Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 369

"Let's go hunting now," Hiram replied.

"Hunting? I thought that hunting has long been forbidden!" Rachel mumbled as she sipped her milk. Most of the wild animals were now government protected, and game hunting had become almost obsolete.

Hiram shook his head and said,"No, there are animals raised solely for hunting. It's totally legal."

Rachel grunted. She knew that Hiram was a good shooter. He must really love this game even though not many people still engaged in this sport nowadays.

He glanced at his wife, who was sitting beside him. He was trying his best to stay with her because of what she was going through.

She had been trying to be normal in front of him, but he could see the misery in her eyes. She was always absentminded or forgetting what she was doing.

Popping the last piece of bread into her mouth, Rachel sipped the rest of the milk and then took a piece of tissue to wipe her lips. "My mom told me that Luke visited her the other day," she said.

Fannie looked better when she visited her and it was apparent that Luke had already talked to her.

"He's been working on a bail for Fannie, and I believe that she'll be out in a couple of days. So, don't worry, honey! Things are getting better." Hiram grabbed her hands to comfort her.

"Thank you, honey! All I want is for her to stay with me and live a peaceful life together. She's getting old and I want to spend more time with her as much as I can. I promise that I won't blame Dad for what happened. As long as he stops, I'll move on as if nothing happened." Rachel said as she lowered her head.

If Gavin could get rid of his stubbornness, it would be possible for her to accept him as her father-in-law like before.

"Honey, don't think about it too much. I really don't care about what my father is thinking now." Hiram said softly in his attractive voice.

"I know that he can't understand it even if I try to talk to him. But do you know what's on my mind? I think that it's our family that owes your family a lot. And Aunt Landy's death could have been a punishment from God.

This is what I believe. Although my father may be unable to think as I do, he will someday."

Hiram thought that God sent Rachel to his side so that he could treat her well as a compensation for the wrongs that the Rong family had made long ago.

Rachel looked at Hiram and smiled, saying,"Honey, it's very kind of you to tell me that. To be honest, I'm feeling better now. Thank you!"

She could drop all her grudges as long as her mom could get out of prison.

Besides, she was fully aware that her mom had always been magnanimous to the Rong Family no matter what they did or said to her.

They arrived at the hunting grounds.

This was the first time Rachel had ever stepped into such a place.

Although there were all kinds of the most advanced firearms, Hiram chose to use bows and arrows.

Taking for granted that it would be like what she had seen on the TV, Rachel was excited at first, until she saw Hiram shoot a small grey hare, which was running, darting from bush to bush to escape the hunters. Her excitement quickly vanished.

"Stop it, Hiram! Could you spare it and just go for another target? It's adorable! And now you're killing it!" She was horrified at what just happened.

Hares were being raised for shooting and weren't protected animals. Nonetheless, It was still cruel to shoot them down.

Hiram raised his eyebrows and gave up on the hare. Instead, he aimed at a pheasant.

"No, no! Look, you almost hurt its wing, and I think it needs its wings to fly!" Rachel screamed, blocking Hiram's way.
