The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 203

After hanging up the phone, George sank onto the couch and sighed.

Although he knew Stephen was not up to the task, he was also aware of his own limitations. Putting him in charge of Riveria with Stephen assisting him was like appointing two clowns to run Riveria.

George was ready to be honest with everyone, but after reconsidering, he knew he could not tell the truth. If people found out that Riveria was previously run by Ethan, the public outcry would be unimaginable, and once their schemes were exposed, would they even survive it?

"Since I can't reveal the truth, all I can do is push through."

After thinking about it day and night, George finally had an idea.

"Although I've never actually run Riveria before, I've seen how Ethan did it!"

Even if he did not know how to handle things, he could try mimicking what Ethan did.

"Back when Seaside City was also in a mess and various entities were fighting non-stop, how did Ethan solve this issue?

"He picked one of the entities and backed them up, using them to control the other entities!"

Thus, George's plan was to replicate Ethan's strategy. He would also find someone to back, offer them enough benefits, and have them keep the other entities in check.
