Chapter 191 The Wife Of Streams Company’s President
Rachel was suddenly pushed by someone and fell on the ground.
Oh, it hurt so much!
All the directors inside, who were toasting, talking and laughing, suddenly turned their attention to her.
Rachel bore the pain and stood up from the ground. She noticed that the back of her elbow was
wounded. Although there was a thin carpet on the ground, her fall had been nasty, so a part of her skin
was rubbed off.
"Hey, aren't you Hiram's lover?" Violet shouted out with surprise, recognizing her.
At that moment, Hiram, who had had his eyes closed after drinking too much, Immediately stood up
and rushed to her.
He glared at the man who had accidentally pushed her down. "Let me check your wound. Does it hurt?
We need to take care of it soon." He examined her wound with a trace of sorrow in his eyes. Then, he
whispered in her ear, "Since you're here, propose a toast now, then we can leave."
After all, so many directors were present here. She had to follow the etiquette.
Rachel peeked at the people sitting on the sofa and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
She walked towards them with a gentle smile on her face.
"Good evening, directors and managers. I'm really sorry for interrupting you! I was just passing by after
having dinner with my colleagues, but that director accidentally knocked me into the room. I think he
has had too much to drink and probably didn't see me, " she said lightly. "Sorry again for disturbing you
all."
She smiled again, picked up a clean wine glass and poured some wine inside. "I'm Rachel Ruan. This
is to show my sincere apology."
"Rachel Ruan? Are you that mysterious Mrs. Rong?" a director asked in astonishment after listening to
her self introduction.
He was familiar with her name, but he had never expected that the woman in front of him would turn
out to be the famous woman.
"Am I different from how you imagined?" Rachel asked teasingly and laughed.
"No, I didn't expect Mrs. Rong to be such a smart and beautiful woman. Hiram, if it weren't for this
accident, we still wouldn't have gotten to see your beautiful wife!"
He pretended to blame Hiram with a smile.
Hiram held Rachel's waist and said calmly, "Yes, it is my fault. I'll propose a toast with Rachel!" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Rachel looked at him, and they both picked up their wine glasses at the same time.
Violet was stunned. She had never imagined that this little girl was actually the famous Mrs. Rong.
She couldn't believe it. The little girl who was in front of her was the wife of Streams Company's
president.
What surprised her even more was that in spite of the situation, there was no panic on Rachel's face.
Instead, she spoke clearly, and explained the reason of accidentally entering the room in just a few
words.
"Miss Feng, how nice to meet you again." Rachel put down the wine glass and smiled at Violet.
Violet stood up and reached her hand out to her. "I am really sorry, Mrs. Rong. The last time I met you,
I was too reckless. Please let me introduce myself again. My name is Violet Feng, and I've worked with
Mr. Rong on several projects."
Rachel politely shook hands with her, then winked at Hiram, indicating that he should introduce
everyone else to her.
"Directors and managers, I am sorry. Rachel is injured, so I have to take her outside to treat the wound,
" Hiram said calmly. He bowed slightly to them before walking out of the VIP room, holding Rachel's
shoulders.
"Hiram… is it okay for you to leave halfway?"
Rachel was uncertain whether it was okay for him to act like that.
"It's nothing. I already gave them company for so many hours. Let's go. There is a pharmacy
downstairs. We have to deal with your wound first, " Hiram said firmly, pulling her towards the corridor.
When they neared the elevator, they saw Daniel, who was wandering around.
He seemed to be a little nervous, like he was looking for something. When he saw Rachel appear with
Hiram, he seemed to be relieved. "Hiram?"
"I need to take her downstairs right now, " Hiram said abruptly, pulling her into the elevator.
Daniel's eyes focused on Rachel for a few seconds, then he waved his hand slowly at the both of them.
"Be careful."
They went to the pharmacy to get some medicinal liquor and a band-aid, which they put on Rachel's
wound. Then, they got into their car.
Hiram looked at her and asked cautiously, "You came out with Daniel?"
Chad was driving the car while Rachel and him were sitting in the back seat. "Well, yes, along with a
few of our colleagues."
Rachel paused, and asked him hesitantly, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
"Uh... Do you want me to be jealous?" Hiram asked, in the same cautious tone.
Chad watched the both of them through the rear view mirror.
He couldn't help but be curious about how Hiram would deal with such a problem.
If Daniel liked Rachel, what was Hiram going to do?
Chad had some ideas about how Hiram would respond.
Rachel thought for a moment, then said seriously, "Daniel and I are friends until death, now and in the
future."
When she had been in trouble, it was Daniel who saved her, so she would consider him her friend
forever.
Meanwhile, Hiram was relieved. It was bad enough that Daniel had been the one who saved her and
not him. So when the two of them had gone for the special training together, it had made him feel
uneasy.
Till now, he hadn't been able to do anything about it. But the more he tried to suppress his feelings, the
more they seemed to bubble up to the surface.
He knew the only way they could go away was for Rachel to clarify her relationship with Daniel. Now
that she had referred to him as a friend, Hiram could rest easy.
"Well, since he saved your life, I will always be grateful to him. And I'm glad that he brought you back to
me safely. So I regard him as my life-long friend too!" Hiram gently held her hand.
Rachel looked at him, smiled and leaned against his shoulder. "Okay. Right, how about your ten-
thousand-word statement?"
When she mentioned that, Hiram, who had looked calm, suddenly frowned and looked out of the
window.
When Rachel saw the sudden change in his expression, she immediately straightened up. She had to
draw the line right now. If he hadn't completed the statement, she wouldn't reconcile with him.
"Um, 10, 000 words would take more than a dozen sheets of paper... You know that Hiram is so busy at
work… How could he spare so much time to write that? How about writing five thousand words?"
Chad asked tentatively. Last time, his girlfriend had asked him to write a thousand words, and he had
scratched his head a dozen times and thought over it for a few days before writing them down.
"Chad, you don't have to plead on my behalf. Since I've made a promise, I will keep it." Hiram turned
back to her and grabbed her hand. "Give me some time. I'm going to be busy the next two days."
"Well, no problem. After you write it down, I will let you enter my room at night, " Rachel said with a
smile.
The car pulled into the villa, And Rachel got off.
"Mom..." Rachel walked towards Fannie and helped her walk to her room. "Mom, don't wait for me next
time. Go to sleep!"
"I have a lot of spare time every day, and I don't feel tired. I can only fall asleep after seeing you come
back, " Fannie said with a smile. Then she turned to look at Hiram, who was walking towards the door.
"Hiram, you must be tired after a day's work. Good night."
"Okay, Mom, good night." Hiram peeked at Rachel, who was accompanying Fannie to her bedroom,
and wondered about how to get her forgiveness.
Although he hadn't written that statement, he still wanted to share a bed with her. But what should he
do? He had to think about it.
