Chapter 132: Didn’t She p on You?


    Rachel didn’t know how to free herself from Keh’s arms. He pushed his luck and leaned down to


    kiss her.


    She turned her face away. The man’s kiss fell on her cheek naturally.


    “That’s enough, Keh. Why you’re always in charge of everything? Have you ever thought of my


    feelings?”


    She stared at him with tears.


    In fact, she didn’t know exactly what she was angry about. She just felt bad. She had been longing for


    those words for so long and now she got what she wanted from him. Even if what he said was taught


    by others, it was pretty enough to delight her. But she knew that the man never really understood her.


    What he understood was himself only.


    He didn’t care about her, and that’s why he had ignored her for three years. Once he changed his mind,


    he was determined to have her. What could he do if she was reluctant to stay by his side?


    What on earth had he ever understood?


    Keh watched her silently, his eyes darkened. He wiped tears for her gently and said, “Don’t cry. I


    just told you my thought. You have the right to choose.”


    He paused, sliding his fingers down to her jaw and lifting her head, “When we divorced, you asked me


    with the settlement whether I love you. If I said yes, would you still break up with me?”


    Rachel was stunned. Her eyes welling up with tears reflected the man’s beautiful face. She remained


    silent for a while, almost in a daze.


    After quite a long while, Keh frowned anxiously and called her name, “Rachel?”


    Her moisturized eyshes fluttered. After crying, the tip of her nose and her face blushed. She said


    with a sense of mockery lying in her nasal voice, “Well, you get quite a quick mind. How can you


    confirm that I love you even if I say I will stay? Do you think this kind of testing is funny? Tell me, how


    much could I trust you if you said yes then? Which one I should believe? My feelings for the past three


    years, or your one simple word?”


    Keh pinched his thin lips tightly together. His anxiety calmed down. He held her close, his chin on


    her head. “No matter which one you choose. I won’t leave you anymore,” he said.


    This was his promise. He had the patience for her. There was still time.


    Rachel lost her thoughts for a few seconds, then frowned a bit. It was funny and yet helpless. What


    made it funny was she herself. She loved him so much but now she was scared of him.


    What made it helpless was that it looked like the mature man was not empathetic enough to


    understand her inner feelings, and she didn’t know whether he was pretending to be innocent.


    She was supposed to be angry and scold him hard, but she had no energy and wasn''t in the mood for


    it. Cooling down, she patted his arms around her andined, “Thanks to you for getting my new


    hospital dress wet. You’d better change your wet clothes soon.”


    Keh left his arms immediately and helped her lie down. “Take a rest for a while. Don’t go anywhere.


    I’ll be right back soon,” he said.


    Rachel turned her back to him as soon as shey on the bed. She said nothing but a feeble utterance.


    He tucked her up and went out of the room.


    When she heard the door closed, Rachal turned back slowly. Her eyes gazed at the ceiling and then


    closed. The unspeakable pain and sadness flowed into her heart.


    Was she asking for too much?


    Keh stood for a moment on the roadside, lost in thoughts. He wanted to take out a cigarette as


    usual, but then he realized he had left it in the car. He stood there for another short while and then


    called Geoffrey.


    “Oh, man. What is it at nap time?” came Geoffrey’szy voice on the phone.


    “I told her.” Keh loosened his tie a bit. No emotion could be told in his deep eyes.


    “…”


    There was no further response from the other side. Geoffrey seemed to be stunned and it took a few


    seconds to go back to the conversation.


    He gave a mocking smile, “You told her? Didn’t she p on you?”


    Keh put his hand into the pocket, watching the rain outside. He stood straight, whispered, “No. But


    she didn’t look happy.”


    Geoffrey burst intoughter. Heughed a while and asked, “And she didn’t say anything?”


    Surely, she won’t be happy. If he talked to her a few days before, probably there was no divorce, not to


    mention the mess that followed.


    Looking at the distance, Keh squinted his eyes in a daze. After a moment’s silence, he retold


    Rachal’s response in simple words.


    Of course, he knew what she meant, literally and figuratively. It was just not the answer he wanted.


    That’s why he felt a sense of loss.


    Geoffreyforted him in a gloating tone, “So, it sounds like she wouldn’t ept you easily whether


    she admits her affection. Well, a long way to go, bro. You deserve it. But just think about your wife and


    your children, then everything you suffer is worthwhile.”


    Although, it was him who should be jealous.


    Geoffrey also wanted aplete family, but he had nothing at all. God damn it!


    …


    Lying on the bed, Rachel could not fall asleep for she was so excited when thinking about Keh’s


    words.


    Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door. She calmed herself down and put on a cold look, lying

    there absolutely motionless.


    The smell of meals caught her attention. She nced towards the door and noticed the man’s shirt.


    She frowned at once, “Why didn’t you changed your clothes? It’s getting chilly. You can’t expect me to


    feel sorry if you catch a cold.”


    Keh put the dried clothes on her bedside, turned around, and opened the lunch box for her. He


    smiled faintly, “I took a walk and it’s dried already. Besides, there are no clothes for me to change. Sit


    up. You should eat something.”


    Rachel wanted to answer back that he as a chairman could afford a thousand suit. But she forbore


    from doing so.


    Why she should say it out? Who cared if he changed clothes or not? She was not the person who may


    suffer anyway.


    She raised herself on her elbows and rested against the headboard like a good girl, without any


    arguments.


    Keh raised his eyebrows and asked, “Should I help you eat?”


    Rachel blushed and bit her lips. “I can do it by myself.”


    She snatched the lunch box from his hand, looked down at the dish, and poked it with her chopsticks.


    Actually, she had no appetite. She merely didn’t want to argue with him. It was useless and


    meaningless.


    After taking a couple of bites, she raised her head and looked at his fine-lined figure. “I feel better now.


    I’ll take a snap and then go back home in the afternoon. So, if you’re busy, then…”


    “So do I. We are on the same way,” he interrupted her, without lifting his head from the meal which he


    was eating attentively on the chair.


    She froze and didn’t say anything.


    Rachel reached home in the afternoon. Teresa was frightened by her scar on her forehead. She asked


    what happened as she was concerned about her condition.


    Rachel didn’t want her mother to ask too much. She shoved the pregnancy test report into her mother’s


    hand and went back to her room directly. She made a call to Lillian at once.


    “Oh, babe. I’m busy outside. I’ll call you backter,” said Lilian at a fast speed. She almost hung up.


    Rachel narrowed her eyes, said in a sullen and cold voice, “Lilian Chou, don’t you ever expect to


    contact me next time as long as you hang me up.”


    “…”


    Lilian surrendered. She giggled on the phone, “Oh my babe, my sweetheart… Are you going home


    right now? Or still out with Keh…”
