Chapter 145 Hiram''s Intensified Jealousy


    "Rachel, may I invite you for the second dance?" Wayne asked, holding out his right arm to Rachel.


    Rachel put down her fork and stood up. She said to him with an embarrassed smile, "Wayne, I''m


    eating. Can you dance with Celine?"


    With a forced smile on his face, Wayne looked at her and said, "Rachel, it''s just a dance."


    "Rachel, since you already agreed to it, you should dance with him, " Celine said,ing over. She


    grabbed Rachel''s arm and whispered, "You can also take this opportunity to rify something. Oh, and


    I saw Hiram earlier. Is he here too?


    Anyway don''t worry about him. Since he''s ying cards downstairs, he can''t see what is going on up


    here."


    Then, Celine patted Rachel on the shoulder and said, "Besides, a dance with Wayne won''t take very


    long, and Hiram won''t happen to see it."


    Hearing Celine''s words, Rachel sighed and took a step towards Wayne, who immediately took her


    hand and walked her to the center of the dance floor.


    In time with the beautiful melody of the music, Wayne put one of his hands on Rachel''s shoulder in a


    decent way and adjusted his steps to Rachel''s.


    He looked at her affectionately and said, "It''s been a long time. You still look so beautiful."


    "Wayne, Celine is a nice girl, and she doesn''t have a boyfriend. You can start with being friends,


    actually, " Rachel said, without beating around the bush.


    Wayne looked at her and said with a sigh, "But I still can''t forget you. When I met you for the first time


    on the blind date, I knew you were the one. You''re the person that I dream of marrying all the time."


    Feeling embarrassed, Rachel looked away. However, she failed to notice that she had brushed past


    Daniel, who was dancing next to them with a woman. Their conversation immediately caught Daniel''s


    attention.


    "Rachel, can you give me a second chance? I won''t leave you this time, " Wayne said. He couldn''t hide


    his feelings for her anymore. He had kept these words to himself for two years, But he had never had a


    chance to tell her.


    Since they had met again by chance at a singles party, Wayne thought that it must be fate. He wanted


    to tell her about how much he regretted leaving her and the deep love he had had for her for the past


    two years.


    "Rachel, I still have your phone number. I''ve wanted to call you so many times, but I didn''t have the


    nerve. I was scared that you wouldugh at me and refuse me. But God brought us together today, I


    know it. He''s given me a second chance, "


    Wayne said excitedly. Then, he took a step closer to Rachel and continued, "Please give me a second


    chance too. I''ll prove to you that I''m a trustworthy man who will give you happiness."


    Hearing what Wayne said, Rachel stepped back and took a deep breath. She didn''t want to say


    something cruel to him and break his heart, but it seemed that Wayne wouldn''t give up wooing her as


    long as he thought he had a chance.


    "Wayne, I''m sorry. What''s done is done. I, I''m already married, " Rachel said.


    However, Wayne shook his head and said, "You''re just kidding, right? I know that all the blind dates you


    went on have failed. So who did you marry?"


    "She married me!"


    Shouted Hiram as he quickly came over and dragged her close to him. Then, he said to Rachel coldly,


    "Rachel, it''s only been a few moments and you''ve already begun to dance with another guy intimately.


    Have you considered my feelings?"


    Rachel raised her head and found Hiram ring at her. He had a tight grip on her arm.


    "Who are you? Let Rachel go!" Wayne said with a frown when he saw Hiram drag Rachel forcefully.


    Then, he walked towards Hiram, wanting to help Rachel out of his grasp.


    Wayne was so obsessed with Rachel that he had failed to notice that Hiram had been with her in the

    casino downstairs. After all, he had only had eyes for her.


    Daniel, who was standing not far from them, quietly left with his dancing partner to stay away from the


    trouble. Then, he took a ss of wine from a waiter and began to watch them from a safe distance.


    Holding Rachel in his arms, Hiram said angrily, "Didn''t you hear me? I am her husband, her man and


    the father of her child."


    "No way! Rachel can''t be married. Stop kidding around here, " Wayne shouted. Wayne couldn''t believe


    it.


    Although he didn''t agree with what his mother had done, it was true that no man Rachel had dated was


    bold enough to marry her.


    So, this man couldn''t be her husband.


    "Huh?"


    Hiram responded to him with a cold smile. Then, he slowly raised Rachel''s chin, put his face close to


    hers and said, "Rachel, didn''t you already tell him that you''re married?"


    Rachel nced quickly at both of them and tried to push Hiram away, but he was holding her too


    tightly. "Hiram, let go of me. Let me talk to him nicely, " she said.


    "Nicely? How? By intimately dancing with him?" Hiram retorted with a cold smile. Then, he abruptly


    leaned in and kissed her.


    The kiss took Rachelpletely by surprise. She hadn''t ever imagined that Hiram would kiss her in


    public. Although her view of the room was blocked by Hiram''s face, Rachel could still feel all the people


    in the room had stopped dancing to watch them.


    "Um... Hir..." Rachel tried toin. But before she could finish her words, Hiram''s tongue quickly


    slid into her mouth, making her forget everything around her.


    The kisssted a few more moments before Hiram reluctantly released her.


    Rachel saw


    Wayne staring at them with both surprise and sadness.


    Although she hadn''t intended to hide anything from Wayne, Hiram''s approach was too hurtful.


    Just as she was thinking this, the sound of apuse broke the silence.


    With a smile on his pretty face, Daniel pped his hands and walked towards them. He whistled and


    said, "Mr. Rong, that was a high-profile way of publicly disying your affection. It''s certainly worth


    learning from."


    Rachel nced at Daniel and thought to herself, ''Why does he have toplicate things even more?''


    "Indeed. But first, you need to have a wife, " Hiram said with a cold smile on his face. Then, he put his


    arm around Rachel''s shoulder, sneered at Wayne and walked towards the gate of the club with Rachel.


    "Wait, Celine is still inside, " Rachel protested.


    "Don''t worry. She''s an adult, she knows how to get back home, " Hiram replied.


    And with that, Rachel was forcefully dragged out of the club by Hiram. When they got to his car, he


    pushed Rachel into the passenger seat and drove away.


    Rachel said to Hiram angrily, "Hiram, didn''t you say that you wouldn''t interfere with my normal


    socialization with men?"


    "You''re right. I won''t interfere with the normal ones. But do you really think that was a normal one?


    Anyone could tell from looking at Wayne''s eyes that he wanted to eat you alive, " Hiram replied coldly.


    "Nonsense, you''re the one who wants to eat me alive, " Rachel mumbled.


    Her head swirling with thoughts of what had just happened, she hadn''t noticed that Hiram had stopped


    the car in a secluded dark alley.


    In the darkness, Rachel suddenly felt Hirameing close to her.
