The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Thirty Working days
Jason looked at the luxurious car parked outside the hotel through the glass window at the corner, he wasn’t really sure if it was a good idea for him to go back to the Palmer residence with it, but on a second thought, an idea came to him. “Very well Mr Gary, it was really nice being here.” “No problem young master. It was a pleasure hosting you.” Gary said to Jason, then he escorted him outside the hotel to the spot where the car was parked. Jason was glad that there were just very few people around while he stepped out, the very thought of being seen by anyone who could disclose his identity bothered him as he scoured the entire environment carefully while he walked. The Chauffeur opened the door to the white Porsche for Jason before he got in with Gary standing right at the corner and waiting patiently. The Chauffeur soon after got into the driver’s seat and drove off as the sleek car reflected the resplendence of the early morning sunlight. The ride from the hotel tow
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Accused!
“What? I didn’t steal them!” Jason said trying so hard not to overreact to the words that came out of Jacob’s mouth. His fists were clutched tightly as his breathing began to increase gradually. “Oh what are you trying to do? Hit me as well? I can see that you have added assault to your resume.” Jacob glared at Jason looking ay his tightened fists. Just then, Isabella appeared from the stairs carrying their son who was sound asleep on his mother’s bosom. “What is going on here?” She asked the moment she saw Jason and her cousins engaged in a heated argument. “Well good thing you are here Bella. Your ex husband here stole some new pair of cloths and a Hublot watch. There is no way he could have bought them, I am sure of that.” “Is this true?” Isabella said to Jason following what Jacob said to her. “Of course not! Why would I steal?” Jason returned immediately still trying to hold himself from throwing a punch at Jacob who stood just few inches away from him. “How e

“Oh yes! That’s the best thing to do.” Isabella said excitedly following Jason’s exclamation she really was loving where everything was leading to. “I can’t believe you right now Isabella! I can’t believe you would agree to have the father of you son arrested.” “Well you should have thought about that when you made me look like a fool at the courthouse. You bloody fool!” Isabella fired back at Jason, then she rolled her eyes at him and hissed for the second time. Jason was no longer comfortable with the tension that was gradually rising in the room, he tried all possible means to plead with them but all his efforts were futile. “I will do anything, don’t just arrest me I beg you. I didn’t steal these items I promise you.” “Quiet! We are done listening to you spew those rubbish from your gutter mouth.” Fiona said to Jason almost spiting into his eyes. “You all are making a very terrible mistake that would backfire and I promise you, you will regret this. One after the other
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Arrested!
“That was really fast.” Isabella said as the entire eyes in the room including Jason’s turned towards the glass windows and saw the two police cars and the black jeep speeding into the compound. One would have thought that a politician was being escorted with the way they drove into the compound. The two white Police cars blaring their sirens parked right in front of the house and four fully armed policemen stepped out from the two cars. Three of the policemen made their way towards the house pointing their guns as they walked briskly while the fourth man went towards the black jeep with tilted glasses and opened the left door of the back seat. A middle aged man putting on a grey suit and black loafers to match stepped out of the car gradually, then he adjusted his collar and tie while the police man in front of him saluted him with a perfect agility. “That’s Vin Prescott Maya’s father.” Chloe announced the moment she saw the middle aged man alight from the car. She really
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. To the Station
Mr Vin got into the black jeep and the policeman who opened the door for him, closed it behind him and entered one of the white cars parked in front. Gradually, the three cars reversed almost at once and left the Palmer residence. Jason remained calm while in the car with the two policemen seated beside him with their guns fitted tightly in their hands. He didn’t want to say a word but only thought about the best way to handle the situation. “I bet you can’t speak now yeah? You bloody thief.” “He dared to lay his filthy hands on the Chief’s daughter. He is in for a lot of trouble.” The policeman by Jason’s right said right after his partner has spoken and they giggled in anticipation to whatever they felt was going to happen to Jason. “Why are you so quiet huh? Did cat cut your tongue?” Asked the policeman by Jason’s right hand and seeing that Jason chose not to say any word, he tapped his shoulder but still he was not responsive. “Don’t worry about the criminal Will, I am
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. No Record
There was a sudden silence in the ambiance as all the eyes in the room except Jason’s looked into the screen of the white laptop. “There is nothing here. It’s Empty Chief.” Smith said with a low and disappointed voice as he turned to Mr Vin and then faced Will. “Nonsense! That’s not possible! Move!” Mr Vin said, then he quickly went towards the laptop and pushed Smith away gently. “What’s his bloody name?” He questioned and raised his fingers to type into the keyboard for the laptop. “Jason Caruso Sir.” “Jason…Caru-so.” Mr Vin said as he typed in the names of Jason, then he clicked on the search icon and waited impatiently with his eyes glued to the screen. While all these were going on, Jason kept on smiling and shaking his head in a scornful manner as he looked at the three men in the room with him one after the other. “What? That’s not possible. You can’t tell me that this bloody thief and assaulter has no criminal record. Not even one!” Mr Vin yelled, then he turned
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Stolen Card
“Oh really? What do you take us for? Some fools or what?” Mr Vin said with a smirk but Jason didn’t respond to him. He only kept on his smile and stood at a spot. “There is no way this belongs to you. You are some wretched leech who found himself lucky enough to lure yourself into the bed of a girl from a rich home.” Mr Vin sniggered but as much as his words slightly got to Jason he chose not to say any words in response. “This is all I need to lock you up. By the time we get the owner of the card to confirm that his card is missing and get him to testify against you, I promise that your life would be over.” Mr Vin said again with a broad smile extending across his face towards his jawline. The two policemen standing at different corners nodded with similar smiles following what he said. The Chief of police looked at the card thoroughly, turning it over and over again to get the details.“Hmm. This is a unique card. I bet it belongs to a very rich and powerful person, maybe a p

