Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 240 You Are Going To Have A Wedding Ceremony Tomorrow

About a week later...

Rachel was busy in her studio. Several important matters that she had to address had piled up during

her several days of absence, so she'd come to the studio very early.

However, just when Rachel had finished half of her work, Carl came.

"Rachel, why are you still working? I tried to call you, but I couldn't get through. I've been looking all

over for you like a madman!" Carl said, stepping into the studio with sweat all over his face.

Rachel, who was signing contracts, raised her head to look at him in confusion, and then said,"I forgot

to charge my phone. What's the hurry? I'll be home at night. What happened?"

Rachel's confusion surprised Carl for a moment. He scratched his head and said,"Rachel, don't you

know that your wedding ceremony is tomorrow?

Didn't you see that everybody in the family is busy with this matter for the whole week? Since your

body condition won't allow you to travel abroad, Hiram decided to hold the wedding ceremony at home.

Now, everything is prepared, including the church, the wedding invitations and your wedding dress.

And the ceremony will be at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Rachel, didn't you know this?"

Rachel was so surprised by his words that she lost control of her pen and drew a half circle on the

document she was signing.

Hiram had mentioned the wedding ceremony a week ago at his mother's birthday dinner. However,

Rachel hadn't taken his words seriously, thinking that he was saying it just to deliberately irritate his

father. And since he hadn't spoken to her about it afterwards, she hadn't given it any thought.

But now, it turned out that Hiram had really meant it.

"Let me call Hiram first... No, Carl, drive me to Streams Company. I'll talk to him there." Rachel hastily

signed several important documents and then asked Celine to make some arrangements for her.

Ten minutes later...

When Rachel reached Streams Company and got out of the car, she immediately wrapped her blue

wool coat tighter around herself. It was already late autumn and she was only wearing a cream-colored

dress under the coat, with her ankles exposed to the cold air. Getting off the car had made her feel a

certain chill that accompanied her till she got onto the lift.

"Hello, Mrs. Rong," Ben said.

"Where is Hiram?"

Rachel asked Ben, stepping out of the lift.

"Mr. Rong is having a meeting with Mr. Zhuo. The meeting is expected to end in 30 minutes," Ben said.

Rachel immediately guessed what they were discussing about. Since the planning for the Cliff

Mountain project had come to its final stage, Hiram and his staff must be discussing about a few

details.

She hesitated for a few moments and said,"Take me there, I want to know what they're discussing

about."

Although she hadn't participated in the final planning for the project, it wouldn't hurt anyone if she just

sat there and listened to their discussion. After all, she had contributed to the Cliff Mountain project too.

"Okay, please follow me," Ben said as he led Rachel to the meeting room.

When Rachel reached the meeting room, she found that everyone who had participated in the Cliff

Mountain project was there.

On the seat of the host sat Hiram, who was listening carefully to Daniel's presentation. The old

engineer sat beside Hiram, while the rest of the members of the two teams sat on both sides of the

table.

Rachel stepped in, smiled at Daniel and said,"Please continue. I'm here just to sit in on the meeting."

She sat on the assistant's seat behind Hiram.

Hiram, who was wearing a light-colored plaid shirt today, had had a serious look on his handsome face

during the meeting, as he always did during work. However, when he saw Rachel, his expression

became gentler. He glanced at her in greeting before turning back to listen to Daniel's presentation

again.

Rachel sat there and watched the sliding pictures on the screen. Although she had participated in the

planning for the Cliff Mountain project, she still felt amazed seeing the picture of the full view of the

project on the screen.

Cliff Mountain was expected to be built into a big and comprehensive tourist resort, providing tourists

with services such as entertainment and food. Because of the special mountainous terrain in the

locality, they were planning to build structures on cliff platforms and construct a bridge that connected

two mountains. A mega Ferris Wheel would overlook the entire landscape of Cliff Mountain.

They were also planning to turn the lower valley area into a small town with classic scenery, featured

by small bridges and rivers.

