The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 96: MIDNIGHT CURSE
HE tiredly dropped his head, sighing in the process “Where did you get your manners from? There’s a particular timeline to a story so don’t go interrupting or rushing the end plot, just lemme ride until I finish, then you can ask your questions.” He said, sneering at Anthony then went back to sitting upright but his legs remained crossed.“As I was saying, Luke Midnight did disgusting and evil things with the power he had found. I guess being the number one out of all seven progenitor families went to his head and using his power, the same one you’ve inherited but haven’t gotten to the level that he had he manipulated cities, countries, and the rest into chaos. Ever wondered why wars start like they come out of nowhere? Hitler and the rest, do you think all those things just happen out of nowhere?” HE asked, waiting on Anthony’s reply.Hearing the contents of the story HE had just said, Anthony ended up having a questioning stare and a hint of disbelief which influenced the next thing
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 97: JASON’S TRIAL
A couple days later, inside one of the Polaris city judiciary courts' courtrooms, Jason was standing trial on charges of violence, possession, and firing of a dangerous firearm, endangering the public, minors especially as well as lying to the police and framing someone else for all said crimes.However, because the person he tried to frame, Anthony, wasn’t here to testify and give his accounts of the incident, they had no choice but to drop that charge and went to judge the rest offenses which was plenty enough.While Jason sat in the defendant's box, wearing the detention uniform and looking pitiable to everyone else in the audience, his rapidly blinking eyes couldn’t stop being fixed on one particular spot in the courtroom. He was staring at a man wearing a very expensive trench coat, leather gloves, a hat that covered most of his face and having an imposing presence to the point that the nearest audience had to sit at least a couple feet away from him, on all sides.This mysterious
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 98: HUNT FOR A SILVER FUR FOX
The judge saw that the way Jason kept scrolling his neck to the right ever so slightly looked like he wanted to turn around, but then, the judge also took his eyes and glared at a particular group of people who were seated and had acted as the eyewitnesses to the case, all together on the third row. This included the manager of The Nostalgia cinema, Todd as well as Corner who had all given their accounts and were just waiting for the verdict to be said, same as everyone. So, noticing them the judge thought that those were the ones Jason was stopping himself from looking at, an assumption made because two out of those three used to be his friends as claimed by the police but right now, none of them saw themselves as being that. Unknown to the judge, there was only one person in the entire courtroom that kept on drawing Jason's attention, up to the point that he couldn’t even focus on his trial and it was none other than the mysterious man wearing a trench coat whose eyes were fixed on
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 99: MURRAY THE SONG BIRD
Because of the trial and having to act as eyewitnesses Todd, Corner, and the Nostalgia cinema’s manager who was named Murray had started to hit it off and become somewhat friendly with each other which isn’t hard to believe because of the age difference between them wasn’t that much, Murray being twenty-one and both teenage boys being seventeen about to turn eighteen. Todd and Corner didn’t have any friends at school and became friends themselves thanks to Jason bringing them together but in truth, they were more like his lackeys and had gotten tired of being that, hence the retaliation. Murray was socially awkward and focused on work so that he could rise to the position of manager quickly and so he didn’t have time or the skills to make friends. These two were the closest thing to friends that he could get and he was happy that the unfortunate situation of a cinema shooting brought them this close. He had also formed a friendly relationship with Tina and Jerry so he had no reason n
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 100: TESSA’S UNEXPECTED ENCOUNTER
A couple days after Jason's trial and incarceration, at the late hours of the evening in Neon Grove, Tessa was standing on her usual spot and beside her was the same Night walker who had asked if she knew Anthony the day he came to lodge in the Untitled Hotel.Today was another slow day so no clients were popping out yet and the two of them used a small amount of their time in their hands to stare at the last floor of the Untitled Hotel, at Anthony's room 28 specifically but just like the last couple of days that room has not been lit, meaning that the entire building was vacant."It's been a whole weak since he left and he still hasn't returned yet" Tessa mumbled, looking oddly down about Anthony disappearance.The other lady named Cortney turned to her while giving a skeptical stare "What's up with this strange interest in the Silver hair? Weren't you the one who advised me not to get involved with him because he looked broke, so what happened now?" She scrunched her face.Feeling a
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 101: CLONE SAGA
Back at The Oat Stone Manor, Anthony had been in the same spot, shackled for a whole week now. Most of the time, the tightness of his shackles would be greatly reduced and he would actually be on the floor, resting. Only when HE needs to extract another syringe of Anthony’s blood would the chains be tightened again and he be forced to get into that uncomfortable position so that he wouldn’t be able to defend himself.Because of this resting periods, his left hand had gotten a good amount of time it needs to heal and was now about halfway there to complete healing. Also, another time when he’s forced to be in that uncomfortable position with both arms raised and made to be on his toes is when he’s getting washed, just like he is right now.“I can’t even tell what time it is because there’s no windows in here but I’m guessing it’s got to be hitting a week now” Anthony monologued while the white haired girl bathe him which means he was butt naked in front of both her and HE right now.HE
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 102: THE FINAL DAY
Another week went by and all Anthony could think of was how fast the time was running, especially now that his life is on the line. Since the start of the second week of his kidnapping and blood withdrawal, HE had been showing up not as frequently as the first week and this was because the moment the truth was told to Anthony, there was nothing more interesting for HE to by doing sticking around. For the most part, the taking of Anthony’s blood had become the job of the girl with white hair and she both bathe him and gave him food to eat. Also, she could stop him if he tries to do anything counter productive for them like fight back or try to escape which he did try multiple times the first week but was unsuccessful. So now, Anthony has been seeing more of her then HE and he’s curiosity on her kept increasing. At this moment, she had just taken the plate he had eaten from and wanted to walk out when he spoke to her for the first time since his kidnapping. Usually, Anthony only spoke
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 103: HER FIRST WORDS
Because she’s the one who has been in charge of watching and taking care of Anthony up until this point, the keys to his shackles had been inside the left chest pocket of the white gown she had been wearing since the first day. She had many of that same dress and for reasons best known to her, she only wore them and nothing else.Even her feet were bare but no matter how long or what the texture of the ground is like she’s been walking around that way and there hasn’t been a single injury or blister made on them. Her skin was very tough.She reached into the pocket and brought out the key while at the same time going ahead to lower Anthony so that she could actually reach the shackles locked around his wrists, meanwhile, seeing this happening right in front of his eyes, HE was dumbfounded."Wait a minute, did his power just evolve like his grandfather’s and he's using it to control he— No, that's not possible! Even if the reason is different, just like Franklin both of our powers shou

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
