In less than a minute, the elevator took them to the top floor, and as soon as the doors opened widely after the chime sound, they got out with Harry leading the way, they walked through the hallway until they got to a door at the right end. Harry went into the room after opening the door which was halfway open already, before Jason followed suit at once, looking at his Grandfather who was lying down on a bed at the right corner of the room. The nurse was standing beside him, and checking his vitals, while two out of the six bodyguards who had taken him up stood at a corner. “Is he okay?” Jason asked, causing the Doctor to turn at once to see him walking up to her. She removed the stethoscope from her ear, balanced it on her ear, and then took a short look at the old man who was breathing slowly on the bed. “He is fine, but he needs the antidote as soon as possible. His body can no longer handle this.” “But I thought you said he had a few months left.” Brenda sighed heavil
Harry paused for a while, and then he gave in eventually to the demands made by Jason, and sighed softly. “If you insist. Goodnight, Young Master.” “Goodnight, Harry. See you tomorrow.” Jason responded with a soft smile, and then he looked away from Harry and returned his gaze to his Grandfather, still holding onto his hand. After taking one long look at Jason, Harry sighed again, and then he looked at the old man before he walked slowly out of the room, shutting the door behind him. “You too, you can have your rest. I will be here with him.” Jason said softly to the bodyguards by his right, turning to look at them. They looked at Jason and then turned to look at each other, not sure if they were to abandon their duty or not. “Don’t worry, I will handle things from here. I am sure you must really be tired.” The men looked at him for a while, with countenances that showed that they didn’t want to go, even though he insisted. “Go on! Go!” Jason urged with a loud tone, ca
Jason mumbled, as his eyes opened gradually, until his blurry vision became really clear. He had fallen asleep on the chair while keeping watch over his Grandfather. “Good morning, Young Master.” Harry greeted as soon as he pushed the door open, and walked into the room to see Jason seated on a seat. “Good morning, Harry. Hope you slept well.” “Sure. Thank you.” Jason tried to get up, but his body was weak, and some parts around his waist ached due to the posture he was in while he slept. “I have some news about the inquiry you asked me to make.” Hearing those words from the butler, Jason blinked his eyes severally and stretched his hands slowly, as he tried to understand what he was talking about. “What inquiry?” He asked, as he managed to get up from the chair, and turned to look at the butler who was standing behind him. “The car auction.” “Oh, what about it?” Jason asked at once, his entire attention was drawn to the middle-aged man standing in front of him, who
“Oh, no, Mr. Walker. I have an urgent appointment, and I have to be there in less than an hour.” “Oh,” Jason mumbled softly and turned his face to his Grandfather in an attempt to hide the feeling inside him. “See you later, Bye,” Brenda said without referring to anyone in particular, as she walked stylishly out of the room, with the two men looking at her, particularly Jason who couldn’t comprehend the way he felt seeing her walk away. He kept on looking until she was out of sight and shut the door behind her. Not able to understand what was going on with him, he sighed heavily, and then he blinked severally as though that was going to help with his thoughts. Harry realized that he had been struggling with taking his eyes off her until she was out of sight, and then he smiled softly and cleared his throat twice, causing Jason to turn to look at him. “She is really a beautiful young lady, one of the rare type with solid character and other exceptional qualities. She is kind
Harry turned toward the door and left the room at once, while Jason followed a few seconds later after he had taken one last look at his Grandfather. They walked through the hallway, and in less than a minute, they got to the end of it, Harry opened the door by the left, getting into the room at once with Jason right behind him. “Here you go, Young Master. Everything you need is right here, but if you need any other thing, do not hesitate to call me.”“This will go, Harry. Thank you.” Harry bowed slightly with a smile on his face, and then he walked out of the room, closing the door behind him. Jason sighed softly as he stood right in the middle of the room, Scouring with his eyes, and savoring the beauty of the place. It was evident to him that his eyes were meeting more and more luxury, and he wondered if there was more. “Well, Daddy sure lived like a king.” He nodded in intense satisfaction, and then he walked around the antechamber, admiring the interior décor of the
Jason grabbed one of the sandwiches from the stainless dish, and took a bite at once, giving in to the hunger in him, as his stomach suddenly started to rumble as soon as he perceived the sweet aroma of the food on the table. “I think you should have that with some coffee as well,” Harry said, pointing to the jug in front of Jason which he grabbed almost immediately, poured some of its content into a coffee cup, and returned it to its position. He added some milk from the cup of milk on the table, and stirred severally, while still holding onto the cup, just in case the milk wasn’t enough, When he was sure that he had added enough milk to the coffee, he dropped the cup of milk, brought out the spoon, and hit it gently on the tip of the cup to be sure that no liquid was going to drop on the table, before he balanced it on the saucer. Harry watched him with keen admiration as he did all of that, proving that he was well-cultured, even though he may not have lived a life of luxur
With the thoughts that resided in his mind constantly reoccurring throughout the ride to the Palmer residence, Jason could only sigh severally, that the guard in the driver’s seat was forced to steal interval looks at him, wondering what was wrong with him. “A lot has happened within a few days, my head bangs!” He whispered loudly, but the only thing the guard could hear was mumblings, as Jason’s words were inaudible to him, and all of his efforts to hear him were futile. Feeling that someone was watching him, Jason was moved by impulse, as he changed his view from staring at nothing to looking at the rearview mirror, only to see the eyes of the guard staring at him, even though he withdrew his gaze at once. Instantly, Jason’s thoughts were drifted by the sight of himself which made him really uncomfortable. He looked at the time on his wristwatch and sighed. “I still have some time left, I could take some time to myself. After all, I don’t see what I would be doing there exce
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
