“Get out of my penthouse, you bastard!” Tom Floki flared up. Yuri grabbed Tom by his wrists and squeezed it hard that his bones nearly broke. "How dare you hit, Moses!" She demanded fiercely. Panic washed over Tom as he saw the savagery in Yuri's eyes. Behind that pretty face, Tom saw an enraged woman. It was as if he was staring into the eyes of death itself. Moses stepped in quickly before Yuri killed Tom. "Yuri, let me handle this," Moses said.Yuri shook her head. "No. Anyone who lays his hands on you must die."By now, Tom was afraid of Yuri. He didn't like the looks in her eyes. "What the hell!" Tom Floki snapped, struggling to prise his wrist off Yuri's grip. "Let go off me this instant."Yuri slapped him, causing the entire hall to gasp in shock. Tom was startled. He had never been slapped before by anyone, especially by a woman. "I'm going to give you one last chance," Yuri said, her teeth set. "Kneel and apologize to Moses. If you refuse, I'll break a finger."Mose
Tom Floki burned with a cause for revenge after humiliating himself In front of all his former classmates. He swore to get revenge by killing Moses. As soon as he got away from the party, he took out his phone and dialed up Rick. Rick was a notorious gang leader, with a nasty criminal record and a tight grip on the streets. Rick was loyal to the Floki family after Tom's deceased father aided in his release from prison. Rick would do anything for Tom Floki. When Tom called Rick and narrated what happened at his penthouse, Rick flared up with anger. “Say no more, Tom Floki,” Rick smoked a big cigar. “I swear on your father's grave that I would butcher Moses and set the Doberman clan ablaze.”Tom Floki went on. “I want him to suffer. Make him feel hell before you kill him. As for his bitch Yuri, I want you to capture her. I'll fix her myself.”Rick nodded. “Understood. Is Moses still at the party?”“Yes, you better tell your men to hurry before he leaves!” Tom snapped, “I want tha
It was a stormy afternoon when a sleek black Lamborghini Aventador pulled up before the steps of the entrance of the Imperial Hotel. Moses ran towards the automobile with an umbrella carried above his head. He opened the front door while he held the umbrella over. With a stiff bow, he greeted. “Welcome to the Imperial Hotel, Master Dave.” Dave stepped out of the car, a big sunglasses resting on his head. “Well, well, well, if it isn't my worthless brother-in-law," he said as he removed his glasses. Moses hung his head. “How may I be of service to you, Master Dave?” “Lucky for you, I don't have any luggage, but I'm here with my girlfriend,” Dave replied. “If you let one drop of rain touch her, I'll kill you.” “I won't let her get wet, Master Dave,” Moses said. “Baby, who is that?” A female voice asked from the passenger's seat. “Oh, this shithead is Moses,” Dave answered. “He's the pathetic live-in-son-in-law that's married to my cousin.” The girl wrinkled her nose whe
Dave's face went pale. “Y-You're kidding, right? $2 billion? That's a fortune. We don't have that kind of money.” “That is why I call you useless,” Madame Aurora fired. “Each one of you can't even boast of $100 million.” Glenn raised his hand. He was Madame Aurora's eldest offspring. “Mother, no matter how you stress it, it's impossible for us to raise $2 billion. Hell, not even the bank would loan us such an outrageous sum.” Madame Aurora wrinkled her nose at him. “Alas, you're just as useless as your son, Glenn. It's no surprise, like father like son. You two take after each other.” Dave and Glenn's veins stuck out in their forehead. Madame Aurora's insult hit them deep, but they kept their mouth shut. It wasn't worth it to talk back to Madame Aurora. The MOMO family depended on her for survival. All their financial holdings were penned under her name. This was what made her the most important member of the MOMO family. A maid brought in a tray of tea in beautiful chi
“I do not approve. You will not marry my wife,” Moses snapped. Moses' sudden appearance and declaration took everyone in the living room by surprise. “Moses, when did you get here?” Valeria demanded. “Long enough to hear this mad man's offer,” Moses retorted. “Don't listen to him, Valeria” “You sneaky bastard!” Juliet removed her shoe and hurled it at Moses. “Stop trying to ruin my life. This doesn't concern you. Get lost.” “But it does concern me, mother-in-law,” Moses countered as he dodged her shoe. “Valeria is my wife. I cannot let another man steal her away from me. She's mine.” “You foolish boy,” Jordan charged at him and slapped him across the face. “Always running your mouth. Do you want to ruin my family like how you ruined yours?” Moses stepped back, feeling the sting of the slap echoing in his ears. Madame Aurora, despite her richness and power, gave birth to five ugly women and two sons. In the Twelve Cities, beauty and class were a virtue attributed to a woman.
Madame Aurora summoned a second meeting by 10pm. Two meetings in one day were uncommon in the MOMO family, but Madame Aurora was in a mad frenzy. She had just watched the news and her bank manager was blowing up her phone lines. He was asking one question: “Why didn't you invest in Rockechilds Empire?” If she had purchased some excellent stocks, she would've been worth at least $500 million. Madame Aurora could feel her blood pressure rising. Only fifteen people in the world bought Rockechilds Empire stocks when the stocks were low. Everyone called them a bunch of mad men, but those guys were now worth billions of dollars. Madame Aurora needed to see her family or else she might lose her mind. She, in particular, wanted to see Moses. The MOMO family were once again gathered at the Imperial hotel in the conference room. Madame Aurora was pacing around, her face knotted in an impatient frown. “I was sure I summoned everyone. Where the hell are Valeria and Moses?” “W
Madame Aurora couldn't believe her ears. “You traded all your stocks and liquidated your account with Rockechilds? Why the hell would you do that?” Moses reared his head back in fear. The sudden change of expression on Madame Aurora's face was scary. “Well, after everyone ridiculed me for investing in Rockechilds, and my clan expelled me, I sold my stocks to redeem myself.” Madame Aurora opened her mouth to say something but no words came out. Moses went on, “You see, I was frustrated and depressed. Since it was a foolish investment, I figured it would be better if I sold all my stocks and count my losses.” Madame Aurora's face turned pink. She looked as if she were about to explode. A brief silence ensued in the room, tension charged in the atmosphere. “You IDIOT!” Madame Aurora screamed at Moses' face, grabbing his throat with both of her hands and rocking him. The rest of the Momo family rushed to restrain her. “Mother, Please calm down, you'll strangle him,” Glenn
The Doberman clan was a four hour train journey to the Western part of the Twelve cities. They controlled many lands and estates, which was how they generated their wealth. It was 12am when Moses arrived at the Doberman's clan. He rode a taxi through the imposing gates of the Doberman's residents. When the taxi pulled up before the giant mansion of the Doberman's chief, a crowd of fifty people gathered around to welcome Moses. Suddenly, the crowd fell to their hands and knees and bowed deeply as Moses stepped out of the taxi. “Welcome home, Young master.” They chanted in unison, their voice trembling. Moses said nothing. He stared at his clansmen, a cigarette burning at the end of his mouth. These were the same men who had beaten him up and kicked him out of the Doberman's clan. Just then, the double door to the mansion swung open, and a man came walking out, flanked by Albert. He was the Clan Chief, Robert Doberman. Robert Doberman locked gaze with Moses as he app
