The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Without hesitating, he knocked on the chipped door as he awaited a response. Not hearing anything, he knocked once again, a bit louder this time around. He awaited albeit patiently as he began to hear the shuffling of footsteps from the house, and couldn't help the smile that appeared on his face in anticipation of seeing either his parents or siblings whom he hadn't seen in a long time. Keys turned in the keyhole, and Adam impatiently shifted from foot to foot, after what seemed like years, though it was a few minutes the door opened and Adam sighed in relief and utter pain at the sight of his mother, at a hair breath, he flung the hat away and gazed at his mother with eyes of sadness and happiness. She had gotten a lot older from the last time he had seen her, her hair had more streaks of grey in it and was thinning out, she looked more frail and her eyes looked sunken in, with a large amount of wrinkles on her face, he couldn't believe it was his mother before him. His heart
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
"Father, it's me. I'm sorry Father, I'm so sorry for the pain my absence must have caused. It's truly me Father, I've been released and I'm never going back to that dungeon" In between tears, Adam replied to his father, his tears flowing down to the feet of Hector. "It's really our son Hector, it's Adam in the flesh. Your eye isn't playing tricks on you, our Adam is back." Julia amidst her tears informed a still shocked Hector. Tears welled up in Hector's eyes at the words of his wife and the sight before him, his eyes not leaving the bent form of his son on the ground. Hector bent forward, his thin arms around his son as he enveloped him in a hug, giving way to the sob that threatened to leave his chest. "My son, my son, my son is back" Hector continuously cried out. Julia on seeing both her husband and child enveloped in a bittersweet hug, moved closer and cushioned herself between them, crying in relief at the reunion taking place. Adam cleared his throat, as he looked at both
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Both mother and son stared at each other, one with a questioning look, and the other with a smile as he stretched his hands. Knowing how determined his mother could be, he dragged her closer with his other hand. "Mama, I'll tell you everything soon, just know that this money was obtained legally and lawfully. I wouldn't do anything that would jeopardise my freedom. Something I've yearned for years after being wrongly incarcerated, trust me Mama" Adam told his mother reassuringly, his eyes shone bright and crinkled at the corner. He more than understood her fears, and so he wasn't offended, it was no news that he had been poor before leaving for prison, and his account barred. Julia stared at her son, although she knew she'd raised a good man, she was still curious as to the origin of the money. "That money in your hand can buy us foodstuffs that'll last more than six months Adam! I hope you realise this, and understand my fears and inhibitions. In all my life, I've been yet to see s
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER NINETEEN
Adam stared intensely at his father, crossing and uncrossing his legs, as he tried to avoid the temptation of pacing the worn floor, waiting in anticipation for his father to mention the person, he could hardly sit still. One thing was certain, he was going to deal with the person at the right time, not sparing them at all. Hector took a little while to respond, as though he was scared to speak. Dutifully, Adam gently touched his hands, his face hardened at the fear in his father's countenance, he clenched his fist in anger, trying to assuage his father's fears, he calmly said, "Father, you have nothing to be worried about. No harm will come near you Father.""How can you say that!? We have nothing, we are nobody, how can we not worry and be scared of those capable of doing evil." Hector paused, sighing, he continued on, his tone a whisper this time "How can I not worry, when the very person who sent you to prison, is the same one who had me beat up""I was attacked a few months ag
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER TWENTY
Adam flinched, his hands leaving his father's warm hands, as he stared into space. Although his father's voice had been low, he heard clearly "Willliaamms? William Bates did this?" he quietly asked no one in particular. Williams wasn't entirely surprised, he knew the kind of dirty and tricky person Williams was, but whatever hostility there was, was between them both, he didn't think it extended to his family. "He will pay!" fist once again clenched, teeth grating, and veins bulging Adam declared. Hector cleared his throat, turning himself in his seat to face a standing Adam who currently had his back turned on him, Adam didn't want his father seeing his anger and hurt. "Not only Williams my son, Madame Cecil as well I overheard her voice on the phone. The guy had put the phone on speaker causing me to hear the conversation, it was as if they wanted me to hear it all" As his father spoke, his words sent chills down Adam's spine To hurt him was one thing, to hurt and humiliat

