Nucky, returning to Atlantic City, had never imagined that within just a few days of his leaving, earth-shattering events had taken place.
Ponzi had vanished, the Commodore had fallen!
Each of these incidents alone would have been enough to shake Atlantic City to its core, yet they happened simultaneously.
"Boss, the Commodore had deep roots in Atlantic City, and he also had significant ties in Washington, so he shouldn't have fallen so easily, right?"
Louis, who had returned from Washington with Nucky, also received the two pieces of news at the same time.
"The man has had a stroke, all his connections are gone. Just you watch, his children in New York will come back at the first opportunity to sell all his assets in Atlantic City!"
Nucky's face was devoid of joy; the Commodore meant much more to him than just an enemy.
