Chapter 571

The wild animals would often damage the crops in front of the farmers. The farmers were driven crazy, but they could not do anything to the protected animals. They had to come up with ways to drive the wild animals away without hurting them. “This isn’t going to last.” After driving another wave of animals away, one of the farmers lay sprawled down on the ground. His body was covered in mud, but he was more worried about the future. “Maybe this will happen once or twice only. It shouldn’t last forever. We can’t hurt the animals. What else can we do?” The others sighed helplessly, feeling aggrieved and angry but they could not do anything. In order to minimize the damage to the crops, some farmers started to move their farms further away. Some of them reported the incident to the authorities, hoping to get a solution. When Rachel learned about the news, she said, “Let them be. This is their problem, not ours. I am not here to clean up their mess.” She decided not to help and d

Chapter 572

Rachel had been spending so much time with Theo lately that she barely had ten minutes with Stephen in a single day. Stephen looked at the feast on the table but felt lonely. He got emotional, wondering if his house was still his home. He missed his carefree days, especially when he was living with Snow. He could do whatever he wanted in the past, unlike now as he felt restrained. “Sigh.” He sat down and had dinner himself. The next morning, when Stephen came out of the room, Rachel was already prepared to go out. “You’re early,” he said, his tone surprised. Rachel usually woke up around noon, so this was unusual for her. She scoffed, “Do you think I’m as lazy as you?” She then strode out the door, leaving Stephen alone and baffled. Stephen had doubts. Had he ever been lazy? Now that Rachel mentioned it, ever since he came to Riveria, he barely had enough sleep. He worked hard whenever he opened his eyes but had never done anything big. “Whatever.” Stephen shook his hea

Chapter 573

Those who could not afford the branded grains or were not interested were forced to purchase the normal quality produced, which were actually the contaminated ones. The farmers saw their incomes shrink while facing challenges such as water shortages and animal damage. These issues deepened their grievances and made them less meticulous in cultivating their crops. As the quality of the crops went down, the water in the reserve was being drained even more. Farmers started to look for other jobs to feed their families. Foreign companies came into play and started to acquire chernozem. There was a lot of chernozem, or black soil that was extremely fertile and productive, in the reserve area, so people started to sneak in, smuggle the soil out, and sell it to the companies. Rachel and Stephen were unaware of these activities. Stephen was pleased that Breeze City’s GDP was going up. “It’s finally going up.” His eyes teared up. Before this, each city he took over went down in ru

Several hospitals were overloaded with patients, and some of them even had to stand outside by the road. The incident started trending online. “A massive cold! Is there a plague coming?” Stephen noticed this, so he sent his men to investigate further. While waiting for an update, he felt strange while reading the comments online. Why would so many people get sick all of a sudden? Could it be a widespread disease? Soon, his men came back with an update. There was no outbreak of disease, but those who fell ill experienced a significant weakening of their immune systems. Stephen frowned. He did not notice anything strange as he assumed it was normal that one’s immune system would weaken during a cold. He told his men to release a statement online: “The cold that everyone is experiencing is not a disease or a plague. Don’t worry and carry on with your daily activities.” Stephen even said, “I swear on my name that it is just a coincidence. People around me are not sick at al

Stephen was stunned. She said that he accused Theo out of jealousy, exactly like how he accused Ethan? The moment the words entered his ears, a realization struck. When Daniel and Caleb were locked up and Theo quickly took over the two companies, he already felt a sense of familiarity. Now with Ethan in the mix, he finally knew why it felt so familiar. It was the exact method he had used against Ethan. He had accused Ethan, framed him for something he did not do, and then locked him up so that he could take over everything. His body was shaking as the thought rose in his mind. Even though the investigation of the crops and grains was still going on, he already had the answer. Theo must be the problem. He must have sold the contaminated crops and grains! Daniel and Caleb were clean; they were framed! “Nothing to say for yourself?” Rachel scoffed, “Did I expose you and leave you speechless? Others don’t know you but I do.” “Shut up!” Stephen’s head was in a mess. He refused

