Jason's grandfather shook his head at John with great disapproval and dismay."How dare you say such a thing? Jason has been the only one to care for us ever since you ran away with all our savings. There was a time when I prayed and hoped that, one day, you would change. But it seems that I was a fool to wish for such." Jason's grandfather spat, tears filling his eyes as he shook with disappointment.Jason looked at his grandparents and watched as John broke their hearts, whatever hopes they had that he would change was gone. He only wished they would remember this forever and stop letting him back into their lives. John's face scrunched up with hatred as he glared at Jason. "This is all your doing. If you had not come into our lives, this would not have happened." He said as he swayed on his feet, and spat at Jason. Jason wiped away the saliva, disregarding John.The gang leader who seemed to have had enough of their family drama finally mobilized them."Men! We will go into that
Recognition flashed in the eyes of the gang leader when he took notice of the huge man. The man stopped before them with his eyes raking over the thugs with hard eyes. "You look smashing today, Sir." The gang leader said but the huge man ignored him.When the gang leader saw that the man was blatantly ignoring him he then asked,"Sir, what brings you to this side of town? I didn't know that you did business around this area." He asked folding his hands behind him like a child waiting for his mother to discipline him."Yeah, you are usually at the casino by this time of the day." Another gangsters piped up."You shouldn't have stressed yourself coming here. You should have told us and we would have gladly taken care of it." The gang leader added.Before the gang leader could make up an excuse for harassing Jason the man slapped him so hard while wearing heavy brass rings on his fingers, that his head snapped to the side.The gangster's backed away, knowing that the man was not there
"Why?" That was the first word that left Jason's mouth."I'm afraid I can't say, young master." The man replied.Jason grew a bit tense. Did something happen? "When… when is he expecting me?" Jason finally asked."Right now. It was why he sent us over. To escort you to the mansion." "Ok.. it's already late. Give me a few minutes and let me pack some change of clothes." Jason said, not waiting for the man to respond and quickly hurried back to the house.Jason pushed the door open and found only his grandfather in the living room where he had left them earlier."Your grandmother has gone to bed." His grandfather answered the question that was on the tip of his tongue.He nodded and was about to go to his room when his grandfather called him back."Jason…." His grandfather began, uncomfortably.Jason had an idea of what he wanted to tell him. Probably about him not being their biological grandson."About what your uncle John said out their….we can explain. You see your grandmother and
What did he mean that I wasn't going anywhere soon? Jason thought in his head.His eyes widened at the possibilities but he pushed them aside. If they wanted to do something to him they would have done it a long time ago.Jason finally looked at the room. The room itself was more expensive looking than his entire house. The light in the room did not flicker every three seconds like the one in his room back home.He walked to the bed and let his backpack fall on it.The sheets on the bed were pristine and he knew that the blankets that would be brought to him would be way more softer and less scratchy than the one he used at home.There were two other doors in the room apart from the one that he'd just come in from.He knew that one of them would probably lead to a bathroom but where did the other one go?He walked cautiously to the door at the other side of the room and pushed it open and indeed it was the bathroom.There were marbles on the floor and on the counter, infact everywher
Jason sat down on his bed, his thoughts were all over the place. He had just come back from his grandfather's office thirty minutes ago, but he could not remember if he had done anything since then.That is my condition.You'll start working as an intern at the company, Jason.The words his grandfather had spoken to him were still loud in his head.He knew that he had to decide on something soon.Jason wanted answers on what had happened to him and his real parents but he didn't know if Robert would tell him anything if he declined his offer.He sighed heavily with frustration. He needed to distract his mind from what his grandfather had said. He pulled out his phone and was surprised to see that he was tagged on a lot of posts on the school website and all over social media.Luckily it was a Saturday so he didn't have to worry about being stalked when he went to school.He clicked on the first link and what he saw was a shock. There were videos of Hudson running around the school wi
Jason watched as Robert beamed. Clearly, the old man was happy and so was Anna. Although she didn't do anything other than smile at him."That is really good to hear. A great decision, Jason." Robert said.They continued eating and then Robert was called away."So, what made you say yes?" Anna asked when it was just the two of them seated at the table."Excuse me?""Why did you say yes Jason?" She asked again.Jason simply shrugged a shoulder."Is it the money?" Anna asked setting down her cutlery."I already told you before, I don't want your money." Jason told her."That wasn't the case yesterday when you made a transfer of over a million dollars to your school's account." Anna replied.His cheeks reddened."About that…" he began, " I'm sorry I used the money without prior notice." "Don't worry about it. I'm just curious." Anna replied.They both finished their food and Jason called his grandfather.They spoke on the phone for close to thirty minutes. The old man was worried and J
Jason was seated at the dining table with Robert and Anna.They were having dinner."Desmond has made all necessary arrangements for you to start your internship." Robert spoke up.Jason paused before resuming chewing his food. "That was fast. I thought it'll take a lot of time." Jason replied."Normally it would, but you need to start immediately. We can't afford to waste any time." Robert said."Of course." "You must understand that the reason why I don't want anyone to know your true identity is so that they would treat you as they would treat anyone." Robert said, looking at him.Jason nodded and crossed his legs under the table."About that…" He began."What is it?" Anna spoke up from opposite him."I really don't think that a bodyguard is necessary." He finally said."I thought we've had this discussion." Robert said with a sigh."We have." Anna replied and they both narrowed their eyes at Jason as they waited for him to talk.Jason set down his cutlery and they made a clink a
Jason woke up feeling all determined and ready to conquer the world. He was awake long before his usual time. He took his time having his shower and went to his wardrobe.He rummaged through it and then pulled out a dress shirt that he had worn during his first year of school.He put it on and a pair of pants before he wore his best shoes.He looked at his phone for the time. He still had an hour left to get to work.He came out to find that his grandmother had already left for her morning shift.That would change soon, he thought in his head.His grandfather was having his breakfast in the kitchen and he joined him."Good morning, grandpa." Jason looked at his grandfather when he didn't respond to his greetings. He made himself toast and coffee before he sat down beside him."Good morning grandpa." Jason repeated."Oh… I'm so sorry Jason. I didn't see you there." His grandfather replied with a smile that quickly slipped off his face. "Where… where are you going to?" He asked.Ja
