Chapter 46 I Don't Like The Verbal Gratitude
"Hiram, thanks for your help today!"
Rachel thanked Hiram inside the car. Though Hiram was her nominal husband, they both clearly knew
their real relationship.
She thought it was just reasonable to thank him.
"I don't like the verbal gratitude. I hope that you can express your gratitude to me in action." Hiram
looked at her with a slight smile on his face.
Rachel was a bit shocked by the expression in his eyes. She looked away quickly and said, "Really?
Manager Zhang is an employee of the Streams Company. You can also take this as a chance to
eradicate a bad employee from your company. See? You can also benefit from this. I also didn't ask
you for help. You helped me willingly."
"How dare you talk to me like that?"
Hiram glanced at Rachel who sat beside him. He was busy with his business that day, but he still chose
to find time to help her. However, according to her words, it seemed that he helped her just because he
was free, having nothing to do.
"What I said is right. I'm afraid that no company will hire me after you appeared at my workplace today.
I think I'm going to lose my job because of you. Why do you think I should thank you?" Rachel didn't
intend to thank him. She didn't want him to feel that she owed him a favor.
After he glanced at Rachel who tried to argue with him, Hiram raised his hand to pinch her face and
said, "Why are you so ungrateful? There are many companies under our Rong's group of companies.
You can work at any of them.
You can work at my company and choose any position you like. You can also get high salary there."
Rachel massaged her face and felt that Hiram pinched her so hard. She looked up at him and said, "I
would think about it carefully. After all, finding a job is an important and serious thing. I can't just
casually choose a position in your company. If that happens, I'm worried that when you get angry at me Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
someday, you will throw me out of your company."
Rachel was afraid that she would be thrown to the dust bin just like what Hiram did to her things before.
"Rachel, can you say something nice? If you say something to please me, I might also help you when
you get into trouble next time. Don't talk to me arrogantly. I don't like that." Hiram said those words
while knocking her forehead.
When Hiram helped other people, they were deeply grateful for his kindness. Only Rachel ignored him
and didn't show any appreciation to him.
"Hiram, I will be grateful if you don't bring any trouble to me. I have something to show you..."
The car was still moving along the road. Rachel took a notebook out of her bag, turned to a certain
page and gave it to Hiram.
Hiram took it from her confusingly. He saw the things that she recorded on it.
It was actually a list of her unpleasant experiences because of his misdeeds.
On April 8, she got injured outside the X building and was sent to the hospital. This was because of
Hiram's enemy who took revenge against him.
On April 18, her things, which she had kept for three years, were thrown to the trash can outside
Hiram's villa. She even drew a crying emoji at the end of the sentence.
On April 19, Hiram badly treated her. She stayed outside until midnight that caused her a high fever.
On April 23, she was kidnapped by Jay and his allies. She was even nearly killed! And so on…!
"Do you see that? I have been injured and have gone through terrible experiences because of you.
How unlucky I am!" Rachel took the notebook from his hand and said angrily, "We just know each other
for a short time. If I have to live with you all my life, I'm afraid that I have to live a miserable life. I might
even die very soon."
Hiram, who was accused of doing a lot of bad things to her, wore a long face.
He saw those words in the notebook and didn't deny them. Those things really happened because of
him.
"I haven't asked you to repay for these things. I know I'm so unlucky for suffering these terrible things.
You only did a little favor for me today. How could you be so shameless to ask me to thank you?"
After Hiram heard her, Hiram sighed and said, "Okay. To cover up my misdeeds, I will try my best to
compensate you from now on."
When she saw that he said those words sincerely, Rachel got less furious. She put her notebook back
into her bag and listened to him.
"I will go to A City for a business trip tomorrow. It is a tourist destination. You have three days off, right?
You can go with me.
I will pay for all the expenses. If I have no time, I will ask one of my people to accompany you."
Rachel had planned to go out for a trip when her superior gave her three days off. Hiram's invitation
was just timely satisfying. Moreover, she wouldn't spend money on her food, accommodation and travel
with Hiram's offer. It seemed to be really great.
"Okay! I can give you this chance to compensate me, " She said calmly, managing to restrain her
excitement.
Hiram looked at her happy face and slightly smiled. That time, the car had just entered the Tulip
Palace. "I will come back and have dinner here tonight. Can you prepare a dinner for me?"
Rachel couldn't help but laugh when she heard him saying those words relaxingly. Then, she took a
pen and paper out of her bag.
"What do you want to eat? I will prepare a wonderful dinner for you because you helped me today."
Hiram took the pen and paper from her hand and began to write down the dishes he wanted.
Meanwhile, he also said, "I don't eat hot and spicy food. But if you like such food, you can make them
slightly spicy."
After he finished writing, he gave the paper and pen back to Rachel. "These are my favorite foods. You
may check it and think if you can make them or not. If you can't cook those dishes, you can cook the
dishes that you already know how to cook."
I will try to come back home early tonight. Maybe before seven o'clock."
Rachel saw in the list the two dishes that she never cooked before. She wondered if she could cook
them by searching for the food recipes and instructions online.
Rachel liked to challenge herself. Now that Hiram wrote down the dishes he liked, she would try her
best to prepare them.
Rachel changed her clothes and freshened up as soon as she came back to the villa. After that, she
took a shopping bag and headed for the supermarket outside the Tulip Palace.
"Okay, mother. I see. Don't worry..." She spoke over the phone while she took some vegetables from
the vegetable rack and put them in the shopping basket.
"I can't be at ease. You are my daughter. I'm worried about you all the time. I plan to go to the Rong
family's house within these days. Your injury has almost completely healed. You should have your
wedding soon."
Fannie had not slept well these days. Though Rachel already got her marriage license, she didn't hold
her wedding yet. She also didn't invite their relatives and friends to attend the wedding. It wouldn't be a
complete marriage without the wedding ceremony.
Rachel stopped taking things from the shelves and put her phone on the other hand. Then she said,
"Mother, we've already talked about it. We don't have to be anxious about holding the wedding. Can
you give us some more time to know each other well?"
"You can do that after the wedding. Besides, you can have complete marriage, and get best wishes
from our friends and relatives if you hold the wedding soon!" Fannie disapprovingly said.
"But, mother..." Rachel looked very restless and exclaimed.
"Rachel, listen to me! You have stayed with Hiram all these days, so he should treat you as his wife
and hold the wedding."
