Chapter 184 Yasmine And Her Invitation.
After midday, Finnegan concluded the third treatment session for Waylynn.
Xena also bid him farewell. “Mr. Larkin, Waylynn no longer needs my care. I plan to return home now.”
With no outsiders around, Finnegan asked, “Did that old man teach you anything?”
Xena nodded, “Grandmaster taught me some techniques about maligorm cultivation and healing with medicine yesterday. I want to retreat and digest this knowledge. When you have time, I hope you can visit the tribal village, Mr. Larkin.”
Finnegan said. “You no longer need to worry about Ms. Wright’s infection. Feel free to go home whenever you want. I’ll come to visit when I have time.”
After a brief conversation, Finnegan was the first to leave.
As soon as he returned to the small courtyard, he heard Romona pestering Doom Star. “Hey? Can you say something? Who exactly are you? What’s your cultivation level? How do you use a saber?”
However, Doom Star stood still as a statue, eyes closed, treating Romona as if she were thin air.
Finnegan couldn’t help but laugh. “Do you want me to get you a glass of water?”
Romona turned around and scoffed. “Why the sudden kindness? What are you up to?”
“I’m afraid even if you were dying of thirst, Doom Star wouldn’t care about you. That would be-”
Just as he was speaking, his phone rang. It was a call from Alisha.
As soon as Finnegan answered, Alisha’s voice came through. “Finnegan, when are you coming to the hospital? If you’re too busy, my dad said he could take Mr. Klausen and Mr. Zakaria back to Bellridge for treatment. Their injuries aren’t too serious, anyway!”
Hearing this, Finnegan patted his head. “I almost forgot. I’ll come over after grabbing a bite to eat.”
After ending the call, Finnegan turned to Romona and said, “You’re the granddaughter of the Wright family, practically a hostess here. Hurry up and get some food ready.”
“Finnegan, you-”
Finnegan directly interrupted her by saying, “Don’t forget. You promised to be my maid for a month.”
Romona’s face instantly turned red when she heard that.
I’ll surely do as I’ve promised, but why hust he say it out loud in front of Doom Star? Where’s my dignity? Walking up to Finnegan, she stomped hard on his foot. “B*stard! B*stard!”
With that, he gave Finnegan another push before leaving. “Wait! Your pigswill will be served soon!”
Finnegan stood on one foot, shaking his leg in pain. “Whoever marries this tigress in the future will probably be greeted with fists and kicks every day.”

Before long, Romona arrived with the food.
Upon seeing the lavish dishes, Finnegan cracked a joke. “Look at you, saying one thing but meaning another. Weren’t you supposed to serve me pigswill?”
Romona widened her eyes. “Are you going to eat or not?”
Before Romona could take away the food, Finnegan quickly took it from her, saying, “I will! Of course, I’ll
cat.”
Only then did Romona sit down contentedly. “Give me your phone for a moment.”
“Why?” he asked.
“Enough talk. Hand it over!”
Romona reached out and took Finnegan’s phone, but Finnegan didn’t bother to react. He just called Doom Star over to join him for a meal.
Once he finished eating, Romona finally returned his phone to him, saying. “There you go.”
Finnegan glanced at his phone. “What have you done?”
Romona said cunningly, “It’s nothing much. I just installed real-time tracking on your phone. This way. can find you whenever I want. Don’t even think about changing your phone. The program is embedded in
your SIM card!”
With that, Romona patted her long legs and stood up. “All right. I’m going to check on Waylynn. Make yourself at home.”
By the time Finnegan reacted. Romona had already disappeared without a trace. “D”mn! Something seems off with this fierce woman today!”
An hour later, Finnegan appeared at the Wahlstrom family’s invested hospital, accompanied by Doom
Star.
Bradley immediately stepped forward. “Dr. Larkin!”
Finnegan waved his hand, indicating there was no need for formalities. “How are they doing?”
Alisha took over the conversation. “The injuries of Mr. Klausen and the others are not life-threatening. However, Mr. Klausen has broken three ribs, and Mr. Zakaria has a fractured shoulder bone, so their recovery will be relatively slow. After all, they’re getting on in years!”
Finnegan said, “That’s not a big issue then.”
He then asked, “Old Mr. Wahlstrom has returned to Bellridge, hasn’t he?”
“He left overnight.” Bradley nodded in agreement.
“Has there been any change with the Zymons family’s situation?”
When this matter was brought up, a look of anger surfaced on Bradley’s face. “Seth refuses to communicate! But there’s nothing wrong with our family, so why take unnecessary actions when we’re

already in a winning position?
Yet, the Zymons family still insisted on going to war, refusing to compromise or communicate!
Finnegan wasn’t too surprised by that. “What did Old Mr. Wahlstrom say?”
Bradley said in a deep voice, “My father mentioned three possibilities for Solomon’s death. It could be a frame-up by Tyrone, or someone behind the Zymons family might have pulled the rug from under him. The last possibility is that Seth might have resorted to the extreme measure of sacrificing his own child for his benefit. But he insisted that we shouldn’t pursue the truth, claiming that the truth no longer matters! He just instructed us to be extremely cautious in the future, to avoid falling victim to the Zymons family’s assassination attempts!”
Finnegan chuckled and headed toward the ward. “No wonder Old Mr. Wahlstrom could become the leader of Walund after parting ways with Mr. Dominic Johnson of Jipsdale. He does have some brains. The truth… Indeed, it doesn’t matter anymore!”
Waving his hand, he walked into the ward. “So, you all be careful. I suspect the Zymons family’s move will
come soon.
Seeing Finnegan completely unbothered and aloof, Alisha chuckled. “Dad, doesn’t Finnegan realize he’s in danger too?”
Bradley said, “But when fighting against the Wahlstrom family, the Zymons family will not create unnecessary trouble for Dr. Larkin”
Upon hearing this, Alisha nodded in agreement. Indeed, it’s in the Zymons family’s best interest to focus on dealing with the Wahlstrom family. Why would they waste their energy on Finnegan?
Time had swiftly moved on to evening.
After treating Spencer and Zakaria, Finnegan stepped out of the ward.
Bradley stepped forward and asked, “Dr. Larkin, how is it going?”
Finnegan handed him the two prescriptions. “Follow these prescriptions to prepare the medicine. Apply externally and take internally at the same time. They should be fully recovered in half a month.”
“Thank you very much, Dr. Larkin. Otherwise, I would have let down Mr. Klausen and Mr. Zakaria.”
Finnegan waved his hand. “I should be going now.”
