The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Insightful
As soon as Clark walked out of the room with his properties in his hands, he met with Jason who was feeding the baby with his feeder by a corner in front of the door. “Oh well, it seems your sweet moment has ended. What a pity?” Clark growled at the words that Jason spoke, he held onto all the properties in his hands and stood still wishing he could do something about it, but his hands were occupied. “How didn’t I see this part of you, Clark? I listened to your advice, and I got married to Isabella without even knowing who she was, and two years later, you took her from me. Has this always been your plan all these while?” “Well, maybe if you were rich just like me, your wife wouldn’t have allowed me to screw her, right under your nose.” The words Clark spoke got to Jason, but he chose not to overreact to them, after all, he was no longer married to Isabella, and all he had to deal with was the broken trust. “What? You can’t talk again? Cat got your tongue?” Clark said in a

Jason was surprised it was quite unusual to see a woman riding a taxi, not to talk of a young beautiful woman. He was speechless and stared at her for a while. “Hello, Sir.” The lady called out to him, taking him off his thoughts. “Oh, I am so sorry. I am just not used to…” “Seeing a lady riding a taxi? Yeah, I get that a lot.” Jason sighed, with a little remorse about his demeanor which he felt may have seemed really harsh on the lady. He sighed, again, just before he said the next words in his mind. “I am sorry, I really didn’t mean to be rude.” “That’s okay, as long as you are paying for the ride.” The lady said with a smile on her lips, holding onto the steering wheel with both hands and hopeful that Jason was going to let her take him to his destination. “Right, take me to Number Fifty-one Chariot Street,” Jason said to the lady who thought about the address for a few seconds before she nodded. “Hop in, Sir, that will be 12 dollars.” Jason was surprised at how

The Doctor sighed heavily, and then he turned to look at Jason after a few seconds of staring at the old man. “I can’t really say, Sir. This is a rare kind of situation, it gets really scary and confusing each moment.” Jason looked at the Doctor, he wasn’t sure if she was referring to him or to someone else in the room, but when he turned to his left to look at the two nurses standing by the corner, they seemed to share the same countenance as the Doctor. “What does this even mean? Are you trying to say that he is not gonna be okay?” “No, Sir. That’s not what I meant.” “Then, please explain to me, I am confused.” The Doctor looked at Jason, and she could see was a man who desperately wanted to save his Grandfather, and was willing to do anything just to save him. She took in a deep breath, and then let it out slowly, while Jason waited patiently for her to talk. “Well, Sir. It seems your Grandfather has been poisoned, the symptoms keep on getting deadly by the day. First

The Doctor sighed heavily, getting ready to give a response to the question, while Jason braced himself to hear the response she was going to give. “Four months, Sir. He has only four months.” “What?” Jason said, and his jaw dropped, together with his breath, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his heart tried to escape from his chest. “Yes, Sir. He barely has enough time to live, we really have to find the antidote if we want to keep him alive.” Jason looked at his Grandfather and the tears he had managed to suppress for a long time left his glands and streamed down his face, causing him to sigh heavily, but not in relief. “Everything is going to be okay, Sir. All we need to do is to find out who did this.” The Doctor said to Jason with a soft tone, hoping that she was going to be able to pacify him, but the young man standing before was very heartbroken, there was so much pain written on his face, and his eyes showed intense despair. “Take it easy, Sir. This will eve
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Interrogative
Harry quickly grabbed the doors and opened them for Jason, who walked out immediately, while he followed him behind, shutting the doors after himself. They walked down the staircase and then entered the lobby of the building through the door by the left. The workers were already waiting for them, dressed in their uniforms, with their hands behind them. As soon as they saw Harry with the meager-looking young man, they bowed their heads, but only for Harry, as they weren’t aware who Jason was. “Good day, Boss.” “Good Morning, Boss.” They greeted one after the other, but Harry said nothing in reply, he only continued walking until he got in front of them, and he stopped with Jason right beside him. “You may raise your heads,” Harry said, and at once they lifted their heads, wondering why they had been summoned, they also looked at Jason, wondering who he was. “Allow me to specially introduce you all to someone really important, someone who holds a special balance in this fa

