Could the man who contacted Howard be from Athenapolis too?
Everyone in the room, George included, began to speculate about this mysterious man whom Howard was so intimidated by.
"Ring!"
All of a sudden, George's phone rang. He picked up the call. "Have you found anything?"
Jackson quickly said, "Yes, sir! This Makson fellow."
After hearing Jackson's explanation, George turned to Howard and relayed the message. Essentially, this Makson fellow was one of the most infamous gangsters in the Western Precinct who hundreds of men working for him. He was also the owner of various entertainment centers all over the precinct. Although he was a notorious man, he had someone else backing him up, and that person was none other than Eaden Wafer, one of the three most malicious gangsters in Willoughby!
Howard was so outraged to hear this that he smacked the table and bellowed, "I don't care who this Wafer fellow is, I want him gone! Mr. Nelson, I command you to go to that factory right this instant and stand guard there until this Makson guy shows up! Once he does, I want him captured and tossed into jail no matter what!"
George nodded and scampered out of the room. As soon as he got into his car, he called Jackson and shouted into the phone, "Sergeant Gould, assemble all your men and meet me at the Stone family's factory right now! I want all hands on deck to capture Makson once he shows up! This mission is of the utmost priority, and you have my permission to kill anyone who dares to stand in our way!"
Meanwhile, Liam and the rest of the factory workers stood guard outside the building.
Just as they guessed, a dozen or so vans pulled up again, not long after Makson left. They came in such a large number that the entire factory was surrounded in no time.
At the end of the line was a Mercedes-Benz that screeched to a halt in front of the door.
