Chapter 212 Hiram’s Dissolute Cousin
Chapter 212 Hiram’s Dissolute Cousin
"Don't tell this to anyone. If you remember something else, call me at any time."The butler patted the
envelope.
Gavin walked out from the small restaurant with a more dignified expression.
The Rong family was immersed in grief when Landy suddenly passed away. And when the secrets
started to come out, no one was prepared for them.
No secret could be hidden forever. Gavin believed that sooner or later, all the truth would be revealed.
In the Stream Company.
When Hiram got out of the conference room, Chad rushed over and whispered something to him.
"Have you made any progress?" Hiram asked after hearing what Chad had to say.
He shook his head helplessly. "Nothing yet. But it seems that your father is not ready to give up just
yet."
"Yes, I know. Get someone to watch over him and be sure to verify the words again."Hiram walked
toward the office after giving his instructions.
Morally speaking, he should not go against his father's wishes. But this was about Rachel.
That was why he couldn't let this issue go.
In the Stream Company, the office for the project of Cliff Mountain.
Rachel was busy typing on the keyboard when the phone suddenly rang. She picked it up.
"Oh dear! Mom, can you stop?" Rachel frustratedly answered," You haven't fully recovered yet and now
you want to look for a new shop? Why don't you take a longer vacation?"
Because of the accident, Fannie could no longer work like she used to. But since she had always been
busy throughout her life, her body was not used to doing nothing. She felt like she had been resting for
forever.
"You should support your mom! Don't you understand?" Fannie questioned. "I am not yet old! I can't
stay in the house waiting for you to earn money and give me food. I have to be self-reliant!"
Fannie declared.
"Fine. I'll spare some time to look for a new shop with you, okay?"Rachel knew her mother's temper.
She could only comfort her.
Right after Rachel hung up the phone, a file fell onto her desk. She looked up to see Daniel standing by
her desk with arms crossed on his chest.
"Hiram wants this document now. Go up and give it to him," he urgently demanded.
Rachel was not willing to follow his demand. "Why do I have to do this? I am very busy!"
Daniel snapped back at Rachel saying," Please do as you are told without complain."Daniel slammed
his hands on her desk to remind Rachel that he was still the boss. Then he turned around to walk
towards his office.
Rachel angrily stared at the document for a while before giving in eventually. She unwillingly got up.
Quickly snatching the contract off the desk, Rachel walked toward the elevator and pressed the button.
After waiting for a while, she noticed that the elevator was coming up from the first floor.
Ding! Finally the elevator was here.
Rachel lifted her foot to get in, but as she focused her eyes into the elevator, the expression on her
face suddenly turned into shock.
Seemingly a scene from a R-rated film appeared in front of Rachel. She saw a man's waist pressed
against a woman by the elevator wall. Her long, silky white legs wrapped around his body. The man
slowly turned his head and looked at Rachel with an annoyed expression on his face.
Rachel's jaw dropped to the floor. But it wasn't because of embarrassment, but because of who she
saw.
'Is that Hiram?' She thought to herself.
'No, no. Though his eyes and nose were similar to Hiram's, the other details were completely different.'
"Have you been watching long enough? Now close the doors and don't disturb me." He said impatiently
to Rachel with a hint of arrogance in his tone. She noticed that his voice was also completely different
from Hiram's as well.
Standing at the door of the elevator, she immediately pressed the down button to close the elevator.
She was not in a hurry to take the other elevator but stayed and noticed that this elevator stopped on
the 28th floor. The other elevator arrived and she walked in.
Did he just go to the floor where the CEO's office was on?
Was this man related to Hiram in any way?
At the same time, outside the first elevator on the 28th floor, Hiram looked at his watch to note that it
was already time. He raised his head to see that the elevator had arrived.
The moment the elevator door opened, his thick eyebrows immediately wrinkled. Angrily, he shouted at
the man inside," Hearst!What are you doing in my elevator?!
Put on your pants and get out here now!"
Hearst slowly put on his pants and clipped his belt. He blew a kiss to the woman inside. "Honey, I'll see
you tomorrow. You can go back first!"
After the elevator doors were closed, he looked at Hiram and said," Big brother, that woman is quite
good at sex. Do you want to enjoy her tonight?"
"Keep her to yourself," Hiram answered. His cold and gloomy eyes swept at him. Though he had
already seen Hearst, he did not rush to leave. He looked at the elevator and wondered why Rachel had
not come up.
His thought was quickly interrupted by Hearst fixing his hair and casually saying," Big brother, isn't that
elevator for you only? Have you removed that rule?"
Hiram's eyes grew wide as he knew this could only mean one thing.
Except for Rachel, no one dared to take this elevator.
At this moment, another elevator door opened and Rachel stepped out from inside.
She saw the two men standing along the corridor. She was still wondering who was this man and why
did he look a lot like Hiram?
"Here's the contract you wanted!" She then handed the file to Hiram with doubt in her eyes.
"Big brother, who is she?" Hearst began to look at her carefully as he saw this woman for the second
time today.
This made Rachel very uncomfortable. It was as if another dissolute Hiram was watching her. It felt
very awkward.
It was as if her image of Hiram was being tarnished!
"Hearst, she's your sister-in-law."
Hiram answered calmly as he took the file from Rachel's hand and casually embraced her, whispering,"
I told Daniel that you have other things to do so you can stay with me this afternoon. Change your
clothes in a while to accompany me to a meeting."
The curiosity built up even more for Hearst as he stared at her. However, he suddenly stopped when he
noticed that Hiram was giving him a cold look.
"Big brother, it's our family gathering tonight. Now you haven't had the wedding yet, are you sure it's not
too early to take her to that?"
"Shut up, go to the waiting room."Hiram commanded with knife-like eyes. He then turned and walked
toward the president's office with Rachel.
Once they were in the office, Rachel asked Hiram," Who is he?"
"He's my cousin. Susan is his sister." Hiram answered while walking around his desk and opening the
file.
After thinking for a moment, Rachel said," Then he's not your younger brother. But why does he look a
lot like you?"
Hiram hesitated. When he was young, he hated other people saying that Hearst looked like him. This
was because Hearst had done many dissolute things using his name.
"Maybe the appearance is inherited from generation to generation. His grandfather and my grandfather
are brothers after all."
Rachel nodded, agreeing with this theory. Suddenly she remembered what he had just said earlier out
in the corridor.
When he mentioned that she had to attend a meeting, she didn't think too much of it assuming that it
was just another ordinary meeting.
But she felt anxious when she remembered Hearst mentioned that it was a Rong family gathering.
"You mentioned that we're going to attend a meeting this afternoon..." Rachel said.
"A family gathering. All the family members will be there. It's nothing serious. We always have this
gathering every year after the Mid-Autumn Festival." Hiram explained while looking at the contract.
A frown crept onto Rachel's face. "Hiram, I still have work to do this afternoon. Would it be okay if I not
go with you?"
"No." Hiram refused without raising his head.
An enormous wave of pressure suddenly overwhelmed Rachel. When they attended a small gathering This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
last time, she already felt stressed.
This time, it was a gathering of the entire Rong family.
