Moses and Andrew had been best friends since they were kids.

Never for once, did Andrew ever show this side of himself to Moses.

It was the first time Andrew had hit him.

“Andrew,” Moses glared at him. “How dare you slap me?”

“Shut your stinking mouth up, Moses,” Andrew fired back. “I don't associate with failures like you, so don't try to get familiar with me. I'm way above you.”

“I don't understand,” Moses raised his voice. “What do you mean, you're above me?”

“Read the room, Moses,” Andrew said. “You think I'll like to be associated with a failure like you? You literally ruined your clan with your reckless investment. You slaved under the MOMO family for a woman who never loved you, and after the MOMO family's downfall, you became an errand boy to the Big Boss.”

Moses frowned. He gets where Andrew was headed. “So because I'm at the bottom, you decide I'm not worthy to be treated as a friend.”

“I've got hundreds of friends, Moses,” Andrew smirked. “And they're all influential and

    Andrew was petrified at the spot as the line went dead. “Eh, what just happened? Me, fired? Terminated? Wait, none of this makes any sense. What did I do?” He questioned himself loudly. “What's the matter, Andrew?” Moses jeered, enjoying the scene.Andrew's heart pounded, and his face were drained of colour as he faced Moses. “It's none of your business!” He snapped at Moses. Moses' smile widened. “If I don't know any better, I'd say you look flushed. Did you just get laid off?”Andrew took three steps backwards, his hands trembling and his confidence shattering into pieces. “How did you know?!”Moses shrugged. “Well, you were muttering to yourself just now. What a shame. Weren't you just bragging about getting transferred to Rockechilds Empire?”Sweat beads broke out on Andrew's forehead. His job at Feller & Co. was the golden ticket he needed to work at Rockechild's Empire. If everything had gone smoothly as planned, his career would have skyrocketed, as he'll be handling cli

    Moses and Yuri turned up at the venue of Moses' high school reunion. Moses got out and helped Yuri out of the back seat of the taxicab they arrived in. “This is the place?” Yuri asked, glancing at the tall building. Moses checked the address on his invitation card and nodded. “This is Floki's Towers. We're at the correct address.”Floki's Towers was the third-tallest building in the south of the twelve cities. It was owned by none other than Moses' former classmate, Tom Floki who inherited the building from his deceased parents. From the fleet of luxurious cars lining the entrance to the building, Moses wasn't surprised that Tom was the one hosting the event. As Moses and Yuri stepped inside the penthouse together, Moses met the crowd of his high school classmates, all dressed to the tea. Waiters moved gracefully through the crowd, offering each guests' drinks. Moses recognised some of his classmates, but it was Tom Floki who stood out among others. Tom Floki has an unmistaka

    “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.

    Two months ran by like a breeze. Moses was impressed by how fast the infinite castle was getting on. The hotel itself was shaping up to be a masterpiece. Its architecture resembled an ancient Greek palace come alive. Gwen really outdid herself. She estimated the hotel would be finished before December. Moses felt glad. It was two months left before Christmas. He hoped to launch the hotel by new year. At the same time, Moses pursued his banking ambition with as much intensity as he did with the hotel. In his favour, Pete accepted to throw in with Moses and become his partner. With Pete's decades of experience and extensive network of connections, Moses was confident they would easily navigate the regulatory affairs and obtain a banking license. Or so Moses thought. * * * * It was a rainy afternoon. While Moses was inspecting a prospective building he considered buying to start his bank, Pete and Robert Doberman entered the building.

    Westminster's eyes widened. “What did you just say?”“How would you like to complete the free renewable energy project?” Robert Doberman repeated himself. Westminster didn't think he heard correctly. “Robert Doberman, I haven't heard from you in like three years and here you are asking me if I wanted to complete the renewable energy project?”Robert Doberman sighed. “You were the one who forgot about me, Westminster. I'm sure you're aware of my clan's financial crises and yet you refused to reach out to me.”Westminster felt another pang of guilt hit him. “Look, Robert, when you're a man in my position, you're faced with gigantic responsibilities and—”“With all due respect, your excellency, I don't care,” Robert Doberman said. “I only called because I've met an investor who's interested in supporting your project.”Westminster found a chair and sat down. He wanted to digest this information in his bloodstream. “No kidding, and who is this investor?”“You've heard about the Big Boss

    “You destroyed my life for this?” Reinhard yelled. Moses leaned in, his eyes darkened. “This isn't about the license. If you had simply rejected our application, maybe things wouldn't have escalated this far, but you did more than that.”“You imbecile,” Reinhard was shaking with rage. “Do you know how much you've cost me?”“I don't care,” Moses smirked. “You humiliated and dishonored my father by shaving his head off. In the Doberman's tradition, that's an unforgivable sin. You must suffer for the insult you inflicted on my father."Reinhard's face was as hard as nails. “Go ahead, laugh all you want, but this is not over. When I get out of here, I'll destroy you and your entire clan. I swear on my life.”Moses straightened up. “I'll like to see you try. You don't have the connections to do that anymore. The president betrayed you. If there's anyone you want to pick a bone with, it's Westminster.”Reinhard didn't wish to be reminded that his friend, the president, turned his back on h

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

    "...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 Washington Dinner

    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.

    Detention

    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

    The interrogation

    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
