The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Resume
Jason walked directly to the dining hall without turning, and just as he had hoped, breakfast was ready. He sat on the table, ready to get rid of the hunger that had been making his stomach rumble for a while. “What’s for breakfast?” He turned to look at the chef who was standing a short distance beside him with a smile on her face. “Scrambled eggs and oatmeal, Sir.” She said with a low tone but still held onto her smile as she stared at Jason with both of her hands clasped in front of her. “Is everything alright?” Jason asked calmly as soon as he realized that she had been staring at him for a while without any plans to withdraw her eyes from him. “No, Sir. There is no problem at all.” She bent her face to the ground, but that didn’t stop her from smiling. “Are you sure? You were staring for so long. Is anything wrong with my outfit?” Jason looked at his shirt to be sure that he wasn’t looking shabby, and he could see that his outfit was neat and smooth. “Nothing is wrong

“Alright, Harry. Thank you for this.“ Jason lifted the document toward Harry who nodded with signs of uncertainty written all over his face. “I will be going now, Harry. And by the way, Rose is still here with us, please make sure she is comfortable.” “Will do.” “Thank you, Harry,” Jason said with a satisfied smile, and then he started walking toward the car while James looked at him for a while, wondering why he was dressed so simply if he was going to work. “Do you want me to come with you, Young Master? That would ensure a smooth transmission. That way, no one would really have to disrespect you.” Harry couldn’t stop himself from saying those words, as his concern continued to linger. “That’'s going to ruin everything, Harry. Remember that the plan is to work there without any special attention, including the fact that no one should treat me based on any relationship with you or any member of my family.”“Right..” Harry sighed heavily, and then he looked at Jason who got
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Discharged
“Why? Is there any problem?” Brenda asked, looking at Jason who seemed a bit worried. “It’s an emergency, okay? I will explain everything to you later. But I need him to leave this place immediately. The nurses insisted that Doctor Melvin must be here before he is discharged. Is it possible for you to discharge him? I mean, this is your father’s hospital, and I think they trust you.” Brenda looked into Jason’s eyes, and she could see the desperation buried deep inside them, while she wondered what was really going on with him. “Brenda?”“Uhm? Yes, yes, I can get him discharged.” “Perfect! Thank you so much. I promise I am going to explain everything to you as soon as all of this is settled.” “Yes, you should. Because you are really acting strange.” Brenda said calmly, while she continued to look at Jason from his face to some other parts of his body just to be sure that there was nothing wrong with him. “Okay. I just need to run some checks on him, and then I can write a

Jason continued looking at the Doctor together with the trolley until they were almost out of sight. Suddenly, he remembered that he had an appointment, and then he gasped. “Oh, no! I am late.” He looked at the time on his wristwatch, and then he hurriedly returned back to the car. He got into the backseat, and then he rested his back on the backseat while James looked at him through the rearview mirror. “Let’s go, Harry. I am late!” “Okay, Young Master.” James nodded, and then he turned on the ignition of the car and drove onto the road, increasing the speed of the car with every passing second once he was certain that there was no car coming from behind the car. Jason adjusted his shirt and made sure that his hair was okay by looking at his reflection in the rearview mirror even though he couldn't get a clear view of himself. After about twenty minutes, they were able to get to their destination and James parked the car in the parking area in front of the main build
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Janitor
Jason turned around slowly, and then he moved to the seat and sat down slowly with his eyes scouring the entire place. He remained seated and occasionally looked at the secretary who was so busy with her computer that she barely lifted her eyes from the keyboard she was typing with. A few minutes later, the door to the Manager's office opened slowly, causing Jason to lift his head as soon as he heard the sound of the door opening, followed by two male voices.“Great, when I thought today was going to go smoothly,” Jason grunted as soon as he recognized the man who was walking out of the office with the Manager. They had smiles plastered on their faces, but the Manager seemed like he was smiling out of courtesy, while the middle-aged man beside him seemed a bit more excited. “Alright, Mr. Palmer. I have heard everything you have said, and I will definitely give it a thought. But I need you to remember that I don’t make the final shots.” The Manager said to Morgan after they sh

“Oh, no,” Jason whispered to himself as soon as he turned around to see James holding the Resume Harry handed over to him. He didn’t even realize that he had left it in the car. He stared at James who remained still while handing out the documents to him with both hands. It took him a few seconds to get a grip on himself, and as soon as he did, he quickly grabbed the papers from James and winked at him. “Thank you, Sir. I didn’t even realize that I had forgotten these. I am super grateful.” Jason said to James who didn’t understand what was going on, especially with the fact that Jason winked at him. That was strange. Jason was hopeful that no one really heard when James referred to him as Young Master, but it was already late. Morgan was forced to stop at once, and then he turned around to look at James who turned to look at him slowly just before he forcefully looked away. “This face, it looks really familiar. I think I have seen you somewhere.” Morgan said, but James kept

Jason followed the Manager almost immediately into the office, and shut the door behind him, with the Resume still tightly gripped in his right hand. “Please, have a seat.” The Manager pointed to one of the seats in front of his deal, while he sat down on his seat behind the desk.“Thank you, Sir.” Jason proceeded to sit down on the seat on the right. “Please, call me Mr. Coleman. Or maybe you can call me Declan. All of that Sir makes me feel like I am a stranger to the people I am working with, and if we are going to be working together, I would really want us to start off on a smooth ground.” Jason looked at the nameplate, and he was able to confirm that the name of the Manager was really Declan Coleman. “Mr. Caruso? Are you there?” “Yes, yes, Sir,” Jason said at once, taking his eyes off the nameplate, and lifting his face to look at the Manager who nodded in satisfaction. “Yes. So, as I was saying. Please, call me Mr. Coleman, or Declan. Any of them would be fine.”
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Assistant Manager
“Thank you so much, Mr. Coleman. I promise that you won’t regret this.” Jason grabbed the hand of the Manager who offered him a handshake with a smile on his face. “I am sure that I won’t regret this, Mr. Caruso. And I hope that you find whatever it is that you are looking for.” Declan said, and then he withdrew his hand from the handshake and adjusted his jacket almost immediately. “However…” He continued and leaned forward to take a look at the documents in front of him on the table, while Jason wondered what he was about to say. “I don’t think I would want you to work here as a Janitor for so long. I think I might have a position where you can be more useful. Since you really want to work here with us, I will speak to the Human Resources Manager, I am sure she will look for something more lucrative for you to do. How is that?” Jason looked at Declan who had a smile on his face, while he waited eagerly to hear what Jason was going to say. “That would be really nice, Mr. Co
