​​

Her hands were on his firm chest, 'woah so firm' was her first thought when her hands felt his chest. She reflexively moved her right hand across his chest

Daniel smiled seeing her action, he leaned towards her ear and slowly whispered, "Liking it?"

"Yes" she subconsciously answered back.

Then she realized what she said and lifted her head to look at him, "What? What do you mean?"

"Nothing" Daniel chuckled and let her go, he wanted to tease her more but when he saw how embarrassed she was he decided to let her off.

"Why di..d you sud..denly pull me?" Rachel hesitatingly asked, his action was too intimate and on top of that she was shamelessly drooling over him, she wanted to dig a hole for herself.

"You were about to step on a stone and would have tripped, that's why I pulled you towards me." Daniel explained his actions and when Rachel looked down, there was indeed a big stone and she really would have tripped because of her heels if she stepped on it.

"Thank you so much."

"It's okay, it is my responsibility as your slave to protect you." Daniel teased her more.

"So? You agree with my terms and conditions."

"Sure, it is fair as we don't live 24 hours together, you won't be able to utilise this slave properly for your desires the way you want, so I agree."

Rachel widened her eyes at Daniel's double meaning words.

"Oops I meant demands, slip of tongue." Daniel smirked at her.

It was obvious that he was intentionally teasing her.

"Is it right for a slave to behave like a lewd?"

"How should a slave behave then?" Daniel seriously asked, stepping towards Rachel.

Rachel was confused with Daniel's behaviour, he didn't look like his regular self but he seemed a bit different.

Rachel subconsciously took a step back. "I don't know how a slave should behave." Rachel nervously answered.

"Really?" Daniel continued stepping towards her.

"Y..yes" Rachel took a step back but she stepped on some stone and lost her balance, just then Daniel quickly held her waist and again pulled her towards him, he was expecting this as this lawn had multiple stones.

He again brought her closer and whispered in her ears, "Are you intentionally trying to trip so that I can bring you closer to myself?"

Rachel turned all red hearing his words and nervously explained, "No no, I really didn't know…"

"Hahaha Rachel, I am kidding, look at you, your face has turned so red." Daniel joked and laughed at her.

"Shut up, stop laughing." Rachel was very embarrassed.

"Rachel, you are so funny." Daniel continued laughing at her.

"Whatever" Rachel turned around and headed back towards the other family members.

"Walk carefully, or I will have to again pull you or hold you in my arms and my arms are really paining." Daniel continued joking and was walking behind her, just in case she falls or trips.

"What happened to your arm?" Rachel got worried and turned back.

"I held you a few minutes back, remember? and you are very heavy so my arms are hurting."

Rachel got very angry, "Are you saying I am fat?"

"Umm not fat, you are healthy but you're damn heavy."

"No wonder you are still single." Rachel taunted him and turned back and continued heading towards their family.

Daniel laughed at her words, "Yeah probably."

"Be like this and you'll never change your current status."

"Are you sure?" Daniel curiously asked.

"Yes I am damn sure."

"Well Rachel then I'll prove you wrong, I'll have a girlfriend before my birthday."

Rachel was surprised at his words, "Oh really?"

"Yes"

"And when is your birthday?" Rachel felt weird hearing his words, she wondered if he already had someone he likes, was he talking about her or someone else.

"Figure it out yourself"

Then they reached the part of the lawn where all of the other people were seriously discussing the upcoming local elections in London.

Rachel and Daniel silently joined them and they too participated in the discussion.

After some time, Catherine insisted everyone to first have dinner and after dinner they all indulged in desserts.

"The donuts are the best." Michael commented as he enjoyed them.

"Yeah I know, that's why I asked Daniel to specially buy them." Anthony proudly replied as if he made those donuts.

Catherine chuckled at them and warned the three old men, "Don't eat too much of these desserts, you three need to control your unhealthy eating habits."

"Cat's nagging started." James taunted her.

"Yeah seriously." Michael seconded.

"Hey my daughter is caring towards all of us and you call it nagging, come on apologise to her." Anthony scolded his friends.

"Oh dad enough, I don't mind them, after all I love all three of you, I feel like I have six kids instead of three." Cat laughed.

"Three?" Anthony asked in confusion.

"Did you forget Rachel?" Harry asked his father.

"Oh right"

Rachel felt touched with Catherine and Harry's words and felt nice that they considered her as their kid.

Catherine then excitedly suggested they play some games and not wanting to upset her everyone agreed, for the next two hours they played a lot of board games, Jimmy and Michael won most of the rounds.

Then the three old men felt very tired and Catherine suggested they all stay here for the night and asked them to go to their rooms and sleep.

There were separate rooms for James and Michael in Morris' mansion as they stayed at each other's places a lot.

"No auntie we don't want to trouble you" Rachel denied her suggestion.

"Rachel I am really tired and I would prefer staying here for the night and I don't want you to go home alone so please stay here, there are many rooms in this mansion." James tiredly explained.

Rachel didn't want to disappoint her grandpa and agreed to stay.

Daniel was supposed to leave for his house but now knowing that Rachel was staying here for the night he too wanted to stay back. Before he could say something, Anthony looked at him and waved his hand, "Bye Daniel, we will miss you."

"What bye?"

"Aren't you going back to your penthouse?"

"Umm well"

"You should go, bye bye" Anthony was tired but he still wanted to tease his grandson, it was his payback for shouting at him earlier because of Jessica's topic.

Daniel understood what his grandpa was doing and was thinking of a way to stay back, just then his mother came as his savior.

"Daniel can you stay here for tonight please."

"Why Cat? Let him go" Anthony wanted to trouble Danny.

"Because my niece is coming for lunch tomorrow with her fiance. I want Daniel and Jimmy to stay back to meet her."

"Who mom?" Jimmy asked in confusion.

"Kitty. You guys used to play when you were young, she later stayed in London but we shifted to Italy so you guys lost touch, remember her now?"

"Oh Kitty, yeah sounds familiar." Jimmy nodded his head, recollecting some faded memories.

"Yeah, so I want you to be present for lunch, understood?"

Jimmy and Daniel nodded their heads agreeing to their mother but in real Jimmy was worried.

Daniel was very happy and thanked his mother in his heart and Jimmy got very tense as he had an audition the very next day.

The three old men went to their rooms and so did Daniel and Jimmy.

"Rachel come with me, I'll show you your room" then Catherine instructed something to the maid and took Rachel to show her room.

Rachel's room was right opposite to Daniel's and this side of the mansion had only these two rooms. Catherine strategically planned to give this room to Rachel, so as to bring them closer.

Rachel looked at the room which was designed in light yellow and grey, the room looked sophisticated with a queen size bed in between, there was a long couch on one side of the room and the television was mounted on the wall opposite to the bed. There were wardrobes on the other side of the wall, the room looked very comfortable and cozy.

"The room looks very beautiful, auntie."

"Thank you, I personally designed every room in this house."

"Oh yeah, after all you are an architect."

"Yeah but I didn't design this mansion, I only did the interior designing of this mansion, a few years back when we renovated a few rooms."

"It is damn pretty."

Just then the maid came with a few clothes and gave it to Catherine and left.

"Rachel, take these comfortable clothes, they are all in your size." Catherine handed a few pairs of clothes to her.

Rachel was surprised with Catherine's gesture.

Understanding her reaction, Catherine explained, "Yesterday I went to buy some comfortable night clothes for myself and when I saw these sets I really liked them and I bought these for you, I was not sure when I would be able to give you but yet I just purchased them, I am glad they came handy so soon."

"Thank you so much auntie, you are the best."
