The Midnight Heir ANTHONY’S REQUEST
Everyone was left in disbelief as to what just happened. Julius being able to win his first round just when the game started was one thing but what Anthony did was completely different and more incredible. From their reactions, the people were more impressed by the feat Anthony just showcased over Julius' because Julius was just pure luck but Anthony's was entirely skill and talent based. The reason is that the longer you play the game of Double Memory, the harder is it to remember where the cards that were flipped but failed to pair are, hence the excitement of the game. However, for Anthony to remember exactly where all the cards are to flip and win them one after another was outstanding beyond belief. "How did he do that?!" With a confused expression, Candice asked herself and Annabelle looked at her with a proud smirk. "You wouldn't know this because all of you have always looked down on Anthony simply because of superficial things like money. But, when it comes to how incredi
The Midnight Heir ANTHONY’S ADAMANCE
"Huh?!" Everyone's jaws dropped when they hear what Anthony's request was. They couldn't believe that he dared to ask something like this of the Maples, especially to Patience."Are you mad?! How dare you ask us to do something like that?!" Carla yelled at Anthony, very angry that he had the balls to say that to them."This idiot thinks we're going to do something as embarrassing as that, let alone to someone like her, ridiculous!" Chloe gave looks of scorn to both Anthony and Annabelle.On the other hand, Annabelle was very confused about what was happening. As everyone grumbled and complained, she was asking Anthony why he would say something like that to her family members.However, from the look, he had alone made it clear to all of them that Anthony was very adamant about not going back on what he said.Julius laughed "You really have gone mad to think that we are going to lower ourselves and beg for forgiveness from someone else, especially someone younger than all of us. In you
The Midnight Heir CANCER TO THE BUSINESS WORLD
"I think that's enough Lady Maple, don't you think so too?" Mr. Rose Dana said with a huge smile on his face and the same with Rollow and Quinn who all pulled all the attention to themselves and they were able to stop her in her tracks."Mr. Rose Dana, what are you doing interrupting me?! Allow me to teach this animal a lesson about disrespecting his elders —" Patience said but then Mr. Rose Dana stopped her with a raised hand."I would Lady Maple but the fact that he is my representative and you dared to raise your hand to him is to an extension a great disrespect to me and my family I cannot allow that," Mr. Rose Dana said with a lot of dignity, appealing to the crowd who looked like they were understanding his point."What are you saying, Mr. Rose Dana?" Patience asked with a concerned grimace as she dropped her suspended hand."I'm saying, this was a game played fair and square between two parties representing both our families and yours lost. A bet was made at the start of the ga
The Midnight Heir GENEVIEVE’S PLEE
"I always knew that this girl had no respect especially after bringing this idiot to our family—" Elizabeth said, scowling at Annabelle as she raised her hand with the palms out, about to slap Annabelle in the face when from behind Annabelle, Anthony glared at Elizabeth with extreme levels of bloodlust to make even a grown man quiver.However, Elizabeth who seemed to have been drinking before being brought here and wasn't in her right mind didn't notice Anthony's glare in time so she went forward with the slap, about to hit Annabelle. To stop Elizabeth, Anthony moved his hand in an attempt to catch hers but then from behind, Vlad caught Elizabeth's hand before it could hit Annabelle, and then without meaning to he bowed his head to Anthony Vlad said "Sorry about that, I didn't know she was going to do—" then he paused after becoming aware of where he was and the people around him so he jolted and stood upright. Vlad looked to his left and his right and seeing all the confused stare
The Midnight Heir ANNABELLE STEPS FORWARD
"Listen, Annabelle, if you want to leave right now then just squeeze my hand and I will take you out of here this very moment…" Anthony said and she hurriedly grabbed his right forearm and was about to squeeze it but then Anthony continued."But, if you do that then how is anything ever going to change?" He asked and she jolted. Before she knew it his words were making her remember all the torment she's had to endure since her father did what he did and how worse it got when she was sent away."When are you going to stop yourselves from letting them treat you like a doormat and finally stand up for yourself? As I said, I'll take you away from here if that's what you truly desire but if you want to have a new start as the beautiful and confident woman I fell in love with then you have to start now"The moment he finished speaking, Anthony let go of her shoulders and then stepped away to give her the space she needed if she really wanted to leave. He wasn't going to stop her.However, e
The Midnight Heir MASTER ANTHONY’S INTEREST
Without moving his body, Anthony flicked his eyes to Mr. Rose Dana and then he closed his eyes for longer than normal which was some sort of signal between the two.This was evident in the way Mr. Rose Dana bowed his head while also smirking at Anthony discreetly then when he raised it, Mr. Rose Dana walked up to Annabelle.He said "It appears that the rest of your family has left you to go back home in their state of anger. For that I would like to apologize to you because I feel I had a hand in all of this and since it can't be helped, why don't I take you home, Miss Annabelle?" Mr. Rose Dana said to her while Miss Charlie and their security walked up and stood behind Mr. Rose Dana.Surprised to be getting such an offer from someone as important as Mr. Rose Dana, Annabelle looked at Anthony with bewildered eyes, unsure of what she should do."Anthony, what should I—" she asked but Anthony cut her off with his smile.He placed one hand on her shoulder and said "Don't worry about anyt
The Midnight Heir ANNABELLE’S POWERFUL QUESTION
"Huh?!" All the Maples exclaimed with their jaws dropped and amongst them, Annabelle was the most shocked.“Pardon me Mr. Rose Dana but I don’t think I heard you correctly.” Patience said as she acted like she was clearing her ears “Am I mistaken or did I just hear you say that your Master Anthony is interested in—“Mr. Rose Dana quickly interrupted Patience and said again “It’s shocking but you all heard me right. My master has taken a liking to your granddaughter, Miss Annabelle,” he said before turning away from Annabelle to face the rest of the Maple family members.Chloe frowned and said heatedly “But how?! I was looking consistently before we left, hoping that I would catch a glimpse of him but I didn’t see anyone at the casino who looked like they could be Master Anthony Midnight so how or when did he have the time to come to liking that who—“Again, being very proactive in his duties and he could tell just what word she was about to use, Vlad quickly covered Chloe’s mouth to P
The Midnight Heir YESTERDAY
Annabelle did her best to put all her scattered thoughts together while she talked at the same time. This was because she didn't have enough time to think about it to the fullest and the urgency of Mr. Rose Dana leaving made her to just blurt out whatever was on her mind at the time.So far she was doing fine."I'm sure he is because that's the only way all of this can make any sense," she said, looking down and fidgeting as she collected her thoughts"My husband is the only Anthony I can think of that you talked to in the casino and there was no time available for your master if he was someone else to get to know me to then develop any form of interest in me"As Annabelle spoke, Mr. Rose Dana and Miss Charlie stared at her with surprised looks on their faces. They never thought that they would be having this type of confrontation today."There's also what Anthony said about protecting me from the family and he's the one who told me to come home with you and now you're telling the fam
