"Did they face any trouble because of that guy committing suicide?"
"No, luckily there were surveillance cameras on the road and it recorded everything and proved Rachel and Daniel innocent."
"Did you see the footage?"
"Yes I did"
"Share it with me too"
"Ok"
"Also, why are you telling me all of this now James, you should have told me earlier."
"I too found out about it recently. Rachel wanted to hide this from me as she didn't want to worry me."
"Is that girl crazy? The earlier we know the more careful we would be."
"Yes but I can't blame her. She saw how I panic when it comes to her." James was understanding of his granddaughter and her emotions.
"How did you know then?"
"I have my sources." James winked.
"Did you find any leads?"
"Not yet, if that guy was alive we could have gotten some lead but don't worry my source is working to find more information and I am sure my source will not disappoint me."
"Who is this source? I am really curious to know"
"Come on Michael you know the rule, never reveal your sources."
"Hahaha fine, I'll also use my contacts to get to the bottom of this." Michael promised.
"Yes that's why I am telling all of this to one of the best lawyers in this country, with your contacts we can definitely get more clues."
"Don't put so much hope on this lawyer, 11 years back this lawyer failed you and that's why you had to take the harsh decision of sending Rachel away."
"How many times have I told you, it was not your fault, the person threatening us is at fault and you didn't fail me, it was that bastard who failed all of us by siding with the enemy." James looked angry but Michael could say he was sad too.

"Don't talk about him, he anyway died."
"Hmm, let's find more about those people Michael, this time I have to deal with them once and for all."
"Sure James. Please go and rest and don't think too much into it."
James nodded, Michael too took his leave and after bidding him goodbye James went to sleep.
Next Day
Rachel woke up with a splitting headache, her head was spinning and she shouted in frustration, just then her grandpa entered her room with the hangover soup.
He woke up early and got it ready in advance and was planning to wake her up but when he came she already woke up and seemed to be in pain.
"Drink this soup, you will feel better." He offered the soup to her.
"I didn't brush yet."
"Come I'll help you out."
Grandpa took her to the washroom as she didn't have the energy to even walk till there.
She drank the soup after brushing and she indeed felt better.
"Thanks for the soup grandpa. I am feeling much better."
"Yeah Daniel recommended this soup."
"Oh fuck" Rachel suddenly shouted when she heard Daniel's name.
"What happened?" James got worried seeing the weird expression on her face.
"Umm nothing, nothing grandpa." Rachel waved her hands in front of him.
"Then don't curse like this."
"Sorry grandpa."
James sighed seeing his cute granddaughter, he had a strong urge to ask her more about the attack but decided against it.
"I'll leave, freshen up and come downstairs for breakfast."
"Ok grandpa, please shut the door behind you."
James then left and shut the door of her room.
As soon as James left, Rachel again shouted and grabbed her hair in frustration.
She remembered talking about milkshakes with him and she shared the romantic dream she had of Daniel with him. She doesn't remember if she told him about the kiss or not and it was driving her crazy.

Just then her phone vibrated, she checked there was a message from Daniel.
'Hope you are feeling better' he messaged.
Seeing his message she felt even more embarrassed remembering her behaviour, she cursed herself for drinking so much and ruining the time she would have properly spent if not for that champagne.
She was embarrassed but she knew she should reply to him, he safely dropped her at home after all, so she messaged him, 'Yeah thanks to the hangover soup.'
'Glad it helped'
'I am really sorry'
'For what?'
'My behaviour last night, I usually don't drink so much and my tolerance is high, don't know what happened yesterday.'
'Maybe you were stressed with work, it is ok, I had fun seeing you drunk. Wink.'
Rachel felt shy reading that message, 'what the fuck he means by fun' she thought, she replied, 'Stop kidding, it was not fun at all'
'By the way' Daniel replied back
'Yes?'
'What was your dream about?'
'What dream?' Rachel knew what he was saying but she chose to ignore it.
'The milkshakes dream'
'I don't know what you are talking about'
'It was a dream you had and I was in that dream'
