The Midnight Heir RIPPED BUTTON
Patience looked at her for a few seconds before smacking her tongue and rolling her eyes, saying "You better be fast with it. If your future suitor finally comes in and you aren't here by my side then I'll come into that restroom and drag you out myself, got it?!"Even though it wasn't what she wanted, the fact that she could escape for a few minutes made Annabelle smile from ear to ear, saying "Thank you grandmother" and then she left for the restroom.Elated that their actions bore the fruit they wanted, Chloe and Carla faced each other, smirking and giving each other an energetic high five but seeing it annoyed Patience."What do you two think you're doing? How very undignified." She huffed then looked at Mr. Quinn and Rollo who were still with Mr. Rose Dana before she continued "It's still your job to get with the two top families in the hierarchy, so act accordingly"Getting reprimanded by Patience made the two girls get their acts together so they cleared their throats and fixed
The Midnight Heir RUSHING SINK WATER
Anthony waited impatiently for Annabelle to give him the name of her assaulters but she refrained. Instead, she sniffled and brushed under her nose with her wrist, causing him to get more furious."Why won't you tell me who did this—" he asked then paused with widened eyes when he thought about it and came to an educated guess of who must have hurt her.He knew it had to be a Maple that did it because no one else would have the audacity to touch her. So, using the process of elimination, Patience wouldn't want a blemish on Annabelle because of her plans while Candice who is Patience's little protégé would do exactly like her grandmother which leaves Julius and the twins.Julius wouldn't be this sinister because a twisted ear is something someone with a personal gripe would think of doing so that just leaves Chloe and Carla who he's already seen to have hurt Annabelle the day before."It's those Gemini witches wasn't it?!" Anthony said then he watched Annabelle's reaction which was all
The Midnight Heir THE HIERARCHY
"I'm right to assume that you're the manager of this here casino right?" Patience asked the manager just as he was about to make his announcement to the guests."Yes, Lady Maple! Pardon me but I'll get right with you in a second, Lady Maple. Once I'm done with what I'm about to do I'll be free to answer any questions you might—" The manager said but Patience who could care less about his announcement interrupted him by raising her hand to shoulder level."Fantastic, well I wanted to ask you why you were speaking with that Silver-haired bastard earlier. You know what, it doesn't matter 'cause I want you to throw him out of here this instant" she said and the manager looked at her skeptically."Silver-haired? Wait, are you talking about Favorite?" The manager asked and Patience grimaced with confusion.She then rolled her eyes "Look, I don't care what name you people call him or if he's everyone's favorite employee here, I want him fired this minute and I won't ask again" Patience gave
The Midnight Heir PROPOSAL
At another side of the casino, Julius who grinned from ear to ear rubbed his palms excitedly as he looked around for what game he wanted to partake in."I guess I'll go with this one—" Julius said but just before he could finish, Patience called his name as she walked up to him with all his sisters.Julius jolted, immediately getting guilty because he stopped doing what she had asked him to do earlier.Julius turned to her robotically and with a guilty smile said "Umm grandmother, I was just on my way to scout for Mr. Rose Dana's Master Anthony. He should be on his way here—"Patience cut him off with a hand gesture for him to shut up. She said "Don't you dare lie to me. I already know you were distracted and forgot what your mission was"Caught red-handed, Julius started scratching the back of his head which made Patience and Candice roll their eyes while the twins looked lost as they weren't used to being in a casino. They were bored."Always acting like undignified whenever you get
The Midnight Heir PRELIMINARY GAME
All the VIPs creased their foreheads."What proposal can that be Lady Maple?" Rollo inquired after he puffed a lung full of smoke.Patience raised her hand over Julius' neck, dropping it on the shoulder farthest from her then she pulled him closer so that they can all focus on him."Since there's a missing space that should rightfully belong to my husband, a Maple, I was thinking that my grandson who is a very proficient gambler takes his place. I assure you that he will give a very interesting gameplay. So, what do you all say?"All the VIPs looked at each other once Patience finished speaking and just from their faces, it was obvious that they all had the same mentality toward the proposal."Well Lady Maple, I don't see how that is an appropriate proposal considering how young the lad is when compared to the rest of us." Quinn said to Patience before focusing on Julius and saying "Maybe the lad will have a more enjoyable night gambling with those his age rather than old folks like
The Midnight Heir CARDS DEALT
"Haha!" Julius exclaimed in victory as he stretched from his chair, wrapping his arms around the pile of betting chips in the center of the poker table, and then pulled everything to his side of the table. As he was doing that, at each side of the same poker table were the grandchildren of the VIPs who were all throwing what remains of their poker cards on the table while rolling their eyes and sighing in defeat. "Five straight games and still undefeated!" Julius grinned as he turned to Patience who looked at him proudly. As per the rules of the preliminary, each player has an equal but limited amount of chips to bet with and they were to play five rounds of poker to bring forth a winner. Three straight wins result in an automatic victory for that player and though Julius got that within the first three rounds they played, the look Patience had when he did pressured him to continue playing. As such he refused to stop there. They would play two more rounds in which he also came out
The Midnight Heir KIDS NEVER CHOOSE TO LEARN
"What do you think you're doing boy? Do you wish to embarrass me?!" Patience asked aggressively the moment she leaned closer to Julius' ear and whispered."I had no other choice grandmother, look," Julius said then showed her his cards which she looked at but unlike Julius, her poker face was impeccable."Hmm" Patience grunted but before she could say anything else, from the opposite side of the table…"That's inappropriate behavior don't you think so Lady Maple?" Mr. Rose Dana said with a smirk and Patience graciously stood upright and then smiled back at him."Your grandson is the one who challenged his elders after it was you who suggested it. So, wouldn't it be best to let him handle actually playing the game himself instead of hovering over his every move, Lady Maple?" Mr. Rose Dana asked and then told Miss Charlie to push the number of chips he wanted to bet with and she did."Pardon my intrusion, Mr. Rose Dana, I just wanted to give my grandson some encouraging words but now th
The Midnight Heir JULIUS’ ACCUSATION
"Looks like we have our winner and I can't say I'm surprised," Rollo said with a shrug then he puffed and exhaled a lung full of smoke into the air while the other VIPs smirked and nodded proudly at Mr. Rose Dana's victory. "Who would have thought, an actual Royal Flush? A Straight flush is one thing but I don't think I've ever seen a Royal flush more than once before this in all my decades of playing this game. That's why I love gambling!" Quinn exclaimed enthusiastically then chuckled as he clapped for Mr. Rose Dana. He was extremely impressed by the way the game had ended and there was nothing that could happen next that would top that feeling. At least that's what he thought. Completely shocked by his utter defeat, Julius dropped to his knees, jaw dropped as he mumbled "Huh?" while he watched everyone congratulate Mr. Rose Dana. Miss Charlie didn't waste any time seeking the assistance of one of their security men who stood with the rest behind Mr. Rose Dana and the both of the
