Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 59 The Trouble Caused By Lydia

Since it was his family issue, she thought she'd better stay out of it instead of creating more trouble for

him.

There was little she could do to help him now.

Carl was in charge of sending her home. While Hiram was taken by another car. He would be sent to

his parents' home directly.

When Hiram arrived at his parents' house, he saw his mother Joanna already waiting for him on the

couch in the living room. She looked a little distressed.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Hiram asked.

When Joanna saw him, she stood up and pulled him aside to the guest room. "Hiram, I'm afraid that

things have become more complicated now, " Joanna said.

Hiram furrowed his eyebrows at the embarrassment on his mother's face. "Mom, what happened?" he

asked.

"Well, the thing is... Rachel's mom came by to talk about the wedding when you weren't home. Lydia

overheard it and did something terrible."

Joanna sighed deeply before continuing, "First of all, we didn't tell your mother-in-law everything about

our family before. Now the situation has gotten worse after what Lydia said... I don't know what

happened to her these two years to make her become so unsociable that she would say... that she

would say..." Joanna seemed to be too shocked to finish the sentence.

Hearing that, Hiram furrowed his brow even deeper. If Lydia hadn't said anything terrible, his mother

wouldn't be so anxious. Lydia had definitely said something that she wasn't supposed to say.

"Lydia has been really spoiled by me. It was out of my expectation that she would say you and her

were engaged long before. And if not for Rachel, you two would be married a long time ago, " Joanna

kept saying.

She shook her head, as if to blame herself. She was also regretting not being truthful to Fannie. If she

had told Fannie everything right from the start, then...

"Your mother-in-law is also a dignified person. How can she accept something like that? She said that

as soon as Rachel gets back, she will let her know. And if we can't give them a good explanation, she

will ask Rachel to move out from your place, " Joanna continued.

"How about Lydia? Where is she now?" Hiram asked suddenly.

Joanna shook her head and said, "I think she knows how much trouble she has created. After all, your

marriage was decided by your great-grandfathers a long time ago. I haven't seen her since this

afternoon.

I think she has hidden herself. She's been hiding herself whenever she created any trouble since she

was a child."

At the same time...

Rachel had just arrived at Hiram's villa when her cell phone rang. It was a call from Fannie, her mother.

"Mom, what did you say? Are you at the gate of the Tulip Palace right now? Wait a second. I'll tell the

security guard to let you in immediately."

Rachel didn't think too much about Fannie's unannounced visit, since Fannie had already told her she

would be visiting some time soon.

However, the moment she saw Fannie, she knew that there was something wrong.

"My dear Fannie, what's wrong with you? Did some uncle annoy you again? You can tell me, I will take

revenge for you, " Rachel said, holding onto her mother's arm and helping her sit on the couch. She

was

Preparing to listen to her mother's long rant.

"Rachel, I'm afraid I've done something wrong to you, " Fannie said, her eyes brimming with tears. She

quickly turned her head away, because she didn't want Rachel to see her crying. "You're right. I rushed

things too much. I kept pushing you to marry Hiram as soon as possible, because I thought the

moment you got married, you wouldn't have to worry about anything else. But I never thought that

things would change like this."

"Mom..." Rachel finally realized that she was the reason that made her mother feel so upset, not some

uncle.

"What's going on exactly? Can you please calm down and tell me?" Rachel asked, placing her hand on

Fannie's and looking at her eyes.

Fannie took a shaky breath out of anger and said, "I was wrong to think that you have a great mother-

in-law. I didn't expect them to cheat us like this. Their adopted daughter told me personally that she and

Hiram had been engaged for a long time. We were the ones who broke that engagement.

The Rong family is really too much. I didn't know that they had a son because they lived abroad. But

now, you're married into their family and we are relatives. How can they do that to us? They didn't even

tell us that they have an adopted daughter!" Fannie said, seething.

She shook her head, took a breath and continued, "Rachel, you would better move out of this house

before things are clear. We're also a great family with a good reputation. We can't let that little girl ruin

it."

Rachel was stunned by her mother's words.

She had always thought that Lydia, her sister-in-law, was kind of weird. But she had never thought that

the girl would say something like that in front of her mother, it was really shocking.

Lydia was just an adopted daughter. How dare she say those words?

What about Hiram's parents?

What had they been doing then?

"Rachel, do what I say. Pack your things and go back home with me for a few days, " Fannie said.

Yes, the Rong family was rich. But the Ruan family wasn't a small family that could be bullied easily.

"Mom, I think it's better if I wait for Hiram to come back and let him explain things to me personally.

After all, we're legally husband and wife now. For something like this, I think it's necessary for him to

explain it to me personally, "

Rachel said calmly. Although she didn't know exactly what had happened, she did know some things.

What Lydia had said was just her wishful thinking. And she had probably said it because she had

grown up with Hiram and had very deep feelings for him. Accepting his marriage in such a short time

was too hard for her.

"Rachel, " Fannie pressed. She was trying to convince her to go with her.

"How about this? I'll talk to him when he gets back. After that, I'll go back with you for a few days. Is

that okay?" Rachel asked. She had to calm her mother down first. Otherwise, she would be too

anxious.

Fannie nodded her head and said, "All right. You're family now, so it's your own life. It's better if it's

solved by the two of you. But still, I think that until the Lydia matter is solved, it's better if you move

back with me to show our dignity."

"I understand. Thank you, mom, " Rachel said. Rachel hugged her mom and lightly patted her on the

shoulders.

About an hour after she sent Fannie off, Hiram arrived home.

As soon as he reached the villa, he looked for Rachel.

He couldn't find her in any of the rooms. Rage was about to hit him when he heard the sound of water

rushing from the bathroom.

He threw open the door of the bathroom. Rachel had just finished pulling her pants up, so the

movement had frightened her. She hadn't locked the door since she was at home.

When Hiram saw her inside, his heartbeat slowed back to normal.

"What's wrong? Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that I'll run away?" Rachel asked, noticing his

forehead, which was covered in a thin layer of sweat already.

"I thought you might have gone back with your mother, " Hiram answered directly without denying it.

And then he pulled her out of the bathroom.

"How can I dare to go back without your permission?" she asked. "Have you forgotten? I've accepted

100 million dollars as the bride price. Even if it's not for your sake, I have to stay for the money's sake.

Right?"

Hiram couldn't help but laugh at her words. What a nice term, 'bride price'. But the term he had used

initially before Rachel changed it was 'bed warming charge'.

It didn't matter what reason she gave, it only mattered that she wouldn't leave.

As for the money, it could be considered as his sincerity.

"Well, can you let go of my hand now? We can sit down and have a good talk, " Rachel said, pointing to

the empty couch.

She thought she should give him the benefit of the doubt.

her till the end. He had trusted her so much.

It was only right that she trusted him too.

Hearing what Rachel said, instead of letting her hand go, Hiram gripped it even tighter.

In a split-second, before Rachel could even react, Hiram roughly pulled her to his chest.
