Chapter 45: Fine Dining Part 1

December 21th, 2023. 

"Oh..back to my go-to place," Michael muttered under his breath as he looked out of the window, seeing the main entrance of the Newport Resorts Manila. It was six o'clock in the evening and the lights from the ceilings and the skyscrapers illuminated the surroundings, casting a warm glow over the bustling streets. The Christmas decorations added to the festive atmosphere, with colorful lights and ornaments adorning the trees and buildings. As he stepped out of the car, the cool December air hit him, truly, Christmas was drawing near.

The guards of the establishment gave him a nod of acknowledgment. He had been a patron to their casino and so they easily recognized them. He walked towards the entrance and the guard asked.

"You are going to the casino sir?"

Michael shook his head. "I'm heading to the second floor, where the restaurant is, I have a meeting."
