The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 286

The awards ceremony ended smoothly,

In the evening, the villagers gradually moved into the community.

Everyone's noses tingled when they looked at the luxurious and beautiful neighborhood. They never thought that they would one day live in such a place.

The families returned to their homes, preparing to celebrate by whipping up a feast.

Stephen and George watched from outside.

The photographer broadcasted the event live, and the audience in the stream was full of admiration.

"They've worked hard for all their lives and can finally enjoy some peace."

"Although I'm a bit envious that they can live in such big houses, I know they've earned it." "The community is so lively. It feels like a New Year celebration."

"It really is lively, but has anyone else noticed that no one is inviting George and Stephen in?"

"Yeah, even Dr. Rodman was invited in, but why not George and Stephen?"

"I can understand George not being invited, but isn't Stephen the Grand Marshal's mentee? He's done so much for Riveria before, so he shouldn't be left out like this."
