Chapter 517 As the only mentee, Ethan took over governing Riveria after the Grand Marshal passed.

First, he tackled the issue between Riveria and the land beyond the borders, calming all the conflicts. After that, he entered the Lowes and used George's identity to continue governing the state.

Since George never really did his job, Ethan took full control, which led to his hair growing white at a young age. However, now that he had stepped down, it only took him half a year of rest at Drakthorn Ridge to regain his health.

Charles looked at Ethan blankly, not knowing how to react. He was rude a moment ago, calling Ethan a criminal and threatening to serve justice. Now, Ethan turned out to be his family's savior.

He tried to speak but lacked the courage to do so.

Ethan said, "Let's leave the past behind for now. I'm here today to tell you that I've been imprisoned, so everything under my nwill be forced to cease operation, including the institute. The health insurance plan and the medicine listed inside will all be canceled.

"You gave50 thousand dollars before, and after three years of investment, the return has reached 100 thousand dollars. I'm giving them back to you." He then smiled and continued, "I don't think we'll meet each other again, so take care." The news shook Xavier, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"You're in prison? Who did it? Who? I'll lodge a complaint against them. I'll report them!" He could not understand why someone would send Ethan to prison. It was injustice! Charles subtly picked up the bank card from the floor. He was as embarrassed as he was arrogant when he tapped it away.

The money belonged to his family, and after three years, Ethan managed to double the return. Yet, not only did he fail to show gratitude, but he even tapped the card away and spoke rudely to Ethan.

After learning the truth from his father, he felt absolutely embarrassed. He was not the one who locked Ethan up, but he was helping the one who did it.

As if struck with realization all of a sudden, Xavier looked at his son.

"Charles, is that person your superior? You said he's just and fair, right? Tell him, our savior was wronged! Tell him to investigate this matter and release our savior!" Charles looked down in guilt, unable to find the words to speak.

"Charles, say something! You said you want to be a fair and just person! Why are you staying quiet now?" As the questions from his father hit him, Charles stumbled. He looked up and felt as if a bullet had shot through his head, shattering what he used to stand before and the dreams that he had for the country. He had strayed far from what he used to believe.

"My superior is the one who put him in prison," Charles' voice grew soft as he spoke, his body weak. Xavier widened his eyes, and a moment later, he fell backward stiffly. Ethan swiftly caught Xavier before he hit the floor and then checked on him.

"He's having a stroke. Take him to the hospital!" In a flurry of panic, Charles carried his father and ran out.

Ethan saw him off before he said to Justin, "Let's go." "Yes, sir." Justin had two purposes for being there: to deliver the card and serve as Ethan's chauffeur.

Charles rushed his father to the hospital. After a thorough check, the doctor diagnosed the condition as a stroke, just as Ethan said. It was due to his age and the immense Shock he received earlier.

Charles felt absolutely guilty. He sat on the bench outside the doctor's room, his face blank. He had no idea what to do next, or in the future.

He had lost the subsidy and the health insurance.
