Betty's slap caused the other diners to glance in Moses' direction. “What's going on over there?” A lady asked. “A fight?” Her partner added. “That waiter must've offended her.” Another diner commented. Moses nursed his cheeks where he had been slapped. “You slapped me?”“What are you going to do about it, huh?” Betty hit him again. “You'll hit me back? I dare you, you piece of trash. Hit me!”“What's happening here?” Dave demanded, appearing on the scene. “I heard someone getting slapped.”“Darling, this idiot here was insinuating something offensive to me,” Betty reported.Dave turned to Moses, his eyes hardening. “You monkey, what did you say to her?”“She asked me when John Smith would come to eat,” Moses answered. “Out of curiosity, I inquired why you two weren't dining together, because it seemed to me she was hoping to dine with John Smith.”Dave glanced at Betty and realized Moses was making sense. She had gone out of her way to look extra beautiful, which was strange beca
“I want Dave fired, and his properties confiscated.”Moses' demand made Madame Aurora and Dave to stiffen in shock. “What nerve do you have to make such demands?” Madame Aurora barked at Moses. “I wasn't even talking to you.”“You rat, so this is what you want, huh? You're trying to get me fired.” Dave said. Moses frowned. “I warned you before, didn't I? Hit me and you'll regret it.”“You think you can get me fired?” Dave laughed. “Don't make me laugh. Even if you request it, grandmother would never get rid of me.”“Forget that. How dare you speak for John Smith?” Madame Aurora added, glaring at Moses. “You've been nothing but a nuisance, Moses. After tonight, pack your things and get out of my hotel.”“If Moses leaves, then so would I,” John Smith said. “In that order, I demand that Dave be fired, and his properties confiscated.”Madame Aurora's eyes widened and her jaws dropped. “You don't mean that, John Smith.”“Do I look like I'm playing?” John Smith asked, his eyes hard. Mada
“I'm curious to know, John Smith,” Madame Aurora said. “Who are you really, and where did you come from?”John Smith took his glass of wine and stirred it. “I'm a king of a distant sovereignty country.”Madame Aurora was startled. “There aren't that many monarchy governments nowadays.”“You're right,” John Smith said, cutting into a juicy steak. “But mine exists.”Madame Aurora was intrigued. “What's the name of your nation, John Smith?”“I'd rather not tell,” John Smith said with finality in his tone. “I'm here on vacation and would prefer to remain anonymous.”“As you wish, John Smith,” Madame Aurora smiled. “I believe the steak is up to your taste?”John Smith nodded. “They're incredible.”Moses stood behind John Smith, observing the entire conversation. From the looks in Madame Aurora's expression, he could tell she bought the little lie John Smith just told her. John Smith was no king, and neither was there any monarchy country that he rules. This was all a ploy to buy her tru
Moses was mad. This arrogant, rich bastard had the nerve to slap him. This wasn't the first time Sir Lin and the other VIP patrons have harassed him. However, circumstances have changed. Moses was not the same man he used to be. He would crush Sir Lin with all his might. “I'll make you regret doing that to me,” Moses said, his voice dark. “I will never forgive you. That's a promise.”Sir Lin was surprised at Moses' confidence. “You'll make me regret? And how do you intend to do that?”Moses hide a smile. “You'll see. Before today ends, you'll seek for my forgiveness, but you won't find it.”Before Sir Lin could react, Moses excused himself and walked away. This angered Sir Lin so much, he yelled after Moses. “You filthy rat. How dare you walk out on me? I'll fix you. I'll make sure you're fired.”But Moses didn't give him as much as a glance. “That blasted idiot,” Mrs. Van cursed. “Who does he think he is, walking out on a VIP guest? Is he out of his mind?”Charleston bite his l
Sir Lin felt like someone had hit him with a sledgehammer. “What do you mean, the banks are demanding their money?” He asked, his voice unsteady.Sir Lin's secretary was restless on the phone. “This is a disaster, sir. We owe eight banks hundreds of millions. They're all threatening to foreclose on our assets if we don't pay up our debts.”“But that's impossible,” Sir Lin snapped. “I have done business with these banks for years. They can't do this to me.”“Unfortunately, Sir Lin, this is just the tip of the iceberg,” his secretary spoke in a shaky voice. “We were given an ultimatum–if we fail to pay up by the end of the week, they'll seize everything.”Sir Lin felt his blood run cold. “I don't believe this. They're bluffing. That's right, they must be bluffing.”“I'm afraid they're not, sir,” his secretary said hurriedly. “I spoke with their representatives a couple of minutes ago. If we don't pay up our debts, they'll take us to court, freeze our accounts and auction off our assets
