Chapter 10: Back with my love

Jane then quickly drove into Richard's Compound, outside of Seattle, and then the guards quickly closed the door.

As she got out Richard came out and asked, "What happened? Didn't you see the judge?"

"According to my girlfriend, it was a sting operation. She gave all the right information. It was like what you feared. She says she can move it," replied Jane to him.

Richard exhaled and said, "That is my father. And it involves me going to talk to him."

"Why," Jane quickly asked him.

Richard then said, "Well I heard my father's side. It adds up and my grandparents are murdering pieces of shit. And because of me, Moore Corporations could fail. I messed up."

"Hey! Hey! Your father doesn't hate you. Go talk to him," replied Jane to him.

Richard then said, "We laundered money through Red Garden and it is owned by Celia Anderson. And if she gets my dad to move the money he will murder you for it. I can get him to forgive you for going to my grandparents.

But laundering money through his favorite girl's name he will end you."

Jane then said, "Go talk to him. We will deal with everything else."

Richard then walked to his Mustang and drove.

Half an hour later

Richard walked into The Warehouse, a Club under the Moore Clubs & Bars Limited.

They were decorating with the Showcase billboard hit records of Moore Music Group.

As Michael watched Richard said, "Opening of Moore Business City/Moore Corporations Launch on Monday at 9 am. Then you fired on Alpha Music Group with a showcase on Tuesday. By Wednesday you will be the king."

"We will be the Royal family of life. We are the Moore family. It is a pity your aunt isn't paying for us anymore. She would have done wonders at Moore Entertainment Group.

She got us heavily into the liquor and club business," replied Michael to her.

Richard then asked, "What happened to Aunt Jacqueline?"

"Well, she is into the restaurant thing. She is working for Crust Bakery & Grill as a food and beverage critic. Plus Decor design for locations.

So she is on 9 months leave of absence from Moore Entertainment Group. But according to the FBI, she is a part of Joseph's $4 Billion monthly money Laundering ring for the International Cartels," replied Michael to him.

Richard then said, "She would never betray you. She hates your father."

"She also likes to keep secrets. And she was close to your mom. Those two are combinations for disaster with my father.

He tends to use your weaknesses to his advantage. And with that your fear of not letting the truth be known makes you do anything," replied Michael to him.

Richard then said, "Well I am glad I am a party Playboy. My life is an open book. The best part of my life is my education. I spend my money on luxury parties and fancy stuff."

"Free publicity for Moore Engineering Group. I put you there because you will be in charge of most engineering projects.

And the publicity your lifestyle generates would be great for us building something," replied Michael to him.

Richard then asked, "Then why are Moore Technologies Llc. and Moore Mobile Group subsidiaries of Moore Communications Group and not on my portfolio?"

"Because telecommunications falls into the portfolio of Moore Communications Group plus Moore Technologies Llc. manufactures: computers, circuit boards, electrical supplies, electrical equipment, Cellphones, Security features, Appliances, and smart home tech.

They navigate towards Communications and protection. So it stays where it is. But that's not why you drove 20 miles," replied Michael to him.

Richard exhaled and said, "No! It has to do with the Donovan trouble your in."

Michael looked at him. Moments later he dropped in his Executive President's seat, in his office at Moore Towers.

As Michael hung his head in shame Micah said, "Say something."

"You spoke to my crazy ass parents. And believed I murdered Diana and blamed me," replied Michael to him.

Richard then said, "Had you tell me the truth we wouldn't be here."

Michael stroked the table and said, "You don't get to turn this on me. You knew what your grandparents were capable of. I told you about the International Cartels."

"Yea! But you didn't tell me they murdered mom for trying to exposing them. And I know Richmond was forced to do it," replied Richard to him.

Michael swallowed and asked, "How did you know that?"

"Mom left a safety deposit box only to be opened by me. The law firm that oversaw it had strict orders not to give it to me unless my grandfather or anyone from his organization reached out to me.

I disappeared for two years to hunt them down," replied Richard to him.

Michael exhaled and hit the seal button. The security blindfolds then closed the doors and the shutters. Then the wall computer activated.

The Genesis, AI, in a woman's voice said, "Sir they are not authorized to see this."

"Authorization code 6-3-7-5 Alpha. Grant access to everyone in this room" replied Michael to her.

With those images of 24 men popped up on the screen. Then various accident deaths of the men popped up. Then another set popped up. Then 24 accidents showed them dead. It went on for 23 other sets and all were eliminated.

Then 24 popped up and Richard asked, "What are they?"

"They are the 24 dragon heads that help my father rule the International Cartels. They control the Criminal underworld of the world.

The Carlow Cartels are the tip of the spear. I and the Spartacus Syndicate keep them out of the USA, Canada, and Thailand. We control the criminal Underworld here," replied Michael as he sat on his desk.
