"You bastard, this is a Fake," Dr. Mark barked. "Do you want to kill Marcus Graham?"Reggie turned to Moses. "What's the meaning of this? You brought a fake to me?"Moses turned to Dr. Mark. "What makes you think it's a fake? Have you ever seen one up close before?""Yes I have," Dr. Mark said sharply. "Twice. I've seen fatally sick people regain their health after taking the vials. This is obviously a fake. I can tell."Moses smirked. "So you admit that you know so much about the heavens tears, huh?""Why won't I?" Dr. Mark scoffed. "Don't underestimate me."Moses shrugged. "I'm surprised. If you know so much about the heavens tears, then why didn't you tell Reggie about it before?"Dr. Mark caught his tongue. He realized that he had said too much. His silence made Reggie suspicious. Reggie grabbed Dr. Marks shoulder. "Dr. Mark, what are you not telling me?"Dr. Mark stuttered. "Don't listen to a word he said. He's just trying to complicate things.""Never mind that," Reggie snapped
"Father, you're alive?" Greene asked, his jaw dropping. He looked as if he had just seen a ghost. "When did you—""I got discharged this evening," Marcus Graham replied as he walked to the dining table and sat on it. "Dr. Mark said I was free to go home.""But I don't understand," Boris said. "Dr. Mark mentioned you only have a few weeks left to live.""He wasn't wrong, but I made a miraculous recovery and here I am," Marcus retorted. The Graham family exchanged glances at each other, realising what Marcus return meant. Their reign of control over Graham incorporated has shifted. Marcus leaned back in his chair, his gaze sweeping across the table. Finally, he spoke, breaking the silence in the room. "Greene," Marcus locked eyes with his eldest son. "You're my firstborn. You were supposed to set an example. Yet, you sat at the head of this table and mocked the man who gave you everything."Greene’s face turned pale, but he managed to keep his face expressionless. "Boris," Marcus
Greene knew all about Rockechilds Empire. As a matter of fact, he had always looked up to Rockechilds Empire, hoping to grow Graham incorporated into a Mega trillion empire someday. “I refuse to believe a mere delivery guy like you can form a partnership with Rockechilds Empire,” Greene said, amusing. “Is this your idea of a joke?”Moses dug his hand in his pockets. “It might surprise you I was once a senior executive at Rockechilds Empire. But then I got bored and retired.”This brought laughter from Greene. “Senior executive my foot. Just who do you think you're fooling here?”Moses continued with his lies. “I'm not fooling anyone. I came to Preston City to experience a humble life. That's why I started out as a delivery guy.”Greene couldn't control his laughter. He turned to Reggie. “Are you being serious, Reggie? You actually believed this clown's story?”Reggie clenched his hands. “I do. We were just about to discuss it before you barged in and slapped him.”Greene became seri
Moses approached Greene. "That's not all. You have to grovel before me and apologize for slapping me.""As if," Greene barked. "Isn't it enough that I resigned? What more could you possibly want?""I would have slapped you if I wanted to, but I'm being reasonable here because the Graham family are a respectful group. It's best you grovel," Moses said, his voice grave. "Or else you'll regret it."Greene scoffed. "I won't grovel to the likes of you. I've resigned. There's nothing you can do to me."Moses turned to Reggie. "Greene refused to grovel. Let's carry on with our meeting."Greene thought it felt odd for Moses to give up that easily. It was as if, Moses has other ideas in mind. Reggie placed his hand on Greene's shoulder. "It's best you do what he says, Greene. It's for your own good.""Screw you," Greene cursed, grabbing a fistful of Reggie's shirt. "Because of you, Graham incorporated would fall. I'm going to watch it happen and then I'll laugh in you and father's face with g
Reggie returned home to meet his family, waiting for him in the living room. The atmosphere was tensed with Greene pacing up and down as if he had lost his mind. When Reggie entered, all eyes settled on him. “Reggie, you bastard,” Boris scowled, rising to his feet. “What have you done?”“I was about to explain myself,” Reggie answered, dropping his briefcase. “But I feel thirsty. I want a drink.”“Screw your drink,” Greene rushed at him and jerked Reggie by the front of his shirt. “You sold Graham incorporated to Rockechilds Empire without our knowledge. How could you?”“Relax,” Reggie said calmly. “I took that decision because I'm the CEO of the company and you're not. Rockechilds Empire bought all our stocks, but they're giving us liberty to run the company.”“You mean we still have control over Graham incorporated?” Cecilia asked. “Not necessarily. We get to keep 20% of the profits while Rockechilds Empire funds all our projects,” Reggie explained. “How the hell did you do it?
