The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 274

Stephen was slightly stunned.

"He only listens to two people in his whole life. The first one is the Grand Marshal

and the other is Mr. Ethan Rivers."

"What?!" Stephen was baffled.

Why would Dr. Rodman listen to Ethan?

"I don't know about the details, but he used to serve under Mr. Rivers."

Stephen went back and started looking into Dr. Rodman's background.

"He used to treat the Grand Marshal. When the Grand Marshal passed away, he followed Ethan and continued his practice. He was once abducted by the South Regent, but Ethan saved him. Ethan is his savior?!"

Stephen was speechless.

It seemed like Ethan was the only one who could persuade Dr. Rodman to help. He was the doctor's savior after all.

Only Ethan could request the doctor to save Lucas and Celestial City.

Stephen wanted to make a move to Ethan's place but quickly thought of something else.

Just a few hours ago, he promised his father to never'meet Ethan again. He also said that Ethan would spend the rest of his life in the mountains.

Yet in less than a day, the circumstances forced him to go back on his promise. He had no choice. He felt ashamed and embarrassed.
