”Do you want your mum’s position in the company?” He threw an unexpected question.“What?” Gemma couldn't process what she just heard.“I'm sure you heard me the first time, Gemma,” the man stood, looking at her.“Why are you helping me, Mr. Hughes?” Gemma couldn't help but try to find the man’s motive.“If you think I'm doing this for you, then you are wrong, Gemma. I'm only helping the right person. We all know that if you take the seat. More profit will be made," he shrugged.“Think about taking your mum’s position and reach out to me if you make up your mind. I'll have my assistant send my number to you.” Saying this, the man walked off, leaving her standing there and gazing at his retreating figure.“Nice job, sister,” Elena, who was now actively looking for a chance to humiliate and frustrate Gemma, approached her.Gemma didn't heed to her, knowing that she must have approached her just to make a scene.Looking away from Elena, Gemma walked off.

“Who the fuck did this?” Derek thundered, turning around to look at Logan. Who instantly stopped laughing on hearing his angry voice.“Stop acting like it’s a big deal,” Gemma brushed his hand off her face.“What the fuck do you mean? You have large hand prints on your face, yet you think they're nothing?” Derek was now seriously pissed off, not just at whoever had harmed Gemma, but at Gemma too, for always stomaching abuses and acting like they're pretty normal. Heck, being hit was definitely not normal.“I didn't see that earlier,” Logan mumbled, he and Nora approached the couch where Gemma was seated.“It's nothing, you all should stop acting like I fell from a skyscraper or something,” Gemma rolled her eyes, then rose from her seat. Before she could take a step, Derek grabbed her arm, and pushed her back to the couch.“What do you think you're doing?” Gemma was startled.“Get me some ice, Nora,” he requested.Nora instantly rushed off to get the ice. Seeing how Derek was fuming,

Derek’s face was full of smiles as he headed down the stairs. His happiness was nearly short lived when he bumped into a familiar face he thought had already left the house.“Derek, when will I get to see my great grand kid?” The old man asked, stopping right in front of him.“Not again,” Derek could only mumble.“We're working on it, grandpa,” he lied, so the old man could let him off.“I wonder how you're related to me when you blatantly lie to my face,” the old man attempted to roll his eyes at Derek, but ended up closing his eyes, an utter failure.Derek nearly laughed, but tried his best to hold his laughter“What!” The old man narrowed his eyes at him.Derek snickered “When I was your age, I used to be a professional eye roller,” the old man boasted.Someone laughed, making the duo turn around, it was Logan.“I bet you competed in the eye rolling games during the Olympics in your time,” Logan said, enjoying a good laugh Old Mr. Ferguson glared at him.“You two, I need a great

“Get off my son, you filth!” Anna’s voice was enough to pull Gemma out of whatever spell Derek had put on her.She pulled away, taking a step back from him.“Pay no heed to her.

“Nora, stop!” Gemma screamed, getting up on her feet.“What?” Nora yelled, breaking down and crouching to the floor.Derek was beyond stunned, the unsaid word between these two was actually more serious than he thought.

Then wrapped her arms around her, despite Nora protesting.“I’m sorry I hurt you with my words, Nora. I was only thinking of the best way out,” Gemma whispered, letting her tears fall.“I thought you understood,” Nora kept crying.“I swear, I do. It's just that your brother has known Rachel longer than everyone of us. Believe me when I say he’d know the best way to approach her. He would know how to deal with her,” Gemma tried to convince her.Derek took this as his cue to get involved again. If not for anything, but because he was her big brother and was supposed to be let in on everything about her. Th
