Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 43 Time To Reveal The Whole Truth

Hiram took a glance at the director who seemed to read his mind. The director called Sandy and

Manager Zhang even before Hiram made that order. So Hiram thought that he was capable; he was

very satisfied with what he had done.

Only Hiram and Rachel were sitting inside the big conference room. Other people were just waiting

outside and did not dare to come in. They were all too frightened to be in the same room with Hiram.

"How would you thank me for this?" Hiram asked. He took the tea cup in front of him, blew it, and finally

took a sip.

But after a moment, he frowned. It seemed that the tea was too strong for him.

Rachel had no mood for tea at all. She put her two hands on her cheeks. She just looked at Hiram and

did not answer.

"If I didn't come here, how would you handle this? You're just nobody here. So even if you think you

can explain it well, no one will believe you. The rumor will ruin your reputation inevitably." Hiram put

down the tea cup and said those words gently.

They all knew that the harm caused by rumor would never disappear, even if the truth was finally

revealed.

After all, human's mind is the most unpredictable.

"Then, tell me. How can I thank you for your goodness?" Rachel kept her hands on her cheeks. She

looked at the man who had always been so confident with himself on everything. It seemed that the

word 'failure' was never in his dictionary. He always got what he wanted.

Just like the kidnapping incident that just happened two days ago, she eventually figured out that Hiram

was just trying to irritate Jay, the kidnapper, on purpose at that time.

It seemed like he already knew that Jay wouldn't do anything harmful to her before he could get the

money from Hiram. Therefore, Jay couldn't do anything but wait.

And when she was rescued on the road, there was no sign of panic on his face at all. It took her long

time to figure it out.

"Quit your job here. Join my company and work for me. Don't you think it's better to work for your

husband than for others?" Hiram said with his hand playing with her long pony tail. He thought she was

so capable, so why not work for him?

Hiram said those words seriously. But Rachel could't help herself from laughing and replied, "You

should better not forget, we had an agreement. The Marriage contract is only valid for one month. To

be exact, the contract has just 20 days left."

Hiram frowned after hearing her words. He pulled her hair unconsciously which hurt Rachel. It made

her clench her teeth.

"Even if our contract expires, as long as you have the ability to make profits, I can promise you good

position in the company. We'd better be conscious in separating our public from private interests. I can

surely do it. How about you?"

Rachel kneaded her scalp to ease the pain. It really hurt. She angrily stared at him and said, "You hurt

me! I just don't want to be linked with you."

"Be linked with me? Don't you think it's much better if we keep that secret agreement between the two

of us and pretend to be a couple as long as we can? At least you can decide the date to confess it to

your mother."

He took his hand off her soft, long, sweet-scented hair while he talked to her.

Hiram's words really hit Rachel's heart deeply. In fact, she was worried on how to explain the situation

to Fannie. She didn't have any good idea in mind yet.

"You better think about my suggestion thoroughly, " Hiram said. After a while, Hiram's phone rang. He

looked at his vibrating phone and got up from the chair. Then he walked towards the window and

answered the phone.

Not so long, the door of the conference room opened again.

The executive director, and the managers of the company including Walter came in one by one.

"Mr. Rong, Rachel, Sandy has arrived. Should we call her in?" The executive director asked.

Hiram didn't say any words and looked at the door. The director quickly turned his head to the door and

said, "Sandy, come in."

Sandy was very nervous while waiting outside. She faked being sick to stay at home. But manager

Wang went to her family personally to ask her to go to the company. It made her very anxious.

She couldn't help but tremble as she pulled the door open.

On her way to the company, Walter briefly introduced her the situation. She was too shocked and

confused to accept the truth that Rachel was married to Mr. Rong, who was from the most powerful

family of H city. She was confused and thought, 'How can Hiram Rong be Rachel's husband?'

"Ms. Zhang, thank God you're here. Please take your seat." Rachel said as she saw Sandy came in.

Meanwhile, her hand was holding Hiram's hand under the table. Then she whispered to him, "Just sit

here. Let me be the one to ask her. Would that be okay?"

After all, that was her own problem. She wanted to handle it by herself. As to Hiram, being with her was

already a huge favor for her. He didn't need to do anything else at all, she thought.

"Sure." Hiram whispered. He also held her hand and pinched her tiny palm.

Rachel thought he was taking advantage of her with that simple action again. She didn't care about it

though. Then she looked at Sandy who took her seat already.

Before Rachel could say anything, Sandy asked first.

"Manager, what's the matter? Is there anything wrong?" Her face looked so confused and innocent.

The director held back what Walter was about to say and spoke first.

"The problem is that, as soon as we got back to work this morning, there was rumor spread all over our

company. It has greatly affected our daily actions. We're also worried that the result may get worse,

and will bring huge damage to our company. We have decided to investigate it thoroughly before things

get worse. We hope that everything will be clear, so that we can give both of you justice.

There is a rumor that Rachel has an improper relationship with Manager Zhang. It's been said that their

sales performance for this month is because of that. Manager Wang from our Sales Department said

that it was you who reported this to him personally.

So we invited you here to explain all of these to us honestly."

The director said logically. Then he turned to Walter and said, "Manager Wang, did I say anything

wrong?"

Walter coughed to clear his voice, he nodded his head and said, "No. Sandy, tell them again what you

have told me."

Sandy clutched her sweaty hands under the table. How could she dare to retell the story under such

circumstance?

She had no idea before that Rachel was married already. She even never thought that her husband

was Hiram - the most powerful man in H city.

That time, if she insisted that Rachel had inappropriate relationship with Manager Zhang, it would be a

huge insult for Mr. Rong. She had no courage to insult him.

"Well, manager, to be honest, I heard the rumor from my friend. She said that Rachel went inside a

hotel with Manager Zhang. After that, the sales performance of Team A grew rapidly. Then, everyone

guessed that it might be because of some under-the-table deal. So..."

Sandy answered without too much confidence at all. She tried her best to make her words not so

subjective as before. What she wanted right now was to get herself out of this and make someone else

take the responsibility for her.

"Really? Do you mean you didn't see it yourself?" She was acting so strange. The director could easily

tell that she was probably lying.

No. She was definitely lying.

As Mr. Rong's wife, why would Rachel fawn on a 40-50 years old man just for the sales performance?

The rumor was nothing but a ridicule.

Sandy just put her head down and didn't answer. Her silence could tell everything.

With Sandy's hesitations, there were hundreds of emotions in Rachel's heart. She even tried to

convince Sandy to stop her relationship with Mr. Zhang before, because it was wrong. She had also

never thought of revealing their inappropriate relation to the company.

But after all that happened, She found herself to be too kind.

She tried to be kind to Sandy, but Sandy instead made up so many lies to manager Wang to set her up.

"Ms. Zhang, it seems that you have totally forgotten what we've talked about in the washing room that

day." Rachel said those words with a cold smile on her face. She wondered how that woman's heart

could be so wicked.

Hearing that, Sandy felt scared. If Rachel revealed Sandy and Mr. Zhang's relationship, she would not

only lose her job, but also break her family.

No way! She couldn't let Rachel reveal it.
