Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 34

Hiram had ripped her dress apart audibly. Before Rachel had time to look down at it, she felt herself being pulled tightly to his strong wide chest. She was pulled with so much force that her whole body seemed to ram into his.

"I'll say it again for the last time: no, I haven't touched anyone before. What happened last night was just by instinct. Are you going to believe it or not? I didn't even know what I was doing!"

Hiram growled as he hugged Rachel with his shirtless body.

Rachel was completely frozen, not even trying to break out of the embrace. Even though the embrace made her breathless and his sheer strength frightened her, she just stood there.

Her thoughts were a mess. 'He had his arm on my chest last night, but now? What's going on?'

"I believe you. Just let me go, " Rachel said, biting her lip. The new and strange feeling she was having really unsettled her.

She felt slightly dizzy. Maybe it was because his embrace had knocked the air out of her.

Reality finally hit Hiram, and his anger faded away slowly. He pulled the thin quilt aside and covered her. "From now on, keep in mind that never argue with me right after I wake up. I can't promise that things won't be worse if you do that again."

He got up and went straight to the bathroom, leaving Rachel wrapped up in bed.

Rachel ducked under the quilt and looked at her nightdress. It had been torn beyond repair. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before taking off the nightdress and throwing it into the trash. Then, she went to the closet to find something to wear.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. "Hiram? Rachel? Are you both up? Hurry up. Come out for breakfast!"

Rachel, who had just put on some clothes, strode quickly to the door and opened it.

Joanna saw that Rachel was already dressed, so she walked in and looked around the room. "Rachel, where is Hiram?"

"He, erm... He's still in the bathroom!" Rachel answered without quite meeting Joanna's eyes, pretending to pick up the bag hanging on the wall.

'What's wrong with Hiram?

He usually washes up very quickly. What's taking him so long today?' Joanna thought to herself.

"Oh! Why did you throw the nightdress away? It's newly bought."

Joanna had personally selected the nightdress for Rachel, so she knew it very well. She went over to the trash to take a look.

"Mom, please don't..."

Rachel tried to stop Joanna but it was too late, so she just covered her eyes with hands.

"Wow. It's all torn up. There's even a hole near the chest. Hiram was too aggressive, " Joanna said as she threw the clothes back.

Then she turned to Rachel, who was obviously embarrassed, and said as if nothing had happened, "Come on, hurry up. Remind Hiram to come out for breakfast!"

After Joanna left the room, Rachel stared at the nightdress that had ruined her innocence and purity with spiteful eyes. She had only two nightdresses here; one was destroyed and the other didn't suit her, which meant that she need to bring her own nightdresses next time.

Finally, the bathroom door opened. Rachel turned towards the chief culprit with malicious eyes.

But...

"Why aren't you wearing your clothes?" Rachel said uneasily as she quickly averted her eyes. Hiram was naked. Rachel picked up her bag and walked out as she said, "Mom told you to come out for breakfast as soon as possible. Hurry up. They're waiting for us."

Hiram stared after Rachel as she left, wiping his hair with a towel. His bath towel had dropped to the bathroom floor accidentally, so he'd just thrown it directly. That's why he'd waited until his mother left to come out of the bathroom.
