Have I Told You Lately

Chapter 94: There will still be Space if We Cuddle to Each Other

“As long as it doesn’t get into your way, why should you care about him?” Geoffrey frowned. Kenneth

walked at the front with a frigid look. He stated with a calm voice, “He’s suddenly expanded his territory

to City N and he looked for Vantage Inc. when there are still many more companies out there. I couldn’t

help but suspect that.” Of course, the main thing was Ogden had been paying too much attention to

Rachel until he suspected the reason he looked for Vantage Inc. was because of Rachel.

Geoffrey smacked his lips and said, “Didn’t he start his business through internet? Although the

company of your wife is not considered as very great, it’s still counted as a leading company among the

internet service companies in City N. If his judgment is far worse than yours, he won’t be able to have

the status he has today.” He paused and suddenly smiled. He then looked at him with a playful look.

“Could it possibly be that…the reason he goes to City N to look for Vantage Inc. concerns you? Even if

he’s fallen in love with you he should be a woman, or could it be he’s gay?”

Kenneth glimpsed at him coldly. He squinted and rumbled, “He’s followed me the moment I opened a

branch company there. With such great speed, do you think he’s planned it in just one day?” Geoffrey

pouted and chuckled. “The reason you open the branch company is to win a woman’s heart, as for why

does he go there, even if it’s because of Dragon Age, it’s not the first time to see such a business

competition, and I think there’s no need for you to be that suspicious.”

Kenneth fell into silence. He took a lighter, lighted up a cigarette and smoked. The lingering smoke had

hidden away the profound look on his face. Could it be it was him being too suspicious that he thought

Ogden had laid his eyes on Rachel?

…

In the hospital, after finishing arranging the tasks, Rachel closed her notebook and took her phone to

glimpse at the time. Her lips were slowly pursed. Did he really dump her here? Had he not thought that

she was angry too when he was angry? Fine, it’s better that he left, she would be discharged tomorrow

morning. She bit her lip and tossed the phone to the side. She took the blanket and lied down.

The night was dark and it was even quieter in the hospital. Although the hospital was bright with

lightings, the white furnishings made the surroundings looked even more desolate and lack of warmth.

Not knowing how long had passed, Rachel who was sleeping while covering her face heard the sound

of the door unlocking in a daze. She went completely awake as if her mind was triggered but she did

not make a move. Her hands clenched into fists under the blanket and she suppressed her breathing

when she paid attention to the commotion outside. Had he come back? Was he not angry anymore?

As she was secretly making conjectures, the room went bright at once. The man pulled the blanket

down a little to show her face. His movement was gentle and his fingers inevitably touched her face.

The warm texture had inexplicably lightened up her anxious mood which had lasted for the whole night.

Yet she suddenly wrinkled her eyebrows. She slowly opened her eyes pretending that she was just

awake and stared at the handsome face above. She muttered in surprise, “You’ve smoked?” Although

the smell was very faint, to her who had used to smoke back then, she still managed to discern the

faint smell of tobacco at once. What made her surprised was he had never smoked before, and she

was curious of his whereabouts just now.

Kenneth did not expect her to wake up so suddenly. His hand froze in the air when he intended to

touch her face. He retrieved his hand without her notice the next moment and said gently, “I’m sorry, I’ll

wash my hands later.”

Rachel frowned and asked, “When have you started to smoke?” Feeling startled, he then let out an airy

smile. “I’m a man, not a boy, isn’t smoking a normal thing?”

“Is it? Then why did you restrict me when I smoked back then?”

“I won’t get admitted to the hospital because of smoking and drinking alcohol like you.”

Rachel choked. Afraid that she would get mad again, Kenneth rubbed the hair on her forehead and

said softly, “Do have a sleep, I won’t bother you anymore.” Rachel gazed at him at length and finally

asked the question she kept having in mind, “Why did you come back again?” With the doctors and

nurses here, nothing would happen to her. Why did he still come back after having left for such a long

time? The man tilted his head and chuckled softly. “If I dump a pregnant woman here, the police would

probably come to my office tomorrow.”

Rachel stared straight at his face without any facial expression. A thoughtful look flashed across

Kenneth’s face and he sat down beside her. He looked at her uncannily. “Alright, I’ve always been at

the hospital, where should I go if not here?” Rachel was shocked and a mixed expression appeared on

her face. “You’ve…always been at the hospital?”

“Uh-huh, Geoffrey came just now. I came back late because we had a talk downstairs. Sorry to make

you worry.” Rachel fell into silence. With her face flushed, she stammered, “I, I’m not worried. Stop

being self-important.” Kenneth replied blandly with a serious look, “Uh-huh, you’re not worried. It’s just

that you’ve been tossing and turning and could not fall asleep until now.”

Rachel went speechless. Not knowing whether she had gone rage due to feeling embarrassed or what,

she pulled a long face and sneered. “You’ve been more and more shameless recently. I’ve been so

busy the whole night that I didn’t even have time to think of my mother, why would I even think of you?”

She then frowned in disgust. “You smell really bad, hurry up and get out of here, I want to sleep.”

Kenneth slightly wrinkled his eyebrows, but he still stood up once more and nodded lightly. “Alright,

have a sleep, and follow me to the company tomorrow.” Rachel was startled and she fell into silence for

a while. She then spoke with a change in her tone of voice, “Kenneth Shawn, you wait here. When

have I ever promised you to go to the company with you tomorrow?” Kenneth glanced at her with a

surprised and aggrieved look. “Haven’t you already promised Mr. Lopez?” Rachel retorted

apprehensively, “That’s because you tricked me.”

“But if you don’t go, how should we report our work progress to Mr. Lopez once we return?”

“You…” Rachel choked. She stared at him and felt that the smile on his handsome face made him

looked like a devil. Why had he become like this? Where had the Kenneth Shawn who was once aloof,

distant and taciturn been? Or was it because she had not truly known him until now?

Kenneth glanced at her flushed face and she was looking at him with loathsome eyes. Gazing at her

delicate features, excitement simmered inside him and his Adam’s apple rolled. He coaxed, “If you

don’t want to let Mr. Lopez know about something, the best thing you could do is to go to Dragon Age

and have a look yourself. Get a sleep, I’ll bring you there tomorrow morning.”

“Ken…” Rachel still wanted to say something yet she noticed him abruptly stooped and his handsome

face approached her. Her mind went blank due to shock. “Rach, you’ve been talkative, is it because

you don’t want me to leave?” His breaths were hot, and his eyes were deep and misty. He rumbled,

“Although the bed is a bit small, I think there will still be some space if we cuddle to each other, you…”

“You, you wish!” The rhythms of Rachel’s heartbeat were disrupted and she quickly chimed in. She ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

turned her head away to evade his eyes and scolded with panic, “Get lost!” Kenneth’s eyes went

gloomy at once and he suddenly wrenched her face towards him. He lowered his head and kissed her

on the lips. Rachel moaned and her eyes widened.
