Clearly Cedric and Ian's plans were not received in a positive light by the gangs. They had so many doubts and questions in their minds.
"Calm down, Manuel!" Ray said in a powerful voice, making the gang leader back down.
Everyone turned their attention to the king of the underworld. He may have let Cedric take the head of the table and control the meeting, but these were his people, they still followed him above all.
"There is a reason why I allowed Cedric to coordinate this plan." Ray was calm now, scarily calm. It seemed that he was more dangerous calm than angry, something that was clearly painted on the faces of his people.
"My apologies, your majesty." The man that Ray called Manuel said as he bowed his head, embarrassed that he had challenged Ray's authority.
