Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 102 The Feast At The Rong Family

"Rachel? Where are you? Hiram told me to pick you up, " Carl said.

"It's still early now. I'm still in the city center. Don't bother. I will go to the Streams Company by myself

later, " Rachel said. She wanted to hang around a little longer.

But Carl said, "Rachel, here is the thing. There will be some guests at the home of Rong family tonight. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

So Hiram asked me to get you prepared for tonight ahead of time."

Rachel halted and asked with a frown, "There will be guests? If it's not a convenient time, then you tell

Hiram that I will go to the home of Rong family with him another day."

"I'm afraid that you have to go today. These guests are coming to see you. So you have to show up, "

Carl said with pure pleasure.

These guests were relatives from Rong and Fang families. Hiram's mother had known that Rachel

would come tonight, so she had invited them. How could Rachel, the star of the feast tonight, be

absent?

Rachel let out a long sigh silently. She knew that Hiram had put her into trouble again. If she had

known this plan, she wouldn't have promised him that she would go so quickly!

"Then it's settled. Now I will drive downtown to pick you up. The hair stylist and the costumer are

waiting for you. I'm on the way!" Carl thought Rachel had acquiesced since she hadn't said anything.

Noting that Rachel was upset, Celine was confused and asked Rachel with a smile, "What's the

matter? You just go to the house of the Rong family. Why are you looking like that? You have been

there before!"

"Celine. Hiram and I have been divorced. But he's still going to introduce me to the guests of the Rong

family. What do you think about that?" Rachel asked with resignation.

Celine laughed. Then she said what was on her mind clearly.

"If you can break up with Hiram, I will do whatever you ask me to do!

Hiram has no intention of ending this relationship with you. His eyes are filled with endless love every

time he looks at you. You didn't see how the woman named Cassie was jealous of you today. Even

though there is friction between you and Hiram, you won't break up. If you two are still divorced in the

end, I will have your last name as mine!"

Rachel looked at Celine and poked at her, "What do you mean? Are you saying that I got myself into a

fuss about nothing?"

"I don't know if it is about nothing. But I think you should find an opportunity to give a lesson to your

sister-in-law. After all, the divorce was not Hiram's decision. It's your sister-in-law who did it!"

Celine put a good word for Hiram. She continued after thinking for a second, "But you are doing it right.

Though Hiram is a good husband and is hard to be married to, you can't let him think that you are easy

to get. You have got to let him realize that you have dignity! After all, the mistake was done by a

member of Hiram's family. Why should you forgive Hiram unconditionally? Am I right?"

Rachel looked at Celine with admiration. She thought Celine had such a quick mind.

"Are you free later? I'm going to attend the feast held by the Rong family in the evening. So Carl is

going to have me dressed up. Do you want to go along with me?"

Celine clapped her hands with excitement, "Of course I do. I'm willing to go to the feast with you if you

are OK with it."

"Are you? That's so good. I'm worried that I will be afraid to attend the feast by myself. If you are with

me, I will be in your company and feel less nervous." Rachel said in a serious tone. It was easy to

guess that Hiram wouldn't accompany her all the time in the evening. But she knew nothing about the

Rong family.

Then Celine gave an awkward smile. She shook her hands and said, "I was just joking. I've heard that

relations in rich and powerful families are complicated. I'd better stay out of it. So good luck! I'm going

home to have ice cream and watch a TV series!"

"Hey......"

"See you!"

Celine waved her hand at Rachel, dismissing her request. Then she hailed a taxi and left Rachel.

Rachel shrugged with resignation. She realized that she could only depend on herself at these critical

moments.

Before long, Carl arrived in a car.

At dusk.

The car came to a complete halt in the spacious yard of the house of the Rong family.

Rachel took a few deep breaths. She opened her compact mirror and looked at herself in it. When she

saw herself look gorgeous and stunning, she had a very strange feeling about herself.

"Rachel, Hiram went back to the company to deal with something urgent. It will take him some time.

How about you go inside by yourself for now?" Carl suggested.

Rachel opened the car door. She wore a pair of white high-heeled shoes that exposed her fair toes. It

was just a family feast, so the dress she wore was not too resplendent. She felt uneasy not because of

the dress but because of the feeling the dress gave her.

"Rachel, you look stunning today!" Carl complimented Rachel. He knew that she was a little nervous

without Hiram with her.

Rachel gave Carl a relaxed smile. She got the purpose of Carl's compliment. She grabbed her red

limited edition Hermes purse and walked confidently towards the house of the Rong family.

Inside the house, the lights were bright and laughter was in the air.

There were not too many guests. They were all close relatives of the Rong family. Rachel found that

most of them were women.

Joanna sat and chatted with two elderly women. Beside them were three young girls clustering

together.

Gavin was not at home as Rachel had expected. So almost all the men were absent. Most of the

guests were women who came to have a talk with Joanna.

"Wow! Joanna, is this your future daughter-in-law?" The moment Rachel entered the house, the

woman in a black dress with a heavy necklace, sitting next to Joanna asked excitedly.

Hearing that, the young girls and the elderly women in the room looked in the direction of the door.

"Such a beauty. Joanna, I always knew that Hiram had a good eye for choosing a good wife. Are you

Rachel? You are so pretty. You are way more beautiful than average girls!" Another woman in a

magenta gown gave a sincere compliment to Rachel. This woman was much older than she looked.

Compliments on Rachel came before she approached those women.

Joanna stood up and waved her hands at Rachel, "Rachel, come over here quickly. I'm going to

introduce you to......"

"Mom." Rachel nodded her head slightly and greeted Joanna.

"Well, come here, Rachel. This is your eldest aunt. She's my twin sister." Joanna pointed at the woman

who was in a black dress and wore a jewelry necklace. Though they were twin sisters, they didn't look

like each other.

Joanna then pointed at the woman in a magenta gown and said to Rachel, "This is your aunt from

Hiram's uncle's family. we have a very close relationship."

"Nice to meet you, aunties. My name is Rachel." Rachel greeted them one by one.

"Nice meeting you too. You are such a good girl!" The aunt from Hiram's uncle's family praised Rachel

with a smile.

"Mom, you continue with your conversation. We are going to take Rachel away from you." Suddenly a

young girl as agile as a butterfly ran there and dragged Rachel to the other side of the room.

Rachel was confused and didn't know who the girl was. Then she heard the girl say, "Rachel, my name

is Susan. I'm the daughter of the lady you were talking to. Hiram is my cousin."

The family tree of the Rong family was large. Hiram had plenty of cousins. Carl was just one of them.

"Rachel, nice meeting you. Let me introduce myself first. My husband is the son of your mother-in-law's

sister. Am I clear to you?" That woman who wore an elegant grey dress smiled at Rachel, "My name is

Miranda, you can call me your sister if you like."

"Nice to meet you, sister......" Rachel said in a gentle voice.

Finally all of them looked at the girl who was seated on the couch playing on a mobile phone.
