Celena was very perturbed to hear this. "Mr. Lane, this is the reason I came here today in the first place! I won't leave until I've settled this!"With that, she turned to Liam. "Liam, why don't you go home first? You were the one who beat that bald man up, and I'm afraid they might take revenge on you! Since I didn't do anything, I'm sure they won't lay a finger on me. If anything I'll call the cops should they show up again!"Liam knew that Celena was worried about his safety, but the truth was, that he was not intimidated by the so-called Makson at all. He replied nonchalantly, "Do you think calling the cops will help? If it would, they would not have managed to terrorize this region for so long! Don't worry, Celena, I'm not afraid of them at all! Have you forgotten why we're here today? I'm here to protect you, so don't worry about me. You should go ahead and settle everything properly. I'll keep an eye out for those rascals!""But," Celena was about to protest, but Liam was al

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 i

Meanwhile, all of his thugs put down their weapons and got onto their knees with their hands above their heads. They were all criminals who were afraid of no one except the law enforcement people, and now that they were all caught red-handed, there was nothing they could do except surrender themselves!They fell to the ground with their arms raised above them, and some of them even got onto their knees to beg for mercy. George tossed the megaphone to someone else, then strode toward Liam and gave him a bow. "I apologize for giving you such a scare, Mr. Cole. My name is George Nelson, and I'm the commissioner in charge of this precinct! I was sent here under Mr. Mosier's orders to arrest these people!"Liam nodded calmly, without a single hint of expression. "Good. you arrived just in time!"George could not help but begin to sweat nervously when he heard this, more so because he was so intimidated by Liam. He never felt so intimidated by someone before, not even the mayor himsel

It would appear that Makson got himself into some deep trouble!"Thud!"Kolten could tell that Eaden finally put two and two together. He was so outraged that he placed his foot against Eaden's chest and snarled, "Well, since he works for you, this means he's your responsibility!"With that, Kolten got on his knees right next to Eaden.Eaden's eyes widened in shock. He began to tremble uncontrollably, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.Why was Kolten kneeling on the ground next to him?Kolten was the richest and most powerful man in Drunham City, and what could make a man of such power get on his knees to beg for forgiveness? Not only that, but he appeared to be waiting for someone.Could it be-Eaden felt a shock go through his entire body as though he was struck by lightning. His ears began to ring. He never thought that he would one day witness Kolten beg for someone's mercy!He inched closer to Kolten and murmured, "Please save me, Mr. Reath! Please! I had n

George, on the other hand, slinked out of the room the moment he put Makson down and deliberately turned a blind eye to what was going on inside. He finally approached Liam when he came out of the room and asked, "Mr. Cole, is there anything else I can help you with?"Liam gazed up at the sky above him and replied, "Keep your mouths shut about everything that happened today! You should know what to answer if my wife's family asks about this."George immediately perked up. "Yes, sir, understood!"With that, George, Kolten, and the rest of the men watched as Liam strode away. It was only until Liam's retreating figure disappeared from view that they felt a wave of relief wash through them.George turned back to glance at Eaden, who was still wiping the sweat off his forehead. He did not say anything, and instead led his men out of there. He would leave Eaden to deal with Makson's dead body himself. Liam returned to Stone Mansion after this. Celena, who waited for him, came out of t
