Daniel went to check on his other patient that the nurse paged him for. It wasn't something serious so he finished quickly. he kept thinking about his own problem as his family will get together at that Thanksgiving dinner. He didn't want to go. It wasn't because he hated them, he loved them all but they are harsh on him and he knows they are looking out for him but he always felt like he was restrained. Even when he wanted to pursue his dreams his father cut him off the family cause he felt ashamed cause his dream wasn't what he had planned for him.
He met up with Dennis and gave him a piece of his mind. It was his only option
"I will go to the thanks giving dinner alone " Daniel told him
"haha nice one" Dennis thought that he was joking as this was impossible. If he goes alone he would be the topic of the whole dinner and that would be worse than getting killed.
"...." Daniel stared at Dennis to tell him that it's not a joke. Dennis caught on.
"shit , you are serious . are you kidding me ? you know the consequences right?" Dennis was now worried about his friend.
" I can't think of anything else .after all they are my parents .they can't do anything too serious" Daniel said with a pained smile.
"yeah you said the same thing when you wanted to be a doctor and not continue ruling the family business .you were lucky you had a younger brother who was willing to take over .remember that day" Dennis reminded him of the day when he was cut off the family. His father was so angry that no one dared to tell him to think about what he had done only Daniel's grandfather was the one who stood up for him. He gave him a good proposal.
"yeah I was cut off from my inheritance .they came around after I became a well known doctor and own the hospital I work for and that was only because of Gramps. He was the one who proposed that if I excel in being a doctor rather than being a dancer and make my own business then I would return to the family. Now they want a heiress as if I am a king or something. I know they want to rest assured that the family's legacy will continue but I am still here and I still have dreams." Daniel looked at Dennis and found him staring at his phone. Dennis looked at him
"sucks to be you man ..aw come on I am stating the truth .wait ." Daniel punched Dennis on his shoulder. But Dennis found a solution
"what,...." Daniel looked curious
"hire someone who could act like your girlfriend"
"are you really my friend!!!"
"what?"
" they want a heiress of a high class like rich , well educated and beautiful and they do a background check on everyone I meet , they could even be checking on all my patient's background so yeah it is decided ,I am going alone I won't care "
"I will visit your grave man everyday ...owwwww come on " Daniel punched him again.
"you deserve that punch a**"
"oh my phone is ringing see you later "
Dennis left Daniel alone in the hallway. He started to remember the Thanksgiving dinner six years ago.
The 18 year old Daniel just. Finished his dance class and headed to his closet to wear the tuxedo prepared by his mother to attend the Thanksgiving dinner. At that time he was so afraid of this specific gathering cause he was going to announce something big. His driver sent him a message telling him he arrived. He went to the driver and sat at the back of the Ferrari.
After a while he reached his family mansion and entered. The first person he saw was his grandpa. His grandpa knew what he was about to do today and he gave him his support.
" Hey child, just do it and don't care about anything else. I have three children and I consider you my fourth." His grandfather was referring to Mavis his youngest daughter , Daniel's father Andrew, his eldest son and link his younger son. His relationship between his children were good. But he preferred his relationship with his grandson Daniel as he favoured him the most.
" Come on Gramps no you are making me so old. I still have lots to do . Be sure to stick around " Daniel teased his grandpa as their relationship was built on them teasing each other. Daniel respected his grandfather alot. They both entered the dining room where everyone was seated. Daniel seated his grandfather and went to his seat next to his brother.
After the dinner ended Daniel stood up to gather everyone's attention.
"I don't plan on pursuing dancing or the family business. I plan on being a doctor "
Everyone was shocked upon hearing the news. His father's face looked like it was steaming. He started to threaten Daniel.
" If you dare do that . I will cut you from this family." He said while intentionally breaking a plate.
" Daniel expected that this would happen so he left the room and headed outside. Some people admired his courage like his brother. Others were happy as they thought of him as a threat. But Daniel didn't care about anyone. He felt happy as this was his first step to achieving his dreams.
At the dining room.
" I have a proposal Andrew. " Gramps said to his son.
" So you knew that he would do that and you didn't bother to tell me. ?? "
" I thought you would be able to handle it on your own. As I did to you but you were an idiot. So here is what will happen. He won't come near this house and he will get cut off from his inheritance untill he becomes a world best doctor and make his own business. You. Wanted him to help you with the business and become a world best dancer. So it's going to be the same but a different career. And I didn't ask for your opinion. After all I am still the eldest. " He reminded his son that he was the one who made this business and he was also the one who made him rule it.
" Understood " one word and the topic ended and they started talking about the other son and how he would take over the business and that he shouldn't follow his brother's footsteps.
