The Doctor And The CEO Chapter 32
Advertisement
When Daniel saw Anthony's expressions he understood what his grandpa was thinking and wanted to apologize but before that, Rachel turned to Jimmy and said, "I went to Peebles for that project and came across Daniel and we encountered some situation and he saved me." She felt guilty for running away and decided to make up a story so as to not hurt Jimmy by letting him know the truth.
Jimmy had a huge grin on his face, "Is that so?" he asked.
"Yes." Rachel replied.
Grandpa Anthony was about to say something but suddenly Jimmy held his hand and signed with his eyes not to speak. Daniel witnessed it and was worried thinking what this duo was upto. These two always fight with each other but if they team-up then no one can beat them, they both are alike and that is the reason why they always fought.
Grandpa James then introduced his friends, "Daniel, these two are my childhood best friends Anthony and Michael. This joker here is Jimmy, Anthony's grandson."
Grandpa Michael asked "you must remember me, We have met here when you came to drop Rachel"
Daniel was hesitated thinking how to react to this, he anyway turned towards Grandpa Michael and said "I do remember, How can I forget"
Grandpa Anthony extended his hand forward introducing himself "I am Anthony Morris, childhood friend of Rachel's grandpa, sorry couldn't meet you last time as my daughter-in-law asked me to rush back home as there was a surprise for me."
Daniel felt guilty seeing the indifferent expression on his grandpa and shook his hand. Anthony then looked at Jimmy and said, "Jimmy my dear grandson, my love, introduce yourself to this stranger."
Jimmy with a naughty smile introduced himself, "I am Jimmy Morris, Anthony Morris' grandson, I am looking after my grandpa's business, I always wanted to pursue a career in acting but due to my brother I couldn't" he was trying to suppress his laugh.

Daniel felt very guilty but Jimmy and Grandpa wanted to tease more and were enjoying it a lot.
"Jimmy we asked you to introduce yourself, not discuss your life problems." Grandpa Michael taunted.
Rachel was surprised to know Jimmy has an elder brother as she thought Jimmy was the only child of his parents, although their grandpas were close, this generation was not very close and didn't even know each other.
Rachel asked Daniel, "It is already late so let us start the brunch" Daniel nodded and then she asked everyone to come to the dining room.
James sat at the end of one side of the table, the one where the head of the family always sits. Michael sat on his left and Anthony sat on his right. Daniel sat next to Michael and Rachel sat next to Daniel. Jimmy sat opposite to Daniel.
He wickedly smiled at Daniel giving him creeps.
Jimmy asked, "Rachel you said this handsome guy next to you saved you, this story sounds interesting, can you tell us more about it."
Rachel hesitated and said, "It is nothing interesting, let's talk about something else."
Grandpa James said, "What nothing it is because of Daniel I am so happy today. Rachel is alive because of him."
He turned towards Anthony and continued, "That day when Rachel came you couldn't meet Daniel as you left so early. He is a doctor who saved my Rachel and protected her for three months. He is a perfect gentleman with all good qualities."
Daniel and Rachel were embarrassed
Rachel thought "I have rejected Jimmy and even lied to him just now saying I was gone for a project, did grandpa forget about it, don't know what Jimmy must be thinking."
Daniel thought "sorry grandpa, this is the first time I have lied to you and hid something important."

Grandpa Anthony interrupted their thoughts, "Is that so? He is a perfect gentleman? I am sure his grandpa must have been really proud of him, right Daniel?"
Daniel felt embarrassed and didn't answer.
Grandpa Anthony continued in a humble tone, "Daniel where are you from? What is your parents profession? Are they both doctors like you?" He was having fun teasing his grandson.
Daniel felt awkward, he understood his grandpa and brother were pretending to not know him and were having fun so he too decided to act along, "I am from London, my mother is an architect and my father is a businessman. I am the only doctor in my family."
Rachel too got happy to know something more about Daniel's personal life.
Jimmy looked at his grandpa and taunted, "Dr. Daniel looks so dull. Seems like your questions are making him uncomfortable."
Everyone looked at these two and thought why are they behaving so casually with Daniel and instead they look like they are taunting and teasing him.
Jimmy then said, "Grandpas don't you all think Dr. Daniel and Rachel look like a young couple in love, see they are wearing same colored clothes, it is nowadays a trend to wear color coordinated clothes."
Daniel and Rachel then looked at each other's clothes and so did everyone present there, they were indeed wearing white t-shirts and blue jeans.
"It is just a coincidence." Daniel said, embarrassed by his brother.
Michael said "you know what Jimmy, the very first day when I saw Daniel and Rachel together, I thought there is some compatibility between the two and my gut feeling says that there is something going on between them"
Daniel choked on his food not expecting grandpa Michael to say something like that so frankly. Rachel quickly handed over a glass of water to him. She too was embarrassed with Michael's words but she also enjoyed it.
Grandpa James decided to save these two from embarrassment and asked "Anthony when is your grandson Danny coming?"

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
