Chapter 207 - Three Old Men Doubted Them

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

"Dan, I have something serious to ask you" Rachel looked very serious.

"Hmm, what happened?"

"Are you sure you not gay?" She teased him.

"Hmm, let me check" Daniel pulled Rachel on him and made her sit on his lap.

He brought her face closer to his to kiss her when she turned her face away, "I didn't brush" 

"So, what?" Daniel pulled her face closer but they heard footsteps so Rachel pushed him and went back to her seat.

"Rachel, should we go shopping?" Jessica came out of her room and asked.

"Actually, today we need to be somewhere else" Rachel apologetically told her.

"Can I tag along with you two? Please? I am bored" Jessica pouted and joined them back at the dining table.

"The place where we are going is not safe" Daniel warned her.

"What is it? Is it something serious?" Jessica asked them as earlier too they got distracted from this topic.

"Jess…" Daniel was about to say no when Rachel held his hand to stop him.

"Jessica, to tell you the story in short, do you remember the bodyguard who was with me when I came to meet you in Italy?"

Frank was the only bodyguard one who entered Jessica's office and others stayed outside.

"Oh yeah, he was waiting outside for you" Jessica had a good memory and also at that time she was surprised to see a bodyguard as it felt weird and not normal so she indeed remembered someone with her.

"Actually when I was leaving for the airport this bodyguard planned an attack on me and tried to kill me but I managed to come out of it and he ran away, now he got caught so we are going to meet him today." Rachel explained everything in short.

"What the fuck? Then why did you not come to me?" Jessica felt bad that she got attacked in her city and that too when she came to meet her for the meeting.

"It's okay I left for London immediately. I am fine" Rachel smiled and assured her.

"Still, I am sorry to know this" Jessica looked pale.

"Chill"

"Can I too come with you two?" Jessica requested.

"Why though?" 

"I am curious and it is super exciting"

Rachel: "..."

Daniel: "..."

After having lunch, the three people headed to the bungalow in the outskirts of the city where Frank has been captured. 

When they reached there, they saw the three old men and Patrick, waiting outside the bungalow. 

It was obvious they were all waiting for them.

When Rachel got down the car, the four men who were waiting for Daniel were not surprised as they knew that after knowing the truth Rachel would insist on coming here.

But when Jessica got out of the car, they were all surprised.

Anthony and Patrick recognized her but James and Michael were confused as they were meeting Jessica for the first time.

"Hey grandpas" Rachel greeted the three old men.

"Hi dear" James greeted her back.

"Hi Rachel, how have you been?"

"I am good grandpa"

"I didn't expect you to be here with Daniel." Anthony teased her.

"Yeah, it seems these days you are spending way too much time at Daniel's house, right James?" Michael too teased her and James nodded his head.

The three old men had been discussing it for days as after work Rachel stays at Daniel's place and even during the weekends she lives there, it was rare for her to be back home.

The three old men doubted them, they wondered if they were still friends or already started dating each other. 

James and Anthony were more curious and wanted to ask their grandchildren but they didn't dare to as earlier Rachel refused to marry Daniel and Daniel too was not that keen on the marriage alliance.

But they were sure things were not the same now but yet they didn't wish to make their grandchildren feel uncomfortable so they never asked but that was not the case with Michael.

Therefore, Michael directly asked the two kids.

Rachel was not sure what to say to Michael and Daniel too was confused, just then Jessica chimed in, "Hey all, I am Jessica Carlson, Daniel's childhood friend and Rachel's business partner for her new venture. I am staying at Daniel's place and therefore we are all spending a lot of time together at his house. Jimmy too lives with us"

Jessica knew they were hiding their relationship from everyone that's why she came to their rescue.

"Oh" The three grandpa got sad as they were hoping for some good news.

Patrick smiled to himself but he acted like he had no idea as he promised Rachel to hide the truth of her relationship from her grandpa.

"Good to see you dear" Anthony hugged Jessica who happily hugged him back, "Grandpa, you are looking more handsome than before" 

"Of course, I am the most good looking one among my friends" Anthony praised himself.

"I disagree, I think grandpa Michael is the most handsome of you three" Rachel spoke up.

Michael got very happy as Rachel believed he was more good looking.

"No, grandpa James, is more handsome" Daniel added as he didn't wish James to be left out and he wanted to win some brownie points with Rachel's grandpa.

"No, grandpa Anthony is more handsome" Jessica fought.

"Guys, we are here to deal with something important, can we focus on that?" Patrick interrupted all the kids who were acting like they were on a picnic.

"Sorry" They all apologized together.

"Danny, what is wrong with you? Why did you bring Jessica to a dangerous place like this?" Anthony scolded his grandson.

"Ask her, she insisted on bringing Jessica along" Daniel pointed at Rachel.

"Yeah, she wanted to come so why not?" Rachel casually questioned them.

"Rachel, do you even know how dangerous this place is?" James scolded his granddaughter who was acting carelessly.
