Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 47 He Doesn't Love You At All

After hearing what Fannie said, Rachel got nothing to reply. Fannie didn't know that even though

Rachel and Hiram were living together, They didn't do any Husband-and-Wife thing yet. Except for

some unconscious touches.

The marriage was just a contract. They didn't take it seriously at all.

"Mom, can you stop messing around? The wedding should be postponed a little longer. We haven't

been with each other for long enough, " Rachel said. Rachel still remembered the moment in the

hospital when Hiram blamed her about Fannie forcing them to get married. He thought that Rachel

urged her mother to do so.

She was worried that if her mom insisted about the wedding again, Hiram would get irritated.

"I'm not messing around. Rachel, what are you worried about? You have to have your wedding as soon

as possible. This is for your own good, " Fannie answered.

"Alright, as soon as I arrive in the city, I will visit you first. I have not seen you for many days. I'm really

concerned about you, " Fannie continued. The voice of Fannie sounded like she missed Rachel so

much. Before Rachel got married, Rachel had lived alone. Fannie could easily go to Rachel and stay

with her for a few days anytime.

But since she moved into Hiram's house, they could hardly see each other.

Hearing Fannie's words that was full of concern for her, Rachel held back what she was about to

complain.

Rachel knew that whatever Fannie did or said, it was always for Rachel.

Rachel came back home immediately after shopping in the supermarket.

Rachel intended to cook something nice so she and Hiram could discuss their wedding while having

their dinner. She hoped they could find out a way to handle the situation.

Rachel, in her floral apron, was so busy in their kitchen.

After she finished preparing all the cooking materials, she found out that it was 6 pm already.

It was just in time for her to start cooking. Rachel took out the pickled meat and her mother's secret

sauce. Then she started cooking.

She heard the sound of door opening from the living room just after she finished cooking the two

dishes.

She looked at the clock that was on the wall and saw that it was just 6:20 pm. 'Hiram got home earlier

today', she thought.

"Hiram Rong. Are you back already? Please wait a little longer. I need some more time to finish this, "

Rachel shouted. However, she didn't hear the sound of footsteps of a man, but the tickling sound of

high heels.

She was so confused. Who was that?

Who else had the pass code of this villa other than Hiram?

She was wondering who it was. She turned the stove off, dried her hands and walked towards the living

room.

Then she saw a woman standing in the center of the living room.

Rachel easily recognized her.

"How are you Lydia? You are here just in time. I'm cooking for our dinner. Can you stay here for a while

and have dinner with us?" Rachel asked.

The woman who stood in the living room was nobody but her 'rival', Lydia Rong.

Lydia looked at Rachel who was just wearing her home clothes. Her beautiful eyes were full of

desolation.

It was the moment when Lydia saw a woman doing what she always wanted to do - living in the house

of her brother Hiram and cooking while waiting for him to come back home. She had always longed for

it since she was still very young.

But now, she saw her dreams being realized by another woman.

Rachel felt that she had been thoroughly scanned by Lydia, from the flip-flops on her feet to the cartoon

printed house clothes that was covered by the apron.

She also wore a wide, pink, hair band. Rachel put on the band intentionally. She was afraid to be

blamed by Hiram for the hairs falling to the dishes.

Lydia looked at Rachel weirdly. It made Rachel very uncomfortable.

"Please take a seat." Rachel offered.

But suddenly, Lydia knelt on the beige floor tiles with her long hair hanging down covering her beautiful

face and sadly begged, "Rachel, I'm begging you. Can you please give Hiram back to me?" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Rachel was shocked by what just happened. She quickly moved towards Lydia, pulled her up and said,

"Please, don't do that. Lydia, if there's anything I can do to help you, just tell me. Please don't kneel

down, " Rachel said.

She tried to hold Lydia up. But Lydia was so stubborn and pushed Rachel's hands away. Lydia with

tears on her cheek, kept saying, "I won't get up unless you promise me you will leave him.

I know you and Hiram just met one month ago. And you just married him because of the agreement

between Rong family and Ruan family that was made around 100 years ago.

I know Hiram. He can't easily fall in love with someone. So, I don't think he's fallen in love with you in

such a short time. The marriage between the two of you is not because of your real feelings."

Lydia's voice, added by her tears dropping continuously, sounded so sad and clear. It kept tingling into

Rachel's ears.

"Hiram will never love you and you two will never be happy in each other's company. So I beg you to

please leave him." Lydia kept screaming.

Rachel didn't know how to comfort Lydia.

Rachel had, indeed, just spent a short time with him. She thought that Lydia could understand him

better than her.

"Can you stop being with him? He's just so obedient to his parents, and treasure them so much. That's

why he didn't refuse when his parents asked him to marry you.

Hiram's parents always respect his own decisions. They haven't forcefully commanded him to do

anything before. But for your sake, his parents forced him about your marriage. He must be very

depressed about that.

Rachel, he does not love you. How long can your marriage go without love?"

Lydia spoke clearly even when her voice was trembling.

Rachel kept quiet for a while. Then she brought her a box of tissues and said, "Stop crying and wipe

your tears. Look, your make up is almost ruined by your tears."

Lydia was surprised and didn't know how to react after Rachel passed her the tissues. Shouldn't she be

angry with what she just said?

"Your brother will be home very soon. You can tell him those words the moment he arrive here. If he

agree to it, I will not interfere with his decisions." Rachel said with a smile on her face. There was no

trace of sadness on her face at all.

Her marriage with Hiram was nothing but an agreement. So when Lydia said that, it meant nothing to

Rachel. She had thought about all the possible results in her mind already.

Whether their agreement will be terminated sooner or not, she didn't care. She would be fine with

anything.

Her reaction stunned Lydia who was so confused and said, "Rachel… You... How could you react like

that?"

Rachel's reaction did not only confuse Lydia but also made her feel very uncomfortable. It seemed like

what she had just said was all bullshit. Rachel was supposed to be angry. But why wasn't she?

It would be better if Rachel slapped her face, so Lydia could accuse her for it when Hiram arrived

home.

"Alright, hurry up. Get up and clean yourself in the washing room. Hiram said he would be back home

before 7 pm. I don't think you want him to see you like this." She pulled Lydia up while saying those

words.

Then Lydia finally stood up. Her eyes were full of surprise and confusion. Soon, she asked, "Rachel tell

me, are you serious with what you just said? Or aren't you obsessed with Hiram?"

"In our relationship, Hiram is always the one in control. Even our marriage is all up to him. He decides

everything. What I just have to do is to accept and cooperate. Nothing more, nothing else." Rachel

answered calmly and peacefully.

Their marriage would just last for less than a month. It was not necessary to fight with other woman for

a man that wouldn't belong to her forever. To Rachel, she preferred to solve problems with mutual

understanding and peace.

"What did you say? You mean, Hiram wanted to marry you with his own will? No, I won't believe that!"

Lydia said.

She felt so shocked after she heard what Rachel said.

How ridiculous. Hiram was so arrogant. Why would he insist to marry a woman who had nothing?

And when it came to beauty, her figure and even her elegance were nothing compared to Lydia.

If it was Rachel who eagerly wanted to marry Hiram, she could accept it. After all, there were many

women who wanted to marry Hiram.

But if it was Hiram who insisted to marry Rachel, Lydia could hardly accept it.

Because Lydia knew that if Hiram really loved Rachel, she had no reason to fight at all.

"You don't believe me? Okay. I will tell you that ..." Rachel answered.

Before Rachel could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Hiram who just arrived.

"What are you two doing here?" Hiram asked.
