Chapter 288 - The Grand Welcome (5) (1/2)

Rachel looked at Robert who was standing behind her in surprise and he just have her his smile instead intending her to guess.

She went up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck to place a kiss on his lips as she spoke ”I didn't know you could change into another human being to, you always surprise me.”

He gently tugged the hair that were falling on her eye behind her ear and said in a soft tone ”I recently learned this but it's not a big deal now tell me do you want to go shopping with your dad or fiancé.”

Rachel laughed loudly and then hugged him tightly ”Off course my fiancé, I don't want to be caught making out with my dad.”

He laughed with her which was contagious and then he held her by her waist and took her out. She beamed happily as she bought all the things she required as gossips spread around like wildfire everyone knew that Rachel was Charles daughter and everyone treated her kindly trying to get on her good side.

After they were done shopping, they had their lunch and went back home. Rachel called a few more guests that were remaining on the guest list and then they began to decorate the house. A day before the party Jamie was back too and on that day everything was perfectly fine and finally Daisy was invited too.

She was so happy to see everything that she began to cry. Jamie called her daughter and kissed her on forehead ”I am so proud of you, everything is so wonderful.”

Rachel smiled ”Thanks for trusting me.”

She patted her head ”Alright now after half an hour bring the cake too.”

Rachel nodded ”I asked Robert to get it prepared exactly as you said, I will ask him to get it.”

Jamie nodded and Rachel left to go to the kitchen. Robert was already there making sure everything was alright, she went up to him and kissed his lips and then she spoke sweetly ”Sweetie where is the cake.”

Robert looked at her with a questioning gaze ”Darling, I brought everything you asked me to but the cake was not on the list so I thought that you were going to arrange it.”

Rachel's face lost all it's colour for a moment as she said ”Please tell me you are joking and the cake is here.”

He took out the list and showed it to Rachel ”Look, the cake is not on the list.”

Rachel's heart leapt in her chest and she looked at Robert with a pale face and a trembling voice ”Oh no, I messed it up. What are we gonna do now.”

Robert held her shoulders and said softly ”Stop panicking we will figure something out.”

Rachel started pacing around the kitchen panicking ”How are we gonna figure it out. It was a custom cake and it can not be made in half an hour, even if I ask mom to give me an hour, it won't be ready.”

Robert didn't say anything but was in a deep thought for a while then he said ”Sweetie I have an idea we could go to a bakery and get it done in the cakes that they have not put frosting on. It can be done quickly and we can be back in time.”

Rachel nodded her head her brows still furrowed but she didn't want to give up the chance so she went along with Robert.

On the way to the bakery she said in a panicked tone ”I just don't want mom to find out, it is better if we settle everything without her knowledge or I will have to take the regular cake and tell her everything. I promised her not to mess it up and I can't take it.”

Robert patted her back comforting her he replied softly ”Don't worry, we will figure this out, we will make sure she doesn't find out.”
