The Guardian's Return (Ethan Rivers) novel Chapter 501

“I’ll be going now.” Arnold stood up, said goodbye to Ethan, and left.

When he left the villa and felt the mountain breeze, he finally felt a bit better. He took out the number that Ethan gave, hesitated a moment, then dialed it.

At 3 p.m., Arnold met Andy at the foot of the mountain. Marcus and Jeremy were also with him.

Arnold was shocked to see Jeremy. “Aren’t you supposed to be dead?”

Jeremy said, “Ethan saved me.”

Arnold’s eyes widened. “He saved you?” At that moment, he thought back to the truth that Ethan said. If Ethan truly were a vile criminal, why would he save Jeremy? How would he have the means to save Jeremy?

Arnold forced himself to calm down. “Did Ethan recommend you to join Andy as well?”

Jeremy shook his head. “He never interfered with my choices. I decided everything myself.”

Arnold wavered. Could it be that Ethan was not guilty after all?

Just then, Andy asked, “What’s your story?”

Arnold recounted the events of the previous day and about Ethan recommending him to Andy.

Upon learning that Arnold’s team had been wiped out, the others felt sympathy for him, especially Marcus. He was also an elite soldier who had witnessed the deaths of his teammates in the past.

Jeremy quickly snapped out of his thoughts and said, “No, your team must have been set up. Someone leaked your location!” He knew very well that there was something wrong with Nolan.
