Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 192

It was already 11 p.m. when Rachel got back to her bedroom. Fortunately, it was Saturday tomorrow, which meant that she could wake up late the next morning since she didn't have to go to work.

Hiram went to the gym upstairs to exercise as usual. About 30 minutes later, he came down and saw the light in Rachel's room was still on.

"Rachel, are you sleeping?" asked Hiram, knocking on the door.

As Rachel was hesitating whether to answer him, he knocked again. "No, what do you want? I won't open the door for you. You're not allowed to sleep on my bed before you hand in the repentance letter, " replied Rachel finally.

She wasn't sleepy yet. Right now, she was lying on her bed, eating snacks and watching a TV series on her iPad. She rarely had time to herself, so she planned to relax. Tomorrow, she'd have to prepare for the auction on Sunday.

"I just want to come in to take a look at you. Open the door."

"No way. This is one of your usual tricks. Don't try to fool me. I know that once I open the door and let you in, you won't leave easily. If you really have something to say to me, just say it at the door. I can hear you, "

Called Rachel to the door, refusing to be persuaded.

Hiram stood with folded arms outside the door, trying to think of another way to get in. It seemed that Rachel had learned the wisdom of coping with him and wasn't going to fall for his usual tricks.

"I've never broken my word to you, and I've never used tricks on you, " he finally said.

Slightly irritated, Rachel turned off her iPad screen and walked toward the door, countering, "How dare you say that? You're all talk. As for your evil deeds, do you want me to list them out one by one?"

"Nonsense. Give me one example of an evil deed, " replied Hiram, Sniggering as he pulled a key out of his pocket and inserted it into the keyhole.

"Well, prepare yourself. The first one is when we first met, you recognized me but you acted like you didn't." Rachel was lost in thought recollecting the past that she didn't notice what Hiram was doing. Then you set a trap for me and forced me to compromise. You're a double-faced man, worse than a liar."

"Anything else?"

Asked Hiram, turning the key.

"You're mean and you have no sense of shame. You..."

Rachel, who was fully enjoying making accusations against Hiram, paused suddenly at the sound of the door opening. When she turned to it, the handsome and mischievous face of Hiram came into sight.

"I've put away all the keys. Where did you get that one?" Rachel asked in surprise, noticing the key in the keyhole.

She clearly remembered that she had stored all the keys and locked them in the cabinet in her bedroom.

"It's just a key. If you want, I can give you one more, " replied Hiram casually, walking to the bed with his hands in his pockets.

When he pulled back the quilt, he saw a big pink cartoon cat pattern right in the middle of the bed. Rachel had changed the bed sheet into a pink one. He stopped walking, struggling with himself.

Hiram, with his mature personality, was really not accustomed to sleeping on a bed decorated in such a girlish style.

"You'd better go back to your own room. I don't think you'll sleep well here." Seeing the man's awkward reaction, Rachel couldn't help laughing as she walked back to her bed to resume watching the TV series.

She always liked pink bedding, but normally, she had to accommodate herself to Hiram's likes. Now that she had the chance to sleep alone for a few days, she could furnish her bed as she liked.

After some hesitation, Hiram sat down on the bed beside Rachel. He wasn't going to leave Rachel to her own enjoyment.

"Never mind. I'll imagine that this is my future daughter's room, then I can accept it easier, " said Hiram to Rachel as well as himself.

'He is really a thick-skinned man, ' thought Rachel to herself. She raised her head and cast a glance at Hiram, pushing him over with her elbow silently.

Then she went on watching her series.

Hiram sat silently, watching together with her. "The leading man's name is Clare Pei; I know him. He was my classmate when I was at college, and he's currently shooting a film at a film and television base affiliated with Streams Company. If you want to see him in person, I can arrange that, " said Hiram suddenly.

"Really?" exclaimed Rachel in an excited voice, at the same time taking a snack and lifting it to Hiram's mouth to please him.

"Yes, Why would I lie?"
