The Guardian's Return (Ethan Rivers) novel Chapter 4

Due to it being located at the border, the situation there was extremely unstable, and deaths on the mountain would go unnoticed.

Liam could not help but ask, “Why are you going there?”

Ethan glanced at him. “I don’t need to explain my actions to you. I’m only informing you because I’m currently under suspicion.”

Liam gulped. “I’ll go with you! It’s too dangerous there. You need someone to protect you.”

The two officers behind had long since lost their words. Seeing the chief treating Ethan like that, they also started to wonder if they should beg for forgiveness. However, Ethan ignored them and simply headed straight for the door.

Liam sighed in relief as he watched Ethan leave. As his mind cleared, a thought immediately crossed his mind.

“Who reported him? Who would dare to report him? It must be someone from the governor’s side!

“Is the governor getting rid of him after securing his re-election? This is bad. Ethan doesn’t need Riveria, but Riveria can’t be without Ethan! It’ll be a disaster if he leaves!”

Would the people of Crestwood, who had been making several hundred million or even billions in business annually, just settle down peacefully? No way. It was Ethan who kept them in check.

Liam knew that Lytton and Crestwood were just the tip of the iceberg, and Ethan was the anchor holding everything steady. Without him, Riveria would descend into chaos!

“I need to inform the lieutenant governor immediately!”

Liam immediately called the lieutenant governor, then hurried outside and prepared to be Ethan’s chauffeur.

In the evening, Rachel dressed up and went to the airport to pick Stephen up. She drove him to the best hotel in Riveria to give him a warm welcome, and Stephen was in a great mood.
