Disappoint Him

[Grant’s POV]My father’s voice echoes behind me as I move toward the large mansion in front of me and when we reach the front door, I shove it open.Once inside, I move straight to the large staircase in the middle of the front alcove while Gianna silently lets me lead her along.When we reach the stairs, we carefully take them one at a time and when we reach the second floor where the sleeping quarters are, I head to my grandfather’s room. However, as we reach, I suddenly stop moving and I’m left staring at the door in front of me.“Grant,” Gianna murmurs as I just stand there staring. “Aren’t you going to go in?”As she speaks, she gently grabs my hand that rests on her hip and she moves it, placing it at my side, making it clear that she feels it would be best that I go in alone.“It’s fine,” she tells me as I shift my gaze to hers. “I’m certain that he wants to see you.”“Maybe,” I chuckle. “But he isn’t exactly happy with me right now.”I was certain that father told him about m

[Grant’s POV]“Don’t be ridiculous,” grandfather huffs. “This is nothing that a bit of rest won’t cure.”Frowning, I take in the man in front of me as I try to keep my composure. I was more than aware that his stubbornness knew no bounds, how could I not? I inherited it myself.“Then let me call…”“I’ve already been examined by Rachel.” he snaps. “You know that she went to school to become a doctor and has even opened her own practice.”“Even then, I would like someone unrelated to examine you.”I don’t know why, but I don’t trust those who hover around grandfather, not when he was the thing standing between the family's inheritance and the position of CEO.There were more than a few people who would want him out of the way so that they can get their hands on power and my father, the man who was closest to him, was one of them.“I’ll call Noel,” I offer. “She will certainly come rushing home to examine and take care of you.”“Don’t bother her,” grandfather sighs. “She is too busy with

[Gianna’s POV]I watch Grant as he steps into his grandfather’s room and when he turns to give me a look of reassurance, I simply nod.Go on, I think, watching him. Go and see him.It is clear that he is worried. The way that he is acting is plenty enough proof of that, and I could only hope that things weren’t too bad and that whatever ailment he was dealing with would be cured soon.Once Grant disappears, I turn my gaze to the two who stand silently beside me and realize that I was now alone with my enemy.Dammit. I think as Rachel’s gaze slowly trails down my body, clearly sizing me up. Maybe I should have tried to go with Grant, but since I didn’t, I would have to play nice for now.“Rachel, was it?” I ask, deciding to break the silence first. “It’s good to see you again.”“Is it?” She asks, making it clear she has no intention of playing nice. “I’m afraid I can’t say the same…what was your name again?”“Gianna,” I smile. “My name is Gianna.”“Gianna,” she repeats, crossing her ar

[Grant’s POV]I stare at my father as he watches me, his gaze darkening from the anger he is working to hold back, but even then, I don’t back down.For years, I was an obedient son. I did what was expected of me. I tried my damndest to get this mans approval, until I learned the truth.He wasn’t a man that would ever accept anyone unless they would do what it was that he wanted.Even now, that was exactly what he was doing with Rachel. He was using her as a pawn to try to get me beneath his thumb, but that wasn’t going to work.I would be damned if I ended up there or like any of the others that he managed to win over.“Grant,” the man in question says slowly. “How could you say such a thing about her? Do you know how that makes her look?”“Do you know how having her follow you around all the time makes her look?” I challenge. “Do you really think people aren’t talking?”I didn’t miss the murmurs in the crowd. I didn’t miss the stares and the looks of amusement because everyone was c
