The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 224

Stephen looked around but did not spot a third person.

He ultimately pulled his attention back to Ethan.

"Don't tell me you are the one who brought peace to Riveria three years ago. Hahaha, your tricks won't work on me anymore. Go find someone else. I've already figured out the truth."

Stephen sat down on the opposite couch.

"After the Grand Marshal passed away, his student took over his duties and brought peace to Riveria. But he got tired of everything and decided to step down. Then he saw you, an orphan with nothing. He took pity on you and gave you all the credit, allowing you to join the Quinns and have a new identity. Am I right?"

He looked at Ethan, hoping to spot shock or other expression, but all he saw was a smile.

No shock, no surprise, only a smile meant for idiots.

"Your story is much more interesting than life. Too bad it's fictional. The student that you are looking for and the orphan is the same person-me," Ethan said.

"Impossible!" Stephen refused to believe it.
