The Guardian's Return (Ethan Rivers) novel Chapter 470

Nolan nodded. “I guess you can say that.”

He had met Jeremy at Ethan’s place and learned that Jeremy’s plan was Ethan’s suggestion. Hence, in a way, Ethan was also responsible for what happened to Stephen.

The psychologist looked troubled.

“What’s wrong?” Simon asked, his brows furrowed.

The psychologist looked confident when he arrived, but now he seemed hesitant, like he had something to say but was holding back.

“Sigh.” The psychologist sighed and got up.

He explained, “I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.”

Ethan's name was known not only to him but his entire profession.

Three years ago, patients affected by Ethan started to pop up like a virus in the psychology field. Despite multiple attempts, the patients could not be saved and tragically took their own life. Worse yet, several psychologists were also affected, and it took a team of psychologists to save them from further influence.

Since then, Ethan’s name had become taboo among them. No one wanted to take the risk, not only failing to treat a patient who got affected by the man but potentially risking their lives as well. It was just too dangerous.

“What? Who do you mean you can’t help?” Simon asked nervously.

“I’m not qualified,” the psychologist provided a succinct answer.

Simon asked, “Aren’t you the best in Riveria?”

“You’re not wrong, but I’m not almighty. You should start looking for someone else.”

He wanted to help. After all, Stephen was the person running Riveria at the moment. If he could treat Stephen, he could live the rest of his life without worries. However, the problem was Ethan. Even if he wanted to help, he could not do so.

With that, the psychologist got up and made his way to the door. Angry, Simon’s jaw tightened.

“Wait! Is there nothing else you can do?” Nolan asked.

The psychologist stayed quiet for a moment before saying, “I can’t do anything, but it doesn’t mean there’s no way. I know a psychologist who takes a more unconventional approach. He has a famous background, and maybe he can do something about Stephen’s situation.”
