Preston City.

A large metropolitan city filled with beaches and tall buildings was the place Moses decided he would raise his son.

Moses had become very popular in the Twelve cities.

He knew if he was going to raise Ben, he would need a fresh location.

A place where nobody knew him or his clan ties.

That was why he picked up Ben and Yuri and left the twelve cities to settle in Preston City.

Moses and Yuri picked up a new identity as the Potters family.

Many people mistook Moses and Yuri for a married couple because they live together under a roof and raise a baby.

In Preston City, Moses got the job of a delivery guy while Yuri acted as a nanny for Ben.

The purpose of a job to Moses was meant to put up the appearance of an average father working to provide for his family.

Because Moses was diligent in his work as a delivery guy, he was grew quite popular around Preston City in his first three months as a newbie.

    When Moses returned to Preston Express, his boss was waiting for him at the entrance. There was a scowl on the manager's face that Moses didn't like. “What the hell did you do, Moses, huh?” He demanded angrily. Moses stood in front of him, his face expressionless. “Nothing, I only offered a suggestion which Greene took offense at.”“You bloody fool,” the manager scolded. “You're not supposed to say anything. I understand you're new in this city, but you should've known better.”Moses narrowed his eyes. “I apologize for causing you any trouble, sir.”The manager clenched his fists. “The Graham family is a very influential family in this city. They literally run the city. Everyone is careful not to offend them in the slightest and yet, you….”He couldn't complete his words because he was speaking so fast and breathlessly. Moses sighed. “I apologize for causing you any trouble to you. If it makes you feel any better, I'll resign.”The manager frowned. “I didn't want to terminate your

    Marcus Graham, the family patriarch of the Graham family lay down on his sick bed, battling with his life. His condition was so bad he could barely speak a word to anyone. He was fed through a tube and was always wired to a life machine. But despite everything, Marcus Graham's fate was sealed. He only has a few weeks left to live. Reggie Graham sat next to his father, alone. He had been the only one visiting his father every single day. Marcus Graham wrote no will on how his wealth would be shared after he died. He refused to make a will because he wanted his family to work together to keep the company alive and booming. It was a family business, and it would be treated as such. Sadly, Reggie was the only one who was treated badly by his fellow sisters and brothers, especially Greene. Marcus had always been fond of Reggie that was why Reggie never left his side since his sickness struck. "Mr Reggie," A nurse entered the room. "You have a visitor?"Reggie was surprised. The l

    "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

  • The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire    I won't grovel

    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?

  • The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire    The Underdog

    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

  • First encounter

    “Watch where you’re going!” the boy rasped angrily, brushing imaginary dust off his shoulder. “Peasant. Are you blind?”Moses frowned as he scanned the boy, taking in the fine embroidery of his suit and the two guards from the House of Neptune. There was no doubt about it. This boy right here was Moses' second son. Benjamin, taken aback, raised his hands apologetically. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to—” But before he could finish, Moses stepped forward, his tone firm. “No, Benjamin. There’s no need to apologize. It was an accident.” This was Moses' first encounter with his second son and he already hated the boy's attitude. The boy raised an eyebrow, a smirk curling on his lips. “Do you know who I am?” His voice was laced with arrogance. “I am Prince Curtis, the rightful heir to the throne of the United Kingdom Of Niklauria. You'll speak to me with respect.” Before Benjamin could respond, one of Curtis’s guards stiffened visibly, his eyes locking on Moses. He leaned toward Curtis an

  • The Crown of Dominion

    Moses private jet took off from North hills."Have you heard about the Crown of Dominion?" Moses asked Benjamin. Benjamin was seated opposite his father. He shook his head. "I don't know anything about it."Moses activated his Halo phone which displayed a holographic description of the crown. "It's an ancient artifact which is believed to have been forged by the gods," Moses explained. "Forged by the gods?" Benjamin looked bored. "Is this one of those folklore stories?"Moses continued as if he didn't hear him. "According to legend, the crown grants its wielder unmatched charisma and the ability to command absolute loyalty from armies. It can also inspire fear or reverence in anyone who beholds it."Benjamin supported his jaw on his hand. "So it's a myth. What's this got to do with my ascension to kinghood?""Plenty," Moses answered. "This crown is the cheat code to our victory. However, we're not the only ones interested in it."Benjamin raised his eyebrow. "Let me take a wild gue

  • Secret Twin

    Benjamin stared at his father as if he just said the stupidest thing ever. “You want me to overthrow my mother?” Benjamin stood to his feet. “Why should I do that?”Moses leaned back in his chair and stared heavenwards. “Well, the House of Neptune is conspiring to dethrone your mom and replace her with a new king.”Moses paused to look Benjamin directly in his eyes. “Your mother was a smart woman. Too smart. Last week, she revealed to me that you had a secret twin brother.”Benjamin stiffened in shock. “M-my twin?”“You're not identical,” Moses noted. “You're both fraternal twins. Actually, after Elizabeth put to birth, she hid your twin brother while she handed you over to me to raise.”Moses explained the agreement he made with Elizabeth years ago after he agreed to raise Benjamin by himself. By the time Moses was done talking, Benjamin was speechless. He dropped back into his seat, but no words came out of his mouth. Moses sighed in exasperation. “I know it's a shocker, son. Sh

