Daniel Proposal

Daniel didn't waste time greeting his older brother and the rest of the family with hugs and kisses. Especially Alex who last year had been in a life threatening incident.

" Alexander it's good to see you're doing well. You really gave us a scare last. I certainly hope you don't plan to sneak out at night right?" Asked Daniel with an sincere and caring voice.

"Don't worry have learned my lesson. I'm all healed now so you shouldn't be worried uncle." Replied Alex. He gazed into his uncles clear ocean blue eyes, that were full of familiar love.

"That great to hear. I'm honestly sorry I couldn't come and check up on you earlier." Said Daniel with a sigh.

Scratching the back of his head feeling a little sad. That he couldn't personally come check up on Alex at that time.

"I think it's time we all head inside for now, we can't keep our guest waiting outside can we." Reminded Martha. Looking at the loving moment between her brother-in-law and her youngest child.

"Your mother's right, Daniel why don't you come inside. Have a seat you we wouldn't want to keep you here for too long." Added Oliver.

"Oh, right, before I forget I bought you all gifts before I arrived." Remembered Daniel. Before hurrying back to his car and grabbing a hand full of gifts from the back seat of his car.Before handing gifts out to everyone.

" I'm honestly glad Helena talk me out of buying the four of you any clothes." Said Daniel with a relived expression on his face. Handing his nieces and nephew's gifts.

The last time he personally came here to visit his older brother and the rest of the family was a years ago. When Alex got into an accident that left him on the verge of death. After getting hit eight times, leaving him in a coma for a couple of months.

Since then of his niece's and nephew's had grown up a lot. The last time he saw them like this in person.

Especially Duke and Alex who were taller than most of the people he knew. He could tell that both of them would soon surpass him in the height department.

"Can we all head into the house now the neighbors are starting to stare at us." Reminded Martha as looked around their surroundings as she held her gift in her hand. Finally everyone entered into the house and all seat in the living room together.

"So Helena and Vanessa couldn't come with you. How are they doing? Oliver told me about your current situation. " Asked Martha seeing that Daniel had come alone this time.

Helena is Daniel wife, while Vanessa is their daughter who is only currently six years old now this year. From what Martha remembered the last time she saw her niece.

" Yes, sorry to say, we just decided to move to America a few months ago and we finally just found a place to live in." Said Daniel.

With a rye smile on his face; moving wasn't a big deal for Daniel as he had previously lived in America for a time. Before moving back to London with his father leaving Oliver in the states with Martha.

Who at that time had already given birth to his nephew Duke. He had always discretely kept in touch with the two of them helping out were he could. Without the knowledge of his father who disowned Oliver for staying with Martha.

Back to the topic the same couldn't be said for his wife and daughter. Who were moving to a new country for the first time. Daniel hadn't thought of moving to America, however his father's recent actions had forced him.

Daniel on the other side is secretly glad that his father had decided to make his illegitimate son his new successor.

What really upset him was that woman and her son tried to cut him out of his inheritance and the company. He had worked so hard to build up all this time to its current level. While his father just set and watched which in all honestly didn't surprise Daniel.

At the very least, so for the last year and half Daniel had been in a hard legal battle with them. Daniel was able to receive a several millions out of the legal battle after which Daniel finally decided to move.

He wanted to get away from his so called father and also move closer to his only close living relatives in America. Oliver seeing his younger brother mood souring decided to change the topic.

"Know you have a lot on your plate right now and we don't want take to much of your time. Alex tell your uncle Daniel about your business proposal."

Alex was a little surprised by his father putting him on the spot like that without prior warning. However, Alex wasn't a shy person and immediately went to get his things before explaining his idea to his uncle.

Daniel was surprised to see his older brother's, youngest son talking and explaining business and economic so fluently.

He had spoken to Oliver over the phone about Alex's condition. Even personally speaking to Alexander over the phone several times before. But, seeing Alex explaining and to talking about his own field of expertise truly shocked him greatly.

After an hour of listening and asking various questions Daniel finally decided to agree to get involved, with this business proposal. However, it did still bother Daniel greatly that Amazen wouldn't be profitable for the next couple of years.

As like Alexander put, it's their mean focus would be on relentless custom satisfaction. Becoming the center of online consumer marketing across the States.

As the internet was becoming more popular by these days and more people began using it. Daniel could see the possible success of this idea of online shopping.

However, Daniel never liked putting all his eggs in one basket and he had already invested most of his money. Into his own business he wanted to start here while putting some away for insurance.

"Okey, I'm well to invest some money into this project but, under one condition." Said Daniel in a serious and business like tone as he looked at his nephew.

"Alex, I have read and hear good things about the book you wrote Jurassic Park... Your father also told me how you had even written up a manuscript and were able to sell it to a big movie studios." Rubbing his Daniel thought about this from a realistic perspective.

" So seeing that you are talented at writing and coming up with interesting stories. I would like to write me a few television series ideas for me. And if they are to my liking. I'll invest even more in your business proposal do we have a deal." Stated Daniel with folded hands.

Daniel had been investing a lot of money into creating a television division under his father previous company here in America. Wanting to Enter the entertainment industry with this.

However, it hadn't been going so well and it was one of the reason why his legal battle.

With his half brother and his half brother mother ended so quickly. He was basically given a few millions of euros to end the legal battle. If this failing division was split from their company and taken over by himself becoming abandoned.

Daniel had previously wanted to sell off the failing television channel after establishing a much more stable business. However, upon seeing Alex also having the idea of starting not one but, possibly two television channels made him reconsider.

He wanted to see if his nephew was actually talented or just a one hit wonder. If he was able to help boost his failing television channels ratings to new heights.

