I built a billion-dollar empire just to see my mother smile. I came home early from a merger to find her kneeling on the marble floor, scrubbing it with a toothbrush while my wife poured red wine over her head. “Missed a spot, you old peasant!” my wife screamed. My mom just sobbed, “Please, my back…” My wife laughed, “If you tell my husband, I’ll put you in a cage.” She didn’t see me in the doorway. I didn’t say a word. But the revenge I unleashed over the next 24 hours would make her beg for the very mercy she had just denied the woman who gave me life.

“You useless hag! You can’t even make soup right? Are you trying to poison us?” My daughter-in-law smashed a steel ladle against my temple, blood and broth running down my face. I looked to my son for help. But he… he just coldly picked up the remote and turned up the TV volume to drown out my cry of pain. He didn’t know that the ‘leech’ mother he just kicked out with $200 in her pocket was actually the secret owner of 13 buildings, including the apartment he lived in.

After years of no contact, my mother suddenly showed up at my restaurant. “Your sister’s unemployed—hand this place over to her,” she demanded. When I offered her a server position instead, she shoved me and splashed water in my face. “She’s precious—how dare you make her serve?” she screamed. I didn’t cry. I just replied coldly, “Then get used to being homeless.” She had no idea whose house they were living in…
