The Doctor And The Ceo - Chapter 36

“Actor?” Hahaha Michael laughed.

“Sweety, look at your face, who would make you an actor?” James added.

“That’s exactly what I said, he was offered the role of a tree, can you believe it he wanted that role, I didn’t let him.” Anthony informed others.

The three grandpas laughed again.

Jimmy was standing there with his head down and he felt bad when they were making fun of his acting career.

He tightly closed his fist and wanted to fight back with these three bullies but he was not sure what to say.

“Enough is enough, aren’t you three ashamed of making fun of him?” Rachel snapped and shouted at the three old men. She was agitated to see their behaviour.

The three grandpas suddenly turned quiet and were even scared when they saw her glaring at them.

Rachel continued, “What did you three do in your lives? Grandpa Anthony you loved guitar but did you become a musician? Grandpa Michael you loved cooking, did you become a chef? And you grandpa, you wanted to be a painter did you become an artist? You three didn’t follow your passion so you three can’t tolerate when someone else follows theirs.”

Her words hit the three grandpa’s soft points. They all kept quiet.

Rachel then turned to Jimmy, “Ignore these three, they gave up on their passions and bully the ones who follow theirs, don’t be affected by their words and give your best, I am sure you will become an actor someday.” saying she patted him on his head.

Jimmy felt very happy, he was not used to others taking stand for him and fighting for him. He remembered how Rachel took a stand for him in one of the earlier presentations and she again did the same for him today, he felt very happy and wished Rachel to become a part of his family. He then got a brilliant idea.

“Rachel, can you do me a favor?” Jimmy asked.

“Can you teach me how to be a good businessman, how to handle team members, crack projects and all the skills a good businessman should have. I want to be trained under a professional who is already an expert in business like you.”

Rachel looked at him in a confused state, thinking “why is he asking me to teach business, wasn’t he passionate about acting?”

Daniel understood Jimmy’s plan, he was killing two birds with one stone, ‘This way he will crack a deal as promised to Daniel and would bring Daniel and Rachel closer as she would be spending more time with Jimmy in turn she would be spending more time with him.’

Therefore, he decided to support him, “Yes Rachel, if you can help him I’ll be grateful too, I feel guilty as Jimmy ended up into business because of me. I am carrying that burden so I promised him that if he cracks a project by his own talent, I will introduce him to a famous director who was my friend.”

“Why make him suffer and crack a deal, can’t you directly introduce him to your friend?” Rachel asked.

“My brother wants to prove I am talented in everything I do, I am not quitting business because of lack of capability but because I want to follow my passion. His logic is weird but it makes sense.”

The three grandpas were quiet and didn’t participate in this conversation as they were scared of Rachel and also found it interesting the way this conversation was leading to.

Rachel worriedly thought ‘how could I spare extra time, I have left everything since three months, I can’t expect Sam to work more than he is already doing.’

Daniel understood her dilemma, so he added, “Rachel, you can train him on weekends. No need to spare all your time, my brother is a quick learner if he focuses well.”

Rachel said “ok on weekends I can teach him, I will think where to teach him and tell you later on”

Daniel asked “where is your office?”

“It is located in Hampstead”

Daniel said, “Great, I have my own apartment in that area. I am planning to shift there this week, you can come to my flat to teach him, it will save your time.”

“Yes that’s a great idea” Jimmy got excited as his smart brother understood his move and is supporting him in trapping his future sister-in-law.

“Are you moving to your own flat?” Anthony asked in a shocked voice.

“Yes grandpa, It is near to my hospital, from tomorrow I am joining St Christian City Hospital and have to report to the hospital, I’ll be moving on friday though as I still need to buy some furniture for the house.”

“And when were you planning to tell us.”

Daniel hesitated to answer.

“I and dad already knew of it, he was hesitating how to tell you and mom.” Jimmy cheekily smiled.

“Daniel”

“Come on grandpa, didn’t you have a lot of fun in your young days, how can you stop my brother from being independent and he has been living alone all these years so just let him be.”

Anthony didn’t argue as Jimmy was right.

“Daniel, you have to make sure to have dinner with us at least once a week.”

“Ok grandpa” Daniel looked at Jimmy in relief.
