Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 133

Rachel and Daniel's conversation was interrupted by an unpleasant voice that came out of nowhere.

Curiously, both Rachel and Daniel turned their heads to find out who it was, and that was when Daniel saw Patrick.

"When you said you were having dinner with a friend, did you mean Patrick Yan?" asked Daniel. He frowned and looked into Rachel's eyes waiting for her reply.

During the years he had worked for Hiram, Daniel had met most of his friends and enemies; Patrick was one of the enemies. Daniel was particularly impressed with Patrick because of his annoying nature, that was, his interest in taking other people's favorites.

Rachel shook her head and stood up. She turned to Patrick and said, "That was an exquisite dinner, but I cannot have another bite. I came out for some fresh air. Where is Celine?"

"She's waiting for you inside, " replied Patrick with a smile. He walked towards Rachel and when he got closer, he saw Daniel sitting opposite to Rachel. The smile on his face froze for a moment.

"Long time no see, Mr. Yan, "

Said Daniel as he stood up to greet Patrick.

Patrick nodded at Daniel and replied, "It has been a long time. How do you do, Mr. Zhuo?"

Daniel came from a humble family. In the recent years, his work with Hiram had earned him his noteworthy reputation amongst his peers. Together, they had obtained quite a lot of significant achievements in their fields. However, in the eyes of some people, Daniel was not their peer, but merely Hiram's follower.

"Look at the time, it's getting late; are we all done with our dinner? Mr. Yan, thank you for this wonderful dinner, but Celine and I would like to excuse ourselves for the night. We'd better go home now, " Rachel interrupted, when she noticed that the atmosphere in the room had turned brittle.

Patrick replied to her without hesitation, "Okay, then I'll go and fetch my car. Wait here."

"No, I mean we can go home by ourselves. Besides, we're going in the other direction. We don't want to bother you. I'm just going to go and get Celine; see you later." Rachel waved her hand to bid farewell to the both of them.

"It's no trouble at all, it would be my pleasure. I can't let you ladies go home by yourselves at this hour. It's not my style." Patrick raised his eye-brows and insisted, earnestly.

"Thank you, Mr. Yan, but our place is going to be out of your way. It'll be an unnecessary inconvenience. I'm just going to find Celine now." Rachel turned around and walked away, to look for Celine.

When Rachel and Celine came out together, Patrick was waiting for them at the door.

Daniel was out too.

Daniel made his way to Rachel and said to her, "Come with me, Rachel. We're going in the same direction. Let me give you a ride."

However, when Daniel walked towards Rachel, Patrick stepped forward and stood in front of Rachel.

"Wait, Mr. Zhuo. She came out to have dinner with me. I should be the one to send her home. I think you don't have to bother yourself with this, " said Patrick. Patrick put a cigar into his mouth and lit it up. He glanced at Daniel as he was blowing the smoke out.

Daniel's build seemed a little underwhelming compared to Patrick's gym-hardened body. However, Daniel's towering height gave his appearance a more commanding presence.

Daniel sneered at Patrick, "Rachel lives in Tulip Palace, and my apartment is just a few minutes away from hers. I'm driving Rachel to her home as a friend. I believe it's the responsibility of a friend."

Patrick glanced back at Daniel, scornfully. If Hiram were here, he wouldn't have dared to say a word. But Daniel, who was he? Why did he matter?

"Look, Daniel. I don't think it's your job to take Rachel back. You're working for Hiram, not for his woman, right? I don't think this is a part of your responsibilities, don't you agree?"

"Since you know that Rachel is Hiram's woman, do you think it would be appropriate for you to take her home?" Daniel retorted without any hesitation.

Both Daniel and Patrick knew clearly how many times Streams Company and Patrick's company had gone up against each other in the court. It was certainly bold of Patrick to drive Hiram's woman in his car. Did he mean to challenge Hiram's patience? But then why didn't he pick a time when Hiram would be around?

Everyone understood Patrick's perspective on women. He had always regarded women as material objects. Every woman who got on his car, wouldn't get off until he had taken her clothes off.

Even if Patrick wasn't dumb enough to put his hands on Rachel, it would be dangerous to let him take Rachel away like this. Daniel had made up his mind to help Rachel out at any cost.

"Ha Ha Ha, " Patrick laughed out loud. He rubbed his stubble covered chin and said, "I know you have quite a reputation among women. I take it that you fancy this girl, am I right?"

Patrick's words sounded sarcastic, but he managed to break through Daniel's defense, psychologically. He had specifically said those words on purpose to humiliate Daniel, as well as Hiram.

"Hiram is not only my boss, but also my friend. I respect Hiram, and I respect Rachel because she's Hiram's woman. They are both my friends. I think you may have some misunderstanding there. Perhaps, you've been smoking too much lately, and now it's starting to smoke up your judgment." Daniel contradicted him cleverly with a sarcastic smile on his face.

Celine was confused about what they were talking about. What was all the fuss about? Why were they arguing about who should drive Rachel back home?

"Rachel, what's going on? And where did this handsome man come from?" asked Celine.
