NovelEnglishChapter 182
George was rather flustered by this. He was so busy to a point that he could not possibly pay attention to every crook and troublemaker in his precinct. The only people that could know this were his subordinates.
Now that Howard was angry about something that happened in his precinct, George knew he had to get to the bottom of this. He took out his phone and called one of his sergeants. "Sergeant Gould, I want all the information on someone named Makson. I need this information sent towithin the next five minutes!"
At this moment, Jackson Gould was sitting in his office in the Western Precinct. He was rather alarmed to receive such a call from George out of nowhere. "Yes, sir! I'll go check right now!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJackson was both puzzled and unnerved by this. He had been working underneath George for a long tnow but never heard him sound so angry.
Makson?
Jackson vaguely recalled hearing this nbefore. He quickly summoned his subordinates and barked out orders to them, "Everyone put down what you're doing right now and find everything you can about a man named Makson! I want all this information on my desk within five minutes!"
"Yes, sir!"
Everyone is set to work.
Meanwhile, Howard was still fuming at the police headquarters. He had his back facing everyone else so that no one could see his expression, but he was both infuriated and terrified. He was angry at George for having been so incompetent, and at the stterrified that Liam would be held responsible for whatever happened at the Stone family's factory.
George, on the other hand, felt as though he was sitting on a pincushion. He was so anxious that his forehead was now covered in beads of cold sweat as he silently cursed his incompetent subordinates. He could not believe how slow they were—why were they taking so long to find out a man's identity?
Meanwhile, everyone else in the meeting room was glancing among themselves in confusion, but no one dared to utter a word.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What happened, Mr. Mosier? Who was the person on the phone just now? What did he say that made you so angry?" one of the commissioners who felt rather brave at that moment asked.
Howard spun around in his seat and cast them all a dark look. "Angry? Why do you think I'm angry? I'm not—I'm terrified! I'm nothing compared to the man on the phone just now! I'm just the chief commissioner of this city, but even then I wouldn't dare to get on this man's bad side! Even our mayor has to be at his beck and call. Do you remember what happened to the Walkers? Well, this man is the mastermind behind their downfall! He calledjust now because his wife's factory in the Western Precinct was terrorized by a gangster named Makson, and he was fuming! Con, everyone. I've already told you all to tighten the security in your precincts, and yet you have allowed something like this to happen! What were you thinking, Mr. Nelson? Just because you have a death wish doesn't mean you should bringdown with you!"
George felt his heart leap into his throat. He inadvertently crossed a man whom even their mayor had to show respect to. He could not even begin to imagine what the consequences were if he allowed this man's wife's territory to continue being terrorized.
As for the Walkers, everyone heard of what happened. Everything related to the Walkers was sealed in a highly confidential file that only Howard was allowed access to, so although they were all at the scene, neither of them knew exactly what happened except the rumors.
The Walkers were such an elite family that neither of them even met them before, but ever since what happened, the Walkers' file was sent away to Athenapolis so no one could pry on what happened. Whatever happened was highly confidential!
