The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 122: GAME OVER, ANTHONY WINS THE BET!!
"Huh? Lady Maple and the rest of the family are here?" On the ground, Lucia's eyes shone wide when she caught the glimpse of her master family, marching up to them in the resting area and instantly all the pain from her broken wrist vanished, smirking mischievously when she had a wicked plan pop into her head.She got up and ran to Vlad, causing the rest to stop walking forward while acting like she was a victim, crying loudly and trying to garner their sympathy which prompted Anthony and investigator Kim to turn around and face the crowd. "What do we have here?" Smiling, Investigator asked as he looked at all of them who were on a lower level than he and Anthony because the Maples and the rest were at the base of the rest place. Anthony on the other hand remained quiet, forehead creased.Vlad held on to Lucia who acted like she wanted to faint, playing the role of the victim perfectly and surprising investigator Kim who was watching and the act was making him to have second thoughts
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 123: ANNABELLE WAKES UP
Annabelle's room was completely dark and because he hadn't gotten the time to rest since his exit from The Oat Stone Villa in Haven, sitting and watching his wife sleep was such a peaceful experience that he didn't know when he slept right next to her. Although uncomfortable, he maintained his balance on the small chair, body staying perfectly still so as not to stain any part of the room with his bloodied hands.Finally, the drug in Annabelle's system had worn off and because the last thing she remembered was Benjamin's lustful eyes and feeling his hands trying to get her naked before she lost consciousness, when Annabelle regained said consciousness she continued from that state of fear and panic, screaming for help as she hurried sat upright.She flailed her arms energetically in self defense before realizing the difference in her surroundings. Before she was surrounded by the brightness of the outside world but right now it was some dark place she was is. It took some intent obser
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 124: SMALL TALK WITH PATIENCE
"What took you so long?! I thought I was never going to see you again, Anthony! Do you know how miserable I was all by myself in that school? You should have found me sooner!" she said loudly, obviously showing signs that she wanted him to comfort her but he was hesitant.He wanted to hug her back and even rub her head to let her know that he was there for her more than anything but looking at his arms, the light from the lamp made the dried up blood on his hands look more dirty and disturbing than it actually was and he didn't want to touch and stain her innocent and clean skin with that.He was filled with second guessing himself but what he didn't expect was when Annabelle stopped hugging him for a brief moment, reached for his right hand herself and placed it on her head while his other hand she helped guide it and wrapped it around her waste, placing it gently on her back, with the tip of his middle finger being less than an inch away from touching her panties."But Annabelle, my
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 125: MR. ROSE DANA’S MASTER REVEALED
Out of all of them, he picked the one which was a light desert dish having a lot of sugar in the ingredients and the maid went to him, lowered herself to hand him the dish which he took before she went back to stand with the rest on the line. The sugar was to replenish all he had lost during this case.Patience continued "I know a hotel might seem like a good choice for comfort but I can wholeheartedly tell you Mr. Dana that there is nothing as comforting as being home so if you would have called me ahead of time, I would have suggested that you bring this distinguished guest of yours and I and my family would have taken care of him like he's one of our own, showing the best of what hospitality can be, isn't that right kids?" She said, bringing her children and grandchildren into the mix and they not expecting this started to laugh nervously, agreeing to whatever she had said.An awkward amount of time had past and they didn't know when it had been long enough so Patience was beginnin
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 126: INVITE
Instantly, Patience leaned so far forward so fast that she almost lunched herself off her own chair. Her fingers sunk deep into the armrest, almost leaving claw marks on the material."Midnight?! Pardon my disbelief Mr. Dana but you mean the actual Midnight family, right?! The number one out of the seven progenitor families, that Midnight family?!" She asked with widened eyes, looking very energetic and standing on the edge of disbelief but she also knew that Mr. Rose Dana wasn't someone that would lie about something like this."What? Progenitor family? What are you talking about, Grandmother?" Julius asked, forehead creased while staring surprisingly at at Patience and the rest of the family were looking like they shared the same sentiment as him, having no idea what Patience was talking about.The name Midnight is common worldwide, most especially within people of similar social status as the Maples. However, what isn't common and is only a rumor is the fact that they are the proge
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 127: COMPROMISE
She was clearly offended and tried to come up with a way around it "Mr. Dana, there's no need to be hasty with your decision. I hadn't even given a date to when I'll like to have the party, yet. There's a lot of planning that comes with a celebration as big as the one I would like to have so you and Master Midnight can just hold up on the decision of declining and I'm sure that when you're both less busy, it'll be the perfect time for my party. I'm sure you won't have an excuse not to attend then, am I right Mr. Dana?" she said, smirking because she had just set a trap for Mr. Rose Dana.The trap was, she would keep tabs on the two so that she would set the party when she knows they aren't busy and as such the likelihood of them attending would be very high, even though they can just go ahead and decline if they want but she hoped on the contrary.She saw Mr. Rose Dana as someone who wouldn't want to bring tension in a relationship between him and her family so he wouldn't try to seem
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 128: DISLOYALTY
"Exactly what I just said Lady Maple!" Mr. Rose Dana said facing Patience before turning to face Anthony beside her and then gesturing at him "I don't see why this young fellow can't be my escort, it's all the same to me anyway" he smiled, acting his role perfectly.Patience not wanting Anthony to have anything to do with someone as influential as Mr. Rose Dana became irritated by this and the possibility of a relationship ever forming between the two was a fear she never knew she had until now. She thought he might try to sabotage all the hard work she's put into setting up the meeting with Mr. Rose Dana's master, having absolutely no idea that both Anthony and him were the same person.As such, she tried her best to put this situation down before it could go anywhere. This is because, in delicate discussions between two influential parties, every single moment is vital and a simple escort can mean the difference between closing a deal and completely destroying it, making both involv
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 129: RETURN TO THE AUTOMOBILE SHOP
All the caterers and the Maples looked at him, wondering what was wrong. Knowing well that he wouldn't like to get into the details of what went down during that very brief exchange between him and Anthony, Vlad pretended like he had tripped over something and got up immediately. He looked at all the caterers with an intimidating face"What are all of you looking at?! The guests are all gone so you can go to your stations, now!" He yelled then turned to the Maples, bowed his head to great them goodbye before walking off to go to his post. He kept clenching his fist and releasing it every few seconds as he thought about how stupid he had been.Patience who was watching him leave, thought that Vlad must have been angry about Anthony taking his place in the escort and so she didn't pry into his anger, saying "That stupid dog, I'll teach him a lesson once he gets back!" She sneered.Outside the mansion, Anthony and the rest had gotten to the cars. The two soldiers had returned to their tr
