Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 232 Divorce Her For Us

Except for Rachel, Hiram had never hung out with any of other women. He knew, however, that he

couldn't control himself in front of her, at least before all of his natural desires were met.

Hiram got on top of her before she had the chance to say anything more.

The next day came by swiftly, as per usual.

Rachel woke up with the rise of the sun, and found Hiram to be long gone.

Rubbing her eyes, she got out of bed, and put on her slippers. Heading to the bathroom, she quickly

stopped as though she forgot something. Dangling in her thoughts for a second, she went back to her

room and grabbed the pregnancy test stick that was left on the table the night before.

After completing the test, she waited a few minutes to review the result.

Sitting on the close-stool, she saw it had turned pink as her urine was absorbed. Two lines were

displayed on the test stick. She looked at it, wondering what it meant.

Then, she remembered that she didn't read the instructions carefully. It was the very first time she had

taken a pregnancy test.

She picked up the pregnancy test stick's package from the trashcan and began reading it.

When she saw that two lines meant she was pregnant, Rachel couldn't help but scream at the top of

her lungs! Yes, she was indeed pregnant.

She had her breakfast quickly before rushing to the Streams Building, where Hiram worked.

She wanted to tell Hiram as soon as possible.

Rachel headed directly to the president office when she got to the building.

Unfortunately, Chad stopped her before she was able to knock on the door.

"Rachel, hold on please! The chairman of the board is inside at the moment, and he said he didn't want

to be disturbed." Chad explained.

Rachel nodded and said she would wait outside until Hiram was available. She quickly took a seat,

waiting impatiently.

Inside the office, Hiram was having a serious discussion with his father.

Gazing at him, who was sitting on the chair in front of his desk, Hiram frowned and asked,"Dad, do you

have any evidence to prove what you just said?"

"Evidence, my boy? No! Listen, it happened more than twenty years ago. Even the river was drained

long before I knew. How could I find any evidence there now?" Gavin replied, patting the desk

repeatedly.

"Hiram, you know you own father, right? Have you ever seen me give anyone a bad name for no

reason? It's not something I find pleasure in doing. It is true that Rachel's parents were involved in your

aunt's death, and what more is, they should be held responsible for it!

After all these years, I have finally discovered the truth. A witness said that she saw Landy together

with Fannie before she died, quarreling fiercely, and then Fannie aggressively pushed Landy into the

river. I suppose Fannie might not have done it on purpose, but it was still she who pushed your aunt

into the river. She should be held liable for it!"

Gavin shook his head miserably and continued,"That woman is really something! How could she marry

her daughter into our family after doing something so awful to our family?

Listen to me, Hiram, there are a lot of nice women all over the world. Women other than Rachel... I

know that Lydia and Shirley made you feel disheartened from finding another woman, but I believe that

there are lots of great women waiting in line to marry you.

Besides, you and Rachel have been married for six months, and yet she isn't even able to get

pregnant. Think it over, son. What if she is entirely unable to give birth to a child within the next few

years? I will not allow this. You will have children!" Gavin exclaimed to Hiram.

Hiram said one word after the other, with his brows suggesting a rather serious response and his eyes

growing darker,"Dad, as I said before, what happened is in the past, and I don't want anything that

happened in the past to have an effect on our current life. I will not condone it!

I love Rachel, and I love both mom and you. My only wish is that we can all live happily together and

forget everything that has happened before. We should shift our focus to the future."

Hearing what Hiram had said, Gavin smashed his cup on the desk and shouted,"Listen to me, it's not

about something insignificant. It's about the cause of you aunt's death! That is extremely serious!

They owe us a life! How could I accept their daughter as my daughter-in-law whatsoever? That is

preposterous!

I've discussed this with your mom before coming to see you. We will find you another wife, whether you

like or not. Please accept this result! Above all else, please bid your deceased aunt a favor! Divorce her

for us now. Will you, Hiram?"

Hiram forced a smile on his face, looking at the ring on his left hand, and said in a lowered and content

voice,"Dad, marriage isn't a game, you know. It's a promise. I promised Rachel that I would love her for

a lifetime, and never break my word to her. She'll be my only wife in this lifetime, and if you disagree, I

can take her away from H City. I can promise that you won't see her again from this moment forward."

