All Chapters of The Guardian's Return: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

The South Regent studied Ethan's face, trying to determine if he was telling the truth.After a moment, he realized that Ethan remained perfectly calm.The South Regent sat back down, trembling. "I think the Grand Marshal, my enemies in Riveria, and everyone who dislikes me combined are nowhere as terrifying as you.""Thank you for the compliment," Ethan said. "You just need to send the people to the foot of Sky Peak. I'll take over from there."With that, Ethan turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.The South Regent stared blankly as Ethan departed. Even though he had become a king and his greatest enemy was dead, he did not feel happy at all.After all, a more formidable opponent had now arrived."Your Highness, do we really have to agree to his demands?" asked the man who had previously pointed a gun at Ethan.The South Regent nodded. "I can't refuse the conditions he's offered."He then glanced at the man and said, "You should go to Riveria too."The man was st

So long as Ethan was still in charge of Riveria, he and his subordinates were to stay away from the border.As such, now that Ethan was gone, the South Regent could finally act freely. However, this meant that the various schemes that he had come up with would go to waste. It was truly regretful.At the very least, he wanted to win at least once.The mayor bowed his head and said, "I understand, Your Highness."He looked back at the villa, then turned and left.The next day, the mayor came again.In this subsequent visit to the villa, the mayor noticed that George and Stephen appeared refreshed and content. They clearly had a good time."Gentlemen, I hope I'm not disturbing you."George smiled and said, "Of course not.""That's good." The mayor breathed a sigh of relief.He briefed them on the wealthy investor's itinerary. Everything was on schedule with an expected arrival in Celestial City tomorrow at noon.They then chatted about Celestial City's development and future pl

They had already arranged accommodations through the mayor, similar to what had been prepared for them with several young, beautiful women waiting in hopes of making the investor reluctant to leave.On the way to the lodgings, Stephen sat next to the investor and smiled, "Celestial City has beautiful scenery, and it's very safe too. How long are you planning to stay in Celestial City during your visit?"The investor smiled and said, "The original plan was to stay for three days. If the environment in Celestial City is really good, I might stay a few more days.”"You won't be disappointed." Stephen smiled. Although Celestial City's scenery was not as good as Aqua City's, because the two cities were not far apart, there were still some calming green mountains dotted throughout its landscape.They quickly escorted the investor to his lodgings where the mayor was already waiting.Seeing the investor get out of the car, the mayor immediately went up to greet him, "Hello, hello, I'm the

“What? What happened? Why are they leaving all of a sudden? Celestial City is the financial hub of Riveria. They can’t leave!” George and Stephen panicked. George said, “Go talk to Richard right away and make the deal happen! I’ll contact the companies and tell them to stay!” “Got it!” Stephen moved out right away. Without further ado, George contacted the companies, starting with Kenny’s, and gathered them for a meeting. George looked at the CEOs of the various companies. “Is there any problem that you are facing? Why are all of you leaving the city all of a sudden?” Someone said, “That’s because Celestial City is over. Or more precisely, Riveria is over.” George frowned. “Where did you hear that? That’s groundless rumors! Celestial City is fine! Riveria will prosper!” Someone chuckled. “Is that so? Then why is Riveria’s GDP down to 11.4 trillion dollars?” George was silenced by the question. “Don’t even try to keep us. It won’t work unless Ethan Rivers comes back.

As the truck drove off, the bodyguard’s car drove past Stephen’s car. He widened his eyes in shock as he watched the car drive past his own and the truck before disappearing beyond the road. He sweated profusely. It was then he realized that the kidnappers came prepared! They used trucks and a spare car to fool the bodyguards! “Who are you?!” Stephen asked. His body was trembling as he sensed danger looming. He had a feeling that his life was under threat. “Who we are is not important. The important thing is…” The man in the rear seat chuckled. “Why don’t we play a game?” “Game? Is my life a game to you?!” Stephen was agitated. He was the son of Simon Quinn of Metropolis, not some random John Doe! “Don’t worry. I know who you are and we won’t hurt you. Don’t you want us arrested?” A sudden realization struck Stephen. He was behind the wheel with the kidnapper behind him. If the kidnapper did not dare hurt him, he could easily drive the car to the police station and th
