Chapter 137 Never Spoil A Woman Too Much
Chapter 137 Never Spoil A Woman Too Much
Hiram took out a box from his pocket and opened it. Nestled inside was a custom-made diamond ring
that he had ordered for Rachel one month ago.
This trip to America was also an opportunity for him to bring back a ring for her.
On the diamond ring were two exquisite R shaped strings of diamonds, which looked like a butterfly.
Such an outstanding design would certainly add to the beauty and elegance of this ring without
decreasing the comfort level of its wearer.
"Chad, is it possible for Rachel to be a dutiful wife and loving mother at home?" Hiram asked.
After thinking for a moment, Chad shook his head and answered, "I don't think so. It seems that Rachel
doesn't like to stay at home."
Taking their recent business trip to Cliff Mountain for example: unlike the usual ladies from decent
families who were unwilling to go to mountain areas, Rachel insisted on coming along with them.
Therefore, it could be said that Rachel wasn't the quiet type who would peacefully stay at home.
Moreover, it was not until Hiram asked him to investigate Rachel's whereabouts last night that he
surprisingly found out that Rachel had rented a studio. Since the studio had already been decorated, it
meant that Rachel wanted to start her own business.
Hiram closed the box and said, "Therefore, I want to release Rachel's full potential so that she can
achieve her goals, and be worthy of the title of my wife."
Chad then said with a nod, "That is very far-sighted of you. Indeed, only a capable woman would be
qualified to be your wife."
He remembered that Joanna, Hiram's mother, was also a very competent woman when she was
young.
As Hiram's family owned a century-old family business, many people eyed its wealth. Therefore, the
future wife of Hiram had to be capable and talented as well.
"By the way, where is your report on her whereabouts from yesterday?" Hiram said, as he sipped his
tea.
Chad nodded and began to report.
"What? She went out for dinner with Patrick at Moonlight Restaurant?"
Hiram shouted, raising his head from the documents. Then, Hiram narrowed his eyes and thought to
himself, 'Patrick?'.
"Yes, Patrick rented a studio in H city and would come to visit it almost every other day." Chad said
truthfully.
Hiram's face darkened with anger, when he heard Chad's words. This woman had told him nothing
about Patrick's renting a studio in H city and going out for dinner with him in private?
Perhaps, it was because he had spoiled her too much?
Patrick's intention to come to H city was very obvious, but why would Rachel go out for dinner with him
in private?
It was true that one should never spoil a woman too much.
While in the office, Rachel was still busy drawing the design.
Although Rachel's drawing skills were poor, she had finally finished a complete design after hours of
hard work. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Three hours had passed by quickly.
Suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open.
Daniel walked in with his arms held across his chest and looked at Rachel, asking, "Finished? Whether
it is finished or not, just give it to me now. I'm going out for lunch."
"Almost done! Almost done..."
Rachel said. She quickly made several touch-ups with the pencil before she stood up. She walked
towards Daniel and submitted her work, "Here you are."
Daniel looked at her. Then, he took the design and went out of the office.
When Daniel returned to his office, he sat on the chair with his legs crossed and then began to go over
Rachel's work. Although she drew very poorly, the experienced Daniel was still able to understand the
meaning of it.
Rachel waited beside Daniel for a while, but Daniel still made no responses. Although drawing the
design was time-consuming for her, it should have been easy for Daniel to understand the meaning of
it. Why did the checking process take so long?
"Erm, do I need to explain it to you?" Rachel asked impatiently as she was starting to feel hungry as
well.
Daniel raised his head and glanced at her. Then, he touched the ear stud on his left ear, as he always
did, and said to Rachel, "Hiram is waiting for you outside. You can leave now. I'll tell you the result of
the interview tomorrow."
"......"
Daniel's words made Rachel speechless. However, within seconds she was overwhelmed with
happiness, hearing the news of Hiram's return.
Rachel thought for a while and asked, "Tomorrow?
I thought it would be the next Monday."
"That rule is for other people. You are different." Daniel answered directly. Rachel's interview was an
exception. If not, then why would he bother to give this additional assignment to her.
"Okay, I'll be leaving now, "
Rachel said. Then, she left Daniel there and walked away.
It was a bit past mid noon, as the staff on this floor had already gone downstairs to the staff canteen for
lunch.
The whole floor was very quiet; so quiet that the only sound that could be heard was the sound of
computer's cooling fans.
When Rachel got outside the office, she immediately spotted Hiram, who was smoking by the window.
The blue and white stripped shirt that Hiram was wearing accentuated his figure nicely and the black
pants also highlighted his long legs. He was standing by the window and enjoying the beautiful city
view below.
Hiram looked outside, with one hand holding the cigarette and the other one on the window. His hair
was cut in short and neat; it resembled hairstyle of the hero in a popular cartoon.
Hiram was a man over thirty who had already gotten rid of his impetuous personality. What remained
was the reserved personality and the great charm.
It seemed like Hiram had been waiting there for a long time.
Rachel quietly tip-toed towards him.
She wanted to give him a surprise, but, before she could get near him, Hiram turned around and
surprised her.
"Don't smoke so much..." Rachel said.
After getting caught, Rachel felt embarrassed to hug him anymore. Instead, she took the cigarette from
his hand, snuffed the cigarette and put the stub into the ashtray next to him.
Hiram, however, wasn't angry at her rudeness. Instead, he just looked at Rachel tenderly, with eyes full
of love and longing for her.
Rachel's face would always bring out a feeling of strangeness in people. Her thin, long nose, her
pursed lips and her beautiful black eyes would always present different images of herself in people.
"All right, but I don't smoke that much regularly, " Hiram said. Then, he grabbed Rachel's hand and
said, "Let's go out for lunch. I have reserved a table for us at a restaurant."
Rachel felt very happier when Hiram dragged her towards the lift, and then she said to him, "I'm free
this afternoon. Do you have any appointments?"
"Yes. I'll have to go to the court." Hiram answered simply. Then, he got into the lift with her.
The moment Rachel got inside the lift, Hiram gave her a strong and warm hug. Although the lift was
going down, Rachel felt like her heart rate was going up.
It seemed that this man couldn't hide his feeling for her anymore. Hiram looked so reserved just a few
minutes ago.
Rachel didn't say anything. She just stood there quietly.
"Did you miss me?" Hiram asked. Then, he loosened his grip on her.
"No, I've been so busy every day, that I haven't had the time to miss you." Rachel answered with a
wink, intending to conceal her deep love and longing for him within a smile.
Upon hearing Rachel's words, Hiram gently pinched her waist and said, "I want to hear the truth."
