Mrs. Moore stiffened when she saw Moses and Yuri.

"Mr. Potters," Mrs. Moore stood up, a nervous smile on her face. "What a surprise. You didn't tell me you were coming."

Yuri glanced at Mrs. Hargrove who began shaking like a dry leaf.

Mrs. Hargrove recognized Yuri but she was too afraid to call her out.

Moses walked up to Mrs. Moore and pointed his finger in her face. "You've better have a good explanation for what you and all the staff in this room did to my son."

Mrs. Moore tried to feign ignorance. "What are you talking about, Mr. Potters. We didn't do anything to your son."

Moses eyes narrowed. "So you're going to lie about it, huh? I'm going to give you one last chance to admit what you did to my son."

"Or what?" Mrs. Moore asked, challenging Moses. "What are you going to do about it?"

Mrs. Moore didn't have any plans to continue troubling Benjamin but there was no way in hell she would allow an Uber driver to walk over her.

Yuri stepped forward, her eyes turning icy. "If yo

"What is it this time, Emily? Another trivial school matter?"Emily's face flushed with anger. "Trivial? Mrs. Moore walked into our class today and apologized to Benjamin Potters! In front of everyone!" Mrs. Washington raised an eyebrow. "Apologized? Whatever for?" "Yesterday, the teachers were acting kind of mean towards Benjamin," Emily recounted. "We all enjoyed watching him suffer but today, Mrs. Moore apologized about the unfair treatment he received yesterday."It didn't take Mrs. Washington a second to realized Mrs. Moore might have ordered the teachers to treat Benjamin like crap inorder to appease her."It was humiliating for the rest of us!"

    Moses knew about Prince Harry's attempts to uncover the mysterious landlord of the New Haven estate. Moses chose not to accept Prince Harry's dinner invitations because he wanted to avoid the spotlight, and he felt that Prince Harry was inviting him as a rival rather than as a friend. Having bought New Haven estate, Moses had shaken the balance of power which humbled Prince Harry. And Prince Harry was a prideful man with a bruised ego. Now that Prince Harry was gunning for the mysterious landlord, Moses couldn't help but feel amused.

    No one, since the day he was born had anyone ever spoken to Prince Harry the way Moses just did. Prince Harry couldn't believe his ears. "Did you just threatened me?"Moses eyes narrowed. "That wasn't a threat. It was simply a warning. Stay away from my family and I'll have no trouble with you."Before Prince Harry could respond, Moses drove off into the busy road. Prince Harry watched Moses leave, his head boiling. "How dare that poor Uber driver?" Prince Harry gritted his teeth. "I'll make you beg on your knees, you little worm."Prince Harry made an immediate call, giving out orders to his goons. "Take away Moses Potters child. I don't care what happens to the mother.

He has connections with powerful legal entities, and he is prepared to act.”Harry’s face darkened, his teeth grinding in frustration. “Then tell me who this landlord is,” he demanded. “I want a name.”There was a brief pause on the other end. “I’m afraid I cannot reveal that information, Your Highness,” Harold said finally.“You will tell me!” Harry barked. “Or I’ll make sure the Estate Board regrets this!”“I’m sorry, Your Highness, but the landlord has instructed us to keep his identity confidential. Have a good day.” With that, Harold ended the call.Harry stared at the phone in his hand, his chest heaving with barely-contained rage.

The bald agent from earlier entered with a file under his arm and a cold expression written all over his face.“I'm agent Harper,” the bald agent threw the file onto the table. “I've dug through your file. A millionaire disguised as an Uber driver. Quite suspicious, don't you think?”Moses leaned back slightly, tilting his head. “I never imagined people would address me as a millionaire but thanks for the compliment.”Harper's lips curled into a mocking smile. “Compliment, huh? You sound very confident and calm for a man with federal charges. What's the story you’re sticking with?

Even as a billionaire, Bernie Silverman knew he was no match for Moses kind of wealth and power. "I'm shocked to hear this," Bernie said, taking a step back. "Why did you reveal yourself to me?"Moses smirked. "Well, first of all, I like you, Bernie. You're a good man but you're stupid. No offense, but with all that money in your bank account, you still can't control your women."Bernie was convinced Moses was the landlord. Only a powerful person could speak to him that way without any hint of fear. Moses went on. "Secondly, I hate your wives. Some weeks back

"You came all the way here just to tell us you're the mysterious landlord who has been causing unrest in district twelve?"Moses regarded her for a while. "It might seemed so."Mr. James Bennett dropped his fork with a clatter, his jaw tightening. “Impossible,” he muttered, his voice barely audible. “You're an Uber driver.
