Delgado and Whitman glared at the third one, who, even after Leon Clavon invited Tristan to the meeting, spoke against the boss's authority.
"I thought your father taught you better manners, Martinez, than to speak in such a tone in your boss's presence!" Delgado said.
"If he was invited, then Mr. Clavon needs Hayes's skill. Which he had proved more than once, as we all know," added Whitman.
Leon slammed his palms on the table, making all three freeze.
"Enough. We are here to make plans, not to waste time on your squabbles. Tristan is here, because I believe he will be useful, just like he was already. He brought in the information, without which we'd have nothing to make plans about!"
Everybody watched intently as Leon spread a large map on the table.
"After the challenge I sent, the Mexicans are gathering forces for a decisive strike. But we will strike faster, and to the place it will hurt the most. Here."
