The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 278

After being scolded, George quietly stepped back and stopped talking.

By midnight, Stephen almost could not feel his legs anymore while George sat on the stone bench and fell asleep, resting his head on a stone table.

At 2 a.m., Stephen was tired and sleepy. His body swayed slightly in the cold wind. Although the area outside the mansion was lit, he somehow felt a sense of loneliness, coldness, and fear.

Where was George?

He looked around, trying to find someone to accompany him, but he saw George deep in

slumber when he turned around.

Stephen was speechless. For a moment, he did not know what to say.

He stood there, tired and struggling, only to make Ethan help them once. And yet, George had fallen asleep!

He was sleepy too!

But he could not rest now. This matter could affect his future.

At 6 a.m., Stephen had stood for the entire night. His body was stiff as if it had turned to stone. He could not feel his legs.

Besides, his body felt unbearably heavy, as if a mountain was pressing down on him. Just standing there took all his strength.

George woke up. Upon opening his eyes, he saw Stephen still standing there with

a pale face, on the verge of collapse, like a candle melting away.

“Huh?” He was shocked and quickly stepped forward. "You stood here for a night?"

Stephen was barely conscious and nodded at him.

"Are you out of your mind? Do you want to die? Stop standing and get some rest.'

Stephen shook his head. Rather than his exhaustion, he was more afraid of death. He did