Sir Lin left the Imperial Hotel after he couldn't get Moses' forgiveness. His financial crises continued to grow worse that it forced him to go on the run to avoid being confronted by bank agents. The VIP patrons were thrown into a panic as they were unable to tell who among them was the next target. This was precisely what Moses wanted. The more unsettled the VIP patrons were, the more likely they would lose faith in the hotel and leave. With Madame Aurora distracted by John Smith, she won't notice her business crumbling bit by bit. * * * *Later that evening, Madame Aurora arranged for John Smith to be taken out on a ride across the metropolis. “The hotel would cover up the expenses,” Madame Aurora told Moses. “I don't want to risk John Smith growing bored in my hotel. Let him take some fresh air and look at the city lights.”Moses nodded. “I understand, Madame Aurora. Would I be the one to accompany him?”Madame Aurora snapped. “Of course not, you idiot. Valeria would do tha
Desmond Dekker was skeptical when Robert Doberman scheduled an appointment with him. At one point, he respected the Doberman's clan but after their great downfall, he viewed them with disdain. Robert Doberman didn't mention why he wanted to meet him, but Desmond Dekker could speculate what Robert Doberman was after. “Possibly, some financial aid,” Larry Dekker, his eldest son, said as he cut into his steak. “It's very obvious. The Doberman's clan is finished. I heard not even the bank would loan them money.”Robert Doberman chuckled as he sipped from his can of beer. “I'll like to see that blasted idiot try. If he dare ask me for help, I'll make sure I disgrace him.”Naomi Dekker, his daughter, chimed in. “Should you even grant the Doberman clan any audience? They're not worth entertaining.”“That's why I decided against holding this meeting in my office,” Desmond Dekker said. “I chose the beach, so I can keep it casual.” “I hate the Doberman's clan, especially that idiot, Moses,”
$1.6 billion.Desmond Dekker couldn't believe his eyes. Never in his life had he seen such an amount of money. Larry Dekker noticed his father's shocked expression and glanced over at the phone.The figure he saw caused him to catch his breath. “Impossible,” Larry Dekker exclaimed. “I don't believe it.”“You forget to check my bank statement,” Moses jeered. “It's been sent to your email.”Desmond Dekker clicked on his emails and downloaded Moses bank statement. It was all there. Moses entire net worth and assets were displayed before Desmond Dekker's very eyes. Naomi Dekker felt a shiver run down her spine as she laid eyes on Moses bank statement. “This is the real deal. I'm a stockbroker, so I can tell this bank statement is authentic,” she declared, glancing up to meet Moses. “Moses, are you by any chance Rockechild's Empire's chairman?”Moses regarded her closely. “What makes you say that?”“You clearly own the highest shares in Rockechilds Empire,” Naomi Dekker replied, her
Bernie Silverman was startled. "You're the landlord of New Haven estate?"Moses nodded. "That's right. But don't tell anyone. I rather keep my identity a secret. Only a handful of people I trust knows I'm the landlord."Bernie Silverman had heard stories about the mysterious landlord and his prowess.This man standing before him not only bought New Haven estate but also destroyed Prince Harry and took control of his estate. 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
After Moses confrontation and warning, no one dared to cause anymore trouble for him. The Jackson family left the estate along with the Washington family. Feeling outclassed and afraid of Moses, they decided to leave the city entirely. Only the Bennett family stayed behind and kept to themselves. Moses had now acquired both New Haven estate and the Royalty estate. Neither the Jackson family nor the Washington family had the courage to expose his true identity to anyone. The Bennett family kept their mouth shut and avoided Moses as best as they could. The mysterious landlord of New Haven estate and Royalty estate remained their secret. Not long after the Washingtons and Jackson's departure, their houses were soon rented by new tenants. The Silverman Family. They were a large family. The familys patriarch, Bernie Silverman was a billionaire in his mid-fifties. He has three beautiful wives and many children. Bernie Silverman owns a mansion which he built in his hometown. The