At the question, Adam smiled to himself, he liked Raul; he was efficient"I'm glad you called, and I'm also glad you asked that. There is something I'd like you to do. I would like a good and furnished house for my parents, bought in their name. How soon can I get that?""Just say the word, give the go-ahead Sir, and it is done."Adam visibly inhaled and exhaled at that proclamation, the power money wielded was indeed something. "Take this as my go-ahead then Raul"Over the phone, Adam could hear Raul chuckle lightly "Got it, Young Master, do you have any preference or area in mind, what sort of house would you like it to be?"Adam hadn't thought of that, but one thing was certain he wanted an area that was way above Hillsbury"They are a little old, and my father currently can't walk well, and so…" "I'm sorry to hear that Sir" Raul cut in, and Adam nodded his head in gratitude, remembering Raul couldn't see him over the phone, he mumbled"Thank you Raul" and continued "So I don't t

Just as Adam made to reply, a loud shriek sounded outside, and both brothers dashed to check what the problem was, with Adam in the lead. Pushing the door open, he was met with a tornado in the form of his sister, who promptly jumped on him, grinning from ear to ear. Adam chuckled lightly at her display, he had missed her and her dramatics, he smiled widely in return as they both looked at each other. "Alright let's take this party inside, Noah come help me carry these things inside, Leah gets off your brother and give a helping hand" their mother instructed both grumbling siblings, shaking his head in amusement, Adam joined in to clear their balcony as they all proceeded inside. **** "I dare say that was the best meal I've had my entire life. No offence mum" Winking at his mother, Noah rubbed his stomach, with a huge contagious grin on his face "None taken Noah, and it's all thanks to your brother" Julia responded. The family were currently
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE
Not waiting to gauge their reactions, his eyes filled with fury, he headed out to inspect the noise, and was taken aback to see hefty men ranging about ten, banging the railings on their rickety gate, as they shouted and glared into their house. They held different weapons in their hands, ranging from cutlasses to machetes as well as knives and daggers, like they were going for a war. Adam looked behind him to see his mother and sister cowering in fear, while Noah seemed to be fidgety, shifting from one foot to the other, looking extremely uncomfortable. Adam held his eyes, and raised his brows in question, sparing the men a glance, while Noah was unable to hold his gaze. "where the hell are the occupants of this house? Come the fuck out right now! You already know what we're here for. We hear the jailbird is out, the more, the merry. Right, guys?" one of them who looked to be the leader bellowed and asked his hefty minions, all of them nodded as they laughed. Having enough of th

Chapter 1. (A glimpse into The Unrefined Jason Lee)
September 29th 2009, “W-here's where's m-my Angel?” As Jason opened his eyes, he looked around, dazed. The eyes felt too heavy to be opened, but he refused to close them. As his eyes rested on the strange man, he blinked rapidly, "W-who are y-you?” he questioned while staring intently at the man, "For now, that's not important. You'll get to know me in time, but right now, we need to leave this shack! Your life is in danger!” The strange man muttered, his eyes darting between the shack and the door. Hearing the urgency in the man's voice, chills crept down Jason's frail body, and he gulped, returning his gaze to the man, he blinked once more, "W-what do you m-mean? I'm safe here, nobody will ever think to f-find me in a shack” The strange man scoffed, and shook his head, “Boy, if only you knew”, was his curt response, and as Jason watched him, he struggled to sit up against the bare and flat mattress that lay on the floor. The more Jason stared around his surroundings

CHAPTER FOUR HUNDRED & ONE
Adam was back in the basement, and he walked straight to the den of the old man, with Raul trailing behind him. He walked into the den and met the Old Man and Sage Robinson already sitting and waiting for him. They had heard the news and were waiting to congratulate him. “The man of the moment,” Dreymond called out from the corner where he was seated and Adam turned to see him and Amber seated together. Adam had not seen Amber since the other day at the coast brother’s basement and he was glad that she was recuperating. Old man Thompson stood up and walked towards Adam as they both approached each other. The old man saw the passion in his eyes and stopped. He tapped him on the shoulder and nodded his head, and everyone in the room had to do the same. That was the brotherhood way of celebration, “Weldon Adam,” The old man said and patted him on both sides of his shoulder. He was in prison with Adam, and he knew how he had fought for this moment, and he was very proud to be part of

