The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 73: THE TRUTH ABOUT ANNABELLE
Julius grabbed the vest from his person and dropped it on the table, in front of his empty plate "And who says you can just quit without my permission? You're going to be fired today but don't think that means you get the opportunity to twist it into a resignation, I won't allow that" he said which was when Anthony who had taken the first step to leave looked ahead and saw the door get blocked by two bodyguards which appeared to belong to Julius, meaning that Anthony was trapped until Julius says that he isn't. "Really?" Anthony stopped then rolled his eyes "I'm sure the manager here agrees with me that your resignation is declined and since you're still on the job then do your work and clean this up" Julius said then extended his hand out which had an empty wine glass in it and Casey rushed to fill it with the wine she had with her, for him. Once filled he brought it closer, stirred it, smelled it, tasted it then poured it on the table next to where he dropped Anthony's vest "No—
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 74: ANTHONY GOES BERSERK
Enraged, wanting to get closer and physical to the person who made him so, Anthony reached underneath the table and single-handedly tossed it to the side. Everyone who watched this feat were in awe as usually a table of that quality gets arranged by two people who're the same size as Anthony or one person who's very big and muscular like Marilyn who's fat rather than muscular. However, thinking back this isn't the first time Anthony had displayed feats of strength that's beyond what he should normally be capable of, he did the same thing when he was trying to be stopped by the two paramedics but they couldn't do anything against his strength. Julius' bodyguards who were by the door and were facing this way were also shocked when they saw Anthony get extremely aggressive. This translated to them that their client was in danger, so as the table went crashing into the one beside it, both bodyguards rushed inside, wanting to get to Anthony in time before he does something to Julius.

"There you are!" Anthony exclaimed, walking to the base of the stairs to wait for Patience while she looked down at him with disdain filled eyes, strutting her way down the stairs "I'm here to—"Before he could even say his reason for being there Patience stopped him with a hand gesture "I know why you're here, don't patronize my intelligence, boy" she said before finally getting to the bottom to stare at him right in the eyes "Julius told me but then said he'll be here, waiting to return a favor to you once you arrive but I'm surprised you can before him"She paid intent attention to all the wounds Anthony had from head to toe before scoffing at him. He looked pathetic and inelegant in her eyes and she was sure letting him know that by how she acts.Anthony shrugged "I know shortcuts""You do now, do you? I guess dogs are good at finding their ways through alleyways and gutters with the rest of their rabies infested pack, so it's no surprise" she rolled her eyes"So, since you know e
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 76: A BET
"How would they also take it finding out that the reason you people were able to hide the truth is because you sold your eldest granddaughter into marrying the head of the Finance Regulation Board so that he keeps your shameful secret out of public records?" At the end he went back to stand where he used to be, in front of her"I'll only say this once, tell me where my wife is or else I go public with all of this" he tilted his head right Patience who had clenched her hand "Is that a threat?" She asked."Yes it is and don't take it lightly because I always mean what I say"Having thought for long enough, she sighed, releasing her clenched fist after getting calm "I always knew you were an ungrateful dog who'll bite the hand that feeds him when the time comes, but it looks like you've forgotten who the owner of the playground is" she frowned He grimaced "What's that supposed to me—" he was cut short again"Guards, come here and get this dog, seems he hasn't been taught enough lessons
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 77: A CALL TO CHANGE LIVES
"What?" He was shocked by all she said and filled with disbelief but since his power was still active he saw that it was true. "All I have to do is find her and everything is settled?" "Indeed, but if you fail then the bet is off and I promise you that the next time you see her again, she'll be getting married to someone of my choosing, so if I were you I would better hurry, thirty days isn't a long time" she smiled evilly. In her mind there was no way he could ever find Annabelle and she was willing to stake her pride in that. His injuries alone should take half of the days he had to find her to heal and once healed he'll have to search the entire world for her and there's no way he could possibly do that, Patience thought. 'No, thirty days is long enough, if I can just look deeper into her thought and find out where exactly she is then I'll be able to get to Annabelle in no time, just have to go dee— got something!' He thought, having managed to only get a name that's related to A
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 78: FRANKLIN DISOBEYING THE LAST ORDER
Beaten, broken in all sense of the word and bloodied up, Anthony used all the strength he could muster at the moment to get himself back on his feet. He reached behind him, grabbed and was pulling his entire weight with one hand and help from the bars that made the Maple Mansion gate, meanwhile, the other held the phone to his ear which captured all the grunts and groans he muttered that caused Franklin on the other end of the line to get extremely concerned for his well-being. ["Young Master, what's wrong, did something happen to you?! Tell me exactly what happened and I'll make sure I fix any inconvenience you have!"] Franklin panicked with his voice picking up a lot of aggression and hostility in it. He could already imagine what Anthony's current state was and it enraged him to his core. Wherever he was currently and angry at what he was hearing through the phone, Franklin bashed something in his rage, most likely with his fist and Anthony was surprised enough by the sound to pau
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 79: FRANKLIN APPEARS WITH A CONVOY
"What is it, did I say something wrong?" The driver asked, scratching the back of his head Anthony was looking at him in wonder for an awkward amount of time before he too smiled, lowering and shaking his head before taking his hand out of his pocket which he had planned to get the transport fare from. He chuckled "No it's nothing, for a moment I forgot that there are still some decent people out in the world. Anyway, thanks for the lift, I'll be leaving now"Anthony came out, still pain ridden, staggering his way towards the hospital while the driver watched him from inside the car before igniting the engine to leave."Hmm, who would have thought that even in a prestigious neighborhood, close to where all those rich bastards leave some people still get targeted by robbers. Hmm, well now that I say it out loud, I guess those places makes for the best targets since your chance of getting a rich person is high. Better be careful where I start driving to cause nowhere seems safe anymore
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 80: PARAMEDICS SPARED
Both paramedics, surprised and felt like they've just entered a very hot situation, seeing all the gigantic men that surrounded them from both sides and were looking down at them like they were food to be devoured both started to smile nervously, raising their hands in surrender and stepping back from Anthony and Franklin in front of them to try and get away. However, they weren't able to get more than two steps back because the remaining bodyguards from the other jeeps had come and blocked their way. So, as they looked up to see the figures whose bodies alone blocked the sun from shining on them and as a result surrounding where they stood with shadows, all they saw were the terrifying looks that the men who had scars on their faces had towards them. They both dropped their arms when it got so weak from fear that they could no longer keep them up, eyelids blinking rapidly and tears about to fall down their eyes. "I promised my Young Master that I would make whoever did this to him

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?

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
