The Palmers
The voices of family members, friends and well wishers who had come to pay their condolence to the Palmers could be heard echoing from the main hall of the massive Palmer mansion; exquisite chandeliers hung from several angles of the roof shining brightly, reflecting sparkling glitters on the wine glasses that most of the elite guests in the hall had in their hands. All in the hall were on black outfits.Lord Richard Palmer one of the wealthiest men in Granada Hills and the founder of Palmer Pharmaceuticals had just been buried. He died after a brief illness at 85.“So sorry for your loss Lady Palmer.”“Oh thank you so much.” Mrs. Alice Palmer responded to the man in stylish black suit and a black moccasin shoe to match.“Accept my deepest condolences Lady Palmer.” Said a lady putting on a black felt hat. She handed her a bouquet of roses, Mrs. Palmer took the roses with a smile.“Where the hell is that leech of a son-in-law?” Scouring through the hall, her eyes glaring with high c

The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Seizure
Brenda was silent for a while, but Jason was patient enough to wait for a response to his question. Firstly, she grabbed Henry from Jason and made sure he was sitting comfortably on her legs. She took in a deep breath which she let out slowly before she turned to look at Jason. “I am listening, Brenda. What were you guys discussing back there?”“Nothing really. Just girls’ talk.” “Okay?” Jason featured with both hands, indicating that he wanted to hear more details about their discussion. “I thought you said you were not so much interested in her, Jay. Why bothering to ask what we were discussing?”“Me? When did I say that?”“Well, you implied it.” Brenda shrugged, looking at Jason with a smirk on her face. “Just tell me what you guys were talking about back there, Brenda. She could have said something that needs to be verified by me. No other person knows her like I do.” Jason insisted. “Okay, fine.” Brenda sighed. “I was just worried about the way she looked, that’s

The sight of his ex-wife made Jason sigh, his previous countenance gave way for a frown that appeared as he stared at Isabella who managed to push the two guards aside because they let her do so. But they went after her and grabbed her at once, restraining her efforts to get close to Jason or her son. “Jason! Tell them to let me go! Let me go! Let me go!” Isabella continued to struggle with the guards, but she eventually got tired, panting in exhaustion while Jason and Brenda watched her with a little surprised written all over their faces. Henry recognized his biological mother, but it didn’t look like he was really concerned or excited to see her. He just stared at her as though he was trying to recall where he met her. “Tell them to let me go, Jason! Please.” Isabella pleaded, but Jason wasn’t really interested in the words that she uttered. What made him curious was the fact that she looked very unkempt and malnourished. It had been a few weeks since he last saw her, and h

Jason slept like a baby throughout the night. Brenda was able to get him to sleep after making him a hot cup of black coffee which was enough to calm him down, taking his mind temporarily away from everything that was going on. “Good morning.” He said with a whisper as soon as he opened his eyes to see Brenda standing next to him as though she had been keeping watch over him. “I don’t need to ask if you slept well. You were sleeping peacefully, I glad you had enough rest.” Brenda said while she continued watching Jason who stretched his arms and grunted while he sat up from the bed.“I feel so relaxed, Babe. I am glad I have you by my side at a time like this. Thank you.” Jason said, a bright smile face “Stop it.” Brenda chuckled softly, and then she took two steps closer to him before placing both hands on his shoulders. “You don't need to thank me, okay? I will gladly do anything it takes to make sure that you are okay.” Jason nodded instantly, his smile intact while he

The news of the destruction of Baron’s empire by fire was all over the news. Everyone in Granada Hills and beyond was talking about it, but no one was able to know how it happened. Worst still, the old man who terrorized some parts of the city was nowhere to be found, and that made some people breathe some fresh air. Baron was gone, and so were their troubles. No one was going to be ever afraid of him taking their children ever again in exchange for the amount they owed him. Baron was always there to lend money to the poor whenever they were in need, but it usually came with some deadly conditions that they didn't know about. Baron always knew that some of those he lent money to were not going to be able to pay back as when it was time to do so. He took advantage of their inability to pay, and made their lives very miserable. Unfortunately, the government did nothing about it even though their was no legal backing for the old villain to treat people unfairly when they were una

