Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 178

"Rachel, I'm back. Where are you? I wanna talk to you." It was Celine on the other end of the phone. She called Rachel as soon as she got off the plane.

"Okay, I'm just getting off from work. Let's meet at the usual place!" Rachel took all her stuff and walked towards the elevator.

In a milk tea store on an old street in H City.

Celine had bought a lot of presents for Rachel on her trip. Rachel was moved when she saw them.

"This is a local snack. It's really good. I bought it for Aunt Fannie! Both of you should try it! And this is a handmade handbag. Isn't it cute? I bought two of these. One for you…"

Celine kept showing Rachel her purchases. "Of course, these are nothing compared to what you gave me last time. But you know, it's the thought that counts. And you know how much I earn!"

Moved by Celine's presents, Rachel smiled warmly and said, "All right, stop giving me presents, Celine. These are enough.

As long as you bring me something, I know that you care about me. You don't have to buy me so many things. We're friends. This is too much!"

Celine winked at Rachel and said, "You're right. We're friends. So take all these things with you. Most of them are snacks, nothing expensive, really!"

Rachel sighed and nodded her head.

Suddenly, something occurred to Celine. She stood up and grabbed Rachel's arms. "Oh, right! Since I was on the business trip, I only heard about your kidnap days later! Oh my gosh! Are you okay?"

Rachel couldn't help laughing. "Celine, come on. Who on earth are you talking to if I'm not doing okay?"

"Right, right. However, Hiram is such an asshole! How could he choose to save his scheming sister and abandon you!" Celine was mad at Hiram and she felt sorry for Rachel. "I mean, Lydia isn't even his biological sister. And she's always pretending like she's weak to win people's sympathy. Why did Hiram save her?

You know what? When I found out that he chose Lydia over you, I was really really mad at him! Hiram is a smart guy. Why can't he see what kind of person Lydia is?"

Rachel took a sip of her milk tea. She rested her chin on her hands and looked at Celine, who looked more attractive when she was angry.

Not noticing Rachel, Celine continued, "I'm confused. Why didn't the kidnappers just shoot Lydia? Weren't they trying to take revenge? Why would they kidnap you? You're just a so-called daughter-in-law. You and Hiram haven't even had a wedding. What the hell did they get out of kidnapping you?"

Celine was so angry that the straw in her hand was bent out of shape. "I used to hear people say that being married into a rich family is tough. It seems that they're right. I always assumed that they were talking about fights or arguments between the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law. But look at you! You almost lost your life! That's crazy!

So…what are you going to do now? Don't tell me that you're forgiving him! Let me tell you, Rachel. We can't do that. We have to draw a line." Celine finally stopped talking.

Rachel took another sip of her milk tea and said, "I'm spilting up with him now."

Celine nodded her head. And then she asked, "Wait, spilt up? Did he ever come to your house and try to win you back?"

"What? You just said we have to draw a line, " Rachel said, smiling at Celine.

"Yeah, I said that. But…he did nothing? I mean, if he really wants you back, he should try everything to win you back. After all, he made a terrible mistake. He has to do something!"

Celine was much more worried than Rachel.

Rachel thought over Celine's words.

Moving her desk into his office. Did that count? Asking her to have lunch made by his great chef with him every day. Did that count? Driving her home every night and watching her with his loving eyes before leaving. Did that count?

While Rachel was lost in thought, Celine's face turned gloomy. "Really? Does he…does he really not care about you anymore?

People always say that men are fond of the new and tired of the old. Is Hiram tired of you?"

Rachel waved her hands and stopped Celine from talking. "Celine, it's not like that. Hiram isn't that kind of person. He's serious about the relationship."

"Really? I mean, you got lucky this time and managed to come home safe. What if you hadn't?" Celine bit her lips and continued, "What if you hadn't made it? I don't believe he wouldn't marry someone else. And a couple of years later, he would completely forget about you!"

Rachel was silent. She hadn't thought about that.

"How about this? Ask him this question on WeChat right now. Let's see his answer, " Celine said, coming up with a solution to her own question.

Rachel shook her head and said, "What's the point of asking him questions like that?"
