The Guardian's Return (Ethan Rivers) novel Chapter 478

Nolan ran out when he heard Stephen. He knew Stephen must have seen Jeremy.

“They can’t meet!”

He held Stephen back tightly, saying, “Sir, calm down! Jeremy is dead! You’re seeing things!”

“I’m not seeing things! It’s real! I saw him just now! He went into the elevator!” Stephen argued as he tried to free himself from Nolan’s grasp. “Let go of me!”

Nolan cried, “Doctor, nurse! Hurry!”

The doctors and nurses ran over to hold Stephen back. They knew Jeremy was dead and strongly believed Stephen was hallucinating due to the guilt and pressure.

One of the doctors even brought sedatives over, trying to calm him down.

“Let go of me!”

Stephen was shocked and scared when he saw the syringe. He knew he saw Jeremy earlier and refused to let the doctors and nurses hold him back.

“I am Stephen Quinn. I order you to let go of me!”

He used his identity to pressure them, forcing them to release him.

Upon being freed, Stephen got into the elevator and went downstairs. Nolan, the doctors, and the nurses accompanied him along the way.

When Stephen arrived at the lobby, he did not spot Jeremy anywhere due to the overwhelming crowd. He ran to the exit, yet Jeremy was nowhere in sight. It was as if he was really hallucinating just now.

As he squatted down on the stairs, looking disappointed and helpless, one of the doctors injected him with the sedatives. Seconds later, Stephen lost consciousness and was carried onto a bed.

The doctor pointed at his head and said to Nolan, “We suspect something is wrong with him here.”

Nolan argued, “Nonsense. He’s just too tired.”

He was the only one who knew that Stephen was not hallucinating and had actually seen Jeremy because Jeremy was still alive.
