Chapter 206 - My Darling Is The Best

Daniel kept quiet so Jessica told Rachel what happened.

"Karla was so mad, she was always roaming around Daniel. If he goes to the library she used to follow him there and if he had lab experiments, she used to be his partner. After a point, even Daniel got annoyed and he asked her directly why she is bothering him like this. Then she said when he agreed to go on a date with her, it gave her the hope that he too likes her back just like how she likes him. That's when she decided she would never give up on him." Jessica laughed and continued the story.

"She thought it was because of me that Daniel was avoiding her and therefore she was pursuing him like this. Then Daniel took a deep breath and told her something after which she never bothered him again"

Jessica teasingly looked at Daniel and laughed.

"What is it, don't hang me in suspense?" Rachel was getting irritated and excited at the same time.

"I told her I was gay and I only like men. That's why Jessica stopped me from going with her as Jessica felt what I was doing was wrong and unfair to Karla" Daniel explained what he did himself.

Rachel laughed at what he said and she patted him on the head, "Dan, I'll still love you even if you are gay" She teased him.

"Very funny" Daniel glared at her.

"Yeah, so Daniel made me look like a good person and after he said he was gay he requested her to not tell anyone else about it so she respected it and stopped bothering him" Jessica completed the story.

"You are really smart, without any bad blood you handled this matter" Rachel praised him.

"Hmm since then if any woman asked him out on a date too, I used to immediately reject it as I didn't wish to give any false hopes to anyone" Daniel explained.

"Hmm, now I understand what made you take this decision" Rachel stroked his head lovingly.

"Yeah, if he would have taken my advice then he would have never got entangled with that psycho. I can judge a person in the first meeting and I know who is how" Jessica proudly said.

"Oh really?" Rachel asked her.

"Yes"

"Then tell me about Matt, who you met yesterday" Rachel wanted to test her skills and Matt is not an easy person to understand so she asked about him.

"Well he acts like he is a casanova and is super cool but in actual he is a very sensitive person. He cares about other people's feelings. He tries to act indifferent but he gets bothered about everyone who is close to him. He knows who is upto what and is a good observant" Jessica put her point of view forward and Rachel was surprised as out of all her friends Matt was the most complicated one.

Although he looks like the easiest one to mingle with, he is also the most mysterious one. His close friends were the only people who knew him very well.

So, Rachel was surprised with Jessica's on-point observation.

"You are awesome" Rachel honestly praised her.

Jessica smiled, "I used this skill of mine in the business world as I know what kind of people I'll be dealing with"

"I have a lot to learn from you" Rachel honestly told Jessica as she realized how much she needs to learn from her as she can't judge a person in one meeting.

Jessica smiled at her.

"By the way, is that why you didn't take Matt seriously when he was flirting with you?" Rachel asked her as Jessica was chill about it and was not irritated or offended by his actions.

"Yeah, and you know what, he likes that girl" Jessica gossiped with Rachel.

"What? Which girl?" Rachel curiously asked.

Daniel helplessly shook his head seeing the two women gossip like they are old friends.

"Daniel's intern, what was her name?"

"Lisa?" Rachel asked in surprise.

"Yes, her"

"I don't think so, he and we all care for her because she is Emily's sister. We all don't have siblings so since Emily had one we all treated her like she is our sister too" Rachel explained.

"Yeah, but he likes her. I saw multiple times how he kept looking in her direction and the way he looked at her it was not a brotherly look. He really likes her but I think he too didn't realize that yet" Jessica shared what she observed last night.

"Wow, it would be really interesting to see Matt and Lisa." Rachel said after thinking as she believed Matt is a much better person than Steve.

"Will you two stop it? You both are gossipping about my intern and my colleague" Daniel couldn't take it anymore and scolded the two women.

"Oh yeah, Dan how come you never mentioned to me that Lisa was your intern?" Rachel questioned him and Daniel glared back at her, his face seeing, 'Seriously?'

"Okay whatever but Dan you have to promise me that you will keep Lisa and Steve away from each other" Rachel seriously warned him.

"What? Why?"

"Lisa loved Steve for many years but he always loved Emily. He is an asshole, we all always loathed him, so please keep them away from one another"

"Rachel, they have to learn to keep their personal and professional lives apart and manage. We are doctors and our patients are our first priority. I am sorry but I am not going to consider your request. They have to deal with their own problems" Daniel cleared his stand and instead of getting angry Rachel smiled.

"My darling is the best." Rachel looked at Daniel in admiration.

"Oh god, kill me" Jessica walked away from there and the two people laughed.

"When should we go to meet Frank?" Rachel asked him, turning serious.

"Let's go after lunch, Patrick too will be reaching after some time" Daniel suggested and Rachel agreed.
