The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Take a Break
Jason stayed with his Grandfather for a few minutes until he remembered that he was supposed to have a meeting with Kelvin who had called him earlier. “Grandpa? I really have to go now, I have an appointment and it’s really important.” Jason said to his Grandfather who gave him an inquisitive stare. “You should be more interested in making Brenda your girlfriend at least before making her your wife. You should be thinking of going on another date with her.” Lord Walker teased, looking at Jason with a smile on his face. “You really don’t want to give up, old man.” “Oh no. I don’t plan to give up anytime soon. What I want you to do is settle down as soon as possible, and I will be out of your case.” Lord Walker lifted both hands and then he looked at Harry for support, but the Butler wasn’t sure of what to say. “I think you should talk to him, Harry. He probably thinks he is still a teenager. When I was your age, I was already married.” “Good Lord! Grandpa? Are you not going
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Syndicate
Meanwhile, Jason texted an address to Kelvin a few minutes after he had driven out of the hospital premises, and then he drove to the address himself with so much anticipation written all over his face. The address he sent was an abandoned warehouse, and as soon as he arrived, he scoured the entire vicinity to be sure he was alone just before he turned off the engine of the vehicle, and sighed softly. In less than thirty minutes, he heard a tap on the window close to him, and he turned to see that Kelvin had arrived. Instantly, he unlocked the car to let him in, and Kelvin got in at once, carrying his brown backpack which he dropped on his lap as soon as he shut the door. “Good day to you, Young Master.” “Thank you, Kelvin. Thank you for coming on such short notice.” “Not a problem at all,” Kelvin responded with a smile that appeared a few seconds after he greeted Jason who nodded with a smile as well. “I hope you have some good news for me, Kelvin,” Jason asked with a l

Kelvin was silent for a few seconds while he thought about the question Jason asked him. It became obvious afterward that he wasn’t sure of the right response to give to him, and Jason sighed while he gave up any form of expectation to get any substantial response from him. “I don’t think I got anything related to that from my findings, Young Master. Dalton did most of his business with foreign clients, and even though his establishment was located in this city, it was only open to those foreigners who flew in from several countries all over the world to see him. I don’t think he had any affiliation with your family, Young Master.” Jason sighed again when Kelvin was done talking, and after he had stared at the screen of the laptop for a few seconds, he cleared his throat while the thoughts that he had in his mind continued to linger. “How does this relate to my Grandfather? Why would he want to kill him if they didn't ave anything to do with each other?” Jason whispered only to
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Potentially unsafe
Jason woke up in less than three hours just as soon as the alarm he had set went off. He pushed himself up from the bed and went into the bathroom to have a bath. It was already past the twentieth hour, and there were a lot of thoughts still running through his mind while the water from the shower streamed down his body. He got out as soon as he was done and put on a fresh pair of black suits, brown shoes, a Rolex watch, and a silver necklace to match. He applied to one of the colognes in his collection, and after he had looked at his reflection in the mirror in front of him for a long time, he nodded in satisfaction, and then he walked to the cabinet beside the bed where he grabbed his phone and the card given to him by Larry Bardolf when he invited him to his club after the auction. Jason was determined to find out the kind of involvement Larry had with his father, and when he heard that he had an affiliation with the man who almost killed his Grandfather, his strong will wa
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Club Luna
It took them close to an hour to get to their destination, and as soon as James drove the car into the vicinity of the tall building, he parked a few meters in front of it while the other guard quickly got down from the car and opened the back door for Jason. “Thank you…” Jason stepped out of the car while the guard shut the door, and walked beside Jason toward the entrance of the club which boomed with deafening sounds of disco music that was accompanied by disco lights of several colors that emitted from every little opening in the building. Club Luna was the biggest club in Granada Hills and even beyond. It was a place where highly profiled men came to spend money and to see beautiful ladies who didn't mind showcasing several parts of their bodies just for the amount of money they were going to earn at the end of each party that usually listed all through the night. Apart from the casino and the pool that were in some parts of the building, there was also a VIP room that no o
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Striking Resemblance
Larry observed the men for a while, and he could see they were not so comfortable with the presence of the strange younger man even though he appeared to be very rich. “Calm down, guys. I know what you all are thinking, but I assure you, he can be trusted.” He said with an assuring smile on his face, but some of the men found his words really hard to believe. “Mr. Jones and I had a great time at one of the auctions I attended this month, the last one actually. He won me in a bidding, or should I say I let him win me? He was very persistent, and I really liked that style.” Larry continued while he went to a couch close to Jason and sat down without taking away the smile on his face. “You have absolutely nothing to be worried about, he is one of us, do not look at his young age. I can assure you that he is one of us.” Larry concluded, looking at the other six men one after the other. Some of them nodded in agreement, while the rest who were still not convinced gave Jason suspici

Jason leaned forward almost immediately, and so did the ladies seated at both sides who had their hands all over him. “Mr. Jones? Is everything alright?” The man asked again without taking his eyes away from Jason who cleared his throat before giving him a response. “Yeah! Absolutely, everything is alright!” He responded with a firm tone even though he avoided the man’s eyes afterward. “Maybe he has eyes for that fine young lady with you!” One of the men standing close by said with a smirk, and almost everyone laughed at his words excluding Jason who felt a bit embarrassed. “I don’t mind exchanging her with one of those ladies seated close to you. I love that one with the red lingerie, she is going to really mourn loudly!” “Oh, come on, Mr. Hernandez! You really cannot take your eyes off anything pretty! You should be focused on the beautiful lady in front of you!” Larry said to the man whom Jason had been looking at, but he scoffed at him and pushed the lady rocking him awa
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Man for the Job
Jason turned to look at Philip the moment he saw that Larry was out of sight, and he could see that the middle-aged man seated on the table in front of him was intoxicated even though he tried not to be in full control of himself. “Mr. Hernandez?” “Yes! Yes!” Philip answered at once, looking at Jason who leaned forward to him with a smile on his face. “I think I am interested in joining you guys,” Jason announced with a smile of certainty on his face, hoping that his expression was convincing enough. “Really? Are you sure about this?” “Yes! I am certain of it!” “But you didn’t even give it a thought…” “I don’t think that would be necessary, Mr. Hernandez. Who needs to give such an opportunity a second thought? Especially when it is being handed on a platter, and can even be taken away at any moment.” “You are right! I like you, you know the right things to do!” Philip chuckled excitedly while struggling to keep his eyes open as they continued to close under the influen
