The Guardian's Return Chapter 594
Although Victor knew the truth, he had no qualms about distorting it. He painted Stephen as an idle and useless person who tried to claim credit for others’ hard work.Naturally, Victor did not say that he leaked the information. He said that a janitor overheard the news when she was cleaning and even recorded the conversation.When Stephen came to confront him, he would simply fire the janitor.As soon as the news was released, with the help of the netizens, it immediately attracted the attention of many people on the internet.“Is Stephen a dog? How could he try to steal credit?”“I can’t believe it. He really is useless. He’s been doing nothing all this time, but now that Victor is helping, he’s trying to claim credit.”“I want to beat him up. How could the Grand Marshal’s mentee be someone like him?”“Stephen isn’t that different from that trash, Ethan. With people like them around, it’s no wonder Riveria fell.”“Victor, please save Riveria. You’re our final hope!”Stephen

“Victor just arrived, but he already came up with solutions.”“There’s no comparison at all. They’re both young masters from Metropolis. How could they be so different? Was Stephen only focused on the pleasures of life?”“Stephen is a disgrace to all the young masters in Metropolis. Fortunately, Victor came and turned things around.”Stephen also saw Victor’s announcement. After reading it, he looked at the other news online, then silently returned to his room and closed the door. He did not come out for a long time.Stephen fell into self-doubt. He never thought of these solutions. The issues that were incredibly tricky to him were resolved so easily by Victor as if it were just a daily occurrence.People had always called him a giant among men, and fortune tellers said that he would achieve great things, but when he thought about everything he was going through now, he felt like all of that was just flattery.At that moment, Edward and Tyler also saw the news and frowned.“He’

Many investors were tricked without even realizing it.Throughout the process, as the managers of the company, the Spencers did not receive a single dime.Edward and Tyler knew that Victor was no longer even pretending. He was openly signaling that they were just pawns he could discard at any time. They felt deeply resentful.The Spencers had experienced countless setbacks over the years, especially three years ago with Marcus’s death and the decline of the family. However, they managed to get through it.Now, Victor was forcing them into a desperate situation. Once Victor abandoned the Spencers, it would be completely over for them.“We can’t let that happen,” Edward muttered.Tyler asked, “What can we do?”They could not think of any solutions.“If only Marcus were still alive...” Tyler could only think of Marcus. Marcus was the genius of the Spencers. His talent and skill far surpassed even Edward. However, Marcus had already died as part of Ethan’s plan.“Alas.” Edward sig

Edward and Tyler could not help but feel envious. While they were standing outside under the sun, Ethan was inside, napping comfortably. The difference was immense.The two looked at the jug and the cups on the table but did not dare to drink. They had once challenged Ethan, but now, they did not even dare to breathe loudly in front of him. Even if their throats were burning from thirst, they did not dare to pour themselves water without Ethan’s permission.“Get yourself some water if you’re thirsty,” Ethan said calmly.Only then did Tyler pour a glass of water. He first pushed it in front of Ethan, then gave the second cup to his father and the third for himself.After drinking the cool mountain spring water, they both felt rejuvenated. They both drank three cups each before finally feeling completely revived.“From how you look, I already know why you’re here.” Ethan’s voice made Edward and Tyler freeze in their tracks. They nervously looked at Ethan.“What is your answer, Mr.

Edward and Tyler sized up the South Regent. The Spencers and the South Regent had always been enemies. They even fought with each other at Hill City. Why was the South Regent inviting them to dinner so enthusiastically now?Edward asked with a serious face, “Are you here just to mock us?”The South Regent laughed. “Of course not.” Although part of the reason he approached them was indeed to mock them, he also had other motives.“I know the predicament you’re in now. I came to you because I want to work with you,” the South Regent said. “I plan to get involved in Breeze City.”Edward instantly understood. The South Regent wanted to take advantage of the chaos to enter Breeze City, set roots there, and continuously extract benefits from it.It was just like what he had done in Hill City and Celestial City!If the South Regent succeeded, his power would grow even stronger, and a large amount of Riveria’s money would flow out of the borders. This was not good news for anyone living i
The Guardian's Return Chapter 599
Edward and Tyler looked at the South Regent with wide eyes. They believed that he was telling the truth. Cooperating with them to get benefits was just an afterthought. His real goal was to confront the Hughes family.Edward frowned and asked, “Are you confident?”The Hughes family was formidable. Although they could not compare to the Quinns, they were still a prestigious family from Metropolis. Ordinary families in smaller cities and the backward foreign forces could not match up to them.The South Regent smiled. “How will I know if I don’t try?” He looked at the two again. “Well? Should we work together? This might be a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity to prove ourselves.”They knew very well that they were no match for Ethan, but if they could defeat Victor, it would prove that they were not that incompetent. It was just that Ethan was too powerful.“Okay.” Edward thought about it carefully and agreed to work together.“Good.” The South Regent raised his glass. “I look forward
The Guardian's Return Chapter 600
“Is that all?” Victor narrowed his eyes.“There’s something else,” the South Regent slowly said. “Back then, I was focused on escaping from Ethan and did not get the chance to face Rhys. I want to see the kind of strength you have for being able to defeat Rhys.”Victor was speechless. “You’re insane.”He did not expect the South Regent to choose to oppose them for such a reason. More importantly, he did not expect that the rumor about them defeating Rhys Estrela would bring them new enemies.“You’re scared,” the South Regent said, “Although I’ve never fought against Rhys, I know a bit about him. You couldn’t have won against him if this is all the courage you have.”He was not afraid of the Hughes family. He dared to challenge Ethan in the past. Although he was let go by Ethan or escaped miserably, he survived Ethan multiple times.After being tortured by the terrifying Ethan for so long, he truly did not think much of the Hughes family’s strength.Victor’s heart sank. He did no

