A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana) Novel novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Monster 

“Dr. Larkin, you can stop here!” 

After lunch. Finnegan personally escorted Theoden and the others to the door. After a round of pleasantries, he watched them say their goodbyes and leave. 

Looking back, he saw that Devon and Riley were still there. 

“Old Mr. Chappell, is there anything else?”

Although it was their first meeting, Devon, who already held Finnegan in high regard, said, “Mr. Larkin, my eldest granddaughter, Francesca/ has offended you with her arrogant and unreasonable behavior. I think making her kneel for ten days is not enough. So, after she completes her ten days of kneeling, I will have her come to Jerome Medical Clinic to continue her punishment. You can have her serve coffee and water!” 

Finnegan immediately understood that Devon was thinking the same way as Gilbert and the others. 

Before he could refuse, Devon continued, “Please, Mr. Larkin, don’t decline. My granddaughter really needs some discipline. I hope you can help with that.” 

As he spoke, he had already bent over in a bow, adopting an attitude that suggested he wouldn’t straighten up unless Finnegan agreed. 

Finnegan sighed quietly. “If you insist on this, then let her come over after she has knelt for ten days. However, I hope she comes willingly, so I won’t feel uncomfortable watching her!” 

“Don’t worry. Francesca will definitely be happy to come. We’ll be going first, then!” 

After they left, Finnegan stretched lazily, about to head back to the backyard, when he spotted Kenneth and his students approaching from the end of the street. 

Finnegan’s gaze inevitably turned a bit colder. 

Kenneth didn’t show up when it mattered most today. He was somewhat upset. 

Upon seeing them, Casper directly asked, “What are you guys here for?” 

“Mr. Larkin, I apologize.” Kenneth bowed in apology. “I intended to come early this morning, but my students, hearing rumors of trouble at Jerome Medical Clinic, stubbornly held me back. But I’m definitely not the type to hide when things happen!” 

Finnegan’s expression softened slightly. “Were you unable to come because you were held back?” 

Kenneth swore, “If I utter even a single lie, may divine retribution strike me down, may the peaceful rest of my departed parents be disrupted, and their spirits left in desolation.” 

Upon hearing such a harsh oath, coupled with his conduct from the previous day when he chose not to abandon his patient and flee, but instead bowed his head and pleaded, Finnegan found him trustworthy. “Old Mr. Quiroz, there’s no need for such a harsh oath. I believe you still have basic decency. However, Regi Group’s free medical treatment is still ongoing, so there won’t be any patients in the clinic for now. You and your students can take a break.”

He paused before adding, “But I don’t want to see those who kept you from coming again in the future.” 

“Rest assured, Mr. Larkin. I have already severed my relationship with them.” 

Afterward, Finnegan asked Kenneth and the others to go back first, while he himself returned to the backyard. 

Bernice’s family and Bruce were still there. 

Seeing him return, Patrick and Jennifer stood up. “Finnegan, we have some things to attend to, so we’ll be leaving now. Please come and visit us at home another day.” 

“Take care on your way. Casper, please see them out.” 

Once they had left, Bruce rose somewhat awkwardly. “I heard from Patrick that you wanted to discuss something with me?” 

“Please come in, Old Mr. Zimmerman. Bernie, you and Yuliana can chat for a while,” Finnegan said, then led Bruce into one of the rooms. 

They took their seats. 

Bruce seemed a bit nervous. He hadn’t yet recovered from the shock. 

He looked just like an elementary school student as he sat there. 

Finnegan smiled and said, “Old Mr. Zimmerman, there’s no need to be so nervous. I’m not some kind of 

monster!” 

Bruce gave a bitter smile. “I’m sure my past actions must have made you laugh, haven’t they?” 

The first time he met Finnegan, he had asked him to keep his distance from Bernice. On his seventieth birthday, he had even indulged Millicent and others in targeting Finnegan, treating the Long Life Pill given by Finnegan as trash. 

Facing Finnegan now, Bruce felt somewhat nervous and uneasy. 

Finnegan said, “It’s just human nature. I didn’t take it to heart.” 

Seeing that Finnegan truly had no intention of making a fuss, Bruce finally relaxed a bit. “May I ask who you really are? Why do you have the South-North Badge of the Martial Arts Alliance?” 

“I won’t answer that!” 

Bruce’s expression stiffened. He did not expect Finnegan’s response to be so straightforward. 

However, he dared not lose his temper with Finnegan as he used to. “So, what is it that you want to talk to me about?” 

Finnegan replied, “It’s nothing too important. I just wanted to ask you a few questions, Old Mr. Zimmerman. For instance, there’s no need to continue your three-month agreement with Bernie, right?” 

Bruce nodded. “Of course.”

The initial three-month agreement was made to legitimately separate Finnegan and Bernice and betroth Bernice to Liam all to secure benefits for the Zimmerman family. 

But now, the power displayed by Finnegan made him dare not harbor such thoughts anymore. 

Finnegan narrowed his eyes. “What if Old Mrs. Zimmerman and your second son’s family continue to persist? What if they even start spreading rumors outside?” 

The astute Bruce immediately understood Finnegan’s intentions. 

He assured, “I still call the shots in the Zimmerman family. Their opinions are not to be concerned about. As for today’s matter, rest assured. If they dare to speak nonsense, they can forget about getting anything. from the Zimmerman family’s assets.” 

Oh, you sly fox! 

Finnegan couldn’t help but let out a silent sigh, feeling satisfied. 

If he hadn’t experienced it himself, he would have found it hard to believe that Bruce’s transformation was so profound. 

But for Finnegan, this was a good thing. “It’s great if you can think that way, Old Mr. Zimmerman.” 

In the next moment, the conversation took a sharp turn. “Also, the current Old Mrs. Zimmerman is not your first wife, is she? Mr. Patrick and his brother are half-brothers, aren’t they?”

Bruce’s face instantly changed color. 

He couldn’t help but stand up. “How did you know?” 

Indeed, Millicent was not his original spouse, and Patrick and Bishop were half-brothers from the same father.
