The Doctor And The CEO Chapter 20

Anthony got confused about what to tell his daughter-in-law, who was very happy and excited. He has not revealed the truth about Rachel that she had run away from home because of the marriage alliance he and James planned three months back. When both friends had a proposal of getting married to their grandchildren, Rachel had listened and following the argument with her grandpa she took a drastic step. She had returned today morning after going missing for three months. He can understand what his friend went through because of this incident and he will never force her for marriage. So he doesn't want to put James in a dilemma. He was therefore silent after hearing Catherine's words wondering what to tell her.
Catherine called her father-in-law twice to get his attention.
Anthony came to his senses and replied "yes, what are you asking..Sorry I was not listening" he thought to avoid the topic so that he can get more time to think.
Catherine: I am asking about when we will meet Rachel and her grandfather, as now Daniel also moved here.
Anthony: yaa...yaa. Let's visit them after a few days as Daniel had moved here just now. We have to give him some time and talk to him about our proposal with Rachel.
Harry: Dad is right, we will talk to him after a few days. Anyway he has moved here permanently, both families are living in the same city so why are you hurrying to plan things? Marriage is an important life decision. Let us give him some time to get settled.
Anthony felt relieved by hearing his son's words. He turned towards Catherine and said "let us wait for a few days". He thought that he would get some time.
Catherine sighed and said "ok , I accept your decision" She thought 'I was really excited to meet Rachel as she is my best friend's daughter and wanted her to be my daughter-I-Law'.

Anthony : By the way I forgot to tell you. James invited me and Michael for lunch on sunday afternoon. It is kind of a brunch.
Before he could continue , Catherine interrupted him and said, "Dad I was planning to go to lunch with our family as Daniel had returned on Sunday. I have already made a booking at a restaurant. Can you cancel your plans?"
Just then both the brothers came back after admiring the surroundings and spending some time together. They heard Catherine as soon as they entered and Daniel worriedly asked "mom have you planned for lunch on sunday?"
Mom answered "yes, sunday afternoon let's all go for lunch, I have already booked a table"
Daniel replied "I can't come as I am going for lunch with my friends, which was planned one month before. Can you plan lunch for next week mom, I will make sure to be free".
Grandpa said "I too agree with Daniel, I already made plans, can't cancel them so Catherine you please plan next week."
Catherine sighed and got annoyed "ok, I have to ask you guys before planning anything from now onwards".
Daniel and grandpa felt bad but were helpless as they already made prior commitments. After chit-chatting for some time everyone went to their rooms to relax. Daniel asked Jimmy to come to his room, Jimmy followed him by jumping onto his back and asked him to carry him or rather piggyback him. Daniel laughed seeing his brother's childish antics and piggybacked him.
Daniel and Jimmy relaxed on the bed. Daniel's thoughts wandered to Rachel and he started thinking about her 'what might she be doing now, is she thinking about me or not, does she miss me just the way I am missing her' then his thoughts went back to last night and he thought of her sleeping position and he couldn't stop himself from blushing when he thought of her sexy figure and beautiful face

Seeing Daniel blushing and smiling to himself, Jimmy asked "why is my serious brother looking so shy, what's the matter? The serious man who never laughs at my jokes is suddenly smiling like a fool, I wonder what could be the reason."
He initially wanted to talk to him about his future so he called Jimmy to his room and he totally forgot about it. He came back to his senses and asked Jimmy "I want to talk to you about your future plan", he heard what Jimmy said and wanted to avoid it.
Jimmy thought that something happened in the Peebles, maybe he met a girl. So he thought that this is the right time to ask him, as he seems to be in a good mood.
Jimmy started pestering Daniel for information and the reason behind his blush instead of answering him
After some pestering Daniel decided to partially share what was on his mind "I have met a girl in Peebles, she was in trouble. She is from London so it was for her that I decided to come home a week early. I came here after dropping her at her home. Don't tell anyone, not even to mom also. I was blushing thinking about her".
Jimmy in an excited tone "how does she look, what is she doing? She is also a doctor like you? Is she sexy?"
Daniel flustered for a while and said that she is good looking, fair and smart. She is a businesswoman who looks after her family business.
He continued "When I spent time with her, I started liking her, I never had such feelings for anyone else before, I am still figuring out my feelings and I am unsure of how she feels about me, so that is it."
Jimmy said "ok then you try to spend time with her so that you can know her feelings".
Daniel said "actually on sunday I am going to lunch at her house, so that I can spend more time. When we were entering you had heard that mom was planning to go out for lunch, actually, I said that I am meeting my friends for lunch. That was untrue as I am going for lunch to her house. Don't tell anybody".
Jimmy promised his brother he wouldn't in exchange for Daniel promising him to give updates about his relationship.
Daniel promised, "ok I will update but now tell me about your career plans."
Jimmy said " I want to join theater, I recently got a role in a drama but grandpa had not allowed me to take that role"
Daniel asked "why?"
