"Daniel don't joke like this" Rachel glared at him in anger, she was fooled by him and was feeling embarrassed as she fell into his trap.

"Woah, she also gets angry? I didn't know that" Jimmy again laughed seeing Rachel angry.

​​

"Yeah it is a rare sight for me too." Daniel agreed with him.

Just then Catherine called these three to the living room.

"Your cousin is here and you two are busy in your own world" Catherine scolded her sons.

"Sorry" The two brothers apologized to their cousin.

"Hey chill, let them be aunt, I am sure Daniel must have something important to discuss with Rachel." She indirectly teased Rachel.

Rachel glared at her which no one noticed except for Kate and Nick who were trying to control their laughter.

"Kate, till when are you in London?" Daniel asked her ignoring her previous comment, he didn't find anything wrong with it and did not realize they were teasing them.

"For almost two months, then we will head to Paris and after marriage we will be back to London again"

"Great, I am planning to throw a housewarming party sometime soon but mostly during the weekend. Please do come, both of you, I'll anyway call you when the dates are finalized." He informed her and added, "You two should definitely come" Daniel invited Kate and Nick who happily obliged.

"Sure Dan, we will definitely come"

"Aren't you supposed to buy more decor for your home?" Jimmy whispered to Daniel.

"Yeah, I and Rachel will be going shopping tomorrow" Daniel informed him.

"I came up with that plan so that you two could spend more time together, now you two are anyway dating..."

"So what? My house still needs some decor so we should go" Daniel retorted, even if he was dating he wanted to spend as much time as he could with Rachel.

Rachel heard Jimmy as she was standing closer to them, "Oh so you were playing cupid all the time" she too slowly whispered, only Daniel and Jimmy could hear her.

"Yeah, I was" Jimmy proudly answered her.

"Then when we planned to meet on Monday, why did you invite yourself like a third wheel?" Rachel sarcastically asked him, her words surprised both the brothers, Daniel was smiling as he was enjoying this bold side of Rachel and Jimmy was taken aback as he didn't expect she would also taunt him about it.

"Sorry Rach, I was too excited to meet you so…" Jimmy went on a guilt trip.

Seeing Jimmy sad, Rachel quickly added, "Hey I am kidding, don't get sad please" For the time being she can face anything but not Jimmy's sadness, it made her feel sad too.

Daniel seeing her being affected by Jimmy's sadness informed her, "He is playing you emotionally, don't fall for his sad face, he is a good actor"

"I'll take that as a compliment" Jimmy whispered back.

Rachel punched Jimmy on the shoulder for playing with her emotionally and he laughed at her antics.

"You literally have no strength." He made fun of her and she just angrily glared at him.

After some more chit-chat Kate and Nick took their leave.

"All the best Rachel" they wished her and no one understood what it was about but they all ignored it assuming it was some internal thing.

After they left Rachel felt more comfortable, she looked at Daniel, he looked a bit off so Rachel asked him if he was fine, he stroked her hair and nodded at her implying everything was fine and went to his room.

Rachel then went to the lawn where Catherine was relaxing, she sat in the chair beside her, "Auntie, where are the three grandpas?"

"Oh I forgot to tell you, there is a new elite club called 'The Eminent Club' that has been inaugurated today and they all three went there to have fun"

"Oh, then I'll also head to my home" Rachel overstayed her welcome and although the Morris' were good to her, she didn't feel like taking their advantage.

"No, your grandpa made me promise that I'll allow you to leave only after he messages me" Catherine very strictly informed her.

Rachel was not sure how to persuade Catherine to let her go and looked confused.

"You are not liking it here?" Catherine's charming face turned very sad when she asked her this.

"No no, I am rather loving it here" Rachel was indeed having fun, it was just that she did not want to be a burden on them.

"Just stay then, go and have a bath, freshen up, you will feel better and how are the comfy clothes I bought for you?"

"The shorts are too small" She honestly told her opinion.

"Yeah I know, aren't they cute?"

"Yes but a bit uncomfortable too to wear when not sleeping"

"I understand, you can continue wearing Daniel's clothes" Catherine winked at her and Rachel felt embarrassed then Catherine went in to rest in her room and Rachel too left.

Rachel then headed to her room to freshen up and her room door was unlocked, she realized Daniel already unlocked it for her, but before going inside she went to Daniel's room, she didn't knock the door and directly entered in only to startle Jimmy and Daniel who seemed to be discussing something very seriously as she could feel lot of tension in the air, Jimmy had a worried look on his face and Daniel looked very serious, she regretted not knocking on the door before entering.

Seeing Rachel there they got alarmed, Jimmy forced himself to smile as if everything was normal and Daniel too tried to look normal.

Sensing their discomfort due to her presence, Rachel didn't ask them anything and just borrowed another track pants from Daniel and left the two brothers to have their own space.

After seeing her leave and ensuring she is not there Daniel locked his room door.

"Daniel, are we not supposed to tell Rachel anything?" Jimmy asked with concern.

"No Jim, I am not sure how she will take this news and we are still not sure if that murder has got anything to do with Rachel or not"

Jimmy nodded his head accepting his brother's explanation.

…...

The Eminent Club

Few hours back [Saturday Morning]

The three grandpas reached the elite club, it was spread over 20 acres of land, the main club which was between the land and was surrounded by greenery and trees had tall walls built around its periphery, making it difficult for anyone outside the club to even get a glimpse of the insides.

A person standing right in front of the gate too can't see the main club building because the entry has a long path with green lawns on both the sides of the road leading to it, the path then turns to its left and that was the only view one could see if the gates were opened.

The gates open only when the guest arrives and at the entry the security guards verify if the guest indeed belongs to this club or not and only after thorough verification they get the entry.

The three old men carried Black credit card shaped cards with words printed in Gold, the card itself looked so royal that the status of the card holder can be judged from it.

The name of the card holder was printed on it in gold with their basic personal information on it.

This card was compulsory to get the entry to the club and carried a great significance to it. If a person forgets to bring their card, no matter what they won't get the entry.

The three old men showed their cards to the security guards at the entrance and after checking the three black cards and scanning them at a scanner the guards let them in, the three were in the car so the car was allowed to enter the gate, they crossed multiple lawns, tennis court and a golf court before reaching the main club.

There the three old men were greeted by a butler at the entrance and were offered juices.

Then another man who was standing there led them to the main reception counter and he then left after bowing to them.

"I am feeling like I belong to the royal family" Michael muttered in a very low voice.

"I agree" James too felt the same and Anthony nodded in agreement with his two friends.

A young woman smiled brightly at the three old men, her smile was not pretentious and it indeed felt very warm.

"Welcome to The Eminent Club', these are the itineraries we offer, it has all the instructions and if you need some assistance you can click on the big button at the bottom on this device and one of our managers will approach you and will guide you" She handed them three black devices with multiple buttons on it and a brochure with the list of itineraries.
