Chapter 263 Refuse To Help The Evil

"Hiram, you just arrived at Salt Sea City. You're not leaving, are you? I have prepared you a one-stop recreation. I'm almost 100% sure that it will satisfy you,"

Preston said with an adulatory look on his face. Patrick had remained a serious concern to Preston, and Hiram was the one who helped him pull Patrick down the power. That was why Preston kept behaving as though he wanted to pleasure Hiram. "Melinda, come in!"

Preston called a woman over from outside the room.

The young lady that approached the men was very attractive. She asked,"Mr. Yan, what can I do for you?"

Preston winked at Melinda to hint her in Hiram's direction. He wanted her to sit next to him. "Mr. Rong, take it easy. I heard that Mrs. Rong is expectant now. You don't need to withhold your needs. Melinda will keep you company for the next few days."

Hiram puffed out a cloud of smoke and gave Melinda a cold glance. She was just about to sit down, but instead of stepping forward, she was intimidated and remained standing in the same spot.

"Mr. Yan, I willingly helped you pull your brother down the power because he impaired the interests of Streams Company. However, it doesn't mean that I agree with your behavior whatsoever. On the contrary, I find it rather repulsive. You don't need to set the honey trap for me. Please, enjoy her yourself."

Preston stared at Hiram with an embarrassed look on his face and tried to conceal it with a slight cough. "Mr. Rong, you must be tired after the long journey. As you refused my gift, I feel quite ashamed to even ask for your help."

Preston said as he waved to Melinda to leave the room.

Hiram flicked the cigarette ash and laughed at him. "If you really feel ashamed, just keep quiet about everything. I have other business endeavors to attend to, so I'll leave now."

"No!"

When Preston saw that Hiram was about to leave, he stood up immediately. Without any hesitation, he continued,"That son of a bitch escaped to H city, and I don't know where he is. I won't be able to live in peace if he is alive! Patrick will redirect all of our family's property, should he become successful one day.

Mr. Rong, we all know that H city is under your control. Please. I need you to help me find him. I just need to retrieve his address, and I won't bother you again. Don't worry about the rest. I will take care of him!"

In all of Preston's seriousness, Hiram burst out laughing as soon as he finished his sentence. "Mr. Yan, Patrick has always been going against my company, and that was why I chose to fight him in the first place. Besides, it served in your favor too. It serves him right for all the things he has done.

"You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."

Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.

Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...

er the last time I saw her."

Rachel stayed at Laura's home until it was dark outside.

Hiram was on the phone during the entire drive back. It was almost as though he encountered problems with work during the day, which he remained silent about. Rachel acknowledged that he was uneasy. That was why he remained in the car to make a few calls when Rachel went to visit her aunt and her family.

"Honey, their dishes taste so good. Have some. There is something at the company that I have to deal with. I will come back to pick you up later." Hiram said apologetically.

"It doesn't matter. Just go!" Rachel exclaimed.

Hiram leaned over to kiss her and said,"I promise to come back soon. Please, wait up for me."

He asked Chad to stay with Rachel while he was out, and drove back to the company alone.

Although Hiram left in a hurry, Rachel still felt pleased with the time he had devoted to her. Hiram came back from the US and spent most of his stay with her. She understood his position and that he had to be available to deal with his company's problems at all times.

After she had dinner, Rachel walked around in the restaurant. She enjoyed the night view from the glass window. The road was very crowded with people and traffic. The glow of neon lights added color to the city life outside. During the evening, the city was always exceptionally beautiful and peaceful.

Suddenly, a figure squatting outside the glass window attracted her.

His tall figure didn't match the dirty clothing on his body. He sneaked in, took a dish of leftovers that the waiter didn't have time to clean up yet, and ate it in a terrible hurry.

Looking at him, Rachel thought he was a beggar at first glance.

However, she was stunned when she looked at him a second time.