"...I am the Mysterious landlord you've all heard about.”A long period of silence ensued in the dinning room as all three families stared at Moses in shock. “The mysterious landlord?” Mrs. Jackson whispered, her hand clenching her husband’s arm. "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. There's no way you could be our landlord.”Moses wrinkled his nose at James Bennett. “Why don't we ask the Washingtons what they think? They've always been suspicious of me.”Mr. Washington’s eyes widened, his lips parted as if to speak, but no words came out. Mrs. Washington gripped the edge of the table, her knuckles white. “You're... you're not bluffing now, are you Moses?” she stammered. Moses smiled faintly. “I ass
The three top families in New Haven estate; the Washington family, the Jackson family and the Bennett family had a family dinner to discuss about the new development surrounding the mysterious landlord and Prince Harry's downfall. "There's something about this new landlord that we aren't noticing," Mr. Washington began. "And it's Moses.""That's right," Mrs. Washington added. "Despite the little we know of the Potters, it's obvious Moses Potters could be the new landlord."James Bennett and carol Bennett exchanged looks. "Moses Potters?" James Bennett ate his chicken. "The guy's an Uber driver. There's no way he could be the mysterious landlord.""I didn't believe it either at first," Mrs. Washington said. "But there's just so much going on that points to him. His major source of income remains unknown. I believe he's using this Uber driver job to hide something.""More importantly, he got released out of detention while Prince Harry took the heat. You may say the Big Boss was the o
Prince Harry sat on the edge of the cold steel bench in his detention cell like a homeless beggar. The gray walls felt as if they were closing in, amplifying his anger and frustration. When the sound of approaching footsteps echoed down the corridor, he jumped to his feet, gripping the bars with white-knuckled hands.The man who entered was tall and stoic, dressed in a crisp black suit. It was the royal advisor, Sir Archibald, the king's most trusted confidant. "Finally!" Harry barked. "Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting for you?""Sorry I took so long, your highness," Sir Archibald didn't bow. "There was a slight delay.""A slight delay?" Prince Harry scowled. "I've been in detention for two weeks. Look at me. Look at how my beards are all brown. I'm a prince for crying out loud."Archibald didn't say anything. Prince Harry slammed his hand against the wall. "This is an outrage! I demand the royal family intervene immediately. Use whatever influence, resources, or f
The room fell silent. The other agents exchanged nervous glances, their eyes shaking from fear. "Did he just said war?" One of the agents whispered. "I didn't sign up for this," Another whispered back. "This is a serious matter."Harper stood frozen, as Jenkins’ words sank in. "How is it possible he's married to Queen Elizabeth?" He asked himself. "Is this guy for real?"The room remained silent with the weight of Jenkins' words pressing down on everybody. Harper’s hands trembled as he fumbled to unlock Moses’ handcuffs, the metallic click echoing in the silence. “I-I apologize,” Harper stammered, stepping back as Moses calmly rubbed his wrists.“Release the other woman immediately,” Harper barked at the other agents, his voice cracking. They scurried out of the room without hesitation.Moses stood to his feet, his Shadow hovering over everyone. Jenkins made the next move. "On your knees!" Jenkins roared, his authoritative voice slicing through the air like a blade. “Bow and g
Moses and Yuri were interrogated separately. The interrogation room was cold and bare, with a steel table bolted to the floor and a single flickering fluorescent light overhead. Moses sat in the lone chair, his hands cuffed to the table. 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? Tell me.”“Well, if you must know,” Moses replied evenly, “one lucky ticket changed my life then I decided to invest all that money into a house. It's the best investmen
“Seize my estate? Is this some kind of joke?”“I assure you, it is not,” Harold said firmly. “The landlord is within his rights. 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. This was the first time in his life someone dared to challenge his authority in such a manner. The audacity! Whoever this mysterious landlord was, Harry vowed to uncover his identity. “No one makes a fool out of me,” he g
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. Wreck the house. I want to make a statement to that fool that I'm not to be trifled with."After he hung up, a wide grin appeared on Harry's face. * * * *Prince Harry was lounging in his study and sipping on a glass of whiskey. He was waiting patiently for his men to return with Benjamin. Harry enjoyed a good c
