Semua Bab The Guardian's Return: Bab 571 - Bab 580

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

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

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

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.

“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