“If someone really dies, he won’t be the only person sent to jail. You’ll be arrested too!”Stephen felt that life with Rachel was unbearable. They had been married for so long, but she would not even let him touch her, always wore a sour face, and acted as though he owed her billions. When he asked what was wrong, she refused to explain.“You want a divorce, right? Fine, let’s get a divorce!”Rachel’s legs went weak. She did not expect the matter to be this serious. She had to go to jail too? “You’re joking, right?” She was no longer angry, and her tone softened as well. “I’m George Lowe’s daughter, as well as your wife. How can I go to jail?”“Why not?” Stephen clenched his fists. “Do you really think the Quinns are omnipotent? We still haven’t found Snow yet!”Rachel was thoroughly afraid now. She grabbed Stephen’s arm, her teary eyes wide as she stared at him. “You’ll help me, right? I’m your wife, and my dad went to jail because of you. Dad told you to protect me. You won’t l

Stephen took a deep breath. “Head to the warehouse first. There are people going after Theo already. They should capture him soon.”Unbeknownst to him, Theo had already escaped the day before. Supported by the Spencers, Theo was well-informed and had boarded a flight out of Breeze City before being exposed.Now, he had arrived at Drakthorn Ridge. He still had one last wish. Theo entered the villa and slowly approached Ethan. He took out a bank card and placed it on the table gently.“There’s 300 million in here. Please give her this card.”Everything he did was to ensure his sister would have enough money to spend for the rest of her life. He could not let her endure the same hardships he had. Theo had figured it out. He knew that he could not escape, so he planned to turn himself in later.“If possible, I’d like to see her once, even if it’s just for a moment from a distance.”Ethan glanced at the bank card. “Even after everything you did, you still want to meet her?”Thud.

“I...” Theo burst into tears. “I never expected this to happen.”He had done everything for his sister, but unexpectedly, those actions ended up harming her. If he had known earlier, he would never have done those things.Ethan watched as Theo cried and said indifferently, “Stop crying. I gave you two choices. You can pretend she never existed. After all, you’ve lived so many years without seeing her. Letting go is easier than holding on.”Theo shook his head. “No, I can’t do it.” He had suffered for three years and finally found a glimmer of hope through Ethan. There was no way he could let it go now.He was an arrogant and overbearing young master in the past. When the Harlow family fell, he spent three years in pain and hatred. Now, he found out that he had hated the wrong person for three years, and he had walked down a path to a dead end he could not turn back from.When Ethan told him that he had a sister, Theo grabbed it like a drowning man clutching a lifeline.

“Your time is running out,” Ethan’s voice said.At the same time, the girl slowly turned around. Just as Theo was about to see her face, he woke up!He opened his eyes and saw the ceiling of Ethan’s villa. As he sat up slowly, he realized that Ethan was no longer in the living room. He thought of the words Ethan spoke in his dream and hurriedly left the villa. Outside, he thanked Ethan for his final help again before turning to leave.Theo hurried down the mountain and called Rachel, saying that he was wronged and framed. He wanted to meet Rachel so that he could explain the truth.Rachel believed him and immediately flew over to the capital to meet him.Theo used sweet words to continue to deceive Rachel. “I have evidence to prove that I was framed, but it’s all in Breeze City. We need to go back.”With Rachel’s help, Theo easily returned to Breeze City. Once he was in a safe location, he immediately took action and tied Rachel up with ropes.“I tricked you.” Theo looked at Rac

“Not yet.” Stephen frowned. “Is she important?”“That’s none of your concern. Just hurry up and find her.”A few minutes later, Stephen’s phone rang. Theo immediately answered it on speakerphone. It was a staff reporting that they found a girl who fit the description.Her name was Noelle Harlow, and she had just turned twelve. She was a very lovable little girl.Upon hearing this, Theo’s eyes instantly reddened. He finally found her!Stephen noticed his reaction and connected the dots with the girl’s last name. A bold idea formed in his head. “She’s your sister.”Theo immediately denied it, “No.” He did not dare to admit their relationship. He was afraid that his actions would implicate the girl.Theo said, “Call a doctor. Have them take a sample of my blood and perform a DNA match with hers.”Since both Rachel and Stephen were being held hostage, the staff had no choice but to listen. Soon, a doctor entered nervously with his equipment.Theo did not make things difficult for
