Chapter 403 Really Willing To Bite Me
Chapter 403 Really Willing To Bite Me
Rachel couldn't believe her ears.
She stood rooted to that spot and even forgot to straighten her back. Then Hiram spoke again,"how
could you be in a hurry even in my dream? Don't leave!
Come back to me!"
Although he was too drunk to be fully conscious, he spoke in the same, unmistakably aggressive tone.
Out of habit, Rachel just turned around and walked back to his bed. She was aware in her mind that
she had to leave immediately but her body just reacted to what her heart was telling her.
"What are you waiting for, honey? Come on! Come to my arms!" Hiram said, holding out his hands.
This sounded sweet and utterly different from his cold complaints just earlier. Rachel hesitated and
glanced at the door.
She wanted to hold him as well but was afraid that Chad and Carl would walk in, all of a sudden.
"Why do you keep looking at the door? What are you thinking? Are you afraid of being seen by them?
Don't worry about them. We're married! Come on! I'm waiting!" he urged and gazed at her with misty
eyes. He struggled to get up and pulled her into his arms as if he had the strength to stay balanced. He
failed and fell back on the bed.
No longer thinking clearly, Rachel let herself also fall on the bed and lay beside him, fixing her eyes on
his face without a blink.
Since she came into his room, she just wanted to cherish this stolen moment with him, and comfort
him.
But to her surprise, Hiram leaned over her the moment she lay down. He ripped her shirt and put his
mouth on her shoulder, biting her deeply.
"OUCH!!!"
Rachel cried out painfully. Afraid of being heard by the two men in the next room, she bit her lips in
order not to cry out again. "Hiram, relax your bite! It's killing me! Please!" she whimpered and held her
breath.
Hiram let her go and then stared at her frowning,"It's killing you? Do you know how I feel inside? I have
been killed thousands of times by you! Have you ever thought about my feelings?
I wonder to myself, despite what you have done, why I can't leave you. I kept thinking of it from time to
time and try to figure out why. Why can't I get over you? Why I can't even stay mad at you? You know
what? I'll show you. Since you are the one who left, I won't make it easy for you to come back! You
keep this in your mind!
Listen carefully! This is your last chance. You'd better come back to me now, or else ..."
Seeing his furious face, Rachel couldn't tell whether he was serious or he was just bluffing.
"Otherwise, what? What will you do?" She asked carefully but afraid of what she would hear next.
Hiram pinched her chin and snorted,"I'll find another woman, to be my wife and the mother of your kids.
Then you can stay wherever the fuck you want and never come back!"
Rachel's heart ripped as if he pushed a knife into it.
The next second, she burst out.
"Fuck off! Hiram! Do you think I chose to leave you out of my own accord? I'm telling you now! If your
father didn't kneel down in front of me, and if your mother didn't beg me again and again, I wouldn't
have done it! I was for your own good, for the sake of your father to live longer!" She couldn't help but
yell at him.
Out of rage, she pushed him away, got off the bed, headed to the door and ran out. She rubbed her
painful shoulder on her way back to her room.
To her relief, Chad and Carl were not around, or they would have run into her.
The first thing she did when she entered her room was check how her shoulder was. She knitted her
brows and murmured,"What a monster! How could he bite me?
It's bleeding!"
Her white shirt was stained with blood.
"Hey there! Can you tell me where did you go just now?" Marlon asked as he knocked on the open
door. Rachel turned around and found that she forgot to close it.
Marlon was standing there with his arms across his chest, looking at her pulling her sleeve down
curiously.
Rachel immediately pulled her shirt back. "It's none of your business! Please go away and close the
door for me. It's too late and I believe that I'm off duty now. Please respect my privacy, Boss!"
Marlon snorted at her twice and then replied,"Did you have gunpowder for dinner? I was just asking
where you were tonight, and why it took you so long? I think that it's a reasonable question as your
boss. I'm worried about you!"
