Chapter 231 A Short Video
"Yes! Good idea! I'm going to buy it right now." In that same moment Fannie stood up, ready to go.
Rachel stared at her in shock, and Hiram couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, relax! We'll buy it after dinner,"
he said.
Carl started laughing too. He picked up a piece of steak for Fannie and said,"Aunt Fannie, we'll inform
you immediately if there's any good news."
After leaving the restaurant, Fannie said that she wanted to take a walk and didn't want to go with
them. Hiram arranged with Carl to take her home before they left for the pharmacy. Considering that
Emma was at Fannie's home and they could take care of each other, Rachel wasn't worried too much
about her either.
After saying goodbye to them, Rachel walked with Hiram along the road to look for a pharmacy.
She, however, had been too embarrassed to enter any of them while passing by two pharmacies.
Finally, they stopped in front of the third pharmacy.
Looking at Rachel, who was still caught up in a glimpse of hesitation, Hiram said with a smile,"Wait
here. I'll go in and buy it."
"Hey..."
Embarrassed, Rachel lowered her head as she watched Hiram stride towards the pharmacy. 'How
could she ask a man to buy such things!'
Hiram picked two pregnancy test sticks, after walking around in the pharmacy, and then made his way
to the check-out counter.
The cashier girl stared at him without even blinking her eyes. She took out some money from the
drawer and gave it to him as change, not noticing what he had bought.
Hiram shook his head and put the extra change on the desk, and the pregnancy test sticks into his
trouser pocket before leaving the pharmacy.
The god-like handsome man came down from the steps calmly as he walked towards Rachel.
"Let's go. Carl has parked the car at the intersection." Hiram said and walked with her towards the
intersection, placing one of his hands on her shoulder.
Rachel wrapped his waist with her arm and asked,"Have you bought it?"
"Of course, otherwise, what do you think I was doing in the pharmacy?" Hiram said with a questioning
expression.
After returning to Tulip Palace, Rachel totally forgot the pregnancy test sticks. She threw herself on the
bed immediately, after taking a shower.
"I'm so sleepy..." she mumbled.
Except for many returning customers, new customers had also come in large quantities at Fannie's
restaurant. She had always been busy serving dishes to customers at the restaurant, and was tired
now.
Hiram came in after taking a shower. Seeing her lying on the bed on her stomach, he thought she must
still feel upset for not having conceived a baby yet.
Then he walked closer and patted her on the shoulder.
"It doesn't matter. I'm sure we'll have a baby soon. Cheer up," he said gently, in the attempt to comfort
her.
Hearing this, Rachel turned her head and looked at him with a little bit of surprise. "What are you
talking about?" she asked.
Staring at her for a while, Hiram asked,"Didn't you use the pregnancy test stick just now? I thought you
were worried about not being pregnant just now."
It reminded her of the test. She got up from the bed and rubbed her wet hair. "Oh! I've totally forgotten
about it. Where is it?" she asked.
Hiram turned his sight to the pregnancy test sticks on the table speechlessly.
Although he had already opened the package, Rachel didn't notice them at all.
Rachel made a face at him and proceeded to stand up. After reading the instructions on the package,
she said,"I have just been to the washroom and don't feel like peeing now. I'll check tomorrow morning.
The instructions indicate
that the best time to use the test is
in the morning."
"Okay!" With that, Hiram dried his hair with a towel and went to bed. Leaning against the bedhead, he
picked up a book to read.
Rachel climbed on the bed too and began to read an E-book on her cellphone, as she lay in Hiram's
arms.
After a while, a WeChat message popped up suddenly. She clicked it open and saw that it was a short
video sent by Celine.
She pressed the play button immediately. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
To her surprise, she received another message from Celine at that very moment. 'Rachel, I've just
found this fresh video. I hope you enjoy it. Have fun! Goodnight.'
Rachel watched the video lying in Hiram's arms. She had no idea what was about to show on the
video, and only thought it was a literary film, as it had a quite similar style at the beginning.
But after watching it for a while, she felt something was wrong, as it seemed more like an adult video.
According to her knowledge, in an ordinary romance TV drama, it would take a very long time before
the hero and the heroine started to get intimate and have sex, and the passionate scenes would flash
by quickly should there be any, but they lasted quite a long time in this video.
To avoid missing the plot, she had turned the volume up after she played it.
Passionate moans were lingering in her ears.
The more she watched, the more she felt that something was wrong. Obviously, it had attracted
Hiram's attention. He put down his book and asked,"What are you watching?"
"I've no idea. Celine just sent me a short video. I thought it was a movie, but it seems to be an... R-
rated video."
With that, Rachel fast forwarded the video. To her surprise, the pornographic scenes took up nearly the
entire video, which she thought
quite embarrassing.
Rachel switched off her cellphone immediately. When she looked up, she found Hiram looking at her
with his starry eyes. "Do girls often share this kind of thing?" he asked.
"No!" she shook her head and answered immediately,"Celine has never sent this kind of video to me. I
don't know what's wrong with her today."
'Why did she send me such a video? Maybe she's longing for a man?' Rachel thought.
She lowered her head and avoided his eyes. Although they had been together for a long time, they
hadn't seen such videos together before.
Unlike most other men, Hiram had no interest in having intimate relationships with multiple women.
Except for the intimate acts every night with Rachel, he never looked for another woman for sex.
As a result, he seldom watched such videos.
He wasn't pretending to be like a sage. In fact, he was a self-restrained individual without having too
many desires.
Hiram took Rachel's cellphone from her hands and glanced at the video. Luke and Daniel had often
asked him to watch such videos with them before, but he had no interest in them at all.
Both of them had been caught up in sexual desires and couldn't wait to find a woman after watching
the videos each time.
On the contrary, Hiram didn't react that much. It couldn't even arouse any of his desire, to be honest.
Rachel sneaked a glance of him, trying to see whether he had a reaction to the video. She scratched
him on the chest and asked,"What's your feeling?"
Hiram glanced at her and deleted the video, then placed her cellphone on the bedside table.
"Haven't I told you that you are the only woman I am interested in?" he said.