“That was really fast. But I guess the earlier the better yeah.” Mr Vin said as soon as Smith spoke those words in excitement. “You are definitely going down young man. You messed up with the wrong family.” Smith said to Jason with so much satisfaction filled in the snigger that followed suite. “There is a storm coming, but you don’t see it.” Jason said, then he Scoffed and nodded his head twice in satisfaction. “I really commend your bravery even in the midst of impending danger. Bravo! But I hope it saves you from whatever they decide to do with you.” Mr Vin said to Jason, then he looked towards the door waiting with so much eagerness for Harry to walk into the room. “What is going on here?” Harry shouted as soon as he had stormed into the building. “Good thing you are here Sir. We caught this criminal with the card belonging to the Walkers. We hope he hasn’t withdrawn any money from the account.” “Yes. Just say the word and we will deal with him appropriately.” Will add

The Viral News
The Butler remained silent for over ten seconds, but the stillness made Jason’s anxiety linger while he approached him with a curious expression on his face. “Harry? Is my Grandfather okay? Where is Henry?”“Lord Walker is fine. Nothing has happened to Ed to your son.” “Okay? So why the long face? What’s going on?” Jason was relieved that his greatest fear was not the reason for the Butler’s worrisome look, but he still needed to know what was happening. “We might have a little problem, Young Master.” “Problem? Talk to me, Harry! You are not saying anything!” Jason became a little bit impatient, and while he waited for a response, he went through his mind at once, thinking if anything that may have been the reason for yeh words from the middle-aged man. “Your parents, Young Master. They are on the news.” Harry said calmly, but his words made Jason confused while he looked at him with a bemused expression. “What the hell are you talking about, Harry? My parents are dead, y

Desperate Plea
The words from Jason hit Julius like a thunderbolt, and he was forced to keep quiet even though he never intended to. For a few seconds the middle-aged man remained calm, eyes on Jason who was waiting to be certain that he wasn’t going to say any other thing. “Good…” Jason sighed softly, and then he cleared his throat before he continued with a smirk on his face. “Now that I have your attention, I think it would be nice for us to get straight to the reason why I am here.” He paused for a few seconds just to be sure that Julius was paying attention, and continued when he was satisfied with the look on his face. “It’s very obvious that you deserve to be locked up forever, and the key thrown into the ocean, but unfortunately, you are still family. Now, I wonder what I am going to do with you, Julius. Trust me, I want to grab your neck with both hands and strangle you, but Grandpa…” Jason paused suddenly, and a heavy sigh left him. “Did the old man send you? Is he unable to hand

Confinement
There were guards standing in front of the gigantic metal gate, heavily armed and ready to shoot any intruder at sight. Their eyes were everywhere, on the lookout as they stood at various corners in front of the gate. The sight of Jason’s car approaching made them readjust immediately, but they were eased as soon as they recognized him from afar as he wheeled slowly, and stopped right in front of the gate. “Young Master.” One of the guards who came forward bowed gently while Jason nodded in response. “Let me in.” “At once!” The guard turned instantly, and signaled to his partner who grabbed a walkie-talkie with which he communicated with someone from the inside of the vicinity of the building. The gates opened automatically as soon as the button to unlock it was pressed, and Jason drove in at once, looking around through the windows beside him. It was his first time in the military training camp, and even though he asked Harry to give him the address to the place, he