Despite Greene's outburst, he did nothing to Moses. He didn't arrest him nor sued him to court for two reasons: he had no proof Moses was behind his predicament and secondly, he was scared of taking the fight to Rockechilds Empire. There was a slim chance he would win if Rockechilds Empire get involved in the fight and defended Moses. Greene had so much to lose which was why he decided to let the sleeping dog lie. Meanwhile, Moses continued to work as an underdog in Graham Incorporated. No one, not even Reggie's himself had the slightest idea that Moses was the true owner of the company. Reggie was CEO but the puppet master was still Moses. In the weeks that followed, Moses developed a strong interest in Graham Incorporated. The more he went through the company's portfolio, the more untapped potentials he saw. Now, while Graham incorporated primarily specialized in producing computers and laptops, Moses wanted to introduce a revolutionary product that could disrupt the tech
To Elliott's surprise, Reggie approved of Moses' offer and made him head of the hologram phones department. Under twenty-four hours, Elliott's patent was bought by Graham incorporated and a contract was signed. The deal was done in secret, away from public eyes. The hologram phones department had just eight devoted and trusted workers who developed the technology and kept their mouth shut. Moses acted as the supervisor, admiring the work that ran into the phones. The months flew by like a breeze. In the fourth month, the technology was ready to go public. For its debut, Moses made Reggie organized a launching event. They sent invitations to all major corporations that had conspired to suppress Elliott's hologram technology. Even Greene himself received an invitation. The invitation didn't state what innovation was going to be unveiled, but the guest list attended the occasion. At the height of the event, the lights dimmed, and the murmurs of the crowd hushed. A spotlight i
For a moment, Greene froze, his face growing ugly. Then he exploded. “What do you mean, I’m not getting a cut? I’m the rightful heir to Graham Incorporated! I deserve a piece of everything this company does!” Reggie turned back to him, his gaze icy. “You lost the right to that privilege the time you put your greed above Elliott's vision.”Greene snarled. “What's that supposed to mean?”“You’ve done nothing but sabotage Elliott's innovation and suppress his patent for your benefit,” Reggie explained. “As a result of that, you won't get a penny out of the revenue generated from Halo phones.”As Greene opened his mouth, Moses entered with Elliott beside him. “Well, well, well, look who we have here,” Moses said. The smug expression on Moses' face made Greene's face burned with rage. “What are you doing here, Moses?” Greene barked. “This doesn't concern you.”Moses stopped in front of him, his gaze piercing. “I heard you ranting, so I decided to hop in. You're so entitled. Do you wa
Moses frowned after being slapped. "You hit me in the face. That was a mistake."Vanessa lurched forward and slapped Moses as well. "Who the hell do you think you are to question us why we slapped you. Hell, I'll slap you over and over again if I please and there's nothing you can do about it."Moses could feel Yuri's bloodlust creeping up on him from the kitchen. She appeared out of the kitchen, a thick frown on her face. "Is there a problem, honey?"Moses stiffened as he noticed she was still holding the kitchen knife in her hand. "It's okay, Yuri, return to the kitchen. Let me handle this."Gabriella glanced into the house and when she saw Yuri, a wide smile appeared on her face. "Oh, so you have a wife. Perfect," Gabriella said, brushing passed Moses into the house. She headed straight for Yuri and slapped her. "You must be Moses wife. That's good to know. Did you know your husband convinced my husband to hand over his entire assets to him? What sort of husband did you marry o
A thick silence ensued in the living room as Moses delivered the bad news to Bernie's three wives. The three wives stared at Moses, their eyes widening in shock. They couldn't believe their ears. Diana shot to her feet, her face flushed with rage. "What do you mean there's no other money? I have bills to sort out, staffs to pay and a lifestyle to maintain. Who does Bernie thinks he is, abandoning my needs?"Gabriella stood to her feet as well, pointing her finger at Moses. "Did I just hear you say two months? So I have to wait another two months before getting my allowance? This is a joke right? Do you have any idea how much I spend in a week?"Moses wrinkled his nose. These entitled women made his skin crawl. "I wasn't finished," Moses went on. "Bernie noticed you've all been wasteful of his resources so he's implemented some new changes to your allowances."Vanessa who remained seated in her chair glared at Moses. "Some changes? What is this changes if I may ask."Moses turned
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
