The Guardian's Return Chapter 276
George realized that the benefits he offered were totally useless to Ethan. How could he possibly convince him?After a long silence, George said, “For the sake of our past friendship, just help me once.”“What friendship?” Ethan asked, “The kind where you sent me to jail?”George fell quiet. He had nothing else to say and thought he could not convince Ethan anymore. Besides, he had no leverage to persuade him, except to release him. However, that was impossible. Once Ethan left and exposed the truth to the public, all of their efforts would be in vain. George turned and left without another word. He could not handle this. He planned to discuss it further with Stephen to see if anyone else besides Ethan could get Dr. Rodman Rodman to help. George left the mansion and called Stephen on the side of the road, telling him about the situation. “He refused to help?” Stephen sighed in his heart. The outcome was expected. “Let me think of another way.” He hung up. After thinking a

Soon, he saw George in front of the mansion.“He refuses to help.” George said exasperatedly, “He wants a life for a life. To use my life in exchange for the village chief’s life.”Stephen frowned. Although he knew Ethan was quite ruthless, he did not expect him to be this brutal, demanding George’s death blatantly. Although the village chief was important, George was more useful to him. “Don’t worry. I’ve come for his help now. We’re like old rivals now. He shouldn’t sit back and do nothing.”Stephen walked to the door and noticed that it was tightly shut. “Why did he close the door?” Stephen was surprised. George was also curious. “The door was still open when I came out. It’s only been half an hour. When did the door close? Could it be that he doesn’t want to see me?”George felt a little hurt. After all, he had taken care of Ethan for three years. Sure, he locked him up in the mountains and wanted him to solve his problem, but was it enough to warrant being shut out?S

After being scolded, George quietly stepped back and stopped talking. By midnight, Stephen almost could not feel his legs anymore while George sat on the stone bench and fell asleep, resting his head on a stone table. At 2 a.m., Stephen was tired and sleepy. His body swayed slightly in the cold wind. Although the area outside the mansion was lit, he somehow felt a sense of loneliness, coldness, and fear. Where was George?He looked around, trying to find someone to accompany him, but he saw George deep in slumber when he turned around. Stephen was speechless. For a moment, he did not know what to say. He stood there, tired and struggling, only to make Ethan help them once. And yet, George had fallen asleep!He was sleepy too!But he could not rest now. This matter could affect his future. At 6 a.m., Stephen had stood for the entire night. His body was stiff as if it had turned to stone. He could not feel his legs. Besides, his body felt unbearably heavy, as if a mounta

What was going on? Why did Stephen suddenly kneel to Ethan?Simon had just said that Stephen was sacrificing for Celestial City while Ethan was cold and ruthless. Now, Stephen was kneeling to Ethan, which was like saying his so-called sacrifice was kneeling to Ethan, begging him to solve Celestial City’s problems!In the meeting room, everyone watched Simon with doubtful eyes. “Is this your son’s sacrifice?”What sacrifice? All he did was bring trouble to Celestial City and kneel to beg someone. Was that his contribution? Simon gulped. How could he explain this? Stephen had knelt to Ethan in front of everyone. He could not talk his way out of it!He regretted it now. He should not have connected the video to the big screen. Otherwise, only he would know about Stephen kneeling to Ethan. The others would not have seen it!His clever plan had backfired!“Get up now!” Simon roared into his phone. Stephen heard him and wanted to get up. He had wanted to stand up since he returne

Simon had someone get Dr. Rodman’s contact information, and soon, they obtained his phone number. In the meeting room, one of them dialed Dr. Rodman’s number. They stated their identity and promised Dr. Rodman many benefits as long as he saved Lucas. Dr. Rodman knew it would be hard to refuse them this time. After all, it was a call from the federal government, and he could not go against them alone.He could only say, “I can help, but let me see Mr. Rivers first.”The group looked at Ethan. They could not understand why so many people sided with him. Contacting Dr. Rodman directly was their last resort, so they had to agree to his request and let him see Ethan. Half an hour later, Dr. Rodman finally met Ethan. “Mr. Rivers!” Dr. Rodman was excited. “So you’re here. A lot has happened in Riveria while you were gone.”Ethan nodded. “I know. But telling me this is pointless. I don’t manage Riveria anymore; they do.”Ethan looked at Stephen and George. They slightly lowered t

Ethan did not explain anything and bluntly said that he intended to openly slander them, just like what they had done to him. He was simply giving them a taste of their own medicine!However, Stephen and the others had no way to refute him or explain. They did have evidence of Stephen trying to save Lucas, including standing outside Ethan’s door for the whole night, but could they upload it?It was a scene of Stephen kneeling to Ethan!If they spread the video, it could expose Ethan’s lies, but what were the consequences?Stephen, the Grand Marshal’s student, who restored peace to Riveria three years ago, finally met Ethan after waiting for a night. He even knelt to Ethan the moment he saw him. How could they bear this humiliation?Therefore, it was clear that they could not release the evidence. The people in the meeting room were all horrified. Ethan had them completely under his control. Even if they had the evidence, it was futile.If they did not use it, Stephen would be

The sudden turn of events stunned the men surrounding Ethan, but they reacted quickly, pointing their guns at Ethan. “What are you doing?” Elijah was drenched in cold sweat.“How dare you point a gun at me? Put the guns down now!”Ethan was obviously using him as a human shield. If his subordinates opened fire, while Ethan would die, he would die sooner!Hearing their leader’s orders, the men could only lower their guns. “Why don’t we talk it out?” Elijah sounded weaker. “Let me go first, and we’ll find somewhere to talk. What do you say?”Ethan knew he was deceiving him. As long as he moved the gun away, Elijah would have a chance to fight back. “Spare me these tricks you’d use on children.”Elijah went silent for a moment and said, “Calm down. If I die, you’ll have no way out either.”Ethan smiled faintly. “I came alone and was surrounded by a hundred of your men. I don’t think I can leave alive. If I’m going to die anyway, it’s not too bad to have you accompany me.”Elija

He wanted to kill the person responsible for putting him in this situation!However, when he raised his gun, appearing to aim at Ethan, it also seemed like he was targeting the South Regent!The South Regent’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately fired. Bang!With a gunshot, the bullet struck Elijah right in the middle of his forehead.Elijah’s eyes widened as he fell backward, his fingers still repeatedly pulling the trigger. Click. Click. Click. There was no gunshot! Elijah held an empty gun!The South Regent immediately widened his eyes in shock, watching the scene in disbelief. He had been tricked! Ethan used him to kill Elijah!The South Regent stared at Ethan. “You knew there were no bullets in his gun, so you used my hand to kill him!”Ethan smiled. “A man like that wasn’t worth dirtying my hands.”He took out the empty magazine and casually threw it to the South Regent. “Thanks.”Thanks?The South Regent was not pleased in the least bit. He knew he ha