"Wait, does uncle have his own television station?" Asked Alex. His eyes wided as his heart race with excitement.

"Yes, its meanly a British sport news channel with a few of its own original live action television series broadcast to the USA." Replied Daniel honestly.

Before Daniel could continue explaining in detail about the type of program being broadcast. Alex had already left the living room in an instance before returning after a few minutes. Carrying large sheets of papers, which he then placed on the table in front of his uncle.

Which he then separated into three separate sheets. Daniel leaning forward to read the names written in front of the large sheets of papers X Files, Law and Order, Friends. Looking at the names of the Daniel could roughly tell guest the premises of the last two just by the name.

"I assume these are your ideas for television series you had already written before hand." Asked Daniel with arched eyebrows.

Surprised that his nephew had already written stories for television series.

"Yes."

Replied Alex nodding his head in conformation.

"It's seems your pretty confident in your writing skills, however I am sorry to say. But, I can only decide to try and implement one of these shows at the moment." Replied Daniel.

Picking up one of the sheets of papers he read through the introduction page before putting it back down. Looking back at Alex to see his reaction to his suggestion.

"Well that may all depend on how you well things go." Continued Daniel. Opening the first page of one of Alex concepts.

'Law and Order'

Alex hadn't really thought of anything before he run down to get his manuscript, of television series he wanted to make. Alex had written this manuscript during his spare time. He had been thinking of the best way to get them off the ground quickly.

Alex had been thinking that if he was able to spare enough money from his novel and Castle Wolfenstein earnings. He would try to have his godfather David help them start a small television station.

Little did Alex know that his caring distant uncle just had what he needed, "It's alright uncle we can just start with this one." Said Alex. Picking up the other large manuscript and handed it to his uncle.

"Friends?" muttered Daniel to himself as he received the large sheets of papers from his nephew who had a large smile on his face.

After discussing with Alex, they agree about how they would go about making their first television show. Daniel promptly asked to have a private conversation with Oliver after which everyone else left the room.

"Well, it seems you were not lying, when you said Alex was the one who came up with this of Amazen." Said Daniel with a gentle smile on his face. Looking at into his older brother emerald green eyes.

"Yes, for the last couple of months Alex has been working hard for his own future. In fact his already started running his own company for a few months now and my name." "What!!" Yelled Daniel in auto shack and disbelief at what he just heard.

Daniel could tell just by looking at his nephew Alex. That he had changed completely for the better. If nothing want wrong they all wouldn't need to worry about him future.

Alex being able to write his own works was a great sign of self reliance on Alex part. But, Alex already running his own company was another thing in entirely.

"Sorry, please excuse my rudeness but, what do you mean by Alex running his own company?" Asked Daniel composed himself from his previous shock.

"It's okey that why I hadn't mentioned it to you over the phone. I wouldn't believe it myself if I were in your shoes. But, it true Alex has been running his own gaming company for a few months now. They've just released their first game." Continued Oliver to explain in greater detail about what Alex had been up to.

"Huhhh... will its good to see that my nephew Alexander is now doing well, but I'm sorry to ask you this aren't you worried. If one day he suddenly go back to his previous self before the accident." Asked Daniel carefully wording his concerns to his brother. Hearing Daniel concerns Oliver frown slightly before relaxing his eyebrows.

"Let's not worry about things that may or may not happen for the moment. You also don't need to worry yourself about Alex's health, we're all still here to look after him."

Oliver and the rest of the family had already made plans to take care. If Alex if he ever started showing signs of reverting back to his original mental state.

"Seeing as you're now all caught up with our family affairs. How have you been doing lately. What did that man's new mistress and offspring what take from you that you decided to move continents." Asked Oliver.

Oliver honestly didn't care about that man personally life and business. He only asked as he knew that Daniel needed a place where he could vent his frustration.

And since Oliver had already gone through something very similar to what his younger brother was going through made him the perfect person to talk to.

Sighing Daniel began to relate all the event's that took place during the last year and a half. With their father and his knew family.

It took Daniel nearly three hours to get everything of his chase while Oliver just listened carefully. Without saying a word the entire time. Sometimes it was just best to listen to one's problems then offering advice.

Another reason is Oliver knew that if Daniel wanted it. He could have absolutely not allowed them to take over their father business.

"Alright, so you decide to stop fighting and to instead settle the issue instead why?" Asked Oliver. A little curious about why stop fighting for what was clearly his.

"How many mistress and illegitimate children do you think that man secretly has. Not to mention how he has been treating you and your family over the years. I just woke up day thinking about what I was doing with my life. Where I would end up, if I kept spending more time around people like him." Answered Daniel honestly.

He had come to realize this after a long time of contemplation. He had for a time wanted to feel his father's love and affection. He had even hoped that one day to reunite his family together and forget about the past.

It was only now that he had released that he had actually trapped himself in a false delusion. He didn't want his own wife and daughter to continue to be around people like that anymore hence the move. It was time to start a new with the people closest to him.

"That reminds me I want to ask for you're permission to legal change my name to Williams just like you did." Asked Daniel.

Staring into his older clear emerald green eyes as he spoke out his mind. Daniel and Oliver although half brothers with different mothers they had both been raised by the same mother. As well as the same nanny who had been like a grandmother to both of them.

Both had had already left this world a long time ago while the two of them were still youths. Hearing Daniel proposal Oliver shook his head lightly smile.

"You don't need my permission to take on that name and I know that she wouldn't have mind either if she were still here." Replied Oliver.

Before standing up and embracing his younger brother. Martha who had come down was able to get to witness this heart warming moment from the stairs. She was planning on asking if the two of them were hungry and wanted something to eat or a drink.
