"Answer it."
Bernardo Mason waved his hand and said, "Luis Sanchez doesn't know the details of Sean's release, but they should. Find it out."
"Okay."
Bell nodded and got Michael Taylor on the phone.
The call lasted less than ten minutes.
Bell's expression, however, changed again and again.
"What's wrong?"
Bernardo Mason had a keen eye. As Soon as Bell hung up, he looked up and, of course, he saw something in Bell's face.
"My Lord, there seems to be something wrong."
Said Bell in a hushed voice, "When they learned Sean was getting out early, they immediately sent someone to investigate the situation…"
He repeated exactly what Michael Taylor had said.
"The army???"
Even the stolid Bernardo Mason winced at the harsh word. He frowned and said, "How can he command an army in his current position?"
"That's what's wrong."
Bell said anxiously, "You and the Old Mrs. Mason were forced to spare his life. Now, it turns out he hasn't given up on revenge during his years in prison, and there are people behind him."
The result was far beyond Bernardo Mason's expectations.
Old institutions died hard.
Bernardo Mason didn't buy the idea that Sean was being backed up to try to make a comeback. However, it was hard to believe that someone had sent troops to pick Sean up at the prison gate.
Was he stupid?
The Mason family in the Capital City today was far more powerful than it was five years ago. Even if someone wanted to help Sean get revenge, the logical thing to do would be to lay low, hide out, and avoid the Mason family as much as possible.
But they chose the simplest, most direct, and most brutal way!
Openly antagonizing the Mason family?
Weren't they afraid that the Mason family would find out who they were and kill them all?
They were either stupid or they had nothing to fear!
"Find it out!"
Bernardo Mason snorted, "It took us five years to purge the legacy of the Old Mr. Mason and Parker. We basically cleaned up everything we could find, but some of them were hidden so deep that we couldn't find them out."
"Now, Sean just got out of jail, and they can't wait to jump out. That's fine. Take this opportunity to pull out all of them one by one, exterminate the roots, and we'll never have trouble!"
He looked extremely cold.
"Okay!"
Bell nodded, "I'll arrange it tomorrow. Movements in the army are documented, and it shouldn't be hard to figure out who they are and who's behind them."
"What are you gonna do about Sean? Michael Taylor is terrified that Sean will retaliate against them at any moment."
Bell didn't care if Michael Taylor and others lived or died.
He was worried that if Sean went after Michael Taylor and the others, there would be a lot of fuss going on in Hilshire, then, what happened five years ago would probably come to the fore.
Gossip was a fearful thing.
The Mason family might be powerful, but the more powerful a person was, the more he cared about his reputation.
"Let Reid do it."
Bernardo Mason thought about it and said quietly, "Sean is good at fighting, and there's a good chance he's surrounded by people who protect him. Most people wouldn't be able to get him, but with Reid's skill, it's a shoo-in."
"Do what you can! Catch him alive!"
Bernardo Mason snorted, "His life is still of some use to us. First, I can catch the hidden forces behind him. Second, I can force Parker to obey. Third, I'm going to torture him and make him wish he were dead!"
"That's brilliant."
Bell gave him a compliment, "I'll have Reid up to Hilshire overnight, and the Old Mrs. Mason…"
"I'll tell her." Said Bernardo Mason.
"Okay!"
Bell nodded and turned to go when Bernardo Mason seemed to think of something, "Wait!"
"Anything else?"
Bell paused.
Bernardo Mason asked, "You were saying that Cecilia Moore, that woman, gave birth to Sean's daughter?"
"Yes."
Bell nodded and said, "Phyllis Moore, four years old."
"Phyllis Moore…"
Bernardo Mason repeated several times, then he said coldly, "Owen Sanchez had an axe to grind and had his son throw himself at us, was he not trying to get involved with our Mason family? Fine. I'll give him a chance."
"Call Luis Sanchez back, and have him kidnap Phyllis tomorrow morning, and then you have Reid show up in Hilshire with a bottle of Colored Glaze Holy Water, put it in Phyllis, and see what happens."
At this, Bell's face suddenly changed.
"You mean…"
Bell grew up in the Mason family and was trusted by Bernardo Mason for nearly 20 years. He knew all about the Mason family and knew a lot of dark secrets.
Including Colored Glaze Holy Water Bernardo Mason mentioned.
"Do as I say."
Bernardo Mason said coldly, "After all, she has a lineage of the Mason family. Although the possibility is very small, but, just in case!"
"If it is as I fear, have Reid take her back to the Capital City with him!"
Bell asked, "What if it's not?"
"No?"
Bernardo Mason raised his eyes with a cold look, "Do I have to teach you? Due to the Mason family, she was doomed from the moment she was born."
"She'll either die in the Capital City or in Hilshire!"
Bell's heart trembled slightly. Bernardo Mason had asked him to kill hundreds of people over the years. He was a killer.
But he never killed a child.
It was so cruel!
