Semua Bab The Guardian's Return: Bab 161 - Bab 170

"The hometown you wished to return to," Ethan's voice sounded nearby.Snow quickly looked up. Seeing Ethan standing next to her, she was stunned. "What's going on? I clearly remember drinking the medicine. Didn’t I die?"Ethan nodded. "You did indeed die."Snow understood. "So, you saved me.""But..." she lowered her head, speaking softly, "I don’t deserve your help.”She had already made up her mind to die. Even though she had died once and was now brought back to life, her thoughts had not changed.Ethan removed the silver needles. "Well, someone thought you were worth it.""Who?""Nina Summers."Snow's eyes suddenly widened. "My senior? Is she safe too?"Snow quickly looked around. They were in the middle of nowhere, and a young woman stood next to Ethan.However, she was not Nina. Her appearance, demeanor, and figure were completely different."She's already dead," Ethan said. "She died fighting her enemy, but before she perished, she used 5 million dollars to beg me to

Stephen stared at Oliver in surprise. He did not expect such a response from Oliver.In all their previous interactions, Oliver had always spoken politely. Why was he taking up such a tone with him now?Oliver's plan was already complete. He had gotten rid of Snow, legitimately opened factories, and even profited from the sports complex. He no longer needed to pretend to flatter Stephen.If anything, the only people he should ingratiate himself with now would be those who were as successful as Ethan Rivers; not failures like Stephen who had ruined two cities and doubted the words of his own woman."I'll have someone investigate it right away," Stephen hurriedly responded.Stephen had people conduct tests, and the results came back quickly. The factories' pollutant emissions were only slightly above the standard permitted.These levels of emissions would not cause a large number of fish deaths in the river.Oliver looked at the test results and remarked, "Well, you've seen the re

At that moment, his phone rang.He looked at the screen and saw that it was Stephen calling.Simon’s heart skipped a beat, thinking that Stephen had already found the truth.Despite his experience, the always composed Simon felt a bit nervous now. He answered the call and asked, “What is it?”“There’s a small problem in Aqua City,” said Stephen.Simon sighed in relief.It was about Aqua.Thank goodness.It would be a much more serious problem if Stephen found out that Snow was dead.Wait!Simon snapped back to reality. There was a problem in Aqua City again!He felt incredibly overwhelmed. Snow’s issue was already serious. If something happened in Aqua City as well, it could not be overlooked!“What happened?”Stephen said quietly, “Oliver tricked me.”“Hm?” Simon frowned.Tricked?He instantly had a bad premonition.What was the cause of North Hill City’s ruin? Shawn, Eric, and Brandon had tricked Stephen. In the end, there was also Danny.What was the cause of Seasi

Simon felt that it was very difficult.Should he tell Stephen the truth? Aqua City was at a critical moment. He could not find out right now.However, the truth could not be hidden forever. Stephen would find out eventually, and the longer it was kept from him, the more misery he would feel later.Simon could only ask Liam, “What about the body?”“It was returned to her hometown according to her wishes.”“Give it to me,” said Simon. “She was part of the Quinns.”“Sorry, but I can’t.” Liam sighed and said helplessly, “She severed ties with Stephen before she died. Neither is she part of the Quinns nor is she worthy of them.”Bam!Simon slammed his palm on the table.That apology at the press conference!Stephen publicly cut ties with Snow, leading to this result.Snow was dead, and the Quinns could not retrieve her body. They did not even know where her body was!Liam said, “All this was her choice. Let’s respect it one last time.”Simon hung up the phone. He sat in his cha

At that moment, the assistant’s head went blank!His neck felt like it had rusted. Even the slightest movement took tremendous effort, and he strained to look at Stephen.Stephen had completely frozen.The two skewers dropped to the ground, covered in dust.Boom!The assistant felt like his head had exploded.It was over!He heard it!Stephen immediately ran to the group of tourists. “What did you just say? What happened to Snow?”The people looked at Stephen in shock as if they were staring at an alien.“She’s dead. Didn’t you know? It’s all over the internet. She committed suicide out of guilt.”Thud, thud, thud—Stephen’s legs grew weak as he stumbled back several steps.Snow was dead?She was dead!How could that be?He paled, his mind in disarray. The tourists were frightened and hurriedly left.Stephen quickly took out his phone to search.There was nothing!He could not find any news about Snow. Even when he typed part of her name, nothing came up.It was as
