Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 94

Rachel held back her tears and pulled her hands out of Hiram's grip before getting out of the car. "Carl, send him home. It's already very late. And I have to go back to sleep too, " Rachel said to Carl.

Carl nodded his head before turning to Hiram, who was still sitting in the car, and asking, "Cousin, shall we go home now? Rachel is going to go home and sleep."

Staring at Rachel's back through the window of the car, Hiram faintly answered, "Yes."

Carl heaved a sigh of relief. He turned to Rachel, nodded and said, "Rachel, thank you. If you hadn't come down, I might have had to wander in the streets."

"See you, Carl. Drive safe on your way back, " Rachel said and headed back to her apartment.

Hiram stared longingly after Rachel until she disappeared from view.

The next day, Hiram woke up with a splitting headache.

Feeling dizzy, he opened his eyes. He looked around and touched the other side of the bed but it was empty. Why did he feel as if Rachel had come back? Had he drunk too much and imagined things?

"Cousin, are you awake?" Carl brought him a bowl of porridge.

When Carl was near enough, Hiram pulled his arm briskly and asked, "Was Rachel here last night?"

Carl blinked his eyes and replied quickly, "Of course not, why would she come here? Cousin, you were so drunk last night that you were crying for Rachel. You probably dreamed about her when you were asleep."

Carl didn't tell the truth, because he had promised Rachel that if Hiram had forgotten what had happened last night, he would just let it be.

Hiram released Carl, remembering that he had seen Rachel last night after all. The alluring woman who had sung on stage had turned out to be Rachel. After she had left the bar, he had stayed there and kept drinking until Carl had come to bring him home.

But he had been too drunk to remember anything that happened after that.

At Streams Company...

"Mr. Rong, Miss Cassie called for an appointment with you again. What should I tell her?" his secretary asked. Hiram continued working in silence.

After marking a note on his document, he answered, "No problem, let her choose the place. I'll be there on time."

For the fifteen days since Rachel left him, Hiram had tried to keep himself busy. Sometimes, he worked late. If there was no work, he asked people out and stayed out late with them. He was afraid to be alone.

Before meeting Rachel, he had been alone for a very long time, so he had been used to it. But after living with Rachel for just a month, being alone was a torture, especially at night. He felt like he couldn't take it anymore.

He always felt empty inside...except last night, when he had seen her again. It had seemed like his heart was complete again.

In one of the top hotels of H City, Cassie, who was a model, gracefully sat near the bar in the hotel room with two glasses of red wine in her hands. "Come on, Mr. Rong, let me give you a toast, " she said and passed one of the glasses to Hiram..

As usual, Hiram halfheartedly clinked his glass against hers and took a sip of the wine. He didn't feel anything different.

Looking at Hiram drink the wine, Cassie internally heaved a sigh of relief. After spending every night of the past week with Hiram, her pride had grown infinitely.

Everyone she knew envied her so much for getting the chance to hang out with Hiram.

However, no one knew the truth. Even though they were together every night, Hiram hadn't touched even her pinky finger.

Her close friend, May, had suggested drugging Hiram so that he would make a move on her. When a lonely man and a beautiful woman were alone together in a room, anything could happen. And besides, no man would be able to control himself after being drugged.

But as time went by, Cassie started to get anxious. The drug seemed to have no effect at all on Hiram.

It was obvious that she had underestimated his self-control.

What she didn't know was that over the years, Hiram had developed his self-control so much that it was almost comparable to the self-control of the monks.

So instead, she wondered if Hiram had any problems in that respect.

It was impossible, she decided immediately. He was the only heir to the Rong family and there hadn't been any such rumors about him before. So maybe it was because her dosage was too small?

She saw her chance when Hiram received a call. While he was answering his phone, she sprinkled all the remaining powder into his glass and stirred it without him noticing.
