The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 56

The video went viral. It was all over social media, everyone's feeds, and even chat groups. Whenever the police officers saw Ethan, they felt a mix of feelings. They could not understand why Liam would treat Ethan, a man who'd committed so many heinous acts, so well. Would it not be easier to just put a bullet in him and be done with it?

Liam was also questioned by his parents and wife at home.

"Why are you helping that monster?"

"Do you know how many people are homeless because of him?"

"How do you sleep at night, knowing you're protecting someone like him?"
