The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Unperturbed
Jason shut the door behind him the moment he left the room, and then he looked around the hallway to see if anyone was around, but it was empty. “Hello?” He said to the person at the other end of the line, his voice was anticipatory. “Hello, Young Master. How are you doing?” “I am fine, Kelvin. Do you have anything for me?” “Yes, Young Master. I think we should meet, I don’t know if you are free at the moment.” Jason groaned almost immediately, thinking of the best thing to do. There were a lot of things he wanted to do, and he didn’t know how he was going to be able to meet up with all of them. He took in a deep breath, and then he exhaled slowly before he responded to Kelvin who was very patient to hear what he was going to say. “I am not so free now, Kelvin. I don’t know…” “This is very important, Young Master. I really think you should see this. It’s about the identity of the man you asked me to find. I think I have something.” “Really?” “Yes, Young Master. You
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Lucky Man
When he was sure that he had Brenda’s attention, Jason sighed softly before he continued while the Doctor paid keen attention, hoping that whatever he was going to say to her was going to be relieving. “I know that you are worried about all the things you mentioned, but you seem to be forgetting something…” “What is that?” Brenda asked almost immediately when she saw that Jason had paused for a while. “You have forgotten that you are dealing with the Walkers, Brenda. Do you think anyone would be able to go against us in this country not to talk of the entire city? We are the most powerful people, and Silas Brooks is under our leadership. Without my family’s support, his business will crumble. He is nothing without us.” “Really?” “Yes, Brenda. You see, we are major shareholders in his business, he owes us. I am just sorry that we gave him and his son the opportunity to do that to you and get away with it. I am sure he wouldn’t have dared it, or probably gotten away with it if
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Did you ever love her?
Brenda adjusted herself almost immediately, and when she was certain that she was comfortable on the couch, she cleared her throat before she spoke with a whisper. “You do?” She asked, and Jason nodded with a smile on his face.“Yes, Brenda.” Jason resounded after a few seconds, discarding the silence that was accompanied by a deep stare from Brenda who chuckled afterward. “That’s nice, that’s really good to hear.” She said with a whisper, and then she bent her face to the ground, avoiding the eyes of Jason who looked at her with excitement. “Brenda?” Jason lifted her face gently and looked her in the eyes while she blinked with her mouth agape without even realizing it. “I know that this might be leading to something really beautiful, but I want us to take it one step at a time. You know that I just got out of a rough marriage with my ex-wife, and I also have a son whom I wouldn't want to impose on you. Being a mother can be really tough…” “I know, I understand,” Brenda sa

Brenda returned a few seconds later with her shoes and purse in her hands while Jason leaned forward from the chair, and looked at her. “Are you set?” He asked, looking at her clothes that looked a bit shabby with her top stained with a few drops of wine. Seeing that Jason was staring at her outfit, Brenda looked at herself, and that was when she realized that she was not looking entirely presentable at that moment. “I think I need a change of clothes.” She grunted in annoyance, and then she went through the ideas that came to her but none of them looked viable except the one she was trying to avoid. She looked at Jason with a very pitiable countenance and demanded politely, hoping that she was going to get a positive response from him. “Could you please take me home? I really need to change this outfit, and I don’t wanna be late for my appointment. My Patient is a lady who is desperate to have a child, and I don’t want to make her feel bad by not showing up at the hospital
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Humble Abode
Jason nodded in response, and then he drove through the driveway that led to the house before he parked in front of it, and turned off the engine. “We are here.” He turned to look at Brenda who nodded almost immediately. “Yes, thank you. I will just hurry inside and change. I hope you don’t mind waiting for me.” “That’s okay.” Jason nodded with a smile and Brenda opened the door before she alighted from the car. “On a second thought…” She stopped herself from shutting the door almost immediately, turning to look at Jason who was still staring at her. “Why don’t you come inside and I can make you a cup of coffee? You are already here, you might as well come in.” “Are you sure? I wouldn’t want you to be late for your appointment.” Jason said calmly even though he liked the idea of going into her house. “It's fine, I am sure that I can spare a few minutes. Come on, I insist…” Brenda gestured to him with an anticipatory smile on her face, and then she waited patiently for hi

Brenda walked closer to Jason, and then she stood a few inches away from him with her purse in both hands. “Are you set?” “Yeah, I will take care of that later. There is no time.” Brenda looked at the cup and saucer on the stool briefly before she turned to look at Jason who nodded at once. “Let’s go then.” Jason led the way, and Brenda followed almost immediately while she brought out her key from her purse, and locked the door as soon as she was out of the house. Jason unlocked the door to the car and opened the front seat for her, gesturing to her to get in with a bright smile that expressed his admiration for both her beauty and her apparel. “Thank you.” Brenda chuckled while she got into the car, and lifted the tail of her gown before Jason shut the door and went into the car from the other side. He turned on the ignition of the car at once and drove straight to the hospital while Brenda pulled out her phone from her purse, and started to operate it. “What? That wa
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Consent
Jason locked the car as soon as he got out, and then he went into the hospital with Brenda walking several meters ahead of him. Just like Jason, the nurses marveled the moment they saw Brenda walking toward her office, and even some of the people seated by the corner of the Reception couldn’t stop staring. “You look amazing, Doctor Brenda.” Said one of the nurses, causing Brenda to chuckle softly before she responded with a smile on her face. “Thank you so much, nurse Catherine.” She said as soon as she slowed down, and then she continued with her previous pace, waving at some of the people seated by the corner of the Reception. The moment Jason walked into the hospital and the nurses on duty saw him, they began to whisper words to themselves, giggling at the things they said to each other. Jason realized that they were talking about him from the way they stole glances at him, but he ignored them and continued walking toward his Grandfather’s ward. He got in eventually, a
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
