The Midnight Heir HOW MANY MEALS CAN A MILLION DOLLARS BUY?
“Why?” Anthony asked, grimacing while staring at the half-wrapped package on the bed.“It’s for what you—“ Tessa said then frowned when she saw the face Anthony was making toward her gift. Getting annoyed because of that, she slapped his shoulder“Will you just accept your gift and stop complaining? You should be happy I’m doing this at all because I don’t normally do this for anyone. You should even be thanking me for being thoughtful toward you”Tessa scoffed, folded her arms on each other, and looked the other way.Discreetly, Joseph tugged on Anthony’s suit sleeve, pulling his attention to look down at him.Joseph whispered “The only person sis has ever bought a gift for is her first boyfriend back when we still lived with our parents. Doing this must be a big deal for her so please just accept it”Anthony looked at Josephine and she had the same expression Joseph was making, imploring that he accepts the gift since Tessa went through all the trouble of going out to buy it when sh
The Midnight Heir GRAND BLUE STAFF VS MARILYN
The next day, Marilyn came to work very early to get something important from her office.She didn’t want to be interrupted by or seen by anyone which is why she came when the restaurant is normally still closed. However, the moment she walked through the restaurant’s entrance door, to her surprise, all the staff were already there.They had been waiting for her specifically all through the night and it was evident in how messy they looked. None of them had even brushed their teeth or taken their bath yet.They were all frowning when they saw her come in and Marilyn stopped to look at all of them with disgust."What are all of you doing?!” She said then observed them properly.Their uniforms were wrinkled and had some stains on the white part. Their shoes are dirty and dusty from what they did yesterday. Their hair wasn’t brushed and their faces were very oily.There was also a particular musk in the air that she found disgusting.“Did all of you really come to work looking like that?
The Midnight Heir MARILYN VS POLICE SQUAD
“There he is!” Owen said as he gestured at Anthony standing by the door “So young man, are you finally going to explain to me why I’m here in the first place?”Anthony took in a deep breath, sighed as he stuffed his hands into his pockets, and said “I would but I’ll rather have them do it”His words confused everyone who heard it at first but in less than a second it made sense when a few police cars came parking in front of the restaurant.“What’s going on here?” Owen asked “Are those the police? What are they doing here?”“Is there an emergency or what?” Casey asked Michael as nobody called the police but here they are.Before anyone could answer any of the questions asked, rushing into the building was a squad of police officers dressed in protective gear who also had their shields and teaser guns with them.“Miss Marilyn Abali, you’re under arrest for multiple counts of sexual assault, rape, kidnapping, drugging and abuse of minors, blackmail and other offenses to be mentioned onc
The Midnight Heir UNDER ARREST 2
Anthony knew that if Marilyn gets past him then she was basically free to escape. He was the only thing standing between her and freedom and when she dove at him with all her might, he stood his ground.Marilyn came like a spear, about to pierce his stomach but Anthony was quick, he caught her hand then used her momentum to spin her around and then throw her back at the officers who were running towards him.He didn’t account for just how heavy Marilyn was that while spinning it went out of control a little. When he let go to toss her back, he sprained his ankle a bit and fell on the floor.Acting quickly he caught himself mid-fall.Anthony managed to balance on one knee while Marilyn flew and crashed into the officers who tried using their shields to prevent any damage from happening to them.“Don’t let her get up!” The Head Police Officer yelled from the floor and then some of the other officers jumped on Marilyn to subdue her.Regardless of all that was being done to her, Marilyn s
The Midnight Heir NEW MANAGER
"New manager? What are you talking about Favorite?!" Michael asked, pulling Anthony by the shoulder so that he would turn and face him."After everything we've been through, your first thought is finding a new manager?!""Why not?" Anthony asked, staring right into Michael's eyes."But- but—" Michael mumbled, not having a reason to support his stance."This is a business after all and every business needs a manager to flow properly. Not every manager is going to be like Marilyn" Anthony said."How do you know that?" Casey asked, "I know I was late to the party but how can you trust and be so nonchalant about this after everything that has happened, Favorite?"Anthony turned to her and said "Because I trust that the next manager would do better. I'm sure of that"Both Michael and Casey looked at each other then they looked at Anthony."I had no idea what was really going on here all these months because Marilyn had been lying to me the whole time but I understand where this young man i
The Midnight Heir GEM FEST
Outside the restaurant, Anthony just opened the back passenger’s seat door to the Jeep Owen was driven here in for the man to get inside and he was now closing it.Standing outside with Anthony were two of the security men provided for Owen. These same security men had offered to do what Anthony was doing but Anthony had refused.The vehicle and security detail had been provided by Mr. Rose Dana and as such, they knew exactly who Anthony was.All of them felt uncomfortable watching Anthony do what he was doing right now, opening the door for someone not as powerful or influential as he was but Anthony didn’t care.“These men will take you straight to the Mercury Hotel and they’ve been given access to take you to your room. If there’s anything you need while staying in my city, maybe some entertainment then just ask any of them and they will provide you with it” Anthony said to Owen through the rolled-down window.Owen looked at Anthony with an astonished gaze.“You call this your city
The Midnight Heir ANTHONY VS SAUL
The days went by really fast and not long after agreeing to go to the Gem Fest with Annabelle, Anthony rented a place for Tessa and her siblings like he said he would.They moved out of his room in the Untitled Hotel and during that period, Anthony started heading talks about the Gem Fest and how people couldn’t wait to go.It was now that he was interested in it that he started hearing about it more and more.The next day after Tessa moved out was the day of the Gem Fest and Anthony had just gotten dressed to start heading out. He was going to go pick up Annabelle at her family’s estate then he would drive the both of them to the festival.Just as he was about to walk to the door, his phone rang and it was a call from Annabelle when he checked.He wasted no time in answering it.[“Anthony, there’s something I have to do so I’ll be a few minutes late. Can you meet me at the festival instead of coming to pick me up?”] Annabelle asked.“I was just about to head out but sure. Just be saf
The Midnight Heir TWIN BATONS
“Huh?!” Saul jolted and exclaimed when he couldn’t lift Anthony’s body from the ground then he hurriedly turned to face Anthony so he can find out why and maybe change tactics.At this point, because Anthony foiled his move, Saul was now the one in the open and Anthony didn’t fail to take advantage of that.As Saul was turning to face him so that he could try the same move again, Anthony jumped and kicked Saul in the chest with both feet.Both of them went flying in the opposite direction and while Anthony landed on his back on the floor, Saul’s back was slammed into the same corridor wall he had planned to slam Anthony into.Both of them knew that the fight wasn’t over so there was no time to rest.Anthony sprang back to his feet but just as he landed on both legs, Saul who had already taken off his trench coat threw it at Anthony, trying to use it to cover his view.“Fuck!” Anthony exclaimed because he knew that if that trench coat lands on him then he automatically loses.
