The Midnight Heir THE BUSBOYS
“Hmm?” Anthony grunted with his head still facing the top floor but his eyes flicked to his side where he saw two black vans parked close to the garage.“It makes sense that the Busboys are here too” Anthony mumbled.On sight, he already knew what those vans being here meant and which set of people came here in them. It was a dispatch team from an organization known as The Busboys.The Busboys are an independent organization in charge of doing clean-up for the underground crime world and that means all types of cleaning up which mostly leans toward the illegal side of things.The three groups they clean up for include The Mob and the two others.Aside from that, as a neutral party unaffiliated to any of the three groups, The Busboys are also in charge of looking after The Untitled Hotel and now that it was back to running because room 30 had been occupied, they are here to do their jobs.They were supposed to have done all of this for Anthony when he first came and they were in the pr
The Midnight Heir REUNION
A minute ago, the moment the elevator doors opened and the last floor was exposed to Anthony, Joseph, and Josephine, an elated Josephine was the first one to skip out of the metal box, innocently playing around the corridor while the other two watched her.She was very happy that they were just a few feet away from meeting their sister, Tessa while Joseph who also felt that way at the same time had the meeting with the Busboys dispatch team's supervisor playing over and over in his head.He couldn't help but imagine himself being dressed just like one of The Busboys, especially the man he talked to."Which room is yours, uncle?" Josephine asked, looking confused as she changed which room she was pointing at one after the other."Is it that one?" She said pointing at the last room out of all of them and looking at which room she was pointing Anthony creased his forehead and pursed his lips. "No, that room belongs to someone else and I would advise both of you not to go near it," Antho
The Midnight Heir THE CATCH
Inside his hotel room's kitchen which is where he had been for the past half an hour, Anthony had his phone out, rhythmically tapping on the contact profile of the Faller's home landline while contemplating if he should call them or not.He was apprehensive because the last time he spoke with a member of the Faller family it was Samuel who relayed his mother's message which was a warning for him to stay away from all of them and as an extension Amanda as well.Even though Amanda's biological father had helped Anthony in the past which is the reason he feels protective over the little girl, she is still the adopted daughter of the Fallers and as such, whatever her adoptive mother says, goes."It's been over a month now, probably should have been enough time for her to heal since the surgery, right?" Anthony mumbled with a creased forehead while scratching his hair.Suddenly, he smacked his tongue and stuffed his phone into his pocket.He grunted "Whatever, I'll just go to the hospital
The Midnight Heir SHADOW DREAM
{"Young Master, HE has her, I saw it, I saw her, Laur-- is still al—"} the words Anthony watched Franklin struggle to say with his dying breath.{"Wait Franklin, I don't understand! What are you trying to say—?!"} Anthony asked, reaching a hand out to Franklin and the man tried to reach out too but...Just as he was about to make contact, suddenly the sound of his alarm going off echoed in Anthony's head, filling him with confusion as he knew what that sound was but at the same time, it seemed unnatural to be hearing it.The next thing he knew, everything he was seeing became pitch black and he could feel like he was back in the realm where he interacted with his grandfather, Valestein Midnight but at the same time had a feeling that he could be wrong.{"Where am I— Grandfather? What are you doing here?"} Anthony asked when out of nowhere he blinked and saw Valestein there with him.The sight of his grandfather made his initial feeling seem more credible now and so as he looked around
The Midnight Heir SEEKING SCANDALS
Anthony walked through the hospital's sliding entrance doors and immediately he was greeted with the sight of a differently designed interior than what he was used to seeing the last couple of times he came here.From how the place looks, it was obvious that the changes were made as a response to the chaos he and Franklin had caused a month ago.It was now optimized to ensure that the patients and their visitors are safe from being involved in any possible conflicts in the future.Yes, the possibility of a fight breaking out in a hospital is low but in the little chance that it does happen then they wanted to make sure that everyone was safe and clear from being involved.There were also emergency phones on the walls so that anyone can call the paramedics for help instead of having to get through to them using the landline on the counter. Those few seconds could be a life saver and that's the main goal."Hmm!?" Anthony mumbled when he stopped by the entrance doors and could hear a lit
The Midnight Heir DANA HEADQUARTERS
She gulped then rushed to get her documents "That won't be necessary Sir, I heard you loud and clear the second time. I'll just check my records to see what happened with the little girl after you paid for the surgery."She flipped through the pages like a mad person.Nurse Juliet has no memory of Amanda being discharged but it could have happened when her shift was over, hence why she had to check the records.Every patient that comes in and goes out of those doors is filled within its pages, either by her or by the nurse who does the evening shift. As such, the records holds the truth of Amanda's status."Got it!" Nurse Juliet exclaimed, pointing at Amanda's data on the pages of the record and Anthony focused his eyes on it."Looks like she was released a week ago, fully healed and she was signed out by her parents, the Fallers" Nurse Juliet said before looking at Anthony, concerned about not knowing how he would respond to that information.Anthony on the other hand creased his for
The Midnight Heir BENJAMIN’S BETRAYAL
Benjamin's words were a little muffled as he spoke but Anthony could understand him just fine, especially when he got as close as he did.The reason for his muffled voice was because Benjamin had a black face mask on which he used to conceal his overly stitched face but his completely naked eyes glared at Anthony cockily.The little squint his eyes were doing and the rise in his cheekbones allowed Anthony to know what expressions Benjamin had under the mask and it was obvious that he was grinning from ear to ear. Suddenly, his focus changed from Anthony when he took his eyes down to the motorcycle next to him.Benjamin said, "What's this hunk of junk doing here?!" He scoffed then continued "Why don't I help you out by getting the security to take this to the scrapyard? Maybe you can get some cheap change for it," he shrugged "How does $100 sound to you? I know something like that can mean a huge deal to someone of your status"Anthony refused to fall for his provocations, instead, he
The Midnight Heir MISS CHARLIE
The moment Anthony walked into the building he saw how beautiful and luxurious it was. Yes, the outside is one thing but the interior was completely mesmerizing to all who see it when compared.The tiled floors sparkled and reflected everything off them like a mirror and not even a spec of dust could be found on them.Everyone there who worked the corporate jobs had expensive and well-tailored suits which are to be expected since they are being paid well to do their jobs perfectly.As for the other types of jobs like security and the rest, their equipment was well polished and their uniforms were made out of the best materials that money can buy."He said the assistant should be somewhere around here didn't he?" Anthony asked himself as he looked around, walking in one specific direction but sadly he didn't know what Mr. Rose Dana's assistant looked like. All he could do aside from asking anybody he comes across was to search for anyone who looked like they were waiting for someone a

