The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. What happened Bella?
Isabella couldn’t say any word. She kept mute for a few seconds unable to get herself to tell her mother of the twist of the encounter she had at the law firm. Seeing the worrisome look on her face, Fiona turned towards Clark with an inquisitive stare but the young man seemed to be in the same gloomy mood as her daughter. “What’s wrong baby! Is everything ok? Clark?” Fiona asked as her heart began to slowly speed up with irregular beats for some reason that wasn’t clear to her. “Oh don’t tell me you are thinking twice about dumping his silly ass! He was a poor bastard and couldn’t have been able to ever take care of you. He wouldn’t have been able to match your standards.” Maya said appearing from the back with her right hand clutching her phone tightly. “Come here Sweetie. No one to be sad you did absolutely the right thing.” Chloe said and embraced Isabella tightly with a smile on her face. Exactly my thoughts, I don’t know why she would be carrying a long face. Who wouldn
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Silence
Jason ignored the looks on the faces of the members of the Palmer family in the living room and walked into the room slowly, this time with a straight face. He made his way towards the staircase but Jacob quickly blocked him with a slight push on his chest. “Where the hell do you think you are going?” Jacob asked glaring shots of displeasure and eagerness to start a fight with Jason. Jason clutched his fists, tightening them as though he was about to throw a punch but inhaling slowly, he let go of the anger inside of him. Jacob was really getting on his nerves and certainly he was going to pay for his actions. “What do you intend to do about that? Fight me? You dare not! Else I would have you locked up and the keys your cell thrown into the Pacific Ocean.” Jacob glared as he saw that Jason had tightened his fists together. “I do not have time for this Jacob, kindly leave my way!” “And if I don’t? What are you gonna do about that yeah fight me? Coward!” Jason ignored J
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Rage!
Andrew was the first to come down, he had always been expecting his grandmother to react in a certain way especially with the arrival of Jason to the house which Isabella didn’t seem to handle so well as they had expected. “Good evening Mum. How are you?” Fiona asked her mother standing up gradually from her sitting position, but the woman sneered at her and rolled her eyes at the same time. “Where is Isabella? Where is she?” “Welcome Granny how was your day?” Andrew said smiling at Lady Palmer whose temper was rising beyond the surface of the building. “Does it mean that no one understood my question or I am speaking in a foreign language? I said where is Isabella? For the last time, where is she?” “I will go fetch her Mum, please be calm.” Fiona pleaded and rushed outside the house and towards the pool. Lady Palmer at this point was pacing around the living room livid, her breath was escalating above it’s normal pace and her hands shaking amidst the effects of the n
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Taxi Man
Jason looked properly to see who was speaking from inside the driver’s seat of the vehicle, that was when he realized who it was; the same driver who had insulted him because he couldn’t afford to give him the extra charges he asked for. “Yo man! I hear you were served divorce papers. I bet you finally got what you deserved! Serves you right!” Said the main as he sniggered shaking his head in a funny way just to make mockery of Jason. “What? Why aren’t you saying anything? Cat cut your tongue?” He said again and laughed hysterically at Jason.At first, Jason’s intentions were to walk away from the man, but on a second thought he felt it was better to carry on with him not mindful of his attitude. “I just want to get to my destination. I want no trouble.” Jason said calmly not in the mood to exchange words with the man. “Oh I see! Even if I was to see my trouble to you, bet you wouldn’t even be able to afford it. Loser.” “Just take me to the nearest hotel in town. I will pay

The two hefty men paid no attention to Thomas, they continued to drag him along the floor until they got to a corner in the alley before they forcefully hurled him to the wall and stood next to him as his two sides. The impact made him grunt in pain as soon as he landed on the rough wall. He shut his eyes in pain and extended his right hand to his back to rub off the intense pain. “Who are you? What do you want? I don’t have anything, I am just a taxi driver.” Thomas said with a whimper still trying to ease the pain with his hands but the two hefty men on black suits beside him said nothing, it was as though they were programmed not to speak. Thomas panted in pain, then he relaxed himself with his legs stretching out to enable him balance, he dared not run for the sight of the two hefty men alone was enough to send cold shivers down his spine. “Please! Just let me go. I swear I won’t come to this place again. Don’t harm me I beg you.” Thomas pleaded the men who refused to budg
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Royal Castle
It took less than ten minutes for them to get to their location, there standing elegantly tall in the middle of night with an outstanding glitter that made it the center of attraction was the Royal Castle Hotel. It was the best hotel in the whole of Granada Hills, and only people of high profile like politicians and celebrities could be able to afford the luxury of the hotel. The car parked at the parking space of the hotel and as he looked at the tall structure before him, Jason marveled at the alluring sight of the hotel. It was built like a modern castle, the roofing was mounted on the building like a pinnacle, and the building itself seemed to be carved by the finest of artists. The ambience of the hotel was exquisite, sending sparkles of proficiency and wonder to anyone who dared to even take a peep at it. The gardens surrounding the hotel had all sorts of light around them and the statues also were outstanding, giving the euphoria of both and new architecture. Jason was

“What? That’s more than twice my salary!” The guard standing close was shocked at the amount the Male Receptionist mentioned, he left his mouth wide open and turned towards Jason, expecting him to have an expected reaction. “Yeah! So you see exactly why I asked him if he was thought this place was an amusement park or the street. He clearly doesn’t know where he is.” Mira said allowed rolling her eyes at Jason. “I will take it.” Jason said without blinking, his countenance was laced with an intense confidence that shocked everyone around. “Sir, I am not sure you understand, I said that the room costs two hundred thousand dollars per night and we wouldn’t even be able to offer it to you if you are not a VVIP in this place. If you don’t mind, I could recommend a cheaper room for you.” “Francis, don’t even bother, I am sure he wouldn’t even be able to afford to pay ten thousand dollars for the most affordable room we have here. Can’t you see the way he looks, like a beggar.” Mir
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Black Card
Mira was angry that the poor fellow was trying to turn the whole thing into a show but who didn’t want to see him humiliated? She figured that he was biting more than he could chew and definitely wanted to make sure he was dealt with. “If you do not pay for the room as you have said, you will work for me as my cleaner at home for free for a month.” “And if I do?” Jason asked with full confidence. “That’s not even possible, I am sure of that.” Mira scoffed and looked at Jason again. The feeling of confidence crept into her and she was also sure to deal with him for being such a stubborn fellow. “What if I do? What becomes of you?” “I see you still find this funny, if you do then I would come work for you as your cleaner for a month.” “Mira!” Francis said aloud trying to call his colleague to order. Something inside of him told him that there could be more to the man’s shabby appearance and he believed his instincts. “Don’t worry, I am certain that by the time all these is
