Semua Bab The Guardian's Return: Bab 321 - Bab 330

Nico’s face darkened at George’s words. He hated people who called him a criminal. Although a few years ago, he had helped his brother and the villagers commit illegal acts and never had any remorse, he paid the price and believed that he should not be labeled as a criminal. The villagers frowned as well. Since Nico became the village chief, the village thrived and prospered. The villagers started to buy new cars and build new houses. “What are you people talking about? He’s our village chief,” said one of the villagers. George and Julius widened their eyes in shock. Nico became the village chief?! “What about Hendrick? Why did you guys elect a new village chief all of a sudden?” George asked as his brows furrowed tighter. The villager grunted and said, “Hendrick is working with people beyond the borders and is always on the run. He might be with the South Regent.” George and Julius were mortified. The previous village chief, Hendrick, might be related to the South Rege

Back then, Ethan had made Nico kill his own brother. His parents died of illness and his wife left him. His family was shattered, and he was locked up for three years. He had nothing except his son when he was released. Ethan wanted him to fall into despair and devastation, but he made the biggest comeback and became the village chief of Stone Village. He led everyone into making more money and could soon unleash vengeance on Hill City. If Ethan found out that he had grown so powerful, the man would lose his mind. George asked, “Are you talking about Ethan?” Nico asked, “Do you know where he is? Ethan helped us a lot, and without him, there wouldn’t be a Stone Village. I want to thank him in person. Can you tell me where he is?” George sighed at Nico’s request. He could not understand why everyone missed Ethan so much. “He’s in Drakthorn Ridge, but you won’t be seeing him.”Nico marked down the location nonetheless. George left the village after he was done verifying the e

Tommy looked at Ethan in shock. He heard about what happened from his father but hearing it from Ethan in person felt different. He knew what his uncle had done in the past. “Uncle Lars got what he deserved. As for my grandparents and mother, they just have to be. It’s fate.” “Fate?” Ethan muttered. After a few rounds of questions, he got a general idea of Tommy’s personality. Unlike his father, the boy could still be saved. “I won’t stop your father, but I can give you two pieces of advice. “First, collect evidence of his crimes and give them to Stephen Quinn. Though you might not be able to fool your father and after today, you won’t get the chance to leave Stone Village again.” Once Nico realized his son was missing, he would go looking for the boy. When he found out that his son went to Ethan’s place, Tommy would surely be grounded. It was not just because Tommy had met Ethan but also because Tommy knew too much. “Second piece of advice: cut ties with your father and br

Upon learning that the person standing before him was Riveria’s current governor, Martin was shocked. All they did was steal some fruits and livestock. How did it startle such a high-ranking figure? However, quickly calming down, Martin smiled and said, “What brought you here? If you’d informed me beforehand, I would have prepared good food and wine to welcome you.”“I don’t need it.” Stephen said coldly, “I don’t feel at ease enjoying your food and wine. I have a question for you. Did your villagers raid the orchards and farms owned by those companies?”Martin thought, ‘So it really is about that.’He feigned ignorance. “I don’t know.”Stephen slammed his hands on the table with a bang. “Are you sure?”“I really don’t.”Although Martin did not directly participate in the raid, his wife and children went, and many of the involved villagers gifted him goods as tribute. Whether the villagers ate or sold those fruits and animals, it would only benefit the village. Therefore, he wo

Stephen also noticed the commotion online. “They want Ethan to come back…”Things were getting out of hand. The people thought Ethan was a criminal, but he knew there was no problem with Ethan. In fact, Stephen knew that if Ethan returned, he would not be able to keep his position, and the truth would come to light. Then, he would be in big trouble! He quickly called George to help him figure out a solution. At that moment, George was in Stone Village. Julius had received a tip that someone was selling rare wild animals in Stone Village, so he quickly investigated it, and George followed to keep an eye on him.Nico welcomed them both warmly. After learning that Julius had come to investigate the wild animal trade, he told the villagers to show him around to check if there was evidence. Julius agreed readily, and George wanted to go along, but Stephen’s call came at that moment. “Those companies are threatening me with Ethan. What should I do now?”George frowned as he li
