The Midnight Heir SLEDGEHAMMER!!
"But how?! Why are you closing all of a sudden?!" Anthony asked hurriedly, leaning forward so fast that he almost stood from his seat.Mr. Mow was surprised by how interested Anthony was being about this and he couldn't help but look at him in disbelief."I don't know if I should be telling a total stranger something that has to do with my private life, even if you're my last customer—" Mr. Mow said, smiling nervously to deflate how serious Anthony had made the topic. However, Anthony cut him off, rushing to hold his hands on the other side of the table."Don't worry about it Mr. Mow, you can tell me everything. If there's anything I can do to help then I will, so please" Mr. Mow looked at Anthony's deep piercing blue eyes and unwavering gaze and he couldn't stop himself from becoming teary-eyed when he saw how genuine Anthony was being.This was something he hadn't experienced in a very long time.Meanwhile, Mr. Mow's grandson was at the back, near the kitchen and he was peeking at t
The Midnight Heir RICE
"I'm confused, what's going on here?" Mr. Mow asked, looking over at Danny's bent body posture as he stood upright, taking the sledgehammer and dropping it on his shoulder."Danny, Sonny, Jim, what are you guys doing? Weren't we all laughing and having a good time together just some months ago? Were your situations that bad that you had to go work for a loan shark after you quit?" Mr. Mow asked, looking at the three of them, one after the other.He was utterly stumped and lost as to what was going on and if things weren't bad enough, those three looked at each other and then burst out laughing."He is a stupid old man, isn't he?!" Jim yelled as he kept on laughing."And here I was thinking that with age comes wisdom. I guess he wasn't aware when wisdom was being passed around to all the geezers" Sonny said with a chuckle."Guys, why are you insulting me for no reason? Please what's going on?" Mr. Mow asked, but then…Anthony who couldn't eat anymore because of the piece of broken tabl
The Midnight Heir LITTLE TONY
"You punk!" Danny yelled, glaring at Anthony with eyes as red as the blood coming out from the cut on his forearm.He tried to pull his hand free from Anthony's grip once more but couldn't, making him madder. He then spun his entire body in a clockwise direction, angling at the elbow of his arm which Anthony held, and rushing that hand to attack him.He went for a nose strike with that elbow, being an inch away from hitting Anthony in the face while he grinned with pride for having caught Anthony off guard.However, before he could hit, Anthony quickly evaded by bending backward and his elbow swept above Anthony's face. From how perfectly everything aligned for his attack, this was a move from Anthony Danny never expected would have happened."What—?!" The others exclaimed when they saw this as none of them expected Anthony to be this quick to dodge an almost impossible-to-dodge attack.But, regardless of Anthony's evasion, Danny wasn't done. He had another move planned out and so tak
The Midnight Heir RICHARD’S ESCAPE
After the fight, the entire interior of the restaurant was made a mess but no one cared to focus on that. They were too amped up with adrenaline to pay attention to what the consequences of the fight were and that's a destroyed restaurant."Why you—" Richard struggled to say, trying his hardest to stand up from the floor but slamming into the tables had delivered too much damage to his body that he couldn't do that just yet and so he collapsed with a heavy exhale.Panting through his mouth in hopes of catching his breath, suddenly Richard started to choke. He could feel something trying to clog his throat and so he rolled over then placed his hand under his mouth and coughed.To his surprise, what came out with the cough was blood and three of his teeth, all landing on his hand and he became furious."My teeth, my beautiful teeth! You destroyed my beautiful teeth!" Richard cried in a high-pitched voice, clenching his hand which had his dislodged teeth in it but he wasn't able to do an
The Midnight Heir BLOOD SPOUT
Anthony looked at him and shook his head in pity before rolling his eyes "Do whatever you want but when you're ready, fetch the keys and get the hell out of here. You've already done enough as it is" Anthony said with a tired voice and demeanor but then…From how far he was, Richard could feel Anthony get hostile instantly which was also evident in what he said next "Whatever you chose to do, let this be a warning that if you come back to mess with Mr. Mow or his restaurant again, you'll have me to contend with and I won't go easy on you a second time"Richard gulped when he heard this, knees trembling as he unconsciously stepped back to give more distance between him and Anthony.But, just when he thought Anthony was going to come at him for another attack, to his surprise Anthony turned around and left, going back into the restaurant."Did he seriously leave me with the keys?" Richard asked himself, heart beating very fast as he stretched his neck, staring at one of the two car keys
The Midnight Heir JADE CASINO BLOCKED
Danny touched the spot Anthony had kicked and beyond the blood spilling out from the wound, he could feel the crack sustained on his skull. It was when the tip of his fingers he used to check with pushed in deeper than they should have let him know of his fractured skull"What the hell—?" Danny said before becoming incredibly dizzy and was starting to find it challenging to concentrate when he tried getting up.Even though he had been sitting on the floor, his arm which supported his body weakened and he tripped backward. His body fell to the floor and laying there he mumbled, fatigued "What did you do to me?""Don't worry about that and let's just go Danny" Sonny said as he assisted a limping Jim over to Danny and the both of them helped Danny up on his feet, all trying to leave together."Everything's so blurry, where are you guys taking me?" In his confused state, Danny asked while Sonny and Jim were taking him outside the restaurant. Once outsid
The Midnight Heir ONE DAY HEADS-UP
Anthony grimaced in annoyance, looking down at the manager and how close he was "I'm going to need you to move back a bit" he said.From what Anthony said and the look he was giving, the manager realized how undignified he was acting and so he cleared his throat as he stood up and fixed his suit properly."Sorry about that, I don't know what came over me just now"Anthony pursed his lips, having an indifferent demeanor towards the manager and saying "Sure, whatever you say"Anthony took in a deep breath and exhaled, getting ready to address what he came here for but then, since the manager was in front of him, this was as good a time to do it as any and so he went ahead."I want to resign from my job as a dealer," Anthony said straight up and the manager turned around, facing the entrance of the casino, and took his first couple of steps towards it."Okay yeah Favorite, I know you want to apologize for not coming to work for a whole month but we'll address that issue later and appropr
The Midnight Heir UNIFORM
The manager chuckled, feeling proud that if anything was going to get Anthony interested in the job then it definitely had to be this because Mr. Rose Dana's retirement was the topic of discussion and controversy for today and there was nobody in Polaris who didn't see the broadcast about it.Anthony grunted, remembering what Miss Charlie said during his call earlier and now feeling a sense of relief that the suspicion he had since the manager said "celebrating someone's retirement" had been confirmed.In the end, he sighed."Hehe" Seeing Anthony's face made the manager smirk and chuckle with pride and his shoulder raised unconsciously."So, is that interesting enough for someone like you?" The manager said sarcastically.Anthony chuckled and took his first step towards the casino, saying to the manager once he walked past him "What are you waiting for? We have a retirement to help make the best of don't we?"Elated that Anthony was on board, even though he was clueless about the actu
