The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 119

Stephen wiped the sweat from his forehead, swallowing hard. The situation was way worse than he had expected.

Discussions about him were everywhere online, demanding him to come forward and tell

the truth.

"No. This can't go on. I have to ask Ethan for help!"

Stephen was frightened. He thought he could find a way to solve the problem, but after reading the comments online, he gave up on that idea.

He quickly took out his phone and called Simon

The call soon connected.

"Dad, I have an idea." Stephen said, "I'm thinking of asking Ethan for help."

"Ethan?" Simon frowned. "Why Ethan?"

Soon, it clicked. The situation started because of Ethan and Howard, so it could be easily resolved if Ethan intervened.

The easiest way would be for Ethan to have Howard say that everything was false and was just lies that Dennis and he orchestrated. That way, Stephen would be completely off the hook. Since Howard would never return to the country anyway, there would be no consequences for him.

Simon sighed.