For almost a minute, Jason struggled with his rage, but something stopped him from pulling the trigger. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get himself to kill the old man who saw his life flashing before his eyes. Everyone was silently looking at the scene, wondering what was going to happen. They were almost certain that Jason was going to kill Baron. Grunting, Jason lowered the gun, still glaring at Baron who covered his face with both hands while he awaited his death. “You are not worth the stress, Baron,” Jason said calmly, and then he tossed the gun to the ground to the shock of everyone around. “I think I will make you suffer a more intense fate, Baron. You will watch everything you have labored for go down the drain.” Jason took in a deep breath and then exhaled slowly before he turned and gestured to Rogers who hurried to him at once. “I want you to go into this place with some men and bring our everyone inside, I am sure that he has a lot of children in there

Even though James knew that Jason was very angry at that moment, he never thought that he was going to be willing to retaliate against Baron for what he did to Lord walker. However, he had seen a side of Jason which seemed to be hidden from them for a long time. He never knew he had such powerful reflexes but was convinced that there was more to him after how he handled the Mafia Lord. “Are you sure about this, Young Master? I am sorry, but waging a war against Baron could draw a lot of attention. I am not sure if we need that kind of attention in this city at the moment.” “I don’t care, James! Make the call. Gather all the men we gave and tell them to meet me here at once, no one should be missing! Do it now!” Jason ordered, causing James to bow before he pulled out his phone and made the call. Jason called Rogers as well, and he appeared with some other man before the men James called were able to come to the hospital vicinity. There were over twenty cars all over the plac

Turning to look at Brenda, Jason walked toward her with an inquisitive expression on his face. Her countenance made him a bit worried as he wasn’t really sure of the reason why she looked like that. “Babe? What’s going on?” He asked but Brenda remained silent.“How is Grandpa? Is he okay?”Brenda remained silent, creating more suspense in the air. Jason’s heart had already started pounding frantically against his heartbeat while he stared at Brenda, waiting to hear what she had come to tell him. “You are making me scared, babe. What’s going on?” “I am sorry, Jay. I have bad news.” Brenda finally said, looking very sad and exhausted at the same time. Her words hit Jason really hard, sending great fear into his nerves. “Is he…?” He couldn’t complete the words he had in mind, wary of the fact that that was one of his greatest fears. Losing the old man was going to come as a great shock and he wasn’t sure he was ready for it. The fact that Brenda said nothing made it more diff

Jason knew that the young man was going to be very disappointed if he told him the exact truth about his father’s location. He could probably not understand even if he tried to explain to him, so he chose to tell him something else. “Xavier?” He glared his throat twice before he continued, unaware that Harry was back to the room with a smile of relief on his face. “It’s not that simple, okay? I can’t really take you to see your father at the moment because of everything that has happened. But I promise to take you to see him as soon as I have this sorted out.” Xavier bent his face in disappointment. That wasn’t the kind of response he had anticipated to hear, but it didn’t look like he had any other choice but to be patient until it was time to see his father. He only wished that things weren’t the way they were, especially with Lord Walker’s life at stake. “That’s a promise, Xavier. I will take you to see your father as soon as I have all of this sorted out, okay?” Jason said

Shirley who heard the mention of his son’s name turned instantly, her eyes widened in excitement as soon as she saw her son Xavier. A loud but faint gasp left her at once. “Xavier? Is that you?” She asked with a shaky voice, struggling to push herself up, ignoring the pain she felt in her body. “Take it easy.” Harry quickly rushed to help her, but it didn’t look like she was worried about herself at that moment. All that mattered was the fact that Xavier was back to her alive and healthy. The young man was only able to stand close to the door after he managed to walk into the ward, unsure of how to face his mother who was confused by his behavior. “Why is he still standing there?” She asked Harry who was silent, causing her to look at Jason almost immediately. But she didn’t get any response from either of them. “Xavier? Come to your mother. Come on!” Shirley reached out to him, but he was still so reluctant until Jason urged him to go to her. “Go ahead, Xavier. It’s okay.