Irene was hesitant to respond to the question, but after a few seconds, she turned around without looking at anybody in particular. “Me, Sir. I am also a chef here.” The young man who Irene was standing beside said, lifting both his right hand and his face. “Oh, I see. Come forward.” Jason said, and the man stepped forward immediately and stood beside Irene. They exchanged glances at each other, and it was really easy to tell that there was a rivalry between them. “What’s your name, Young man?” “Joe, Sir. My name is Joe,” he responded with a very audible tone, lifting his head to look at Jason for a few seconds, before returning it to its previous position. “Well, Joe, how long have you been cooking here?” Joe sighed heavily, and then he looked at Irene whose face was bent to the ground, before giving an answer to the question. “Three years and four months, Sir.” Jason nodded with a smile on his face, having understood what was really going on between them. “I see, t

Jason sighed with a smile on his face, and then he went to a couch positioned very close to the wall by his left and sat down, while the rest of the workers in the lobby looked at him, wondering what he was really up to. He brought out his phone a few seconds later and started to operate on it, chuckling at whatever amused him on social media. He continued, for over thirty minutes, until Irene returned with a large tray containing a plate covered with a dish cover.“Aha! That was really fast!” Jason said with a smile on his face, the moment he saw Irene approaching, he returned his phone to his pocket and adjusted himself, while still smiling at the young lady who felt so pleased at what he did.Irene walked up to the middle of the lobby, to grab a stool, but she struggled to bend as a result of the long tray in her hand. “Don’t worry, I will get that for you,” Jason said, and he stood up, and grabbed the stool, before taking it to the front of the couch where he placed it, befo

Irene whimpered, it felt as though her life was about to end, she turned to look at the bodyguards, and it seemed as though they were waiting for the command to beat her to death. This sight made her swallow hard saliva, as she tried to control her shaking hands, by clamping them together. “I…I…I am sorry, Sir! I was forced to do it!” Irene said after much stuttering, getting down on her knees immediately, as tears rolled down her eyes. “They have my son! They have my son! They promised to kill him if I didn’t do as they wanted.” Jason turned to look at Harry for a few seconds, and then he returned his gaze to Irene who looked as though she was about to pass out on the floor. “You really have to believe me, Sir. You have to believe me, I am telling the truth.” Irene said amidst the tears that left her glands, but Jason said nothing to her, he only looked at the rest of the workers for a while, as they stared at Irene with unbelievable gestures, wondering what was actually goin

I Know!
The rays from the sunlight were shining brightly through the casement windows inside the bedroom. The curtains were half closed, giving way to the rays that hit Brenda’s eyes while she groaned in her sleep. As though there was a force, she opened her eyes instantly, only to behold the sight of shirtless Jason sitting close to her with a tray in both hands. “Wakie wakie! I was worried that too were not going to wake up on time to see this.” Jason had a beautiful smile on his face while he looked at Brenda who adjusted herself slowly, sitting up while she looked at the tray he was carrying. “What’s that?” “Oh! This? I made you breakfast! I had to wake up early just to make sure that everything worked as I planned. Here…” Jason opened the dish cover to reveal the egg and sausages on the plate next to a cup of black coffee. “I tried making the coffee just like you do. I hope I tried.” Jason handed the cup of coffee to Brenda who blew on the coffee before taking a sip. “Easy! I

Special Announcement
While everyone sat comfortably, eating and drinking everything that had been set on the table, Jason picked up the glass of wine in front of him, and after looking at his Grandfather and getting the signal from him, he nodded before lifting the glass. “I have a special announcement!” He hit his fork on the brim of the glass, drawing the attention of everyone seated at the table who instantly put a hold t what they were doing, and paid keen attention to him. Everyone seemed curious to know what he was about to say except the old man who was already done eating his veggies and wiped his lips with a napkin while he maintaining a grin on his face. “First of all, I want to thank Harry for bringing his lovely family to dinner. It’s such a pleasure to have you all here. Family is everything, family is life, and I am happy that he has such a beautiful family.” Jason lifted the glass toward Harry who bowed gently, still wondering what he was up to. “Harry here has been working with thi

