Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 72

"I remember that I once visited the Cornell's. I had thought Rachael was the daughter of a servant. But even she was, they should not be so fierce!"

"You saw it. What happened then?" The man who had spoken attracted all the attention.

He glanced at Shania and Alicia, stating, "I was in the living room. Although I didn't see it clearly, I could tell that Alicia was forcing Racheal into cooking. Racheal was only seven or eight years old!"

"Heavens, they actually let a child cook? It's inhuman!"

"More than cooking. If she was slow, Shania would abuse her! I still remember the bruise on her hands!" The middle-aged man's words arose the public anger. All of them glared at Shania and Alicia.

"I think Shania is a nasty piece of work. She actually doesn't restrain herself in public. It's enough to show how bad she was in private!"

"That's right. Dragon beget dragon. Alicia couldn't be nice, either. She looks delicate, but who knows what she is like in private? Otherwise, is there a need for such a big reaction? It's just a glass of juice. Does she mean to scold Racheal?"

Every word of the guests came to Marvin's ears. Marvin took a secret glance at Kieran, only to see his face cold. Marvin slapped the table hard, "What do you mean? Racheal just knocked down a glass of juice. Don't make a fuss about it. You made a fool of yourself!" Marvin shouted abuse at Shania.

"Darling, I...."

"Shut up! If you continue, just scram. Don't ask for trouble!" Marvin spat.

Shania went silent. But her glare was getting fiercer. I mentally wore a sneer and appeared to be more terrified. "Shania, I, I will never do that again. Please, don't get mad at me!"

"Racheal, it's OK. It's just a glass of juice. It doesn't matter!" Marvin comforted me and then turned to Alicia, "Alicia, don't be melodramatic. Racheal has always ignored your nastiness. Now it's your turn. Go change your clothes!"

After such a long while, Alicia had recovered from the shock. She shot me a cold glance and smiled at Marvin, "Dad, you really know how to joke. Of course, I know that Racheal didn't do it on purpose. Even if she did, I won't get angry. After all, we are sisters!"

"Alicia, I'm sorry. You are so nice!" I appeared to be touched.

"Racheal, don't be silly. We are sisters!" Then, she turned to Marlon, "Marlon, I hope you are not angry. Racheal didn't mean it. I'll go change clothes and be right back!"

Marlon's face was softened a little. But his gaze at me was still cold. I ignored him and took Alicia's hand, "Alicia, I'll accompany you!"

"No, Racheal. You should stay with Mr. Charles. Otherwise, he should be upset!" Alicia pulled her hand back with a smile.

"No, Alicia. You are pregnant. You should watch yourself!" I raised my voice. Sure enough, the looks of the guests present had changed. They had thought Alicia to be a kind and cute girl. Their attitude would definitely change now they knew that she conceived a baby before getting married.

"I told you, Alicia is a nasty piece of work. She is actually pregnant before marriage!"