Rachel had a favorable impression of Victor because he was handsome. Although he could not compare to Stephen, his disposition was slightly better than Stephen’s, just like Theo was.Victor smiled. “I came to see you.”“Huh?” Rachel was a little surprised.“I know you liked Theo,” Victor said, “and I have something to tell you.”“What is it?” Rachel immediately narrowed her eyes. Her relationship with Theo was a secret. Even Stephen did now know about it, so how did Victor know? Was he planning to use that information to threaten her?“Stephen caused Theo’s death.” Victor handed over a document. “This contains information on Theo’s family situation.”Rachel took the document, and as she read it, her expression instantly turned dark.It detailed how Theo was once the heir of a prominent family, but Stephen destroyed the Harlow family. With the Harlows wiped out, Theo was separated from his sister.Theo did not dare to get revenge but wanted to find his sister and protect her.

After everything was settled, the people from HQ went to Ethan again. They apologized to him and begged for his forgiveness.“We’ve dealt with everyone involved in this matter. Are you satisfied with the outcome, Mr. Rivers?”With that, they lowered their heads to the ground nervously. Their only hope now hinged on Ethan’s response.They did not dare to ask for much. All they hoped for was that Ethan would not leave the country.Ethan glanced at them calmly and said, “Send someone to help move my stuff down the mountain.”Hearing that, everyone was first stunned, and then ecstatic.“Of course!” they replied in unison.They understood what Ethan meant. He was staying! Although it was not his complete forgiveness, he was willing to give them another chance.They were all overjoyed. As long as Ethan did not leave, there was plenty of time to slowly make amends.They took out their phones and made arrangements to help Ethan move.After the call ended, they said, “We respectfully

The day of Rachel and George’s trial came.The livestream began at 10 a.m., and hundreds of thousands of viewers joined instantly.Rachel and George slowly walked into the courtroom in handcuffs.Bang! The judge’s gavel fell, and the room went silent.It was not a lawsuit. It was a trial to expose the sins of Rachel and George.The judge read out their crimes one by one, until Rachel and George’s faces paled to the point that they looked like corpses.The viewers in the livestream finally saw the full picture.“So that’s it! The Quinns and the Lowes conspired!”“They deserve to die! How could they frame Ethan like that? Are they even human?”“The death penalty! They deserve the death penalty!”They were all furious.Many people had lost their families as a result of supporting Stephen and scolding Ethan. After watching the livestream, they realized just how deeply they had been wrong.They were accomplices to the Quinns and the Lowes' crimes in framing Ethan!Their current

They suppressed their disgust and returned home, only to see their parents and wives’ panicked expressions.“What did you do out there?”“So many people came today, asking for you by name.”How were they supposed to answer those questions? They could not just say that they had insulted Ethan online.If they did, their parents would beat them to death before anyone else could.“It’s nothing,” they replied stiffly. They had no choice but to hide the truth. After all, they could not say that they had insulted Ethan, or that they had lost their jobs.However, the next second, their parents received text messages. After their parents glanced at their phones, their expressions instantly changed.It was a message from the bank, stating that their child had been listed as a defaulter and urging them to repay the loan immediately.“What have you done?” Their parents’ voices trembled.Seeing that there was no way to hide it anymore, they had no choice but to confess the truth.They los
The Guardian's Return Chapter 917
Seeing that message, they immediately felt as if their world had ended.Because they had insulted Ethan, they lost their jobs, were blacklisted, and could not find work again.“How could this be?”No one expected this outcome. They thought, ‘So what if I insulted him? Are they going to punish me for it? Besides, so many people are insulting him. They can’t possibly punish every single person who did it. At most, I’ll post a public apology and promise that I’ll never do it again.’However, now they were all fired. Everyone who had insulted Ethan had been dismissed from their jobs.It seemed like there were several tens of thousands of people involved! It was hard to imagine just how many people had lost their jobs in real life.“Why are they going this far? Aren’t they afraid of causing unrest?”Of course, HQ had considered that. However, they knew what was more serious.If Ethan went abroad and cooperated with foreign countries, the consequences would not be limited to a few pe

