Chapter 88 Divorced Or Not, You Are Mine (1/2)

In the Streams Company, Outside the office of the Chief Executive, Carl said to Rachel, ”Rachel, Hiram is still occupied with his work. He will come and find you as soon as he is done with his work.” Carl stopped Rachel as she was about to break through into Hiram's office since there was an official meeting going on inside.

”Carl! You'd better let me in. I have to see Hiram immediately.” Rachel pushed him away. When she was just about to push the door to go in, the door opened from inside.

Three managers came out, but they walked straight towards the elevator without looking sideways. It was pretty clear that Hiram had instructed them to do that.

”Carl, let her in.” Hiram shouted from his office.

Rachel pushed the door and went in the office directly. Hiram immediately got up from his chair and walked towards her. He softly said, ”Rachel, sorry it's been a very busy day today. Why are you so anxious to see me? What's the matter?”

Rachel stopped in front of his desk, without taking another step forward. She stared at him right through his eyes concentrically.

”Give me the divorce agreement, ” Rachel said.

Hiram took a few steps toward her and stopped right in front of her. He stood very close to her and looked deep into her eyes. He glanced at her as the spring sun bathed her. As a reflex, he lifted his hand to play with her soft long hair. ”What's the hurry? You're already my wife. Are you afraid I will go back on my words?”

”Since you will not go back on your words, show me the divorce agreement right away.” Rachel continued. Rachel kept looking at him motionlessly. Not until this moment that she realized that this man was lying. Strangely, he lied so calmly.

Did that mean that, in the future, if he ever wanted to hide anything from her, he could easily succeed in it?

She was still uncertain on how to reply to what Lydia said a moment ago.

But after she thought it through, things were not really good.

Last time when they were in Hiram's study, he was supposed to take it out then. However, then he said that it was in his office. Hiram's memory was superb. It had been acknowledged by Joanna more than once. How could he forget such an important thing?

This time, she was not allowed to enter his office for various reasons. It seemed like he didn't want her to come here at all.

All these coincidences really made her suspicious.

Had that divorce agreement really been submitted?

Had she been divorced already?

However, before Lydia told her that, she was foolishly thinking that she was in a happy marriage!

Hiram's silence further aggravated her suspicion. The long-endured tears in her eyes tilted down. At that moment, even her last line of defence disappeared completely.
