Semua Bab The Guardian's Return: Bab 561 - Bab 570

Ethan looked at Theo and saw him slowly take out a three-inch-long fruit knife that had been specially sharpened.He said calmly, “I have enough fruit knives. I appreciate the gesture, but you can take it back later.”“This knife isn’t a gift for you. It’s to send you to your death!” Theo shouted and stepped toward Ethan. He had waited three years for that moment. For three years, he had had nightmares every night of Ethan destroying everything he once had. Now that Ethan was right in front of him, he could not wait a second longer.Ethan, however, did not grow nervous or panicked when he saw Theo approach. Instead, he remained calm.“As the son of the Harlows, you should know that your family and several other families joined forces to kill me. However, despite hiring expensive assassins, they failed. Do you think you’ll succeed?”Theo gritted his teeth. “I’m different from them.”Ethan smiled. “You’re exactly the same as them. Whether it's assassins, the Harlows, or other fam

When Theo heard those words, his mind went blank. The one who killed his father was not Ethan but his own mother, and the reason was absurd!He wanted to deny it. How could his mother have killed her husband? However, as the son of the Harlows, he knew everything that happened in the family. How long had it been since his parents had a civil conversation? Sometimes, they even slept in separate rooms. Did they truly love each other?Theo could lie to everyone else but not to himself. He knew what Ethan said was true.For three years, he had hated the wrong person! The real killer was dead, and even if the killer were still alive, Theo knew he would not be able to get revenge.“Why are you telling me all this?” Theo looked at Ethan. “You gave me hope and then crushed it. What do you want?”“It’s simple,” Ethan said calmly. “I want you dead.”From the moment Theo arrived with a knife, he had to die. Since he wanted to kill Ethan, Ethan had no reason to keep him alive.Theo trembl

“Yes,” Edward immediately said. “We should release them. We took it too far this time.”Theo was speechless.Edward continued, “I’ve thought of a way to get them out. We can use Stephen to have them released. It’ll make the process a lot easier. That way, we can deepen the rift between Stephen and Rachel. That’ll work to our advantage as well.”He knew that Stephen had met with both Daniel and Caleb recently, and they left a good impression on him. If he told Stephen that Daniel and Caleb did not deserve to be imprisoned, it would free the two men and elevate the Spencers’ standing in Stephen’s heart.That was the best plan Edward could think of.If Daniel and Caleb were released, they might still suffer some consequences, and all their previous efforts would be in vain. However, if the Spencers stepped in and got Stephen to intervene, they could avoid a total disaster.The next morning, Tyler approached Stephen. He had gathered enough evidence and made sure to present it in a wa

“Don’t spend too much time on finding the girl. We should focus on Daniel and Caleb first.” From the moment the two of them were rescued, they had been keeping a close eye on them. They must prevent the two from leaking any news to Stephen or the media regarding the Spencers. On the other hand, Daniel and Caleb were still feeling lost. It had only been a day since their arrest, but the changes in their businesses and families had been overwhelming. The companies they had worked so hard on were suddenly someone else’s property, and their families were put under heavy restriction, so much so that even a 2000 dollars transaction required the authorities to call and ask what it was for. As if that was not enough, people would vandalize the gates and walls of their houses, berating them and criticizing them openly. Some even threw homemade explosives into the yard in the middle of the night. Daniel and Caleb were no strangers to hardship, but this time, they truly didn’t know what

Daniel and Caleb hung up the video call with a heavy heart. Their sons, Timothy and William took their phones back, still struggling to accept the harsh reality unfolding before them. Ethan had contributed a lot to Riveria, yet someone else was reaping the rewards of his hard work, leaving him locked up in Drakthorn Ridge. “Mr. Rivers, are you sure you don’t want to leave with us?” The two young men wanted to persuade Ethan to change his mind. Ethan smiled. “I like it here.” There, he was free to do anything. He could plant, relax, watch the sunrise and sunset, listen to the birds, and write a novel. When it rained, he could just lay on the rocking chair in front of the door with a pot of tea beside him, enjoying the sounds of nature. He could also watch as Stephen slowly ruined Riveria. Timothy and William sighed helplessly. “Mr. Rivers, we have one last question.” They knew that would be the last meeting with Ethan, so they had to ask every question they had in mind