Butler’s Family
Jason was the first to step out of the hot tub before Brenda joined him. Handing over one of the two towels he grabbed to her, he gave her a lovely smile which made her blush while she grabbed the towel, and wrapped her body with it. “You are still staring.” Brenda said with her smile intact, but Jason couldn’t take his eyes away from her, not even for a second. “What am I going to ever do without you? You have brought me so much joy, Brenda.” “Nothing, Jay. You are going to do nothing.” Brenda chuckled while Jason nodded without getting rid of his smile. “You are right. Absolutely nothing, that’s what I am going to do if I ever lose you.” “Well, I am not leaving anytime soon. I am here with you, my love.” Brenda patted Jason on both cheeks before she turned and walked toward the bedroom, holding onto her towel with both hands. “We must hurry, Jay! We are having guests, remember?”“Oh, right! I almost forgot about that!” Jason rushed into the room, and got dressed alongsi

Price to Pay
For a few seconds Jason was silent while he exchanged glances with the couple, not sure of who he was to face. It was obvious that they were expecting to hear him speak, but the silence in the room was killing them, having more effect on Lucas who couldn’t forget the words he said to him. He was afraid that the day of reckoning had come, and it was time to pay for all his crimes. Still unable to stop himself from finger mg, especially at the sight of Ramon who gave him threatening looks, Lucas decided to grab his bottle, hoping to get back some of his composure from a gulp. “What’s that?” Jason’s calm words stopped Lucas from grabbing the bottle from the ground, causing him to remain still while he lifted his face slowly to look at him, patches of guilt all over his face. “I can’t believe this.” Jason scoffs. “You really want to drink right now. You have really drowned yourself in so much alcohol. I bet you dream of drinking while you sleep.” Jason sighed softly, and remain

No Choice
Everyone remained silent amidst the tension that surrounded the air. While Lucas kept his eyes on Jason who remained still with a smirk on his face, he struggled with the contemplation of either remaining where he was standing, or moving backward. For a second, he took two steps backward, but because it felt as though his body no longer belonged to him, he couldn’t move afterward. “Hello… Dad. I see you haven’t left your old habits.” Jason pointed at the bottle of whiskey which Lucas tightly held onto even in the midst of the cringe that engulfed him. “It’s you.” Lucas’ voice was shaky. And while he held onto the half-empty bottle, he gently lifted it up to look at it, filled with thoughts of his numerous drinking adventures. It was true that he was intoxicated at that moment, but the sight of Jason and his companions made the effects of the whiskey wear off at once, leaving him to struggle with the situation. “I am just going to let myself in. Excuse me…” Jason gestured to

Hello, Mother
“You know you don’t have to come with me, right? It’s not like he is going to beat me just like he did several years ago.” Jason said to Brenda who was helping him out with his jacket. The news on the internet was getting a lot of attention from even different countries, and knowing that it wasn’t going to die down if he didn’t do anything about it, Jason decided to pay his foster parents a visit that night, discarding his initial plans to go see them the next day. “You are not going to be able to talk me out of this, Jay. I suggest you quit your attempts and allow me to come with you. Trust me, you are going to need me to support you, and I will always be by your side, Jay. No matter what.” Brenda’s words were helpful at that moment, and a bright smile appeared on Jason’s face, taking over his worried expression. “Thank you. I am glad you are coming with me, Brenda.” “Good. That’s all I needed you to say.” “But you have to go to work tomorrow, and I know how much you love

Foster Ordeal
As soon as he got the call from Brenda, Jason stepped out of the mansion and moved into the car. He drove to the hospital at once, and a few minutes after he parked the car, Brenda walked out of the building with her handbag carefully held with both hands. “Are you okay?” Jason asked, still staring at her even when she got into the car and slammed the door. “Yeah. Why?”“Nothing, love. I just wasn’t expecting that you would call me to come pick you up this early. It’s only been a few hours.” Jason looked at his Hublot wristwatch to ascertain that it wasn’t close to closing time yet. “Yeah…” Brenda grunted slowly, and after letting out the air she inhaled, she continued with a low tone. “I have just been feeling very tired lately, Jay. Even the patients I attended to noticed the difference. I think I will just rest today, probably by tomorrow I should be fine.” “Are you sure? Maybe we should go on a vacation or something. We should go…” Jason suggested, but Brenda shook her

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
