Chapter 315 - The Most Awaited Night (8) (1/2)

Jessica had come to this place in her car so she helped Robert into the back seat while Jamie carried Rachel in her arms. Jessica came to the front and began driving the car while Jamie made a call to Charles and told him everything that had happened. He too had the same reaction as them although he didn't cry, he was heartbroken for his daughter. He then said in a sad tone ”I will open the back door and you take her directly to her room.”

Jamie agreed and then hung up the call. After they reached the place, they entered through the back door which Robert had made sure that no guest would come to and then Rachel was taken to her room. Jessica looked at Jamie and said ”I will take brother home and then come back.”

Jamie nodded and sent her out she then placed a kiss on top of her daughter's head finally turning towards Robert she spoke ”We should attend the guests first, her long absence might cause problems.”

Charles nodded ”What are we going to tell them because we were supposed to cut the cake at 12 and it's already an hour late, they are getting impatient.”

Jamie looked at him and with a calm expression she said ”I will handle that.”

He nodded and they headed downstairs, as Charles had mentioned they were getting impatient so Jamie went to the stage and said ”I am really sorry for making everyone wait, we were supposed to be good hosts and attend you well but unexpectedly Rachel slipped and fell from the stairs. As they were not much, she was not injured but fell just unconscious so I would like you all to just wait for a while as she gets ready to come back down. We will cut the cake very soon and you can continue with enjoying the party.”

She had to at least wait for Jessica to come back and remove everyone's memories about meeting Robert because if he was brought up in front of Rachel, she was sure to remember everything. She went back to the room after making the announcement and she saw Rachel sitting on the bed looking around confused. At the sight of her mother she asked ”What happened, Mom?”

Jamie took in a deep breath and told her what she had told the guests but then she put on a smile and hugged her daughter ”Thank God you are fine, we were so worried.”

As she pulled back from her mother's grasp a few tears involuntarily dropped from her eyes as she spoke ”Is that it then why do I feel that something really bad has happened as if someone has died and there is the part of my memory that I can't remember. Why am I feeling this strange pain in my chest as if I have lost something really precious.”

She then looked into her mother's eyes nervously ”Mom is everyone alright.”

Jamie suppressed her tears and put on a forceful smile ”Have you hit your head that you are talking like this?”

Rachel tried to smile but the smile didn't form on her lips so she said ”Mom, let's go and cut the cake and get this over with because I don't feel too well.”

Jamie smiled and nodded at her ”Off course we will do that but you have to smile because it is your birthday.”

She nodded and then Jamie said ”Just wait a while Jessica went home for something, she will be back soon then we can go and cut the cake.”

Rachel nodded and then looked at her mother ”Meanwhile tell me about my powers that I have received.”

Jessica had very carefully removed every part of Robert, Kevin and Lora from her memory while taking care that the important parts still remained silent the part about her powers was told to her by Jessica so she didn't need to change anything about it and Jamie too replied calmly ”Let her return and let us finish with all this then she can explain this to you herself.”

She nodded her head and just then Jessica entered the room and began to speak without looking ”I am sorry for being late brother....” she finally said that Rachel was awake and immediately changed her sentence ”Thank God you are awake.”

Rachel looked at her confused ”Since when did you have a brother.”

Jessica looked nervously at Jamie for help who glared at her before speaking ”When do she say she had one.”

”She just said brother.”

Jamie smiled ”It must be a slip of her tongue, now that she is here I want to give you a good news and that is I have decided to adopt Jessica as my daughter as she has no parents.”

At this finally a smile appeared on her face and she hugged her best friend ”Really so we will be sisters.”
