Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 97 Honey, Let's Talk

Rachel felt embarrassed when Hiram came closer and proceeded to take a look at the two cars that

were in 'close contact'.

"Sorry, I crashed your car..." She said to Hiram, with her head bowed.

This was not an unexpected accident, but God's plan.

Almost all the cars in the parking lot had already left at this point. Rachel had not followed the traffic

rule and had driven directly across the parking spaces. This led to an embarrassing car accident.

"Good morning, Mr. Rong!"

The security guard said. Then, he pointed at Rachel. "It's her. I saw her bump into your car! If you want

to check the surveillance video, I can fetch the tape for you!"

The security guard said humbly, as if he was trying to do his bit to help to resolve this 'terrible' accident.

However, Hiram seemed not to hear these words and went straight to Rachel. He looked at her and

found that she was safe and sound. But he still felt worried and asked, "Are you alright?"

Rachel nodded her head in the affirmative to reassure him. She couldn't have hurt herself as she just

started the car and the poor car was not that powerful.

"Give me the key, " commanded Hiram, staring at the car key in Rachel's hand, and reached out his

hand.

Rachel said nothing and gave him the key.

Then, Hiram tossed the key to Carl and ordered, "You drive that car!"

Carl agreed and immediately got into the Santana and reversed it on to the main road of the parking

lot.

Hiram then went over to his own car, opened the door of the passenger seat and said to Rachel, "Get

in the car and I'll give you a ride. Carl will drive your car back."

A reluctant Rachel looked at the Santana and said to Hiram, "Just let Carl take me back

In case something bad happens."

"Then, how would he get back? And who would send the car to the repair center later?" Hiram retorted.

Then, he tilted his chin as a signal to suggest that she enter the car quickly.

Rachel said nothing and got into his car.

Hiram, silently fastened her seat belt. He then closed her door and settled in to the driver's seat on the

other side of the car.

The security guard was left open-mouthed in the middle of the parking lot.

The security guard stood there in shock. He was confused about what just had happened and couldn't

understand why Rachel had got such a good treatment after she bumped into a luxury car.

It suddenly occurred to him that the Santana should pay the parking fee as there was no check-in

information of the car. Then, he shouted, "Ah, wait. You haven't paid the parking fee yet!"

However, the Santana was long gone.

Hiram drove Rachel towards her neighborhood. Hiram drove at a low speed so that Carl could keep

pace with him.

Carl arrived soon after them.

When Hiram and Rachel reached her neighborhood, Rachel immediately spotted that Wilson had been

waiting anxiously outside his house for her to return his car. She quickly got out of the car, rushed to

him and apologized, "Wilson, I am so sorry. My driving was so bad that I bumped your car hood. I am

really sorry." Rachel took the car key from Carl and handed it to Wilson.

Wilson looked at his car, and then glanced at the dented car door of the Maybach. He shook his head

and said, "My car is no big deal. It's old and defunct anyway. But the other car's owner has also come

because of your mistake. Emm, things are getting complicated..... Em.....sorry, I have an urgent errand

to run. Would you excuse me?"

Hiram winked at Carl, and Carl immediately walked toward Wilson.

Carl took out a large stack of cash, put it into Wilson's hand and said, "Sir, this money is the

compensation for the repair of your car and for the delay. Please take it."

"It's...It's..." Totally shocked, Wilson stared at the money and thought to himself, 'This money is even

more than the money he had spent when he bought the car.' Then, he exclaimed, "It's way too much!

It's enough to buy a new one!" Wilson waved his hands, trying to refuse the offering. He did not have

the nerve to take the money.

"Then, buy a new one, " Carl said. Then, he patted away Wilson's hands, nodded at him and stepped

back behind Hiram.

Rachel looked at Hiram and said nothing, for whatever she could say at that moment would be

meaningless.

She turned around and headed for her apartment.

When she got back home, the first thing she did was to pour herself a glass of cold water.

Then, she took out a pill from the drawer. Just as she was preparing to put it in her mouth, the door of

her room was kicked open.

Hiram had come in behind her as well. He looked around the room and eventually fixed his eyes on the

glass and the pill she was holding.

Rachel turned away from Hiram, put the pill into her mouth and gulped it down.

The situation had been so critical last night that she had forgotten to take contraceptive measures.

Therefore, she had to take the pill, just in case.

When Rachel put the glass on the table, she felt someone approach her, and in seconds found herself

being hugged by someone from behind. "Hiram, you'd better go to the hospital to have your cuts

bandaged. Don't waste any time here, " Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Rachel said to Hiram. Although she had already bandaged his cuts earlier, Hiram had 'worked' so hard

on her last night that his cuts bled again. After all, these cuts were not slight injuries, even though he

didn't care much about them.

"Just a moment. I'm leaving soon." Hiram said, "Honey, let's talk."

He hoped that Rachel might have calmed down after these days.

"OK, but let me go first, " Rachel said. While she was talking, she looked back at Hiram who had put

his head on her shoulder, and thought to herself, 'This man is so heavy.'

Hearing these words, Hiram immediately stood straight, turned her around to face himself and said, "I

admit that we were a little bit impulsive before. But, I think we should calm down and consider what to

do in the future."

"We? In the future?" Rachel sadly shook her head and said with a smile, "Hiram, don't forget that we

have already been divorced. We are done. The reason I came to save you last night was totally

because of the money... and because you are my ex-husband. If you mistake it for a change of heart, I

will not come to save you the next time, no matter how serious the trouble you are in."

Hiram looked at Rachel and squinted his eyes. Only this woman in the world could have the nerve to

break her promise to him and scold him like this after she had taken his money.

"Really? Don't forget, we are still married before we get the divorce certificate. Do you really think that

we are actually done?" Hiram retorted.

It was true that Rachel had totally forgotten the matter as she had been busy looking after Fannie in the

past few days. "Then, we should take some time to settle this matter, " Rachel said.

"Do you think it is an appropriate time now? Regardless of my family, how will you explain it to your

mother?" Hiram looked at her and asked with a smile.

"Why isn't it appropriate?" Rachel retorted. After all, choosing whether to be married or divorced was

her own business.

"OK." Hiram came near Rachel and said, "Let's deal with this some other day. No, today. I will go to XH

village in person, apologize to your mother and clarify everything. Then, you won't have to pretend

anymore."

Rachel was struck dumb by Hiram's words. Then, she looked away and said, "Not yet, my mother has

not fully recovered. What if she becomes angry and hurts herself again? We can register the divorce

certificate, and not tell her about it."

"Why? Then, we'd better register the divorce certificate after she fully recovers from the injury. In that

case, she can at least see that you and I are still in love, which will also be good for her recovery, "

Hiram said. He looked at Rachel with a smile on his face, as if he had already found her weakness.

"Hiram, you..." Rachel said angrily.

"If you don't want to do it for me, then you should do it for the money that I gave you. Otherwise, you

should return the money too..." Hiram said.

"No way!"

Rachel said in angry. Seriously? She got divorced without any reason, and Hiram was actually asking

her to return the money? No way!

"Huh, it's even better, " Hiram said. He had expected that she wouldn't be willing to return the money.

Anyone wouldn't willingly return such a large amount of money, let alone the smart and clever girl that

Rachel was.

Only someone foolish would return the money.

Of course, Hiram didn't mean it. No matter what Rachel really cared about was, his well-being or his

money, Hiram was satisfied to see that she still cared about him.

"My mother has been urging me to take you home for dinner and I have already refused her several

times. I will ask Carl to pick you up tonight. Let's go back home together, "

Hiram paused and then said.
