Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 167 Being Alone

"Did I wake you up?" Daniel's voice sounded softly on the phone.

Rachel sat up straight. She had only minded herself and forgot about him. "No, you didn't. How are

you? Are you okay now?"

"I'm fine. That couldn't hurt me so easily." Daniel laughed. As for the drug, it lost its effect on him after

he had fulfilled his desire. Besides, his wounds had almost recovered.

"That's a relief. I was about to call you... Ummm, may I take a few days off?" Rachel had wanted to call

him tomorrow morning.

Daniel hesitated for a few seconds, and then agreed, "No problem. Although Zachary escaped, he is

now wanted by the authorities nationwide, so don't worry. He won't pose any threat to you."

"What? He escaped?" Rachel got upset upon hearing that.

"Yeah, they were about to arrest him, but after Hiram heard that you were in trouble, they stopped

halfway, " said Daniel, then he continued, "He is quite cunning. Hiram and I had planned to search for

you in different places. However, what we didn't expect was that he had many strongholds. Before we

eventually found you, we had to destroy many of those bases."

Daniel took a deep breath, then said slowly, "Hiram was so worried about you that he didn't sleep for

several days and he didn't eat anything during that time. I know you still blame him, but... don't be so

harsh on him. He did his best to find you.

I mean...actually you can punish him, but please think of all the effort he has devoted to you..."

Rachel raised her head and looked outside. Outside her window, the night was struggling to fall asleep.

She sneered, "Daniel, now I feel envious of him."

"Envious? Why? He's your husband..."

Daniel asked quizzically.

"It was me who got kidnapped, but everyone is still standing on his side! Everyone! Starting from my

mother-in-law, you and my mom, all on his side!"

Rachel's eyes turned red with tears.

"Although I was the only victim in this kidnapping, no one speaks for me..."

Rachel felt like she had no one who could understand the traumatic experience she had gone through.

Rachel then said with desperation, "It's like suddenly, I've become the one who is making trouble out of

nothing. I'm the one to blame. You've all tried to persuade me. You all said that Hiram had tried his

best, so I shouldn't embarrass him anymore.

Daniel, I know that you are his friend. That's why you're taking his side, so I don't want to nag you."

Daniel didn't say anything. Although what she had said was not completely true, At the very least, it

was reasonable.

"Good night!"

"Rachel!"

"..."

Rachel hung up the phone, even though Daniel wasn't able to finish what he wanted to say to her.

Daniel decided to give her some space and stopped himself from calling her back.

After Rachel hung up, she switched off her phone and fell asleep.

Salt Sea City

Was near the sea.

It was also called Salt City. It was near the sea, and the weather there was quite warm all year round.

When Rachel arrived at Salt City, she felt like she was set free from jail.

After spending some time away from H City, she realized everything in Salt City was so clean and pure.

The sea, especially, was wider and bluer than the sky in this place.

Sitting at the beach, staring into the blue sky and beautiful ocean, she felt a sense of serenity inside of

her.

Rachel switched off the phone Hiram had given her. She got herself a new one, with a new sim card

inside.

Only her mother's and aunts' numbers were stored in her new card.

Therefore, there would be no one to bother her.

"Come here, Rachel! This shell is so beautiful! It's the best one I've picked ever!"

Jasmine, Rachel's younger cousin, called out to her in excitement. She was waving a blue shell at her.

"Yeah, it's really nice. Do you want to keep it or give it away to someone else?" Rachel walked forward

and hugged her gently.

Jasmine thought to herself a while, and said, "If I bring it home and somehow my brother finds out

about it, he will definitely want to take it for himself! But, I don't want to give it to anyone else…"

"Uh? Don't you like your brother?"

Rachel smiled, and asked her with amusement. Her aunt had a daughter and a five-year-old son.

Jasmine replied, unhappily, "My brother always grabs my things, but my mom wants me to take care of

him. She doesn't allow me to refuse him. Rachel! If you give birth to a baby, you'd better have a girl! I

want a younger sister, not a brother!"

Rachel burst into laughter, "You must really hate your brother?"

"Not always… sometimes he's good to me, but sometimes when he does something bad, it makes me

want to beat him up!" Soon, she carefully put the blue shell into her pocket.

Rachel pulled her cheeks. Since she grew up by the sea, her skin tone was darker. She was extremely

lovely when she smiled.

"Okay, okay, when I have a baby, I will choose a girl, a girl who is as lovely and clever as you are!"

Then Rachel stood up, held her cousin's little hand, and walked home with her. It was almost time for

dinner.

"Rachel, can you keep a secret?"

"I can keep a secret for you."

"There's a boy in my class who seems to like me…"

Rachel smiled back and promised to keep her secret safe. Her feet kissed the sand as she walked.

After they entered the house, Rachel found that her uncle hadn't come back yet. They were involved in This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

the wholesale business. Often they would have to deliver the goods to their customers, thus, they

would have a busy schedule.

"Behave yourself and stay at home with your sister and cousin, okay? I have to go and deliver some

goods now. I cannot be late."

After dinner, Rachel's aunt was talking to her son, Mars. Mars didn't want his mother to go out, so he

held on to her firmly, unwilling to let her go.

"No... Don't go. Play with me... I don't like to play with cousin... she always plays with sister." His eyes

glared at Rachel with dissatisfaction.

Rachel smiled and turned to her aunt, "Aunt, give me the address. I'll deliver the goods for you."

Rachel's aunt, Laura Ruan, refused, "No... You've come here to relax. I can't let you work for me.

Moreover, you are new to this area. I can go, it's fine!"

Although she lived in a small town, she had heard the news about Rachel's kidnapping. Needless to

say, she cared about Rachel because she was family.

"I would start to feel embarrassed if you continue refusing my help. I can find the place with my phone.

I just need the address so I can deliver the goods quickly."

Rachel smiled to comfort her, then reached out her hand and softly touched Mars' little face.

"I'll go and leave your mother here to play with you. Are you happy?"

Mars nodded in response, immediately, then wiped the tears from his face and said to her hesitantly,

"Cousin... before you come back, can you buy me a burger?"

Rachel laughed and replied, "Okay!" Then she said to Laura, "Give me the address and the waybill.

Don't worry, I'll come back soon!"

Laura had no other choice. She needed to be there to care for her naughty son. Laura patted Mars on

the head and then handed the seafood that needed to be delivered and a handwritten waybill to

Rachel.

While Rachel was changing her clothes, Laura tied the goods on the motorcycle.

Rachel fitted the helmet on her head, and then hopped on the motorcycle.