"Thank you for your concern, Boss! But I want to leave the first thing tomorrow morning. No, as soon as
possible... Now I wonder if you could do me this favor, Boss! I have to go now!" Rachel rambled quickly,
packing her things, grabbing her clothes from the cabinet.
"What?" Marlon asked.
He was confused and couldn't figure out what just happened.
In the end, she was able to convince Marlon to also pack his stuff and check out. They left the hotel
that very night.
"Rachel, tell me the truth! This is hard to believe! Are you saying that you ran into your ex at the hotel?"
Marlon asked her with such doubt. What she said to him about what happened at the hotel must be a
lie.
"Why would I lie to you? Listen, he could become violent and always overacts on me. I'd better get
away from him as far as I can!" Rachel had no reason to lie.
She was fully aware of what Hiram was capable of. When he's sober enough, he would realize that it
was really her who showed up in front of him. Then, it would be too late for her to leave.
Since she had decided to go, she had to try harder to stay away from him. If he caught up with her,
everything she had done would have been for nothing.
By the time she got back to her place in North Sea City, it was one o'clock in the morning. Rachel took
a deep sigh of relief and collapsed on her bed.
It would not be that easy for Hiram to find her since he was also a stranger here. Besides, everything
here was different from H City.
——
Meanwhile, Hiram woke up sober in his hotel room.
The first thing he did was smell the quilt on him. It was the same as the smell on his own body but there
was a faint scent of Rachel too.
He got up from the bed right away and walked around in the room. He searched behind the curtains,
the bathroom and living room, but found nobody.
"Come out, Rachel!
Do you hear me?" he shouted.
He flung the door open, walked out and continued yelling out in the corridor.
Rachel, I know you're here! Show yourself!"
Hearing Hiram yelling out in the hall, Chad and Carl opened their door hurriedly and rushed out.
"Hiram, What happened?" Carl asked worriedly as he approached him. He wondered why Hiram woke
up so early this time. Usually, he would sleep all night. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Hiram grabbed Carl's collar and yelled,"She was here. Rachel was here. Did you see her? Tell me!"
"No, I didn't. You were dreaming again! How could she be here? Hiram, please go back to your room!"
Carl replied, still spaced out from having to get up quickly.
He paid no attention to Hiram's reaction.
It was not the first time that Hiram had gotten up in the middle of night, looking for Rachel all over the
place.
It happened once or twice after she left.
"No, it wasn't a dream. I saw her clearly on my bed!" Hiram murmured to himself. He let go of Carl and
began to knock on the doors one by one.
"Come out, Rachel!
Honey? Please!"
"Calm down, Hiram! Take it easy! Listen to me, you got really drunk tonight. What you saw was just
Rachel in your dreams. Carl and I regularly checked on you to make sure that everything was okay, but
we didn't see her! Trust us!" Chad came closer and rubbed the back of Hiram's head to calm him down.
Hiram glanced at him coldly and said,"I'm telling you now, that I saw her, and I mean it! Go and fetch all
the room cards for this floor. I'll check all the rooms myself! Go now!"
"Okay Hiram, okay! I'm going!" Chad nodded to him. He knew that he'd better do as Hiram asked
because he wouldn't listen to him when he was pissed off. He got in the elevator and went to the front
desk for the cards.
He returned a moment later.
This hotel was one of the subordinate companies of Streams Company, and it was a piece of cake for
Chad to get all the room cards for Hiram.
Hiram opened one room after another looking for Rachel.
But he didn't see a single person, not to mention Rachel.
"I've told you, it must have been a dream. If she were here, how could Chad and I not run into her? Go
back to your room and sleep this off, please!" Carl said to Hiram, putting an arm over his shoulder. He
saw how disappointed Hiram was and it made him feel awful.
Holding out his hand to knead his throbbing temple, Hiram closed his eyes slowly.
He began wondering whether it was just an illusion.
He opened his eyes suddenly as if something lit up in his mind. Immediately, He said to Chad and
Carl,"Let's go and see the surveillance videos!
Look at the camera here in the hall! Let's see whether she's entered my room this evening, and then
we'll know whether I was dreaming or not."
