2024-08-02 19:34:29A servant was waiting for Moses with a small luggage. They contained all his clothes.
Because Moses was poor, he didn't have many properties. Just a few clothes and one shoe.
“Thank you,” he collected the luggage from the servant and headed straight for the gates.
He didn't take the scooter. It didn't belong to him, after all.
“Lucas Gates... then let my revenge start with you!” Moses's expression darkened as he took out his phone and dialed Genevieve's number.
Genevieve answered on the first ring. “Good morning, Mr. Moses. How can I assist you today?”
“Genevieve, does Rockechilds Empire have the capacity to ruin Gates Group?” Moses asked, his voice cold.
“Gates Group? Sorry, Mr. Moses, I’ve never heard of that group. I only handle investments over 10 billion dollars; their asset scale might not even be enough...”
Genevieve hurriedly explained, fearing that Moses would be angry.
Moses was taken aback; he didn’t expect that the Gates family, which seemed so wealthy in the eyes of the Momo family, was nothing to his business empire.
“It’s fine, I just want to teach the Gates family a lesson... their heir Lucas has made me very angry.
Moses said calmly. Genevieve, hearing Moses's words, was furious.
“What? That trash actually dared to provoke our chairman? Please wait 10 minutes, I will make sure the Gates family gets the punishment they deserve!”
Moses hung up the phone; he understood the strength of the Rockechilds, but 10 minutes?
However, just 5 minutes later, Genevieve called back.
“Boss! We have already investigated the Gates family's background; they have no real power at all!”
Genevieve said proudly. “Our financial experts made a slight move in the stock market, and the Gates family's stocks started to plummet!”
“They even tried to stop the loss by investing in Rockechilds, but we crushed them like killing an ant!”

“This is the best thing that's ever happened to the MOMO family,” Madame Aurora celebrated as she popped open a champagne.
“Let's celebrate.” she poured wine into Valeria's glass. “With the Gates Group backing us up, we'll be unstoppable.” Lucas laughed as he handed her his glass. “Take it easy, Madame Aurora. The Gate Group won't disappoint you. As we speak, Gate Group invested heavily in Rockechilds' shares. Money is never our problem.” Madame Aurora's eyes widened. “That's the Gate Group for you. I'm blown away by how wealthy your family is.” Valeria smiled, linking her arm in Lucas'. “Lucas was the perfect choice, grandmother. I never understood why you hooked me up with a loser like Moses from the very start,” Valeria pouted. “I couldn't stand him.” “Matching you and Moses was my greatest mistake,” Madame Aurora admitted. “I hadn't foreseen the Doberman's downfall. If I could turn back the hands of time, I would have paired you off with Lucas a long time ago.” “Can we stop talking about that piece of garbage?" Lucas yawned. “He's old school. Gate Group is worth over $9 billion. The Doberman clan can never smell that kind of money in a hundred years.” “You'll make a fantastic grandson-in-law,” Madame Aurora grinned, then turned to Valeria. “You have proven to me you're worthy of being my successor, Valeria.” Valeria felt pleased. “Really? Thank you, grandmother. I promise I won't disappoint you.” Just then, Lucas' phone buzzed in his pocket. “Talk of the devil, it's my dad,” Lucas laughed as he brought out his phone. “What a perfect timing. He'd be thrilled to hear you accepted my proposal.” Lucas answered the call. “Hello, dad. You won't believe it. Valeria divorced her shitty husband and accepted my proposal.” “Who the hell cares about that?” Lucas' father yelled. “What have you done to us?” Lucas didn't like the tone of his father's voice. “I don't get it, dad. I haven't done anything.” “You imbecile,” his father shouted. “Rockechilds Empire sold off all the shares we invested in. Our stocks are plummeting like crazy. We're losing millions of dollars every second. So far, we've lost over $600 million in five minutes.”"The Gates family is completely doomed this time!"

