Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 80 A Visit To The Hospital

It was quite late at night. There were bright stars scattered all over the night sky, twinkling and

twinkling..

Rachel didn't dare to move or even blink her eyes, in case she would miss even the tiniest expression

from Hiram.

"If I didn't love you, I would have brought out the divorce agreement long ago instead of keeping it

locked up in the cabinet the whole time, " Hiram said.

He stared at Rachel intensely. He couldn't pinpoint exactly when he had fallen in love with her. It was a

mysterious feeling that he wasn't familiar with.

Maybe he had fallen in love with her when she had protected him from the stone.

Or maybe he had fallen in love with her when she had made breakfast for him.

Or maybe he had fallen in love with her when he had heard that she had been kidnapped and the news

had scared him deeply in his heart. At that moment, he felt afraid of losing her.

Without saying anything, Rachel leaned her cheek on his shoulder and put her arm around his waist,

enjoying the moment of peace. It didn't matter when or how, she was glad that the result was the same:

Hiram loved her.

And fortunately, he finally took her physical condition into consideration and did nothing to her. In the

tranquil night, he embraced her and they both fell asleep.

The next day, early in the morning...

Rachel had had a pleasant sleep last night. Once she woke up, she made porridge along with a few

delicious dishes and placed them inside the insulated lunch box. She was going to visit Fannie, her

mother, in the hospital.

Hiram was already in the living room waiting for her.

As soon as she finished, they walked to his car and got in together. "I'm having lunch with my friends

this afternoon. I'll come and pick you up as soon as we're finished. Then we'll go back to our parents'

home, " Hiram said.

"All right. I was planning to go there too." Rachel looked at the back seat where they had kept the

insulated lunch box to make sure everything was in place, then she put her seat belt on.

She wanted to go back to the Rong family's house so that she could destroy the divorce agreement.

She was afraid that someone might find it.

When they arrived at the hospital, Rachel saw that Uncle Nico was already there in her mother's room.

"Good morning, Rachel, I'm glad to see you here." As soon as Uncle Nico saw her, he stood up and

took the insulated lunch box from her. "I haven't seen you in quite a while, " he said. "You've become

more beautiful."

"Good morning, Uncle Nico. How are you?" Rachel asked. She hadn't expected to see Uncle Nico

there so early. But when she saw his familiar and kind smile, her dislike for his daughter Mandy

reduced a little.

"Mom, I've made you some porridge. You can have it when you're hungry, " Rachel said to her mother.

As she sat next to her, she looked at her mother's leg and could imagine how much pain she was going

through.

However, Fannie didn't show any sign of discomfort. Instead, she kept smiling and said, "I can get

whatever I need in this hospital. You don't have to do anything special for me. Hiram has arranged

everything. He even sent a cook who is on duty 24 hours just to cook for me.

And by the way, he cooks much better than you."

This was news to Rachel. Hiram had seen her cooking earlier that morning, but he hadn't said

anything. Maybe he had known that she just wanted to do something nice for her mother.

"All right, all right. If that's the case, I won't cook anything for you next time, " Rachel answered with a

smile. She knew that her cooking was nothing compared to the skills of a professional cook.

Uncle Nico couldn't help but laugh at their easy interaction and said with a hint of envy, "Fannie, you

have a great daughter, Unlike my daughter Mandy, who is so wild that she's never concerned about her

father."

When he mentioned Mandy, Fannie and Rachel exchanged glances but didn't say anything.

"Oh, right, Fannie, when I was about to leave home this morning, I asked Mandy to come with me but

she said she was afraid that it would make Rachel angry. What happened? Please tell me." Uncle Nico

explained how he had tried to convince Mandy to accompany him to the hospital but she had refused.

Fannie cleared her throat and said, "Nothing. It was just a small quarrel between two little girls. No big

deal, don't worry."

Uncle Nico nodded his head and said, "Rachel, no matter what happened, I know it must be Mandy's

fault. She often quarrels with me too. She annoys almost everyone. If she has done anything bad to

you, I would like to apologize on behalf of her."

