The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 96

Once Stephen was taken away, he instructed his subordinates to speed up.

Stephen's arrival meant that the news of Seaside City's unrest had spread, so they did not have much time left. They had to act quickly and make money fast!

Half a day later, Stephen was found in a pile of garbage on the side of the road by a passerby.