Epilogue
A year later, Claude Laurent stood in court, drenched in sweat. His hands trembled as he gripped the table in front of him, his face pale like a ghost. He now looked like a broken man. The courtroom was packed with reporters and spectators.At the front of the room, Moses sat with a cigarette between his fingers, watching Claude quietly. Before Claude lay a stack of legal documents, waiting for his signature. He was about to hand over his prized hotel to Moses without collecting a single dime.The Imperial Twin Hotel had crushed all competition in its first year, raking in over $60 billion in revenue. It had become a global sensation which attracted the wealthiest patrons, celebrities, and business moguls from all over the world. On the other hand, Diamond Fountain suffered. Its bookings plummeted overnight. Within that same year, they signed for bankruptcy. According to the legal agreement between Moses and Claude, Diamond Fountain Hotel now belonged to Moses. For free!W
The Endgame
Word spread like wildfire across Ice City. The Imperial Hotel was undergoing a massive transformation. The houses surrounding the Imperial Hotel had been purchased and demolished, making way for a sprawling new foundation. Cranes could be seen towering over the site, and workers bustling about, laying the groundwork.Moses called for a press conference, inviting journalists from every major news outlet in the city. The event was held in a temporary conference hall near the construction site, and the room was packed with reporters, photographers, and curious onlookers.Moses stepped onto the stage, dressed in a sharp black suit. He stood at the podium and addressed the crowd. “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here today. I’m Floyd Westchester, and I’m here to announce the future of the Imperial Hotel.”He paused, allowing the murmurs of surprise to ripple through the crowd. No one recognized his name, but this was what Moses wanted. Until this project is completed, Mos
Claude's Challenge
Moses was taken aback by Claude’s sudden outburst. The man’s cheerful expression had vanished, replaced by a storm of anger and resentment. Moses raised his hands slightly, trying to defuse the tension. “Whoa, hold on. Why do you say ‘over my dead body’? What’s your issue with the Imperial Hotel?”Claude’s face twisted with bitterness as he leaned forward, his hands gripping the edge of his desk. “Madame Aurora,” he spat the name like it was poison. “She made my life a living hell. I was once an employee at the Imperial Hotel, loyal and dedicated. But no matter how hard I worked, it was never enough for her.” “She belittled me, humiliated me, and treated me like dirt. I vowed to destroy her and everything she stood for. And I did. I built Diamond Fountain Hotel to surpass hers, to crush her legacy. I won’t let her name or her hotel rise again—not as long as I’m alive.”Moses sat in stunned silence, processing Claude’s words. It seemed Madame Aurora’s cruelty had come full circle.

Second chance
The funeral for Madame Aurora was a small, quiet, affair, held in the grand hall of the Imperial Hotel. Only members of the Momo family were present during the funeral. Apart from them, there were scarcely anyone else aside Moses who had come to pay his last respect.Moses and Yuri stood at the back, observing quietly.Madame Aurora had once been a formidable figure in her earlier years. Her death marked the end of an era as the most powerful matriarch across the twelve cities. After the funeral, Valeria approached Moses and Yuri. “Moses, my grandmother left something for you. It’s in the study. Would you come with me?” she asked softly. Moses exchanged a glance with Yuri before nodding. They followed Valeria to a private study on the upper floor of the hotel. The room was dimly lit, lined with towering shelves of old books. A grand mahogany desk stood at its center.Seated behind the desk was Glenn. "It's been ages, Moses," Glenn said, smiling stiffly. "I'm glad you could m
Valeria
Moses felt like a heavy weight had been lifted off his shoulder after resolving the royal family conflict. A month after, Benjamin was crowned king at the ripe age of sixteen. Moses settled down in the United Kingdom Of Niklauria and live together with his new family. A week after Benjamin’s coronation, Moses was enjoying his quiet time, surfing on the royal palace's private beach. As he was prepared to ride another round of waves, Yuri approached him.“There’s someone here to see you.”Moses looked up, his brow furrowing. “Who is it? I'm about to ride another wave.”Yuri stepped aside and gestured for the visitor to come forward. A woman stepped forward, her head bowed, and her hands clasped tightly in front of her. Moses’s eyes widened in shock as he instantly recognized her.“Valeria?” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. It was his ex-wife, Valeria, from the Momo family. Moses hadn’t seen her in seventeen years—not since the Momo family disappeared from the twelve
