The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Drive
Jason took one last look at the old man and walked out of the room slowly after he had pushed the two doors open.“Make sure no one enters this room till I am back. No one!” “Yes. Young Master!” The two bodyguards responded in unison, bowing slightly to Jason immediately after he said those words. He waited in the hallway for a few seconds, looking to his right, and then to his left, as though he was trying to see if there were any potential threats around. Satisfied by what he had seen, he slowly walked down the stairs and went out of the building. “Young Master! Going somewhere?” Sam the Chauffeur asked as soon as he saw Jason standing outside the tall building, and looking sideways. Jason turned to look at him for a few seconds, without saying anything, but the man kept on approaching with slow but steady steps. “I will drive you to wherever you wish to go, Sir,” Sam said, taking a slight bow at Jason who remained silent, even though he was looking at him. After a fe

Having said those words, Jason drove for a few seconds, and then he parked by the side of the road, making sure that he was not going to obstruct some other cars from moving. Picking up his phone from the center console, he operated on it for some seconds, going through the Google map on his phone. “Yeah, right there. I think this will do.” He kept the phone slowly in the center console again and turned on the ignition of the car, driving toward the direction the Google map pointed to. He drove for a few seconds until he got to a building with the sign ‘CUTX’ written boldly on the board very close to the door, and he turned almost immediately, and parked in front of the building. Jason adjusted the collar of his cloth and then looked at himself in the rearview mirror, making sure that he didn’t appear too shabby. When he was satisfied, he got out of the car and pressed a button on the remote control to lock the car, causing it to make a beeping sound. He walked right tow
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Acquaintance
Jason seemed a little bit surprised that the lady knew about his marriage, and that made him a bit embarrassed for a while, but he had to brace himself up, in order not to create so much tension in his body. “Well, we are divorced now.” “Yeah, I heard that too, that just really be tough on you, especially with a child in the picture.” “Hmm?” Jason mumbled in surprise, at how viral his story had gone. “Oh, come on, don’t feel bad, I am sure that this was probably meant to be. You were really a nice guy back then, I wonder why things didn’t work out for the both of us.” Elsa said with a smile on her face, but the last few words caught Jason off-guard, as he wasn’t really prepared to hear them. “Really, Elsa?” “What? What, Jason? You used to be all over me back then, and all of a sudden you stopped a few weeks before we left school, only for me to hear that you had gotten married, I felt heartbroken.” Jason stared at her for a while, as the feeling of uncertainty went throu

“I knew it!”Jason said to himself, as he looked at the lady and felt so disappointed with the words that came out of her mouth, but she didn’t seem to be in a hurry to let go of the thoughts running through her mind. “I don’t know if you made your findings, but this is really an expensive Barbershop, one of the best if not the best in Granada Hills. I wouldn’t want you to embarrass yourself.” Elsa said, causing Jason to lift his head to look at her, while she continued to smile, not willing to let go. “I can see that, Elsa, you really have done well for yourself. This is really an exquisite place, I love the ambiance.” “Thank you, Jason, but I still don’t think you understand the things I said.” “And what are they?” Jason said, feigning ignorance as he looked at her with an expression that showed that he was devoid of the actual message she was trying to pass across. Elsa took him by his hand, and then he dragged him gently to a corner very close to the entrance of the ba

“Oh, hi babe!” Elsa said in response to the man who grabbed her waist from behind and kissed her as she turned her face toward him, chuckling in the euphoria of the moment. Jason bent his face, as he suddenly became a bit uncomfortable with the awkward moment that was before him. First, he had to face insults from her, and then there came a man kissing her. “I thought you had a meeting.” “Yeah, but it got really boring, plus I just couldn’t wait to see you.” “Awn! That’s so sweet of you.” Elsa said to the man, blushing as her face turned pink, accompanied by a slight chuckle. She wrapped her arms around the man’s neck and looked right into his eyes with a smile on her lips. “Well, that’s why you love me, isn’t it?” “Of course honey, you are the sweetest man ever!” Elsa said and chuckled again, with the man doing the same almost at the same time. Getting tired of the sight before him, Jason sighed heavily, and then he turned to return to the reception to continue what he
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Invite
“What the hell are you talking about?” “You don’t get it, Elsa. There is always a difference between appearance and reality.” Elsa chuckled at Jason’s words, and when she turned to look at her boyfriend, they both burst out into a long period of laughter, almost losing their balance, as they took turns looking at Jason who said nothing. “Oh, my goodness, I knew it! You are meant for the stage, you really should pursue a career as a stand-up comedian, it really would help you to feed and afford some new pair of clothes, I am sure that it really has been a torment ever since the Palmers rejected you.” “Yeah babe, that must have really been a painful experience for him. I think I can help him find a spot at a friend’s bar. You remember Coleman right?” Elsa thought about the words Lincoln said for a while, and when she finally recognized the man he was talking about, she chuckled slightly and turned her face to look at Jason. “Yes, I remember, he would really love to have him,

Jason paused for a while, and then he looked at Elsa, and seeing the determination in her to make fun of him at the reunion, he chuckled slightly, causing her to wonder what was so funny. “Yeah, I am sure. I will be there.” “Great! I look forward to seeing you then, I am sure everyone will be excited to see you.” “Right,” Jason said softly and said Elsa moved to Lincoln who grabbed her waist and pulled her to himself, while the two of them chuckled almost at the same time, trying to hide their mocking stares at Jason, but he already understood what they were doing, and had his own plans of retaliation. “I really have to go now, it was nice seeing you Elsa, and you too Lincoln.” “Don’t be in a hurry man,” Lincoln said, wedging his right hand in front of Jason, to stop him from leaving. Almost immediately, he put his right hand into his pocket and brought out a twenty-dollar bill which he handed over to him. “Here, you can use this to pick a cab, I am sure that you planned o
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Meeting
“That’s okay, Young Master. You are here now.” Gregory said, getting up from his seat as soon as he saw Jason approaching. “Thank you for agreeing to see me under such short notice, I am grateful,” Jason said extending his right hand to have a handshake with Gregory who shook his hand without hesitation, smiling at the same time. “Please, have a seat,” Gregory said, pointing at the seat in front of Jason after he had withdrawn from the handshake. Jason moved to the wooden seat and sat down slowly, looking at the files on the table. “What do you have for me, Greg?” He asked, as soon as the Attorney sat down on the seat next to him, which was also very close to the table in front of them. “Gregory adjusted his white suit, and then he cleared his throat, picked up one of the blue files, and handed it over to Jason who took it at once. “Those are some of the things I was able to come up with, I hope they help with it,” Gregory said, pointing at the blue file that he handed ove
