Jason said nothing in response to the words that the barber said, as he wondered why he was asking him such a question. “I am sorry, Sir. It’s just that we know almost all of our customers, and I can’t remember seeing your face here. Also, you look like you are way above this kind of place.” “Oh, I see.” “Yes sir.” The barber said with a smile on his face which Jason reciprocated, even though he didn’t want to, he thought the barber was going to become silent afterward, but he had no intention to. “So tell me, Sir. Have you been here before?” At first, Jason wanted to be silent, but in order not to appear rude, he sighed and decided to respond to the question. “Not quite, this is my first time here.” “That’s lovely, sir. I knew it, welcome to our salon!” “Yeah, thank you.” “I hope you will come back later after this, we will be happy to have you back. We have an ongoing discount for our loyal customers, and I would like you to be a part of it. It won’t last for too l
Slowly, Jason got up from the seat, and looked at his reflection in the mirror, unable to resistthe urge to smile in self-admiration. He turned to look at Yusuf, nodding in satisfaction."Thank you, Yusuf, you have done a wonderful job.""I am glad you like it, Sir." The barber said with a chuckle, holding onto his hair clipper andthe apron cape in his hands."How much is it!""Just a hundred and fifty dollars, Sir."As soon as he heard those words from Yusuf, Jason nodded with his smile intact, and then heput his hand into his pocket and brought out two dollar bills, handing them over to him."You can keep the change.""What? Thank you! Thank you, Sir!" Yusuf said loudly after he had gasped at Jason's kindgesture, but the young man only nodded, and said nothing in response to him."Please come back anytime you need to have a nice haircut, Sir. I will always be at yourservice.""I will keep that in mind, Yusuf. Have a nice day, and I wish you well with your aspirati
"Oh, that's terrible! They messed with the wrong family." Jason said, realizing that hehad been living devils for a long time."How did I not see this?" He thought to himself, sighing in a little surprise. He knew that thePalmers were hostile, but he had hoped that they had a little sympathy in them, thinking theyonly detested him because he was poor and unusually married to Isabella, but henever knew they could be that vile."I shouldn't have listened to Clark. " He thought to himself, grunting at the feeling inside him,but on second thought, he felt everything happened for a reason."I am sorry for everything they made you go through. That was horrible of them.""Thank You, Young Master. I am glad that I was able to secure a job with your family. Mr.Harrison offered me this job as soon as I applied through an old schoolmate. I am gratefulfor this job."Gradually, the bodyguard let go of the gloom on his face, and he started to smile, driving towardthe driveway t
Jason walked into the house, and Clara stood mouth agape with her husband looking at Jason while they struggled with the shocking encounter that they had witnessed. Their shock absorbers were not able to withstand the tension in their body. Who would have thought that the lowly son-in-law was ever going to stand up for himself? “Did you see that?” Clara whispered to the hearing of her husband, but he said nothing as he was struggling with missed feelings, unsure if he was to concentrate on his anger or deal with the astonishment inside his head. He sighed heavily and turned to face his wife who had been looking at him, and waiting for a response. “Don’t worry about him babe. Let’s just get the hell out of here, I will deal with him later.” Clara wasn’t convinced by the words she heard from her husband, plus she had expected him to say something else, something meaningful and threatening. She stood at the spot, watching as he walked to the Lamborghini and opened the door.
The baby was crying softly as soon as he woke up, realizing that there was no one around to attend to him. “Daddy is here! Don’t cry, now.” Jason said, as he picked up the toddler from the cradle, and carried him up with a smile on his face. Seeing his father, Henry let go of his tears, and chuckled in excitement, looking right into his eyes. “Don’t worry, son. Everything is going to be alright pretty soon. I just need to take care of a few things, and I will fix this. I promise.” The toddler cooed loudly as though he understood what his father had said, while his smile and chuckles remained intact. “You must be hungry, let’s get your teeth clean first,” Jason said to his son, and then he carried him to the bathroom and washed his mouth, coming out a few minutes later with the feeder still in his hand. “Here, have this .” He said to Henry, putting the nipple of the feeder into his mouth, but the toddler grabbed the feeder from him with both hands and turned to his right, h
Jason stood speechlessly, watching as Isabella hurriedly walked past him after waving to the baby who didn’t seem like he cared if she was leaving, knowing that his father was with him.As the sound of her heels clanking on the floor while she left, Jason struggled with everything in him to suppress the anger that he felt inside. Isabella shut the door behind her, after she had left the room, and went into her car, driving off in a hurry. It was so obvious that she wasn’t going to work. “How did I get myself involved in all of this?” Jason asked himself, but while he held onto the thought, his son began to cough again, causing him to gently lower him with both hands to see his face. “You look sick, I am sorry you had to go through all of this.” He whispered to his son who also began to sneeze a few seconds later, while the cough was consistent.Reacting to the agitation inside him, Jason pulled out his phone from his pocket, and dialed the bodyguard’s number, placing the phone
“Don’t use that tone on me, boy!” “But he needs to be taken to see a Doctor, are you not going to do that?” Fiona was silent to Jason’s words, as it appeared she wasn’t even sure of what to do, and this increased the level of Jason’s anger and frustration. “Miss Fiona?” Jason called out to the lady who jolted from her confused thoughts and looked at him, making sure that the baby was balanced on her right shoulder. “Well, we better get going, now!” “Right, I am going, but I don’t think you should come with me, you won’t be needed there.” “What? Why would you even say that? He is my son!” “And he is my Grandson! Not like you are a capable man. I believe I am doing you a favor, you should be grateful for it and not acting like a chicken.” Fiona gave Jason a scowling look, but he was standing firmly on his unshaken resolve, making sure that there was no way he was going to let her take his son to the hospital alone. Fiona turned to her right and walked down the stairs w
“What is this?” Fiona asked as though she didn't know what a car looked like, staring at the black Porsche in front of her, while she held onto the baby. “He will take us to the hospital, we must hurry now,” Jason said amidst the anxiousness in him regarding his son’s health, but Fiona didn't seem like she was ready to budge. “Whose car is this?” Charmed by the beauty of the black sleek car, Fiona made inquisitive stares, as her thoughts assured her that there was no way the car belonged to Jason. “It’s for a friend.” “What friend? I don't know any other friend of yours, apart from Clark.” “Well, like you said, you don't know this friend.” Fiona scoffed, and then she took a careful look at the car, while Jason waited anxiously for her to move. “Please, hurry! We need to get to the hospital as soon as we can.” “Don’t try to rush me, for all I know, this car could be stolen, or probably belong to someone dangerous, and I don’t want to be involved with such.” “I assur