Gavin shook his head and stated coldly,"Do you think you can solve our problems in this manner?

You're my only son, and even if I don't ever see her again, I can still be informed about all the things

around her, right?"

Hiram was infuriated. He felt that he couldn't stand his father's words any longer and in his anger, he

said loudly,"Then, father wants me to do something utterly impossible. Rachel is my wife and that will

never change. You said I had to marry her before, and I did as you told me, but look where we are now.

Now... now you want me to divorce her! Remember, I am your son and not some type of machine that

will do whatever you ask.

I don't want to talk anymore, father! Please leave me alone and go home. I've got too much work to do

today!"

After making himself clear, Hiram called Chad,"Chad, come in here! Please send my father home for

me immediately!"

Chad, who had been waiting outside the office nervously, opened the door immediately. When Chad

opened the door, Gavin saw Rachel waiting for Hiram.

Rachel stood completely still, as she realized that it was impossible for her to ignore their argument

about her. She suddenly regretted standing too close to the door.

Glancing at Rachel, Gavin didn't say a word and headed to the elevator instead.

Rachel took a deep breath and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes. She felt nothing but hurt now by

everything she had heard.

'What did he say before he left?

He wanted Hiram to divorce me!

Why? What happened? I'm so confused.'

She recalled that nothing had happened between Gavin and her since his return. Then, why did he ask

Hiram to divorce her so abruptly?

Rachel wondered if she had done something wrong. Her mind went completely blank, and she couldn't

help but cry out loud.

Hiram was standing at the window with his back facing the door. His heart was hurt, as he heard

Rachel sobbing outside of his office. He turned to her right away, suddenly worried about her, and

asked,"Honey? Why are you here? When did you arrive?"

He rushed to Rachel and held her hand. Then he closed the door behind them afterleading her inside

his office.

Rachel looked up at him, deep into his deep shimmering eyes, and suddenly asked,"Tell me why! Why

did your father want you to divorce me? Did I do something wrong? What could I possible have done to

make him feel you must divorce me?"

"No, not at all. There's nothing to worry about! You're my wife, and I'm the one you'll spend your life

with, not them. No one on this earth can ever convince me to leave you. I promised you. Remember?"

Hiram said and held Rachel in his arms tightly. His eyes were determined, assuring her of his

commitment to keep and protect her. He had already made up his mind about the course of his life,

which would be spent with her.

Rachel was his wife, and he wouldn't allow anything bad to affect her ever again.

Shivering, Rachel recalled Gavin's expression before he left. He made it seem like he would never lay

his eyes on her again.

'What is his reason for hating me as much as he does?' she wondered.

"Hiram, tell me. Is it about Landy's death? I need to know." Rachel asked her question seriously, which Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

took her husband by surprise. She couldn't indeed think of other reason why Gavin would be so angry

with her.

Gavin seemed to have forgotten about Landy's death recently. However, he approached his son in an

unforgivable manner. Rachel thoroughly believed that it must have had something to do with her death.

Hiram sighed. Touching her cheek, he firmly said,"It doesn't matter anymore. What happened in the

past has passed. Am I correct?"

He had been trying his best to keep the truth from his father during the last few days, but it had reached

him anyway. Hiram had no idea where his father heard the news. He started to scroll through his mind,

searching for an answer.

Gavin insisted that Landy's death was caused by Fannie, who pushed her into the river, when they

were settling a dispute with one another.

As he explained to Hiram, it was not only Rachel's father who got involved in Landy's death, but her

mother as well. Fannie also had something to do with it, which made matters seem even worse.

"It doesn't matter? Perhaps we can put it all aside, but what about your father? I don't think that he will

ever be able to get over it. He doesn't seem like he could just forget about things like this."Rachel said,

placing her hand on her belly. "Oh no. What will he think of my baby? Will he refuse to accept his own

grandchild?"

"Excuse me? What are you talking about?" Hiram asked as he heard Rachel's words, raising his

eyebrows in shock.

Rachel lowered her head and replied,"I said what about our baby. Will he refuse to see it after it is

born?"

Hiram took a second to gather exactly what she was implying. His dark-colored eyes suddenly became

brighter as he came to terms with what she just said. He quickly grabbed her by the shoulders,

asking,"What are you talking about? Tell me again, and please be clear this time!"
