The Amazing Doctor: Gerald's Ascendance Chapter 27
Gerald paused and his instincts kicked in. Something didn't feel right. His instincts were tingling, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up and he could have sworn that they were being followed. “Grace, i think we should head back inside.” he said, pulling her back. “I think we should head back inside,”“Why? what's wrong?” Grace frowned as she noticed the panicked look on Gerald’s face. “I’m not quite sure but…” Gerald’s voice trailed off as he scanned the path ahead and behind. “I’d feel better if we weren’t out here alone.”Grace nodded, completely trusting his judgment which shocked her a little. Since when did she trust this man so much? They turned to head back towards the house but they didn't even take more than a few steps when a figure emerged from the undergrowth. It was Tao, Chang’s bodyguard. His large frame blocked their path, and the fierce look on his eyes was enough to make a man’s skin crawl.

“My parents.” Grace whispered as she unconsciously tightened her grip on Gerald. Her heart pounded against her chest with anxiety as she wondered how her parents would take the news of Gerald. Her father in particular, had always been strict about who she brought into their lives. What would he think of Gerald after an incident like this?Grace was still thinking about her next move when she caught sight of Chang and Jao leading her parents towards their direction. Her heart beat increased ten fold when she saw the scowl on her father's face, Chang however had a smug smile which Grace didn't miss.“Father, mother.” Grace rushed to greet them as she tried to keep her composure. Her mother offered her a small smile in response but her father's expression remained cold, his eyes fixed on Gerald who stared back at him with hands in pocket.“Grace, whose this?” Mr Zhao asked with the authority of a man who was not used to being questioned.“Thi…this is Gerald.” Grace replied, trying to so

“Gerald.” Mr Zhao began with a tone that was vastly different from before, shocking even Gerald. “I….I apologize for my earlier harshness, I didn't realize who you were, I owe you a debt of gratitude for what you did for my father. Forgive me, let's not end things on such a sour note. I was hasty in my judgement.”As if to prove his point, Mr Zhao sucked in another deep breath and right before the shock gazes of everyone, he bowed. “What!” Gerald was taken aback by the sudden change in Mr Zhao's attitude. Just moments ago, the man was ready to throw him out without a second thought, and now, after learning about how he saved his father, he was ready to make amends? The shift was so quick, it made Gerald's dizzy.“Uh…” For a second, Gerald didn't know what to say, but he managed to just simply say. “Thank you for your kind words.” The respect he had hoped for didn't feel as genuine as he would have liked but this was a nice start.“Why don't we come inside?” Mr Zhao asked as he notic

Gerald followed Grace's parents into the lavish living room, still recovering from the drastic shift in Mr. Zhao's demeanor. He glanced at Grace with a raised eyebrow, and she offered him a reassuring smile, though he could tell that she was as nervous as he was.They settled onto the soft plush couches, and after a brief moment of awkward silence, Mr. Zhao cleared his throat, his stern expression softening—a rare sight to see.“Gerald, I want to apologize again for my earlier behavior. It was unbecoming. I hope you can understand a father's concern for his daughter,” Mr. Zhao said, though Gerald couldn't tell whether it was a genuine apology.“I understand, Mr. Zhao. A parent's concern is natural. I just want you to know that I would never do anything to harm Grace. She is... very important to me,” Gerald nodded and said with a straight face.Grace’s face heated up like a bright tomato, and she felt giddy inside. Madam Zhao, who had been observing Gerald, cleared her throat to speak

Grace and Gerald sat together in a comforting silence for a few minutes, enjoying the moment before Grace took a deep breath and stood up.“It's getting late. We should get some rest; it's going to be a long day tomorrow,” she said to Gerald, flashing a small smile.“Alright then,” Gerald stretched his arms and rose to his feet. “Where should I sleep?” he asked as he glanced around.Grace hesitated for a moment as her mind raced, but eventually, she sucked in a deep breath. “You'll sleep in my room.”“Heh?” Gerald blinked, his thought process slowing down. “Your room?” he repeated, as if unsure of what she said the first time.“Yes,” Grace nodded with a serious expression. “If we're going to present a united front to my family, it needs to start now. The family needs to see you as more than my boyfriend, so... I thought this could solidify our relationship and show them that we stand together.”“Solidify?” A devious smirk spread across Gerald's face. “What exactly do you mean by that?

“Calm down,” Grace pleaded with him and he sighed, taking a step back and letting her take control of the situation. “Uncle, that was unnecessary” She turned to face her uncle, doing her best to calm the rage simmering in her chest. “Gerald is my guest, and he deserves to be treated with respect.” “Respect?” Her uncle's eyes narrowed as he looked at her, “You’re defending him? it ‘s quite amusing that you’re so eager to protect him with what’s at stake here.”“What do you mean?” Grace’s eyebrows creased together as she asked.“You don't know?” A small chuckle escaped his lips. “Tell me something dear niece, what will you do if you decide to marry this man? Surely you know that marrying outside the family would mean giving up your position as CEO. You wouldn't be a part of this family anymore.”His words were like a bucket of cold water that splashed on Grace’s face. Her mind raced as her uncle's words echoed in her mind but she calmed down and stood her ground.“Marrying Gerald wo

Grace held her breath as the phone continued to ring. After a few minutes, the call finally connected and her grandfather's familiar voice came through the speaker.“Grace, my dear? How are you?” he asked with that caring voice that she always loved.“Grandfather, I..I need to talk to you.” She said, fighting to keep her voice steady.There was a brief pause on the other line before he spoke again. “Of course, tell me what's troubling you.”Grace took a deep breath and glanced at Gerald, who nodded at her in encouragement. “Grandfather.* Grace began, trying to steady her emotions but she broke down trembling as tears slipped down her cheeks. “I…I’m in over my head right now. Uncle Zhang and Chang, they are threatening to take everything. He says that he believes that you are not well and he will use every means necessary to take over the company. I don't know what to do. I'm losing my mind.”A long pause followed. Grace eagerly awaited her grandfather's response but there was nothi

“How could they be one step ahead of me?” Grace clenched her fists as the reality of the situation dawned on her. She had to do something quickly, or she would lose heavily in this business war. She stepped out of the car with Gerald following closely after her. They approached the entrance, only to be stopped by a guard. “Miss Zhao, I’m sorry, but Mr. Chen isn't expecting you,” the guard said as he blocked their path. “It's really urgent; I need to see Mr. Chen now!” Grace's frustration was through the roof as she spoke through gritted teeth. “Sorry.” The guard shook his head. “I can't let you in without his permission.” “But why can't…” Before Grace could continue her argument, Gerald's strong arm grabbed her shoulder, stopping her from arguing further. He gazed at the guard with such authority that the guard started to feel very nervous. “Call Mr. Chen. Tell him that Gerald is here.”