Special Invite
Standing in front of his room the next morning, Jason waited patiently, glad in a grey suit while he looked around the hallway as though he was expecting to see someone. His eyes eventually stopped at his Grandfather’s door while so many thoughts of contemplation ran through his mind. “I don’t think he will be happy if he finds out that I want to go there without him.” He whispered only to his hearing, and then he sighed softly before he was distracted by the sound of footsteps approaching from a distance in front of him. The Butler appeared after a few seconds and Jason cleared his throat while he signaled to him to walk toward him the moment he noticed he was walking toward Lord Walker’s room. “Good morning, Young Master. I didn’t realize that you were standing there.” Harry said as soon as he stopped in front of Jason who sighed at once. “Morning, Harry. How are the girls?”“They are fine, Young Master. Rose refused to leave her sister’s side, she’s been there since yest

No more Rival
Lord Walker silently looked at Jason for almost a minute, a pleasant smile plastered app over his face. He leaned forward, and cleared his throat while Jason adjusted himself at once, thinking he was ready to break the silence, but he was wrong. “Okay, Grandpa. You have been staring at me since I sat down. Don’t you have plans to say anything?” Jason broke the silence the moment he felt it had lingered for so long, and the old man chuckled before giving him a response. “I never thought I would be so lucky, Jack. I am so lucky to have you as my Grandson. Your parents would be so proud of you wherever they are. You have single-handedly destroyed all the enemies of this family, and there is no rival left.” Lord Walker clapped his hands gently without taking his eyes away from Jason who shook his head at once, but was unable to get rid of the smile on his face. “I didn’t do it alone, Grandpa. Harry was there to help…” “Of course! But you are the brain behind everything, Jack. Yo

The Man of the Moment
Jason watched the two sisters as they wrapped their arms around each other, glad to have reunited after such a long time. A bright smile appeared on his face, and he began to wish that he had a sibling. The other girls who were awake and close to Nadia’s bed continued watching with keen interest, and at that moment, they were more assured that they were in safe hands since Jason had brought Rose to see her sister, and the doubt they had about their safety began to vanish instantly. Rose whispered some words into her sister’s ear, and even without hearing a word of what she was telling her, Jason could tell that they were talking about him, and within a few seconds, Rose stood up and walked up to him. She refused to let go of her smile while she walked slowly until she stopped a few inches away from him. “Thank you so much! We are very grateful!” Rose didn’t give Jason the opportunity to respond, and she embraced him tightly, shutting her eyes while she wrapped her arms around hi

Unexpected Reunion
Rose walked out of the mansion a few minutes after she was called by one of the guards at Jason’s instruction. She had a curious expression on her face, and it became a little bit intense the moment she set her eyes on Jason who had a strange smile on his face. “Rose? How are you?” Jason’s face brightened up more the moment he set his eyes on Rose, but she was a little bit confused and ignored his question. “You sent for me.” She said calmly, stopping about three meters in front of Jason who nodded instantly without letting go of his smile. “Oh yes! I have a surprise for you. I am sure you are going to love it. Come on, let’s go!” Jason gestured to Rose to follow him, but she seemed a bit reluctant to even take a step. Jason was forced to turn to look at her when he realized that she hadn't made a move to follow him. “Come on, Rose. This is really important, I am sure you will love it. This is something you have always wanted.” Jason said convincingly, and taking in a deep b

Nadia
Jason received a call while he was driving on the highway. He had to slow the car down at once to be able to take the fall after seeing who the caller was on the screen of the phone. “Harry?” He said, and then he cleared his throat while listening attentively to hear what the Butler was going to say. “Young Master? We found something, I think you need to see this.” Harry said from the other end of the line, and Jason let go of the steering wheel at once while he held onto the phone with his other hand. “Where are you?”“At the location where the shipments were taken,” Harry responded at once, and Jason nodded slowly before grabbing the gear stick. “I will be right there!” He reversed the car at once and changed direction, heading to the location where Harry called from. The road was busy, causing Jason’s impatience to grow, but he remained calm while looking for the best way to maneuver through some of the cars in front of him. “Out of the way!” He barked at one of the st

Merciless
Looking at the people kneeling before him one after the other, Jason smirked, and almost immediately, he sniggered at them while he let them deal with the anxiety that cringed them. “You seek mercy?” He asked, and even though none of them could utter a word, the nod from Isabella and her Grandmother was enough to answer his question. The rest were too ashamed to react to his question. “I see…” He scoffed, and after looking around for a few seconds, he returned his gaze to them without letting go of the smirk on his face. “What you should seek is redemption, all of you. From where I am standing, you do not deserve mercy. Maybe when you have tasted the other side of life just like I have, then you will be able to receive redemption. We are done here, I only came to claim what rightfully belongs to me, your words have no effect on me.” Jason turned to look at Ramon who waited to hear what he was going to say, eager to carry out their instruction. “Ramon?”“Yes, Young Master!” Th
