The Midnight Heir INVITE FOR DRINKS
After she finished talking, she grinned and toppled the pen on the desk, implying more about what she meant."I don't know, something tells me they'll be just fine. I'm sure there'll be other more profitable jobs lining up to hire them if they leave this dump so they should be good" Anthony responded with a smirk.With his and Mr. Rose Dana's influence, getting Michael and Casey a job in one of their companies should be a walk in the park so her threat didn't faze him the slightest.Marilyn shrugged "I guess you're right but looking at those two, we both know they're soft. They're not like you, resilient and tough and that's a fact. How do you think they would take it if a scandalous rumor about them spring out of nowhere? Not everyone can handle that level of stress and they might just end up killing themselves because of it"She flicked the toppled pen with her finger and it flew to the wall in front of her, breaking into two pieces and landing on the floor. She was giving an underl
The Midnight Heir MR. MOW
Having just one more stop to make in his retirement rounds, Anthony was in his motorcycle driving to the Jade Casino when the fact that he hadn't eaten yet struck him.It happened by his stomach growling just as loud as the vrooming of the motorcycle."Now is no time for food. I should just get this done and over with before worrying about—" Anthony said then quickly shut his mouth when something he unintentionally saw through the corner of his eyes caught his attention."Wait, it's that place!" Anthony said, carelessly taking his eyes off the road ahead of him and staring at a building he just drove past.The drivers behind him started to honk their horns when they saw that he wasn't paying attention to the very dangerous road.The one immediately behind him yelled, "Hey you maniac, keep your eyes on the road before you kill yourself!"Regardless of how much and hard they tried to gain his attention, Anthony was too focused on that building and when he drove beyond being able to see
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