  • The truth

    Moses turned to face the gathered crowd of parents, schoolteachers, and Principal Armstrong. He spread his arms wide and addressed them loud and clear. “Ladies and gentlemen,” he began. “Let me remind you of the terms of our little bet. If I win, all of you—the parents, the teachers, and even Principal Armstrong—will grovel and apologize to me. Thereafter, I will consider funding the school project.” The hall remained still and silent.Everyone remembered the wager, but not many were prepared to grovel before Moses. Principal Armstrong cleared his throat and stepped forward. “Mr. Doberman, if I may. This isn’t necessary. On behalf of everybody here, I sincerely apologize for any offense caused. There’s no need for anyone to grovel.” Moses’s expression darkened, his glare sharp enough to cut stone. He turned his gaze on Armstrong with pure disgust. “Who made you the speaker for everyone here?” Moses snapped, his voice rising. “If you have nothing meaningful to say, then shut

  • Setting appointments

    Another man, a teacher, stood to his feet. “For the second challenge, if I may. Can we step away from money? Let's see who among the both of you has the most influence.”August turned to him, intrigued. “That's interesting. What's the details of this challenge?”The teacher stepped out, an excited look in his eyes. “The challenge is simple: both parties must secure a meeting with the CEO of Graham Incorporated right here and now. The winner would be the one who Reggie Graham sets an appointment for.”Everyone exchanged glances. This challenge was good. Graham incorporated was the world leading tech company, known for its bestselling Halo Phones.Graham Incorporated had developed a reputation for rejecting partnerships from even the wealthiest tech corporations. Their CEO, Reggie Graham, rarely entertained meetings, let alone signed deals.Whoever could set an appointment with him would be a man with strong connections. Moses smirked. “Fascinating. I like this one. Let's do it.”Sti

  • The painting

    Mr. Leclerc wanted to stop the Marksman but decided against it. “These fools,” he cried inwardly. “They do not know who they're dealing with. If only they knew they wouldn't dare to challenge him.”But there was nothing Leclerc could do. The challenge had been set. If he butts his head in, he would be dealing with Moses Doberman directly. All Leclerc could do was seat and watch. August started. “We'll let the teachers and parents dish out the challenge. Three challenges. Winner would be determined by who successfully does all three challenges without a hitch.”Moses shrugged. “Fine by me. So what's going to be our first challenge?”A tall man with salt-and-pepper hair stepped forward from the crowd. He adjusted his glasses and cleared his throat. “If I may,” he began, his voice filled with pride, “I am a dealer in fine art, and I happen to have a painting in my possession—a masterpiece valued at $10 million.”“It's a rare piece, painted by a reclusive artist whose works are sought

  • The Marksmans

    The room was buzzed with murmurs after Moses declared he would fund the entire project. Many parents exchanged glances as they were curious to know who this new man was. Principal Armstrong cleared his throat and looked directly at Moses. He wore a skeptical expression on his face that told anyone he wasn't buying Moses' words. "Sir," Armstrong began, "May I ask, who are you?" Moses leaned back in his chair, wearing a deadpan expression on his face. "It doesn't matter who I am. It's not relevant, but if it satisfies your curiosity, I’m Moses Doberman, Benjamin Doberman’s father." A ripple of laughter broke out among the teachers who were present at the meeting. One of the teachers, Benjamin's chemistry teacher, chuckled loudly, shaking his head. "Ah, so you're Benjamin's father," the teacher said. "No doubt your son is intelligent, Mr. Doberman, but let’s be realistic here. You’re a C-Ranker, aren’t you? Let’s not make promises you can’t keep. Stay humble." The parents al

  • The PTA meeting

    "I didn’t mean any harm," Lucas continued, his voice cracking. "Please, Benjamin, spare me. Spare my father."Benjamin sighed. "Get me out of this thing first."The room was filled with tension as the goons hurriedly released Benjamin from the ropes. They were also scared of Benjamin after hearing his true identity. "Just so you know," Benjamin said, nursing his wrists after being freed. "I already knew you guys were spying on me."Lucas approached Benjamin, swallowing hard. "How could you know about us spying on you? You... you were always alone."Benjamin’s smirk widened. "You think I wouldn’t notice your pathetic attempts at surveillance? I have my own spies—ones you would never see coming. They’ve been shadowing you this entire time."The colour drained from Bruce’s face. "W-What do you mean?"Benjamin leaned forward slightly, his tone low and cold. "There are assassins in this warehouse as we speak. Deadly, silent, and loyal only to me. They’ve been here since before you arriv

  • Groveling

    Lucas was surprised at Benjamin's honesty. "Interesting," Lucas said, clearing his throat. "And just when I thought you would deny it.""Why should I deny anything?" Benjamin asked. "I'm the reason why the Willows and the Lawrence family are ruined. Got your answer now?"Lucas couldn't believe his eyes. He never expected Benjamin to admit the rumours about him. "This is an unexpected turn of events," Lucas said, sighing. "Alright, guys you can come out now."At his command, Bruce and Grant emerged out of the darkness along with two other S-Rank students. Clara was absent. She didn't want to be part of this anymore. Bruce glared down at Benjamin, cracking his knuckles. "So you finally, admit it. Big mistake. I'm going to pulverise you until no one recognises you."Benjamin rolled his eyes. "You seem to forget that I never cause any harm to anyone who doesn't cause harm to me. You and your girlfriend hit me. So I retaliated.""You destroyed the Willows family," Grant barked. "How cr