ADOPTIVE SON ARC FINALE
Abraham rose from his chair and looked at Johnathan with shock."Master Johnathan, what do you mean by that?! Are you seriously giving up on all of this and want to return home?!" Abraham asked enthusiastically.Johnathan was left speechless as he looked at Abraham and was grimacing in confusion.He never knew Abraham would react this way to what he said and it was like he was happy to hear him give up on the mission.Abraham grinned "Even though we've already done this much, it's not too late to stop all of this and return home Master Johnathan," he said then dropped on his chair.He immediately opened his desk drawer and searched for some documents which he started arranging, hoping to start packing what they needed so that they could leave this place first thing in the morning.Johnathan cleared his throat when he had seen enough."What is it, Master Johnathan? Do you have a cough? Sore throat maybe? Don't worry, I'll be right there to check what's wrong but first lemme put these d

Johnathan looked at George and then at Abraham when he got close and he realized that he had forgotten a piece of vital information."Master Jo—" Abraham said but Johnathan quickly interrupted him."Not exactly. I forgot to tell you but this is Abraham, the person I called on the phone back at the bowling rink and he's the one sponsoring me so that I can attend Wellstone. I also call him my guardian like I told you" George looked at Johnathan skeptically then he looked at the luxurious apartment."So you're saying that none of this belongs to you but him?" George asked."Yes"George nodded his head and then started smiling."I thought so. No way a cool and nice guy like you comes from wealth. You almost gave me a heart attack there, not cool" George said.Abraham and the maids looked at George and they were all frowning that he could be talking to their master like this. He should show some respect.Seeing that they were going to lash out at George, Johnathan gave them a signal while

Johnathan stared at this student, wondering if he wanted to get involved with him or not. He's already helped him wake up so should he involve himself beyond this point?In the end, he came up with his answer."I'm nobody," Johnathan said then stood up and stuffed his hands into his hoodie pocket."As you can see the party is over so you should start going him. That's why I'm doing" Johnathan said.The student looked around and he was disappointed that he missed the party. A reaction that Johnathan found strange because he was more concerned about that than the fact Bradly had knocked him unconscious."Whoever you are, thanks for waking me up. I should also start heading—" The student said as he was standing up but then his stomach started hurting and he crashed back down.The student grabbed his stomach and started wincing from the pain."What's wrong?" Johnathan asked him, worried that something else might be wrong."I don't know, my stomach just hurts like hell. Was it something I d

