Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 52

Hiram also opened his arms to embrace her. "Anya, you've become even more beautiful now."

"Really? I'm glad that you're actually complimenting me." With her hands around his waist, Anya wore a sweet smile on her fair face and said, "After you called yesterday and told me that you're coming, I started to make the necessary preparations. I've gotten everything ready according to your liking."

Rachel watched them embracing. Even though it was the etiquette, they hadn't let go of each other for quite a while.

It seemed that Hiram had a lot of female friends who could be found everywhere.

Joanna had once said that Hiram never got close to women, but Rachel was beginning to wonder how true that was.

Rachel interrupted them with a cough. "Excuse me, where's the bathroom?" she asked.

Since she'd slept the whole way on the plane and had gotten into the car immediately after that, she hadn't gotten a chance to go to the bathroom.

But now, she could barely hold it in.

"Hiram, when did you change your secretary?" Anya asked, glancing at Rachel before turning back to Hiram.

Instead of answering her, Hiram turned to Carl, who was standing behind him, and said, "Take her to the bathroom."

Anya understood that he didn't intend to answer her question, so she didn't press him about it. Anya and Hiram entered Streams Garden with their arms linked together. "After lunch, let's go target shooting. You can help me check whether I've made any progress or not, " she said.

"Okay, though I'm sure that you must have made progress since you're so smart, "

Hiram praised her encouragingly. Before the marriage, he used to come to Streams Garden every once in a while for a two-day stay. Anya had majored in financial management abroad, and he'd managed to convince her to come here to work for him. She was good at managing the business. The Streams Garden was so far ahead of all the other companies in its industry.

After lunch, since Rachel didn't feel tired thanks to her long nap on the plane, she accompanied Hiram to the meadow.

It was only after she arrived there that she found out what was in the meadow.

It was a shooting range where people could shoot arrows at targets.

She'd once found Hiram's trophy in his study, so she knew that Hiram liked archery. Today, she could get a good chance to watch him shooting.

She was wearing a jersey T-shirt, a thin coat and a cap to protect her face from the sun. She caught sight of Anya, who had also just reached the meadow.

The colors of Anya's hair and eyes were the same as the westerners', but people would assume that she was from an eastern country at the sight of her facial features if they didn't notice her eyes.

Rachel noticed that Anya was wearing a blue tennis skirt, a pair of gloves and white sneakers. She had long slender legs which made her look very attractive. She went up to the target and fetched the small, exquisite bow and arrow from the server behind her.

Considering Anya was doing all these things skillfully, Rachel guessed that she wasn't a beginner.

Hiram walked up to Anya and they started to talk about something.

After a while, Anya bent a bow and the red arrow she was holding suddenly shot towards the bull's eye of the target.

She jumped for joy as she hit the bull's eye.

"Let's have a competition, okay?" Anya smilingly said to Hiram, fiddling with the bow in her hands.

"Okay. What are the rules of the competition?" Hiram seemed to be in a good mood. He took his own bow and drew it several times.

"Great! If you win the game, I keep you company tonight! If I win, you keep my company tonight!" Anya said with a mischievous smile while placing her elbow on Hiram's shoulder. She was a straightforward person and always spoke bluntly.

Hiram wordlessly lifted an arrow, rested it against the bow and slowly bent the bow with his right hand. After aiming the arrow at the target, he decisively shot the arrow.

The arrow quickly flew towards the target. Rachel was so surprised to see that that she forgot to chew the snacks in her mouth. She ended up swallowing only saliva when she saw Hiram's arrow directly penetrate Anya's.
