The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & NINTY-EIGHT
The sight of the frail man lying on the bed sent a pang to Adam’, a heart, “Mr Sage Robinson, what happened in my absence?”Adam soliloquised loudly to himself in the quiet room, his voice echoing as he did, knowing he wouldn't get his answers right away, he concentrated on the job before him, keeping his questions and worries at bay. He worked meticulously as he mixed potion after potion, herbs after herb trying to heal Sage. He soon finished preparing all the necessary potions to help Sage Robinson with and gently seeped some into his mouth and ears as well, he first had to dispel the poison before he administered the herb that was to heal Sage of his ailment, the fiery sale had to be on hold for now. Done with the first half of his job, Adam waited for Sage to wake up, and as he did, his mind buzzed once again with questions and suspicions, he was still perplexed with what he had met, after his warnings to Sage, the man had still remained careless. For a split moment, he thought
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & NINTY-NINE
Adam tried concentrating as Sage was still speaking,“...Nathan Walsh was one of the few men who supported my decision to bring you to the group to take over from Old Thompson and myself, especially when it looked like I had no spare life left”The old man chuckled lightly at his own joke and Adam broke into a small smile. The face of the man he had met at the door was the opposite of who Sage was making him out to be, the man at the entrance had been nothing but hostile to him, that look wasn't one of a supporter but an arrogant and disdained person.As though his brain and mind were in alliance with his thoughts, his eyes went wide and he gasped a little, as he suddenly remembered why the man had felt familiar; and that was because he was familiar, it was the same man he had seen at the restaurant with Cecil, the one who Cecil had claimed to be her ‘man’.Something wasn't adding up, and knew he had to be careful and on his toes, himself as well as Sage Robinson. There was something

Derek grumbled to himself with his fists clenched tightly, Adam’s appearance had made bile rise in his throat, and he glared at the man with reddened eyes that shown with hatred,The eyes of the man beside him traveled in Derek’s direction, and he gulped just as his body turned white as a sheet, he hadn't expected to see Adam at this event and didn't know Mira had invited him, for if he had known, he would not have honoured Madam Ruth’s invite.Brendan was shaken to the core, but tried to hide it and man up, after all, he was in the midst of great and strong people who could crush Adam at first glance like the big that he was,Feigning ignorance, he tried to mask his fear and asked Derek in an unsteady voice,“W-who’s that man? You seem not to be a fan”Derek ignored him, as he got to his feet and purposely strode towards Adam’s direction, while Brendan trailed a little behind him. With a disdainful smirk on his lips, Derek addressed Adam scornfully,“Well, well, well, if it isn't Ada

With burning eyes, he drew himself to his full height and glared at Derek, his voice was laced with slight amusement while he spoke,“Is that supposed to be a threat, Mr Hamilton? Are you threatening me in an open place?”, Adam folded his arms and lifted his brow in question,Looking Derek straight in the eyes, he asked again, with confidence,“Do I need to call my lawyer and inform him of a threat to my life?"Derek busted into a loud chortle, with tears streaming down his eyes, as he laughed to his heart's content, Adam's questioning sounded ludicrous to his ears and he couldn't help the laughter,Lifting his head to look at Adam, with the amused look still etched on his face, he stammered through the laughter, “Y-you’re more delusional than I thought, it's one thing to know what a lawyer is and another to be able to afford one. Sincerely speaking, I'm quite amazed that you even know what a lawyer is and their job as well”Adam shook his head and scoffed at the young man's stupidit

While Madam Ruth's eyes had harshly landed upon Adam, Derek was still glaring at Adam, grinding his teeth together as he did. Derek, with venom dripping from his voice barely above a whisper, glared at Adam, "This isn't over, not by a long shot," he hissed, punctuating his threat with a look that could freeze hell over. As he tried to compose himself before returning to his seat, Madam Ruth on the stage, with her scanning eyes still locked onto Adam, ignited into flames of unspoken fury.Her face, a picture of anger, twisted further as her lips contorted into a disdainful sneer. A storm brewed within her as she silently questioned within herself, 'What is that bloody commoner doing here?' With no words exchanged, she turned on her heels, her movements sharp and determined as she advanced toward Mira.Mira, observing the approaching storm that was her mother, drew a deep, steadying breath, bracing herself for the impending confrontation, "Hey mother, nice speech up there. You loo

Madam Ruth's glare could have melted steel,"Grace? He mocks my grace!" She yelled, her voice climbing higher, the onlookers exchanged nervous glances,whispering amongst themselves as the tension escalated,“Wow, this is becoming interesting!""What a great show, All that's missing is some popcorn. Ahahaha!"One exclaimed as his eyes danced with amusement,Amber inhaled deeply, she hadn't planned for this night to be this dramatic, and yet it had, expelling a deep breath, she tried to bring some calm to the chaos, gently touched Ruth's arm,"Madam, perhaps we should discuss this privately?" she suggested.Ruth jerked her arm away and Amber scowled, restraining herself from something stupid. Unaware of Amber’s brooding anger, Madam Ruth’s breaths came in quick, furious pants as she stomped her foot,"No! I will not be undermined in my own domain," she declared, her voice breaking through the murmur of the crowd.Adam, still the eye of the storm, merely nodded."Madam Ruth, I meant n

"Make way, please!" The crowd parted, albeit reluctantly, for a man of medium height, with confident strides and a commanding presence. He was dressed not in the evening's finery but in smart, casual attire."I am Dr. Lucas Sterling," he announced, his voice carrying an air of authority that demanded attention.A murmur of recognition passed through the crowd,"Sterling? The Dr. Sterling?" one guest whispered to another, their eyes wide with a mix of surprise and awe."Yes, the very one," Another confirmed, her tone laced with reverence. "They say he's revolutionised medicine in our city. Brought back people from the brink, they say."Whispers continued to swirl through the crowd, painting Dr. Lucas Sterling in nearly legendary shades,"He's the best in the city, they say," A woman murmured to her companion, her voice was a mix of fear and fascination. "Some even claim he can bring people back from the edge of death itself."The awe surrounding Dr. Sterling's reputation seemed to

As he fell to his knee, the laughter immediately died down, and was replaced by gasps, and widening of eyes, "He's choking!" Someone shouted the reality of Adam's warning crashing down on them, and their eyes began darting between Adam and the semi-conscious fellow. An uproar began in the Grand hall, as the guests' eyes darted around the room, their gaze remaining unfocused, as they looked between Madam Ruth's current state and distress, to the young man who had suddenly and unexpectedly begun choking before he slumped.A collection of whispers and mutterings began to grow within the crowd, their voices increasing in volume and curiosity, they couldn't help but land their curious gaze on Adam, he had spoken things and they had come to pass in a matter of seconds, they were beginning to fear him. "Who exactly is this man?" someone murmured, the question hanging in the air like a fog."Yeah, how did he know? First, Madam Ruth, and now this?" another voice added, his voice laced with

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

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

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