"Hey Bradly, how come it seems like you know the Welfie on a personal level when none of us have ever seen him before?" One of the two students who came with Bradly asked.Immediately, a grin popped up on Bradly's face."What do you think worm, should I tell them?" Bradly whispered in Johnathan's ear and Johnathan jolted.Johnathan knew instantly what Bradly's plan was and what he was going to say to everyone and his heart started pounding fast."Listen, Bradly, don't say anything. Even though it was fake, we were still friends for—" Johnathan said but Bradly cut him off."Oh, you thought I was asking? For reminding me how I had to listen to your stupid complaints which made my brain melt all those time, watch this" Bradly said then stepped away from Johnathan and in the process, he brought out his phone and raised it in front of everyone.Bradly quickly went to the Bubble Tv platform, found a certain video, copied the link, and then sent it as a comment underneath the post on the scho

Back at the apartment, Abraham was seated in his office chair and was going through some documents when his phone on the desk suddenly started ringing.Seeing who the caller was, Abraham hurriedly answered the call.“Master Zebadiah, good evening or should I say good afternoon in your case,” Abraham said.[“Thank you Abraham and greetings to you too. I was just calling to ask how are you and Johnathan settling into the apartment? Hope everything is to his liking”] Zebadiah said.“Yes master, Master Johnathan gave his approval of the place a while ago. He told me that he’s happy to have somewhere like this close to his school to hang out during days he wants to get away from school stress”[“That’s good to hear. And Johnathan, where is he right now?”]“Well, master Johnathan told me that his level-mates were organizing a get-together somewhere close by so he went to go check it out. He wants to make as many acquaintances as possible before he starts school officially”Zebadiah grunted.

Johnathan was almost a whole foot taller than Zack was and because he wasn’t sitting and hunching anymore, his hoodie didn’t seem as big as it used to.Zack and his friends were starting to see that not only was Johnathan tall but he was also muscular and all three of him were speechless.“Hey Zack, don’t just stand there, teach that Welfie a lesson not to mess with people like us,” Someone from the crowd said.Even though he didn’t want to, Zack just had to show himself and there was only one way he could try to conquer Johnathan since he couldn’t attack him physically.“Listen here Welfie, as I said before, I’m Zack Griffin from the Griffin family and I’m sure you’ve heard of me. If you know what’s good for you, better let go of my hand right now or else you’ll receive a message from the school first thing tomorrow morning about your expulsion. Trust me, I can make that happen” Zack threatened then smirked.Johnathan shrugged “You can try but you’ll be surprised by the outcome,” he

The reason they were treating Johnathan this way was because they hadn't seen him anywhere around the school before and that only meant one thing.In Wellstone, the kids from the richest family are given their admission first and they are also given top priority in everything else so they are the first to start the academic session.The school would never admit that this preferential treatment exists but it does nonetheless and it is usually the students who enforce it with their actions.The later your resumption shows your level of importance in the school and with that mindset, even though the school is massive with thousands of students, everyone knows who the important people to look up to and respect are.For them not to know Johnathan only means that he either is just starting his academic session now or isn't that important for any of them to know. This makes him someone under scholarship or someone who's barely able to attend Wellstone.None of those two options are good posi

The more they walked, the closer and louder the music became and there was a door in front of them which had the bowling alley behind it.Johnathan could see colorful lights escaping from the cracks which let him know that it isn’t just bowling but there should also be a party happening in there.Whoever organized this must have paid a pretty penny to transform a regular bowling rink into a disco party but since they are students of Wellstone, the money should be considered a cheap change to them.Because of how close Johnathan was behind her, Shirley got annoyed and stopped walking."Why the hell are you following me?" She asked and Johnathan grimaced.He also stopped after hearing the ridiculousness of the accusation."Who said I'm following you?" He asked."You are so there's no use denying it," she said as a vein bulged on her forehead.Johnathan scoffed then he smacked his tongue."Listen here miss Vice President or whatever you call yourself—""It's Shirley, Shirley Price.

Johnathan grimaced as he leaned closer, getting all up in her face."Oh really? You don't know her?" He asked and she avoided eye contact."If that's true then why don't I believe you? Something tells me that you do know her and you're lying to me to protect your friend" Johnathan said and Shirley got irritated."I told you I don't know anyone like that so get the hell out of my personal space!" Shirley got aggressive and pushed him away.Because of how tall and more muscular than her Johnathan was, her shove didn't really do much but he moved back on his own accord anyway."You said this entire place was reserved for the students of Wellstone, those were your own words, and that right there was where she robbed." Johnathan pointed at where he made contact with the girl with red and black hair."What other proof do I need to show that she was a fellow student of Wellstone and as the Vice President you know or at least have an idea of who she is" Johnathan pursed his lips."I said I do
