NovelEnglishChapter 526 Stephen slumped into his chair, boneless. He was really scared out of his wits when he had a gun pointed at him at such close range. He almost died.
Only then did he have tto pick up his phone and check who had tried to call him earlier. However, before he could look, Nolan's call cin.
"Stephen, Charles' parents committed suicide. He has a gun. He injuredand then escaped." Stephen fell silent for a while before saying, "Got it. I've caught Charles. You should head to the hospital and get yourself checked out. You've done well." He was more assured of Nolan, someone willing to risk his life to capture Charles. It looked like he was right in his choice of mayor this time. In fact, he had made an excellent choice! After hanging up, Stephen finally saw that it was Ganter who had tried to call him just now. However, nobody picked up when he returned the call.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that he could not reach Stephen, Ganter had taken to the streets, trying to find someone to send Austin to the hospital. Unfortunately, no one was willing to help as it was too dangerous in Hill City. In the end, Ganter had no choice but to kneel by the roadside, begging people for help until someone finally agreed.
After sending Austin to the hospital, Ganter saw that it was overwhelmed with patients, and every corner was filled with cries. For a moment, he felt as if he was in hell.
There were too many people. Austin could not even get the help he needed because the hospital had over ten people in critical care. Ganter could only lower his pride to find the director of the hospital and use his status to beg the director for help, finally securing a spot for Austin.
However, the doctor gave him devastating news after an examination. "His leg may not be salvageable." The news hit Ganter hard. He stood by the wall in a daze as no seats were available. He could not accept that his favorite protege would becdisabled in the future. On top of that, the entire hospital felt like a descent into hell. How did it cto that? Ethan's words quickly echoed in Ganter's mind.
"I was wrong." At that moment, he finally understood why Ethan refused to save Stephen back then and why Ethan requested him to work in Hill City. It was for him to understand whether he had saved the future of Riveria or a demon! "I've realized my mistakes." Ganter was on the verge of a breakdown.
He thought his saving Stephen could improve the lives of the people in Hill City, but instead, it had led to shattered families. Every cry in the hospital now was because he saved Stephen! Ganter covered his ears and tried to block out the sounds, but he could not. He trembled all over, pale-faced and filled with regret.
He had never felt such regret in his life. He should never have saved Stephen. By saving Stephen, he was made an accomplice in destroying Hill City. He, too, was a demon in that tragedy! Ganter thought of Ethan and wanted to apologize sincerely. He finally understood Ethan's painstaking efforts, but it was too late.
All that remained for him was a lifetof pain and regret. From now on, whenever he saw Austin's crippled leg, he would be reminded of today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, Nolan arrived in prison to visit Charles. "Charles, I've given your parents a proper burial." "Thank you." Charles said gratefully, "I'm sorry for the trouble."
"It's nothing." Nolan sighed. "I understand what you were trying to you do, but you were too reckless. It was de, but? suicidal." "I don't care anymore." Charles smiled bitterly.
"Is that so?" Nolan said, "Take care." "Okay." Charles nodded. "You, too."
After that, Nolan left. His purpose in visiting had been to inform Charles that he had given his parents a grand burial so that Charles felt indebted to him.
Stephen would definitely interrogate Charles later, and now that Charles owed him, even if Stephen asked why he injured Nolan, he would say, "Because he stoppedfrom seeking revenge on you and even tried to capture me." Nolan's plan had gone perfectly! mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
