The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 348

The meeting soon ended.

Simon hesitated for a while before calling George. "We came to an agreement..."

George was already mentally prepared. "Tell me."

"You'll have to go to jail, but you'll be released in three years."

Go to jail for three years?

George smiled wryly. He did not expect a governor like him to end up behind bars.

He regretted it. If he had not chased Ethan away back then, he could have continued as the governor, living a carefree life.

"What about the Lowes?" That was what George was most concerned about. He could handle jail, but what about Rachel?

Simon said, "I'll protect the Lowes. I'll get Stephen to marry Rachel right away."

Upon hearing this, George felt slightly relieved. If Rachel married Stephen, she would be part of the Quinns. He would no longer have to worry about her.

"But Stephen isn't in a good state right now."

Simon said, "I'll go see him again. He can't go on like this!"
