A Father And His Wolves novel Chapter 37

The call lasted about ten minutes.

snap!

As soon as he hung up, Morton Miller’s hand shook and his phone slipped, landing on the floor beneath his feet. His phone was blacked out and turned off.

“What’s wrong?”

Michael Taylor and Connor Scott looked at each other and knew something was wrong.

“It’s him.”

It took a while for Morton Miller to recover from his shock and panic. He gritted his teeth and nodded, “It’s really him! For some reason, he got out of jail two months early!”

“And before he was out, Isaac, the idiot, went to the Hilshire Detention Center to pick a husband for Cecilia. Of all the people in prison, he picked him!”

Hearing that, Michael Taylor and Connor Scott’s hearts sank.

They were not stupid.

What happened five years ago, only the three of them know the details. The Moore family, including Carter Moore and Cecilia, didn’t even know Sean, let alone Isaac.

How did it happen?

Isaac didn’t know Sean when he went to the Hilshire Detention Center, but he chose him.

Apparently, he had been set up!

They couldn’t figure it out. Sean was incarcerated at the Hilshire Detention Center for five years and was removed by the Mason Family of The Capital City. How could he have the power to set Isaac up when he was just a loser?

It was the things you couldn’t figure out that were the worst.

“Was he…”

Michael Taylor said quietly after a moment’s contemplation, “A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Five years ago, after all, he was the Young Mr. Mason, groomed as his successor by the Old Mr. Mason. He must have a lot of his own power under the table.”

“Is it possible that the forces loyal to him five years ago are just trying to get their revenge?”

Connor Scott nodded and said, “It’s very possible!”

“Now, the point is, we don’t know what his influence is in Hilshire, and we don’t know if he has any residual contacts in Capital City.”

“This afternoon at Ricky Mall, he spent all that money, and he hit Luis Sanchez, and Luis Sanchez didn’t even dare fight back. This shows that the hidden forces behind him should not be underestimated.”

Morton Miller looked grave and said, “Not only that!”

Then, Morton Miller told Michael Taylor and Connor Scott about what happened at the gate of the Hilshire Detention Center at noon.

After hearing this, they both turned green!

“Army?”

“How was that possible?”

In the whole Hilshire, Owen Sanchez was the richest and most powerful man. But even Owen Sanchez had connections in the bureaucracy and the army, and couldn’t possibly recruit a serving soldier!

“If my guess is correct, the men in black were sent by the Mason family of the Capital City to deal with Sean.”

Morton Miller took a deep breath and said, “As for the troops, they took Sean, personally delivered him to the Emperor Hotel and betrothed Sean to Cecilia, apparently as his friend rather than his enemy.”

“Also, having Isaac unknowingly pick Sean and then escort him to the Emperor Hotel were obviously two small steps in a larger plan. If the military is involved in the second half, then we have reason to suspect that the military is behind Sean Mason. It was the military, who helped him escape and put the whole plan into effect…”

“Well!”

Michael Taylor jumped to his feet and exclaimed, “So he can command the team???”

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

If that were true, it would be terrible.

No wonder!

No wonder Even Luis Sanchez, when Sean hit him, had to take it. Who the hell would mess with a guy with the military behind him? If he were provoked, as he did this morning, to call a hundred soldiers, each armed with a submachine gun, he could wipe out a whole family in a minute!

Connor Scott was also scared. He glanced up at the clock on the wall, and could not help but congratulate himself. Luckily, he had asked Hudson to book a flight to the Capital City tonight!

Otherwise, if Sean Mason’s revenge came, the consequences would be disastrous!

“Then…”

Michael Taylor reached over and wiped the sweat from his brow, then he said with trepidation, “So what do we do next? We can’t just sit around and wait for him to show up, can we?”

“Five years in prison, plus the death of his mother, Nicola Wright. This is a blood feud. Now that he’s out, he’s not going to stop!”

There was an indescribable desperation in his trembling voice.

“Relax!”

Morton Miller was equally shocked and horrified, but much more composed than Michael Taylor. He thought about it and snorted, “A lean camel is bigger than a horse. So what? We’re the horses. We can’t fight him. But don’t forget, we did it at the behest of the Mason family of the Capital City. His mother, Nicola Wright, died on her knees in front of the Mason family in Capital City.”

“And the Mason family in the Capital City is the real camel!”

“He has a military background. Doesn’t the Mason family in the Capital City have that, too? So, we just need to inform the Mason family in the Capital City of his release as soon as possible, then he will have nowhere to run as soon as they arrive!”

Michael Taylor’s eyes lit up.

“Yes, there’s also the Mason family. The Old Mrs. Mason is now in charge of the Mason family in the Capital City, and she wants to kill him as much as we do! As you just said, the men in black are probably from the Mason family in the Capital City!”

With that, he couldn’t wait to take out the mobile phone said excitedly, “Without further delay, I have the Mason numbers on my cell phone. I’ll call them right away and tell to run a background check on him, and then kill him.”

Morton Miller didn’t stop him.

Speed was now of the essence, and time was running out. If Sean used his military connections to target the three families, they wouldn’t be able to protect themselves. Therefore, they could only hope that the Mason family in the Capital City would attack Sean first and get rid of him before Sean attacked them.

However, when Michael Taylor called, a moment later, he heard a familiar electronic voice on his phone, “Sorry, the number you dialed is busy now, please redial later...”

…

The capital city, the Mason family.

As one of the most powerful families in the Capital City, the Mason family occupied an area of 1 hectare. With tall a lot of buildings and halls, it was very imposing.

In one of the attics, a man in his thirties was holding a mobile phone. As he heard the voice from the phone, his face began to harden and his deep eyes grew colder.

“Sean Mason?”

A moment later, the middle-aged man hung up and said to himself, “What a life force he has! Dozens of people went through and failed to take him down, and made him a live-in son-in-law to the Moore family!”

Then he turned and walked out of the attic and straight into the great hall.
