The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 434

Jeremy did not say a word. He had made up his mind that he would not betray Stephen, even at the cost of his life.

Stephen extended a helping hand when he needed it the most. Although his mother could not be saved in the end, it at least allowed her to pass away with dignity.

He looked at the South Regent with an unwavering gaze, not a trace of fear in his eyes.

The South Regent had seen that look before. A long time ago, he had the same look in his eyes, but the person he looked at back then was Ethan. Then, Ethan defeated him time and time again, shattering his pride and resolve.

The South Regent chuckled. "You remind me of myself in the past. But even if you refuse to say who's behind you, I can guess it. It's Stephen, isn't it?"

Jeremy was shocked. He did not expect the South Regent to get it on the first guess.

Seeing his reaction, the South Regent confirmed his suspicion and knew what Stephen's plan was. Stephen must have hired the man to infiltrate his company, searching for evidence of illegal conduct to take control of his business.

"How much did he pay you?" The South Regent said, "I'll give you double to work for me." Jeremy said, "It's useless no matter how much you offer."

The South Regent said, "Two million."

Jeremy remained silent.