Rachel shook her head. She knew Uncle Nico very well. He wasn't the type of man who would be

partial to his own daughter. Knowing that, she answered, "Nothing, please don't worry. Uncle Nico,

since you are here, why not stay here a few more days before going back?"

Uncle Nico seemed a little embarrassed as he had already got his own intention. He bent his head and

said, "Rachel, I don't have anything important to attend to these days, and you seem to be very busy,

so I was already wondering if I could stay and take care of your mother. Can you please offer me the

chance to take care of her?" Uncle Nico asked.

He had come here with the intention of staying and taking care of Fannie, an idea which had been

encouraged by his daughter too.

Rachel looked at Fannie to find out her opinion and saw Fannie shaking her head. "Nico, you don't

have to do this. I have my own daughter and son-in-law here to take care of me. If I didn't have anyone

else, then you could stay. But now, I have enough people to take care of me. You really don't have to

do that, " said Fannie.

"Fannie, don't say that. I'm not an outsider. Even though there are enough people taking care of you,

you still need someone to talk to, right?" Uncle Nico asked with a simple smile on his face. He seemed

determined to stay. He knew Fannie very well. Above all, she was scared of boredom.

"Uncle Nico, I just quit my job. I don't have any work to do these days. I'll take care of my mother

myself. Please don't worry. Besides, you're also working. I don't want your work to be disturbed, "

Rachel answered.

If this had happened a few months ago, Rachel might have agreed with Uncle Nico. But now, things

had changed. She had much more to consider. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Hearing Rachel's words, Uncle Nico had no reason to insist. He left after talking to them for a while.

Rachel sat beside her mother and stared at her for a while before asking, "My dear mother, you'd better

tell me the truth. What's going on between you and Uncle Nico?"

Fannie looked at Rachel and burst out into laughter.

"You little girl, don't you know how to respect elders? What feelings can I have for him? You know very

well that your father was so handsome that I can't easily have feelings for others. As for your Uncle

Nico, I really appreciate him for helping us a lot. But other than that, I have no feelings for him at all."

Hearing that, Rachel let out a sigh of relief and picked up an apple from the table. Peeling the apple,

she said, "Mom, how about I introduce you to someone? I really mean it. You're still very young. If you

live alone, it will be too lonely for you. Don't you think so?"

Fannie shook her head and turned her eyes to the window. Outside, the sun was shining brightly. She

replied, "I am used to my life now. For my whole life, your father was and will be the only one I love. I

will not marry anyone else. Otherwise, I'll be too ashamed to see him after my death, " Fannie said,

immediately wiping off the tears that had fallen from her eyes.

Even though it had been so many years since her father passed away, Fannie couldn't help but cry

whenever he was mentioned.

Rachel knew that the love between her father and her mother couldn't be erased even by death.

"Rachel, if you really don't want me to be alone, you should give me a grandson or a granddaughter as

soon as possible. I won't be lonely then, " said Fannie, wiping her tears and patting Rachel's shoulder

with a smile on her face again.

This stunned Rachel a little. Then, with a smile, she answered, "Even if I have a baby, Hiram's mother

will take care of it."

"So what? I can move into your mother-in-law's house. I can even become your nanny, if necessary, "

Fannie said strongly, raising her voice.

Rachel was amused by this sudden burst of emotion from her mother. She held her mother's hand and

said, "Now that the birth policy in our country allows couples to have two babies, maybe I can have two

so that you can each take care of one baby."

"That would be a great idea! Both of our families can take care of one each. Or it would be even better

if we can take turns to take care of them, " Fannie replied, immediately grabbing onto the idea.

As they talked, Rachel had peeled the apple. She gave it to her mother and said, "Mom, that's enough.

Here, please have an apple now."

Time flew by when they were together.

In the afternoon, Hiram arrived at the hospital to pick Rachel up just on time.
