Chapter 70 You Are My Dish
'Rich men are usually found to be ugly and fat. However, the man in the photo is quite handsome, and
he looks like a star, ' Vicky thought to herself.
Rachel followed her gaze and saw the picture. The family photo was taken when Hiram was a junior
student in the college. He looked really charming and glamorous in the picture.
"Yes, exactly. He is your ... cousin-in-law."
Rachel answered with an emphasis on the word "cousin-in-law".
After Vicky's inquiry, Colin and Selina also gazed at the family photo, and when they saw the man in
the middle, They couldn't help admiring: What a handsome man!
"Sister, where is Mr. Rong?" Rachel felt quite surprised that the timid Vicky would ask such questions.
"He is on a business trip, and he will be back after a couple of days." Rachel answered with a gentle
glance at Vicky. The expression in her eyes was fairly similar to that of Mandy's.
'Oddly enough, I haven't seen Mandy for some time.
Young and lively girls tend to like wealthy and handsome men.
It isn't shameful. But it would be disgraceful if they still insist on pursuing those men even after knowing
that they already have a wife, ' thought Rachel to herself.
"Uncle, aunt, and Vicky, please stay in H City for a few more days. So that you can attend my
wedding." Rachel invited them with a smile, while completely ignoring their surprise.
"What... What are you talking about?" Colin was amazed. 'What does it mean? Are they going to get Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
married?'
Selina shook her head with inconceivablility, she stood up immediately and said, " Are you kidding me?
I find it hard to believe that Mr. Rong will marry you."
Even Vicky looked at her with uneasiness.
"What's wrong? Aunt, are you opposing our marriage? Unfortunately, your words don't mean anything
as we already got our marriage certificate a month ago. So this is not only the Rongs' house, but also
mine."
Rachel said calmly. Then she stood up and stretched, "Uncle, if you don't have anything else to
discuss, let's call it a day. Maybe we can meet later. Besides, I am really tired after a whole day's work."
Selina stood there in a daze until she was pulled out of the house by her husband.
And before Vicky left the house, Rachel said to her, "Vicky, I am telling you this because I consider you
as my younger sister. Women should have self-esteem, and they should never be at the mercy of
others. Don't forget to tell your parents to leave from here before my husband comes back. So that you
can leave with dignity."
When the family left, Rachel rubbed her aching forehead. Then she turned around and saw Joanna
standing at the corner.
"Have they left?"
"Sorry... Mom. I'm sorry that you had to meet my ridiculous relatives."
Rachel looked down and apologized.
Joanna walked towards Rachel while shaking her head. She comforted Rachel by saying, "We are
family. There's no need to apologize.
Our family is quite famous and wealthy. Consequently, a lot of people try to get linked with us in
different ways. All we can do is to build up our fortress first so that we can defend ourselves against the
enemies outside."
Rachel gently nodded on hearing her words and said with a smile, "Thank you, mom."
Joanna looked at her with a smile, tapped her hand, and said, "That's fine. Now that you are back,
don't leave tonight. Just stay here. Your room is cleaned every day."
"Good night, mom..." "Good night. Sweet dreams."
Rachel went upstairs after Joanna left.
She speculated that Hiram would hear about this soon.
Just as Rachel got into the bedroom, she received a phone call from Fannie.
"Rachel, I'm quite worried these days. I think that your uncle and aunt wouldn't give up so easily. And I
feel really uneasy these days." Fannie had been sleepless for the past few days, worrying that her
brother would cause some problems.
Rachel sat by her bedside, holding a picture in her hand, and said, "Mom, you are right. I'm with the
Rongs, and I've just sent them away."
After a moment of silence, Fannie grew quite angry and asked, "What did you say? Your uncle and
aunt came to the Rongs' house?!
What on earth were they thinking? Your marriage was registered. You and Hiram are already a couple.
We are relatives, yet they brought their daughter to your in-laws' house to rob my son-in-law.
That's absurd. My god, I'm so furious!"
Rachel heard that her mother was quite angry, so she persuaded her by saying, "Mom, please don't be
so angry. You need to take care of your blood pleasure. It's okay. What's done is done. I am already
married to Hiram. Whatever they do will just turn out to be useless!
Mom, listen to me. Tomorrow, you should contact uncle and aunt to make an appointment with them.
Let's have a talk together to see if our relationship should be continued."
Rachel thought for a while and continued, "If they really feel angry about all this, it is necessary that we
have a proper discussion."
Fannie's anger faded away slowly, she sat on the sofa, drank a glass of water and said, "Fine, Rachel. I
will do as you say... I'll talk to Colin tomorrow. If they insist on fighting against us, then we will break all
ties with them!"
"That's right. Please don't get so angry for such things. Anger is useless. When you decide the time of
the meeting, please let me know as well!"
Rachel said, and then hung up the phone. She thought carefully for a while and found that she needed
to call Hiram.
These days, she didn't disturb him because she learned from Carl that he was busy with his work.
He had made it clear before his business trip that it would take about half a month. So it wasn't wise to
ask him when he would come back.
Unwittingly, the call was dialed, and soon, someone answered from the other end.
"So, what's up? You can't wait to see me?" Hiram's voice came from the phone instantly. His voice was
as attractive as before, but now it sounded more cheerful.
It sounded like he was joking, but it also seemed that he had been waiting for her call for quite some
time.
Once Rachel heard his voice, she suddenly felt that the fortress in her heart collapsed. She discovered
that she missed him immensely.
"What are you talking about? If there's nothing urgent that requires your attention, why would I call
you?" Rachel said stubbornly, but the laughter in her voice betrayed her.
Hiram held the phone with a smile, "Wow! Then I really want to know, what on earth is so urgent that
forced you to give me a call."
Rachel fiddled with his picture and said, "When will you come back?"
"Why do you want me to go back? Are you lonely?" Hiram laughed lightly; he put down his pen to listen
to her.
"I want to ask, when will you come back and marry me..."
Rachel bit her lip and asked after a deep breath. She could feel her heart pounding. But the other side
kept silent for a while, which made her more nervous.
"Hey. Hiram?" She shouted. 'Are you there?'
"What's wrong. You can't wait to be my Mrs. Rong? Erm... It depends on your performance after I am
back. If you make me happy, perhaps we can have the wedding the next day."
"Hiram, answer me honestly, when will you be back?" Rachel poked Hiram's face in the photo. 'You are
really a bad guy. Always joking with me, can't you just answer my question?' she thought.
"The day after tomorrow. The plane should be there by noon. Then we can have lunch together." Hiram
finally answered her question. Then he added, "Remember to wash and dress yourself well before I
arrive there. You know, you are my most important dish then."
