Chapter 79 Finally Watching Hiram’s MV (2/2)
She didn't realize that all her movements were being noticed from the tail of his eye. He pretended that he hadn't seen anythi
It all starts on that fateful night.
When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…
”I don’t want a divorce!”
”I don’t want a divorce!”
”I did no such thing!”
Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...

”Afterwards, she kept asking me out or showing up at my apartment, until the job was done. That day the whole staff gathered together for a celebration. The whole staff was having dinner, and she got a little drunk. To everyone's surprise, she came to me and announced that she loved me in front of everyone. She said she wanted to marry me, and blah blah blah.”
Rachel listened quietly and until then, she felt sour in her heart. But she couldn't help asking, ”What happened later?”

”Then, I get to ask you a question now. Do you, do you love me?”
Startlingly, Rachel raised her head and looked directly into his eyes.