Apart from that, they were also intending to design many interesting scenic spots scattered across the

Cliff Mountain area. Tourists might have to spend at least 7 or 8 days at Cliff Mountain if they wanted to

visit the entire area.

After hearing the presentation of the entire planning for Cliff Mountain, Rachel felt that once the

construction was completed, this tourist resort would be so attractive that no other tourist attraction at

home could come close to it.

"Mr. Rong, this is the entire development planning for the Cliff Mountain project. The project is expected

to end in 3 years if we start construction at the beginning of next year," Daniel concluded.

If it wasn't for the special mountainous terrain of the Cliff Mountain, the construction time would be

shorter.

Hiram thought for a while and then said,"Well, it's good. I remember that during our research, we found

a natural cave there. You can include that cave in our plan and make a tunnel that goes through it. It's

better if that tunnel connects to our important scenic spots."

Daniel thought for a moment, and then agreed with a nod. "Okay, no problem."

"Dismissed," Hiram said, putting the project plan down on the table. Then, he stood up and held out

one of his hands to Rachel.

Seeing this, Rachel nodded to Penny, Millay and the other team members that she knew with a smile.

Then, she took Hiram's hand and walked out of the meeting room with him. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"It's marvelous. I never thought that the remote and underdeveloped mountain regions we saw could

become so beautiful after the construction is completed. But it must be expensive, right?" Rachel

asked, the full view of the Cliff Mountain plan still lingering in her mind.

"Of course. We estimated that the cost will be over 10 billion dollars. Although the local government will

give us a little financial support, the money won't be too much," Hiram said. As a matter of fact, He

wouldn't have investigated into this project in person if it was not for the large volume of money it

involved.

Rachel was surprised by Hiram's words. But then again, this tourist attraction would be a lucrative

business when it was finished.

It was possible that no other company dared to take on this big project.

'After three years, my children will be 2 years old. By that time, I can take them with me to the Cliff

Mountain resort. It sounds so beautiful.

Oh, I almost forget why I am here, ' Rachel thought to herself.

In the CEO's office...

"Hiram, why didn't you tell me about the wedding ceremony tomorrow?" Rachel asked, glaring at

Hiram. Why was this man always acting first and talking later? In fact, this time, he hadn't even told her

anything about it.

This wasn't the first time he was acting this way.

Sitting on the couch, Hiram pulled Rachel onto his lap and said,"Didn't I tell you about it? I remember

saying it very clearly in front of my parents a week ago.

I told you that the time is perfect for holding a wedding ceremony as the weather is fine recently, and

you agreed."

Rachel took off her shoes, put her arms around Hiram's neck and made herself comfortable on his lap.

"But, I thought you were irritating your father on purpose. Why didn't you say anything about it

afterwards?"

Hiram smiled. Then, he ran his hand through Rachel's silky hair and said,"I have everything handled.

All you have to do is be my bride.

What's more, I didn't want you to worry about it. Since you're pregnant now, what if the stress got to

you and you hurt yourself?"

Rachel frowned. She stared at Hiram with her big black eyes and said,"But a wedding ceremony is held

only once in a lifetime, and I haven't prepared for it yet."

"Who said so? If you want, I'll hold another wedding ceremony for you after our children are born. By

that time, our two children can be our page boys," Hiram said gently.

"Fine. But can you please not invite people that I don't know? Can you just invite family members and

friends?" Rachel asked, because just the thought of entertaining a bunch of strangers at her wedding

ceremony was giving her a headache.

Of course, Hiram had already considered this. Right then, his phone rang, so he picked up the call and

pressed the mute button before saying,"You don't have to worry about that. I only invited a few

important family members and friends. There won't be too many people at our wedding ceremony."

After hearing his words, Rachel felt relieved and said,"That's good. Otherwise, it would be so tiresome

for us to toast to unfamiliar guests table by table."

However, she frowned when she saw Hiram turn his attention to his phone again. She got down from

his lap and sat next to him.