Daniel came back from his memory land as his pager was ringing. He headed to Sera's room as she was the one that paged. He was surprised as she wasn't the only one in the room. His best friend was with her." I am guessing this pager is something unrelated to medicine. I am also guessing it's related to me personally." Daniel sighed as he new Dennis too well." You are right on. Look I was just bored and Dennis came and we started talking about your family as you are pretty famous. " Sera told him with a smile." Says the singer " Daniel said in a sarcastic tone. He didn't know why he was paged or how his topic was brought up and since when was Dennis a fan of her." Hey , I didn't mean to pry into your life but actually I kind of respect you. I kind of knew you before Meeting you. My family is also in the business circle. My father always wanted to meet one of your family as you are one of the top richest families. The way your grandpa made
After two days since Lucy came.Daniel went to check up on sera as they became good friends since Lucy came. He would usually visit her to check up as a doctor and chat with her.He reached her room and was a bit surprised. He found visitors which was weird cause her parents said that they would come on the weekend cause they were overseas or something. Both of them looked elegant. They wore brand clothes which proved that they are one of the elites.he was too curious that he stared too much on the two visitors. of course he couldn't keep his curious eyes a secret so he flat out asked who they were."and who do we have here?" Daniel said with a smile and slight embarrassment.The girl with the deutch brown boycut hair, wide green eyes and slight chubby cheeks that made her have a cute baby face but an elegant sexy body answered Daniel with a professional tone"hello , my name is Ruby and I am one of the representatives of the shadow c
Sera looked at her two friends in an alarmed way and started talking as soon as the the door was closed by Daniel"Tell me the bad news" Sera knew they came here for the bad news cause they already called her and checked up on her. They agreed to not visit her so why did they come Sera asked herself.Ruby looked at Alex then her eyes gazed at sera's eyes"the interim chief of your entertainment agency is having troubles with your sister's company . I think she is going to show her true colors."Sera looked sad upon hearing what her friend said. Their parents always adored Anna. They even gave her her own entertainment agency that she is about to debut in. Anna never knew that she was the only reason her agency didn't bankrupt." I figured . you need to take care of this problem cause I am stuck in this hospital for a long time " Sera told them while hiding her sadness but they both knew how se felt after all they were always together.
As Daniel's driver stopped at his destination Daniel took a deep breath and wished that this day would end quickly and safely.He came out of the car and looked around. It was the same mansion where he grew up in. Where he got disowned. The mansion looked elegant. It was like one of the king's castle. The gates were too high. The garden was taken good care of as it was apparent due to the sparkle iand the glow that the flowers and leaves emit. He walked through the garden till he reached the door's mansion. It was a wooden door. It looked old but that only showed its elegance.He entered the great mansion and met his first member of the family. He felt happy as soon as he saw him"oh Daniel long time no see brother .why won't you visit me. You know I am not like the rest of the family right. Please visit sometime " James hugged his brother and started nagging him about him not visiting his new house."I am glad you are the first one I meet James ." He r
the table was awaiting Daniel's explanation for what he said. He knew where this was going. He had only one solution and he didn't want to do it.Daniel looked at his brother with a look of begging for an escape from this situation. James figured out his brother's call for help.In James point of view, he knew his brother was about to lie. He knew all his previous girlfriends. He was also the reason for most of them breaking up with him. He just tested them and they were bitches. He saw his brother in a mess. He gave Daniel a look that said ' I will help but you owe me 'James was about to talk but his father interrupted him" James I don't want you to say anything. Did you really think I didn't know that you visited him when I said he wasn't part of the family. I did not care cause you worked hard to replace him but you don't get to cover up for him in this one" their father raised his voice slightly. That made Daniel snap." You know you w
Daniel went to the hospital to find a solution to what he did .he turned the hospital upside down searching for Dennis until he found him in the attendings lounge.he looked at him and Dennis understood that Daniel messed up. Dennis had just finished checking up on his patients. He was about to leave but Daniel looked like he had killed someone. Of course Dennis would have to cover up for what he did as they were friends." What happened ?" Dennis asked Daniel in a worried tone and an anxious gaze. He put his bag on the table as he knew he would have an all nighter. Daniel checked that the lounge was empty.Daniel told him everything that happened while cursing himself. He kept going left and right like an insect that was searching for someone to scare and it made Dennis feel more anxious and stressed."So that answers your question .I need a solution" Daniel finished and stopped walking left and right and that made Dennis relieved. Dennis fo
"I am sorry " Daniel apologized sincerely . He still wasn't able to look at her . He was astonished by her accurate hypothesis." Look me in the eye and say it " sera told him with a serious tone. He started to gather his confidence and looked at her with his grey eyes . He started messing his brown hair and said."I was a dumbass and you can refuse to help me . I would deserve it .I will go tell them I was lying .I am sorry . I did something unacceptable after you trusted me".As soon as he finished talking he looked away from her blue eyes.Sera had a thought and said it out loud"I never thought you were handsome till today . You look like you have done something that you could kill youself for. I will help you for two reasons . First , I am going to need your help sooner or late and you know for what . Second , you are a good person you just wanted to prove your family wrong and I know that feeling . " Sera finished and her words touched and re
A week after Sera's family came . Anna , Sera's sister visited Mark . She started talking to him and telling him about her day. After a while she stood up , kissed him on the forehead and left his room to visit her sister .She opened the door of her room and looked at her. She had he legs broken and one arm. Anna smiled discreetly at her sight . Anna's thoughts were disturbed by her sister's 'hello'" Anna , you came to visit . How are you ?" Sera said with a pure smile. Sera knew her sister hated her but she always loved her so she couldn't help but be pained at what she does to her."My father sent me to give you this article . You are officially disowned . You are no longer part of the family " Sera looked at the article and found her picture next to her father's . The article was about her father disowning her.Sera wasn't fazed at all . She already prepared herself for this ." Do you have any last words f
