Chapter 128 His Love Letter
Nowadays, it had bemon for couples to sign a prenuptial agreement to protect their assets
and interests. This was especially true for long-standing and wealthy families like the Rong''s.
"Rachel." Hiram stared at the coldness in her eyes, his heart started to feel a bit aching, just like a
needle was quietly but deeply and repeatedly pricking it. "If you really want it in your heart, then I can

draft one. But ... I just think there is no need."
Rachel turned her eyes from the night sky to Hiram, and gave him a smile, "Don''t say that. We have
our future ahead of us and who knows what will happen during that time? What if you get tired of my
no-longer beautiful appearance? What if you meet someone else and go behind my back and have an
affair on the side? At least, I need to provide my child and myself with a guarantee."
"Rachel..." Hiram frowned.
Though it waste at night when all was still, they were not certain whether someone else would
overhear their conversation in the yard.
"That''s nothing. I believe that people should be realistic considering the high divorce rate that we have
now. And we were almost ... So, I feel that we need a prenuptial agreement in case we..."
Before Rachel barely finished her words, Hiram abruptly stood up, leaned across the table, and kissed
her on the lips to calm her. She didn''t need to say anything more.
"Baby, I hate this. If you have decided to draft one, I will just cooperate. But, never talk about things that
haven''t happened yet. They are extremely undesirable. Okay?"
He gasped lightly as he ran his thumb across her lips.
Rachel felt a bit ufortable because of his dubious posture, so she moved back a bit and said, "I
know that these things are not pleasant to hear. However, we can never tell what would happen in the
future. Right?"
Her eyes twinkled with different emotions. Rachel looked down and muttered.
"Will you hold the same conviction if you fall in love with a younger and more charming woman some
day in the future?"
Women usually believed that if a man didn''t love you anymore, he would no longer care about anything
concerning you.
Ah...
Her mouth suddenly hurt.
Hiram put a finger on her lip, pressing her lip against her teeth, which might mildly hurt. "Though it''s
uncertain whether I will love another woman or not in future. I know that there are very few in this world
that have better self-control than me.
So, you never need to worry. I won''t promise you anything, because even the sincerest promises in the
world are meant to be broken. But do know this, that I will try my best to love you every day."
Rachel stared at his eyes. Though there were no stars outside and the moon had not risen, his eyes
were much brighter than all of them, giving a pure glow from within him.
Then the only thing Rachel could see was his seriousness.
After a while, Rachel stretched out her hands and wrapped her arms around Hiram''s neck, saying with
a smile, "Good. Keep it up. I''ll see if you can stay handsome for the whole night!"
His posture, leaning across the table and holding her chin, was indeed very handsome and attractive.
Hearing her wisecracks, Hiramughed out loud. He hugged her waist and said, "Let''s go back home
tonight. I''m flying to the US tomorrow and I have to stay there for at least three days."
Rachel finally let him go. She stood up and stretched, "Wait a moment."
She quietly went to Fannie''s room to say goodbye. She had intended to open the door secretly to see if
Fannie had slept, but a voice suddenly came out from the room, "Just go. There is no need toe in.
I''m totally fine here!"
Hearing those words, Rachel smiled, and looked back at the man in the yard.
The handsome man standing there was smiling at her. His angr features and the faint smile really
made him quite gentle and cultivated.
It was never too much topare him to a male god in the mythical stories.
"Come on. Let''s go!" Hiram steadily walked towards her with a doting smile. Then he gripped her hand
tightly as they walked to the gate.
On the way back, Rachel remembered something. She took out the keys from her pocket and handed
them back to Hiram, "Here you go. You can have them back."
Hiram nced at the keys, without any intention to take them. "What do you mean? I''ve already given
them to you. Why would I take them back?"
"It''s enough for the show for everyone to see. There is no need to really give them to me. Come on,
take them back." Rachel added. ''Chading over at that time to give the keys to her was to let those
people around see it. He could have given them to me at any time, '' she thought.
Hiram saw that she insisted in returning the keys. He didn''t open his mouth. Instead, he took the string
of keys and threw them out onto the grass.
"Hey! Are you crazy? Are you really so fond of throwing things?" Rachel pushed him away and ran to
the grass to pick up the keys.
Luckily, the chain of keys was fairly big, so it didn''t take much trouble to find them. After picking up the
keys, Rachel put them back in her pocket instead of giving them back to Hiram.
"Keep in mind that I will never take back whatever I give to you. Or they will end up just like those keys,
" said Hiram in a firm and assertive tone. Then he held Rachel''s shoulder and continued to walk toward
the house.
Rachel gave him a cold stare. It was quite true that Hiram couldn''t be praised. She admired his
tenderness just now, but as a whole he was a tyrant.
After returning to the Rong''s house, they, of course, went straight to Hiram''s room.
The Rong house was the old-fashioned wooden building type, with modern technology toplement
it. The interior was specially designed to keep it warm in winter and cool in the summer.
Well, not to mention the bed.
"When will youe up? After studying the wall, you studied the bed. Then when will you study me?"
While Rachel was looking around the room, Hiram was already lying on the bed waiting for her. He
turned on one side towards her with one hand supporting his head, feeling quite jealous.
Were these antiques more valuable than him?
After all, he owned all of these things.
With a sharp eye, Rachel found apartment at a foot of the bed. It was almostpletely hidden.
Curiously, she went to it and opened it. She reached in with her hand and touched something. Feeling
surprised, she quickly withdrew her hand. But her curiosity was strong so she reached in again and
was able to take it out for a closer look. She tucked her hair behind her ear as she waved her hand to
beckon Hiram to leave some space.
"As for you, I will studyter. I want to study this first. Do you think we ordinary people could see these
things like this often? Wow, there is something in here..."
Hiram looked at what she had in her hand.
Then he frowned. ''Where did those thingse from? Why do they look familiar?'' He thought.
Rachel looked closer to examine it. Then she paused.
''What are these?'' She thought.
"Oh look. How many beads are in here? They look so beautiful! And here''s a letter too?" Rachel held
up a handful of colored ss beads in the light to see them better. They might be toys that Hiram left
around when he was young.
But, she was more interested in the letter.
"Oops... Don''t take the letter away." Hiram, now also curious, tried to take it from Rachel, but she was
quick enough to wave it away from his reach.
Hiram had already forgotten about the letter. It had probably been there for over a decade. He had
gone ande back several times in his younger days, so it was supposed that the letter was put
there at that time.
As soon as Rachel started reading the contents of the letter, her eyes brightened. It was a love letter!
However, the letter looked so old that Rachel couldn''t tell from the handwriting if it was for Hiram, or it
was written by him.
