Love Together, Be With You Never

Chapter 51 Kieran and I Were Getting Engaged (Part Two)

I shook Kieran's hand hard out of distinct and reminded him in a low voice, "It is Ms. Everly!" Kieran,

however, acted as if he saw or heard nothing and walked straight past Everly.

"Kieran...." Her mouth open, Everly stood stiffly on the spot. The witnesses began to talk in whispers.

Everly admonished, looking gloomy, "No one can go home tonight!"

"What!" The poor worker bees sighed. Everly swept them coldly, and no complaint could be heard

again. Morale low, they all braced themselves for the long night of toil.

Everly turned around and stared at me with intense hatred as I walked farther away from her.

I stopped Kieran at the corner and said, "Why wouldn't you care to halt when Ms. Everly greeted you

just now?"

Kieran shot me a cold glance. "Why should I?"

"She likes you. Can't you be nice to her?" I said angrily.

Kieran snorted coldly with a smile, "Am I obligated to smile at everyone that is into me?"

He got me there. He didn't have the time or energy to answer all his fans' admiration. I forced a smile. It

was the same with how Marlon treated my deep affection for him like trash.

Alicia was the only one that could enjoy his love and care.

No one felt obliged to love you back. A person in love could find himself all alone in his imaginary

relationship.

"Rachael, your only job is to finish the show with me. You are in no position to point fingers at me. Next

time, you will pay the price for it!" When we entered the elevator, Kieran shook off my hand and coldly

warned me.

"I understand, Mr. Charles!" I couldn't help but chuckle, because I saw myself in Everly. The deep-

rooted anger from my past with Marlon found its way to Kieran. How ridiculous!

Kieran and I were in no way equal. I was merely his pawn!

Nevertheless, my reason triumphed, and I knew full well although I was a puppet and had no right to

choose, this was my only chance of retaliation. Therefore, I must make the best of it and get back what

the Cornells and Alicia owed me.

At the very least, I should take back my dignity!

"Mr. Charles, I apologize for all the mistakes I have made. From now on, I will be the actress you want.

But you said you would help me get revenge. You haven't forgotten about that, right, Mr. Charles?" I

looked at Kieran.

The right corner of Kieran's mouth curled up, and his scarlet eyes were imbued with coldness.

"Rachael, I said this was an opportunity, not a guarantee! I wouldn't lend my help in your revenge."

Kieran approached me like a demon. "Remember. I have never been merciful. I have no obligation to

save you from your suffering like some Buddha!"

"Sorry, I misunderstood your intentions. Message received!" I remembered the contract and asked him,

"Mr. Charles, are you really paying Marlon the 10.5 billion in the contract?"

Kieran had never mentioned it since the ceremony. 10.5 billion was too much for me. I barely knew how

much that was.

"I will take care of it. It is not your concern!" Then Kieran left.

I caught up with him. Although I was still worried, I felt much more at ease knowing that it was not my

problem. For some reason, Kieran would soothe my worry away, even though he struck me as even

more terrifying than a demon and had cruelly deceived me. Sometimes, I felt I might be a little crazy!

Along the way, I didn't speak and sat quietly in the passenger seat. Very quickly, we arrived at the

Cornell's. I humored Kieran, held his hand, and walked into the house.

In the dining room, the family of three and Marlon were enjoying their dinner.

"K, Kieran...." Marvin was shocked to see Kieran and dropped his chopsticks and bowl, the latter

broken to pieces. He quickly stood up to greet Kieran, "Mr. Charles, why didn't you tell us before you

came? Please, sit down. What are you waiting for? Set Mr. Charles' and Rachael's tableware

immediately!" Marvin said harshly to Shania.

Shania didn't look good, but then she put on a fake smile. "Mr. Charles, Rachael, please have a seat.

I'll fetch your tableware now!" As she spoke, she got up and left to get it.

I didn't say anything and quietly stood beside Kieran.

Kieran turned around and whispered in my ears, "Rachael, are you playing a zombie?"

I looked at Kieran doubtfully. Kieran hugged me and said coldly in a whisper, "Stop being a zombie!

You're playing my girlfriend, not a thousand-year-old mummy. If you are not up to the task, you'll have

to bear the consequences!"

"You guys are so adorable!" Marvin thought Kieran was saying sweet things to me and rubbed his Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

hands happily.

Kieran smiled without denying it. He pulled me to sit down next to him, but I was awkward. Although I

promised to be cooperative on the way, I was at a loss as to how to be a girlfriend. I was in the

Cornell's turf, and Marlon was there. In my four years with Marlon, he was never serious, so I didn't get

to know what being someone's girlfriend really felt like.

What was worse, my fake boyfriend Kieran made it a whole lot more difficult!

I couldn't help but look at Alicia, who was shyly snuggling up to Marlon's arm. Should I follow suit?

I glanced at Kieran, and my lip corners twitched. I was afraid Kieran would slap me away!

"What are you doing here again!" Marlon stared at Kieran, and then looked at me coldly from the corner

of his eye.

Kieran touched my head and hugged me into his arms. I avoided Marlon's gaze and demurely leaned

on Kieran's chest. Kieran stroked me and smiled leisurely, "I want to discuss with Marvin about our

marriage!"

"You and Rachael are getting married?" Marvin, who had just sat down, jumped up in excitement.

Shania was coming over with the tableware, and her expression froze when she heard the news. "It's

so fast!"

Kieran grabbed my hand and said, "No, I wish I could marry Rachael immediately. Rachael felt we

should slow down, so we got engaged first. Otherwise, I would be devastated if Rachael left me for

someone else!" Kieran gazed at me, his red eyes full of affection. However, I was almost scared to

death, so I quickly looked down, not knowing what to do next.

"The time and place of our engagement ceremony are the same as those of Alicia and Marlon. The

more the merrier. Right, Marvin?" Kieran looked into Marlon's eyes with smile in his gaze.

"Yes, yes, it is merrier!" Marvin was so happy that he danced around. He was both thrilled and shocked

that both his daughters could marry into money, especially his hateful enemy-like daughter.

"You barely know him, yet you call him Marvin. Is it appropriate?" Marlon said coldly.

"That's right, Mr. Charles. You and my sister just met. Marlon and I have spent years getting to know

each other. It's easy to fall in love, but marriage is a grave matter that can decide one's whole life. I

think you should mull this over, so that you wouldn't regret it later!"

"Alicia, what nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Charles and your sister fell in love at first sight. They

would live happily ever after when they get married!" Marvin harshly cut off Alicia and smiled at Marlon.

"You have visited us many times. How can we be strangers? We are a family now!"

"I'm leaving!" Marlon said to Alicia indifferently and didn't even look at Marvin, standing up to leave.

"I'll walk you!" Alicia also quickly got up and followed Marlon.

"Marlon, don't go. You just got here!" Marvin tried to keep him, but Marlon ignored him. Marvin wiped

his nose awkwardly and flattered Kieran, "Mr. Charles, you and Rachael should stay. It's rare for you to

come. You can sleep here tonight. I guarantee your room is clean!"

"Alright!" I thought Kieran would refuse, but Kieran actually agreed.

Marlon, who had just arrived at the door, suddenly stopped and turned back. "Then I will spend the

night here, too!"
