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
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 81: ANTHONY’S CALM THREATS
"Young Master, I think we should go see a doctor to find out if you're really okay or not. Maybe rest a little bit to get your strength back before we move forward" Franklin advised, looking concerned for Anthony's health but his words fell on deaf ears as Anthony kept walking in front of him until they got to the sliding entrance doors of the hospital, waiting for them to open. "Don't worry about me, I'm fine. She's been waiting longer than I have so what could a couple more minutes be?" Anthony said and then the doors open, blasting their faces with the usual hospital smell. Straight to the reason for calling Franklin here in the first place, Anthony walked up to the counter the minute he stepped into the building and the moment he got there, the nurse, same as the one from this morning, was so busy she didn't notice all the stares thrown at him until now and was surprised to see him standing in front of her. "Wait, it's you again!" She exclaimed, getting flashbacks of what happen
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 82: COLLAPSE
With everything on this end taken care of, Anthony left the rest in Franklin's capable hands while he went off to go see Amanda in her room. One of the bodyguards had wanted to follow him but he declined because he wanted to go by himself but Franklin insisted, using his condition as the reason why he shouldn't be alone. So, not wanting to draw things out longer than it should be Anthony agreed then left. Meanwhile, the remaining two bodyguards also split with one waiting at the counter for everyone to return while Franklin and the last bodyguard followed nurse Juliet to the accounts department of the hospital to make the payment. No matter the figure they called it's to be expected that Franklin was able to cover it. Once in front of Amanda's room Anthony stood there for some seconds, nervous to go in while looking the way that he does but also because he knew that he could feel his consciousness slipping and barely being able to grab on to it, hoping to hold out long enough before
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 83: MASTER ANTHONY
Rushing to Anthony's unconscious body, first thing Franklin did was to wrap his arms around him while the three bodyguards bursted in as well, surrounding the two on the floor, whereas nurse Juliet stayed behind, outside the door, looking stumped at the sight "What are you doing, go get some help!" Franklin yelled at her with furious eyes, jolting her back to her senses before she ran to go get a doctor and other nurses to come help "Don't worry Young Master, help is on its way" Franklin tried to comfort Anthony, holding his upper body up in a way that ensures his neck and head was protected and not bent uncomfortably. """What should we do boss?""" The bodyguards offered their assistance but there was nothing they could do so Franklin declined, glaring specifically at the one who was outside the door and was supposed to protect Anthony and the bodyguard looking guilty about not being able to do his job as was expected but Franklin let it go and they all waited for help to come.
