's words, she glanced at him and said," So what do you propose?"

"It's better if you just don't go. You can ask Hiram to tell them that you're not feeling well. What do you think?" Hearst suggested, smiling broadly.

Rachel laughed. She held up the mirror and looked at her eyebrows. "You just told me that they're fond of gossip. If I don't show up at the party, won't they all say that I don't dare to face them?"

Hearst didn't know how to reply. He combed his hair with his fingers and then sat on the sofa next to Rachel. 'This couple is really stubborn!' he thought.

After everything was ready, Hiram changed his clothes, and then they set out.

"Where are we going? You seem to be driving on a different route." Looking at the strange scenery outside the window, Rachel thought, 'The Rong family's house is already very big. Is it still not able to accommodate all the family members?'

"Rachel, we're driving to a seaside cruise ship where our party will be held. Everyone has arrived except us," Chad explained to her while driving.

Rachel looked at Hiram, who was resting his head with his eyes closed. He hadn't had any rest since work that morning. "Hiram, will we come back tonight?" Rachel asked.

Hiram opened his eyes and looked at her with a smile. "What's wrong? You're looking forward to coming back home before we even reach the party?"

"Nothing. I'm just wondering. I want to know what our plans are, at least," Rachel mumbled. The truth was, she still had some unfinished work when she left the office, and she wanted to complete it as soon as possible. She didn't want to be given special treatment just because she was Hiram's wife.

"We'll stay on the cruise ship tonight and go to work tomorrow morning," Hiram said, pulling her close to him and closing his eyes again.

It was about five in the evening when they arrived at the seashore.

It was already dark outside. The light grey sky looked like a huge cloud hanging over the sea.

Rachel was a little surprised. 'What a big family it is! They even have to hold their family party on such a huge cruise ship!' she thought.

"Give me your hand." Hiram reached out to Rachel.

Rachel held his hand firmly and carefully walked onto the cruise ship in her heels.

Chad and Hearst soon caught up with them.

It seemed the Rong family members were accustomed to such lavish parties. They were familiar with how to walk onto a cruise ship.

"This cruise ship is ours. We usually rent it out and use the money for its maintenance and repairs. Occasionally, we use it to host the guests of our family." Instead of bringing Rachel to the party immediately, Hiram stood with her on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze.

Rachel was still wondering about what he had said just now. She looked at the handsome man standing beside her and asked," You mean the cruise ship is yours?"

"Yes. But what's mine is yours. Since the party is going to be held on our cruise ship, why should we feel nervous?" Hiram turned to her with a smile, holding her hand firmly.

"Really? You mean I can ask anyone who annoys me to leave?" Rachel asked, laughing incredulously.

Hiram nodded and said," Yes."

They had hardly taken a few steps forward when they heard someone calling them. "Hiram! Rachel! Wait for me!"

Lifting her long skirt up, Susan shook Shirley Fang's hand off and ran over. She shouted," Hey, Shirley! The party is for the Rong family members. Are you following me and trying to make trouble again?"

"Come on, Susan. I'm not going to make any trouble. I came here just to have fun. Besides, there are so many people here at the party, so it's not a big deal if there's just one more person. Am I right?" Shirley came over, following Susan.

She looked at Hiram and Rachel with a fake smile and nodded to them in greeting.

Susan walked away from Shirley and towards Rachel. She smiled and said," Rachel, you look gorgeous today! You must be the most beautiful woman at the party. Hiram will be proud of you!"

Hiram glanced at them, then let go of Rachel's hand and walked into the cruise ship ahead of them.

Shirley came over immediately and followed close behind Rachel and Susan. Since she was an outsider, she had to follow the Rong family members closely, or she would be too conspicuous.

Rachel was astonished when she stepped into the cruise ship.

What a huge number of people!