George thought that Rachel had already escaped abroad, so he was not afraid when he arrived.Now, when he saw Rachel there as well, he completely panicked.This was not what he had expected!“Where else would she be?” someone from HQ asked.George looked nervous and stammered, unable to say a word.With Rachel caught and him being brought here, it was clear that HQ already knew the truth. Coupled with his fear of Ethan and his helplessness in the face of reality, he no longer had the strength to make up any excuses.He had resigned himself to fate.“You really have some nerve." The people from HQ sneered. “You fooled us all completely.”“You’ve been hiding Ethan’s contributions all this time, haven’t you?”“You two are nothing but disasters to this country! You deserve to die a thousand times over.”George kept his head down while Rachel sobbed. “I was wrongfully accused!”“Shut up! Are you still trying to fool us at a time like this? You were wrongfully accused? By who? Sim

They brought this on themselves, forcing themselves into a corner with no way out. “Ah!”Simon could not take it anymore. He suddenly ran towards the window, trying to end his life. Fortunately, the officials quickly stopped him. “Don’t be reckless! Think about Stephen. You’re all he has now!”That sentence made Simon stop. Now, Stephen and Simon were each other’s support and burden. Simon slumped on the ground weakly. Right now, they both wanted to die, but neither of them had the courage to follow through. All they could do was live on in pain. After a long silence, Simon said, “I’d like to file a report on someone.”To obtain some kind of reward and survive a little longer, Simon decided to turn in George and Rachel. When the officials heard him, they were stunned. They did not expect Rachel to be involved in framing Ethan. “Shit!” Someone exclaimed. “I heard Rachel bought a flight ticket overseas. Could she have fled?”The room was filled with dread. If Rachel ra

Seeing that Stephen was awake, the others rushed to get the doctor. The doctor was astonished as well. Stephen’s sudden awakening was nothing short of a miracle. However, after examining him, the doctor’s expression darkened. Stephen had regained consciousness, but the prognosis was far from hopeful.“He can’t move,” the doctor said. “As of now, he’s paralyzed.”Stephen could open his eyes, but the rest of his body was unresponsive. He could not move his limbs or his neck and mouth. The only part he could move freely was his eye. Even his breathing was dependent entirely on medical equipment. “He might never be able to leave the bed again.”Upon hearing that, Stephen closed his eyes in despair, tears continuously rolling down his cheeks. He had fought so hard to wake up, only to realize he had missed his final chance to meet Snow and Lily. Worse yet, he also lost the ability to move. From now on, he would be confined to the bed and hooked up to machines just to stay alive.
The Guardian's Return Chapter 913
His father died a miserable death, his son was in a coma, and the Quinn family was shattered, leaving only Simon behind to finally realize all his mistakes. However, it was too late. Harrison could not come back to life, the Quinn family could not be whole again, and Stephen could not recover. Simon would forever be haunted by pain, despair, and regret for the rest of his life. At that moment, in complete darkness, Stephen heard Simon’s voice. He was conscious but failed to open his eyes or speak; he could not move a muscle. He wanted so badly to sit up and tell Simon that it was not solely his fault. They were all wrong, and this was their retribution!Just then, two women walked into the ward. When the officials saw them, their eyes widened in shock. For a second, no one even breathed. They were Snow and Lily!The officials thought they were seeing ghosts. Those women were supposed to be dead. Why were they there? Snow and Lily noticed their shocked gazes and offered them

Due to Harrison’s previous incident, the officials reacted quickly by sending Stephen straight to the hospital.After an emergency rescue, Stephen’s life was saved. However, he paid a heavy price. When the doctor walked out of the emergency room, the officials asked, “How is he?”“The situation isn’t looking good,” the doctor said grimly. “His body is in a bad state, and due to long-term emotional distress, he suffered a brain hemorrhage from the emotional shock.“He’s still in a coma, and we can’t say for sure when he’ll wake up again. It depends on his will to live.”The officials drew a sharp breath. “Do you mean he might end up in a coma forever?”The doctor nodded. No one saw coming that Stephen would fall into a coma, with little chance of ever waking up again. However, it also meant he did not have to die anymore. He would be alive but confined to a bed. Suddenly, they thought of Harrison’s desperate pleas to Ethan back in his villa. “I’m willing to trade my life fo
