Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 401

Rachel left her table and headed for the entrance. As the sea breeze blew through the door, she felt the chill all over her body. She threw her sweater on and her cap over her head. She crossed her arms and walk out with a slouch, trying to stay warm.

It was normal for the wind to be stronger in places near the sea.

Looking down, she didn't see the man coming in and brushing past her as she was going through the door. It was Hiram.

His eyes swept across the whole lobby the moment he walked inside like a hovering eagle. Luck wasn't on his side failing to see the familiar figure of his wife.

Ever since Rachel ran away, he had developed the habit of checking any room or place, upon stepping in, hopping to find her there.

"Hiram, let's have breakfast first. Then we can resume after." Carl said to Hiram, who was now standing in the middle of the lobby. He had followed Hiram all the way from H City.

Hiram nodded his head slightly and walked to the dining hall followed by Carl.

Meanwhile, the fierce fight of the two women came to an end as Marlon left abruptly.

Regardless of how hot the battle was, Marlon stood up and walked towards the exit. He couldn't wait to leave this place of trouble.

"Wait, Marlon Xi! Where are you going now?" Eve shouted from behind. She no longer wanted to fight the other woman seeing that Marlon had left.

On the beach, Rachel took off her shoes and walked along the beach barefoot.

In the softness of the wet sand, she left a footprint after another, which were quickly washed away by the waves.

Not long after, she noticed a man approaching her. She raised her head and realized that it was Marlon.

"There you are! You're the most carefree person I have ever known. What can I say? I admire your attitude toward life, and I myself couldn't do the same... as your boss!" Marlon continued, as Rachel said nothing. He stretched himself for a while and then stripped off his clothes, revealing his well toned body. He wanted to go for a morning swim.

"Yeah! I guess that you're torn between two women. No, let me correct myself. You're caught in a web of many women, am I right?" Rachel mocked him. She bent over and picked up a shell from the sand.

Marlon was about to walk into the water but stopped when he heard what she said. He turned to look at her,"Come on! Is that all you know about me? I am Marlon Xi! I am twenty-seven years old, and I claim my right and freedom to go out with as many different girls as I want!" He declared as if giving a speech to the world.

"Listen, my engagement with Eve was arranged by the elders of our families, not us. You know what? I've never even slept with her! Why should I be stuck with her? It doesn't make any sense!"

He swept back his hair in the sea breeze and shook his head disapprovingly. He then turned around and continued walking down to the water.

Glancing at him, Rachel shook her head with a smile on her face. She walked away from where the waves were touching the sand and sat on a safe spot away from the splashing water. She started playing with the shell she just picked up. It was beautiful with brown loops arranged in interesting rings and patterns.

Suddenly, she noticed that a couple of men walked out of the hotel and felt something familiar about them. But it was quite a distance and she dismissed her hunch about who those people might be. She knew no one else in this city except Marlon, who was now swimming in the sea.

The sea breeze had grown stronger than when she first came outside and she stood up, preparing to go back to her room at the hotel.

Seeing Rachel starting to walk towards the hotel, Marlon popped out from the water and shouted at her,"Hey there! How could you leave like this? Did you forget that your boss was swimming in the sea now?"

Rachel waved her hand to him and left. Nobody asked him to jump into the cold water so early in the morning, only to show off his body.

When she returned to the hotel, she glanced at the dining hall and found that both Eve and the other woman had gone. She guessed that they must be embarrassed to stay here after such a big fight.

When Marlon returned from his swim, Rachel went to his room to find him.

"What will you do next? Are we staying here? Since your beautiful partner has gone, I think we should leave too. What do you think?" she asked.

Marlon was sitting on the sofa playing video games with his legs crossed. He replied without moving his eyes from his game,"No, since we're already here, we are not leaving until Monday."

Seeing him busy with his game and utterly too distracted to talk to her, Rachel said,"Fine, call me if you have anything. I'm going to take a nap in my room." Then she turned around and left.

When she returned to her room, she threw herself onto the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep. Having nothing to do, she opened the TV.

At noon, she went to the dining hall to have lunch alone and then she went back to her room to take a nap.