CHAPTER FOUR HUNDRED
After Adam had dropped her off, Leila walked into their home with sweaty palms, occasionally biting at her lips,She tried to keep her cool and not let her nerves get the best of her. She had already told Joan that she would be back just in time for their dad's arrival, and now, she had probably missed that. She walked into the living room gently, trying to be as silent as possible, hoping not to bump into either Joan or her father she tried to sneak in but she faltered in her steps with popping eyes to discover both of them in the sitting room discussing,“Leila.” Her dad called out gently as she walked in, with her gaze lowered and her fingers crossed at her back,“Come here, princess.” Her father said, spreading out his arms to receive her in for a hug. “I am sorry I was not here to welcome you, papa.” She whispered tearfully as she hugged her father tightly,“I know I have disappointed you; please forgive me, papa.” She said as she continued to let it rain with her tears.“I am

Seeing the expression on Mira's face, her mother quickly ran towards her and immediately grabbed the phone out of her hand, glancing at Adam before glancing at the phone, and as she did, her hands began shaking and her eyes popped out, also gasping like her daughter, “W-what. Un-unbelievable, Im-po-ssible” she kept stuttering and looking dazedly at Adam, Mira gaped at her empty hand, and back at Adam, her mouth agape. She swallowed and looked at him, “Fifty million euros, Adam?" As soon as she revealed the amount, everyone around gasped and turned their gaze at Adam, whose cheeks were turning slightly red; he nodded subtly at Mira while Leila stood staring at him unabashedly, grinning from ear to ear. Still smiling a little, Adam informed a still-stunned Mira, “One of my men will reach out to you, I'd like for you to head one of my companies. You were instrumental in my daughter's well-being as well as meeting a great woman" he cast a glance at Leila and she blushed. Madam Ruth

CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-EIGHT
Once again Madam Ruth burst into a loud laughter, clutching her stomach as she did. Every other person watched as she laughed, Mira on the other hand gaped at Adam, unable to string any words together,A part of her was certain the reveal was true as there was something about Adam that was quite different and he didn't seem like a pauper the way her mother had made him out to be.Leila's eyes darted at Adam, and she tried holding their gaze to confirm it, but Adam wasn't looking at her; his face was almost blank, sans the little smirk she caught on his face. She found herself wondering if whatever he had to reveal was in line with what had just been revealed.Madam Ruth once again cut short her laughter and spluttered, glancing at the manager as she spoke in a disbelieving voice,“Are you blind or what? Or perhaps you hit your head on the way here," she deduced mockingly, and the man sneered at her, refraining from deeming her with a reply.The man, alongside others, ignored her, as A

“What do you mean by that?!" Leila asked, nearly shrieking as she stared at him, and in return, Adam nodded,Leila continued to gape at him, she was a mix of confusion and shock at what Adam had said, even if he hadn't elaborated on it,“W-what do you mean, Adam?" She questioned, focusing her gaze on him, Adam sighed and expelled a breath simultaneously, sitting upright on his seat, he opened his mouth to respond,“I'm the lost heir of Mar…”Before he could continue, a loud voice broke through his response, and the voice was oddly familiar,"What do you mean my payment didn't go through?! Who the bloody hell are you?! Do you even know who I am?!” The voice thundered, flying out of her seat to land a hot unexpected slap on the stunned waiter’s face,“Mother!!!" her daughter chided beside her and she turned to glare at her,“If you can't defend your mother, then stay out of my way!" Adam turned towards the direction and wasn't surprised to see a snarling Ruth with a downcast Mira stand

CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-FIVE
“Are you shocked?” Adam asked Cecil as he slowly and gently began to walk closer to her. Cecil, who was now filled with fear, could only stare at Adam, at that moment, Stefan’s words began to ring in her head. ‘That man is dangerous, very very dangerous.’ She reminisced and her eyes of their own accord began to water, as she subtly shook her head from side to side, retracting her steps as Adam advanced further,He paused in his steps and turned to face the uniformed men,“These are the culprits" he informed the waiting women who glared at Cecil with death in their eyes, causing her to shiver,“They are the ones who framed me for rape.” Adam continued, pointing to William, Louisa and her mother. Cecil was speechless as she gaped with an open mouth; she couldn't believe Adam had found out about that; they had contacted a very highly profiled criminal to carry out the foul play, and she had been certain there was no way Adam would be able to get his hands on that lady.“What sort of ac
