《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 316 - The Queen (1)
Advertisement
Oliver shuddered at her tone as this woman seemed even more scarier than her brother so he had no other option but to comply to her words but he was unable to speak due to the aura she was emitting. Jessica toned down her anger and said in her usual polite tone "At least you will be her friend and if you are successful in making her fall for you then everything will be much easier and I won't be against it until then just help me along the way. You get your fair chance to spend time with her, just keep her distracted and be there by her side no matter what she needs."
A smile formed on Oliver's lips as he looked at Jessica "Alright then I will help you."
Jessica smiled at him and gave him a hug "Thank you now just do as I say."
He looked at her then after a moment asked "But why don't you stay by her side after all you are her best friend."
Jessica controlled her anger and said "If I could I would have done that but I you are a male and you have better chances at being successful. Rachel still has feelings for him you just have to help her get rid of that or at least tone them down. If she remembers everything just after I have erased her memory there is a chance that she will have a permanent brain damage but if it takes time to resurface and it does slowly it won't harm her so you have to be careful."
Oliver smiled and said "No matter how much time it takes, I will make her fall in love with me because even though she loves your brother he is dead."
Jessica just glared at him and he didn't say any other word because he knew he was wrong. She took in a deep breath and said "Go now, you can start."
Oliver happily went to Rachel who had just finished talking to everyone and was sitting in a corner quietly. Although Oliver had said that he would be by her side and keep her happy but now that he was he didn't even know what to say. He simply sat next to her while thinking of talking about something but before he could say anything Rachel spoke "Oliver have you ever felt like you have lost something so precious and you don't even remember it."

Oliver looked at her and now that he knew what she was talking about he felt scared that she might really be thinking too hard so he thought of flirting with her to distract her "No, I haven't and if that is your pick up line a then it is not very good."
Rachel stared at her "What do you mean by that?"
He gave her his charming smile "Don't tell me that you are not attracted by me. Every girl is desperate to just have a date with me. Now I am by your side all the time and you are not even attracted to me is unbelievable."
Rachel began to laugh out loudly which hurt Oliver's feelings initially but seeing her forget what she was thinking about, he felt happy but didn't show it on his face as it was masked by a hurtful expression and then Rachel broke his heart with words "What gives you the confidence to come here and say those words to me. Do you really think I will like someone childish like you."
He put on a sad face and said "I know you are my friend and you have the right to insult me but sometimes your words hurt."
Rachel looked at him with a smile on her face and said "Then don't joke around like that, it is just that you are really a nice friend but you are really not my type."
Oliver gave it a thought and came to a decision that this was the perfect time to confess to her so that at night rater than thinking about Robert she would have something else to think about. So he looked at her and said in a nervous tone "What if I told you that I like you."
Rachel fell silent as she was shock, she realized that she must have really hurt his feelings just now so she looked at apologetically and asked "Really of all the girls that like you, you like the one that doesn't like you."
He smiled and replied "I don't know why the heart always craves the things that are out of it's reach."
Rachel looked at him speechless, she didn't know what to say so she stammered "B-But I - I..."
He smiled at her and cut her sentence "You don't need to say anything, it was what I feel and I don't want to force you to feel that way just take your time and know me better if you like me, you are free to return my feelings but if you don't I will be happy enough to just be your friend. I just want you to give it some thought and please don't let this come between our friendship I really don't mind suppressing these feelings."

Rachel smiled and hugged him tightly "You are the best person I know and I promise you I will consider whatever you have said but no matter what I feel we will always be friends."
Oliver smiled "Thank you, I will see you tomorrow then, my parents are waiting I have to leave."
Rachel returned his smile and nodded "Get going, I will see you in the morning."
Jessica who was observing all this felt relived that Oliver had handled everything carefully and now she could relax that she had trusted the right person, she went to Jamie and told her that the first part of the plan was successful.
Jamie smiled at her and said "That's great, now you should go and do the rest of the things but before that we have to tell Rachel everything about her responsibilities."
Jessica nodded "The guests will be leaving in a few minutes then we can tell her about it after that I will go home and do everything as you said."
Jamie smiled and patted her back "That's like my daughter."
Jessica was really happy at those words as she had never felt this loved but right now she was overwhelmed by all kinds of emotions and she didn't know how to respond so she helped Jamie see the guests off. Now that she had been acknowledged as their daughter everyone was giving her a special attention too and behaving nicely with her.
Jamie and Charles had announced that they were adopting Jessica as their daughter and she would be working at the company with Rachel so everyone had to treat her well too. Now that the school was over for Rachel she was planning to do her further studies in business while handling the company along with that she had decided to take care that no one would mistreat her best friend.
After the guests left Jamie went to Charles "You go and rest in the room and I will be there soon after talking to Rachel."
Charles nodded understanding the situation and then went to the room while Jamie took Jessica to Rachel's room who had already changed into comfortable clothes and was packing around the room impatiently. As soon as she saw them enter the room she said "What took you so long, come in and tell me everything."
Jamie looked at her and for the first time she took out a hidden wand that she winked at Rachel saying "I will take you to the place where you will find out everything."
Rachel looked at her clothes utterly shocked and she immediately rushed towards a mirror, her eyes widened at her own site. All the people in the party kept telling her that she looked like fairy but if they saw her right now no one would believe that she was not. She looked like a beautiful queen of fairies, no angel could have ever looked this beautiful and as she was starting at her own image Jessica and Jamie appeared behind her with same kind of clothing and they too looked out of this world. She finally broke out of the spell and said "Where are we going?"
Jamie smiled "Come, you will know."
Jamie and Jessica both held each of her hand and soon wings appeared behind their back with which they began to fly high in the sky."
Rachel gasped at the sight of wings as they were the most beautiful pair she had seen in her life, they had were white in color but they were not as beautiful and huge as Robert's and now as she didn't remember anything about him for her these were the most beautiful pair.
Soon they reached a magnificent place just above the clouds away from the reach of any human or any other creature.

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.
