Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 439

Chapter 439 Evil Shadow

Between the two little girls, they were both very enthusiastic. Besides greeting each other, they also greeted the adults. However, like Kiera and Rowan, when Lachlan saw them, he just nodded slightly.

Lachlan's behavior when Nora fell ill was a bit hurtful to their relationship. Even though Kiera had asked Lachlan to help her once before as a shield, there was still some resentment in her heart.

At this moment, Lachlan who originally only wanted to say hello and leave suddenly walked towards them with a serious expression in his eyes.

There was a layer of black mist swirling around Chloe's head which represented an ominous sign of disaster. Of course, ordinary people could not detect this layer of black mist but because Lachlan had inherited the "Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique" and mastered the art of geomancy so he discovered it.

Apart from Chloe, upon closer inspection, Kiera and Rowan also had dark marks on their foreheads, indicating that they might also be in trouble.

Lachlan felt somewhat guilty about the Ward family, especially Chloe, the mischievous little girl. How could he ignore the possibility of something happening to them?

"Chloe, did you have fun at the parent-child activity with your aunt? Are you enjoying yourself?" Lachlan walked over with Nora, diverting the conversation toward the children.

"Yes, I had fun, Uncle Pigsy..." Chloe nodded with a smile, then stuck her tongue out at Lachlan.

Lachlan was sweating profusely. It seemed that this nickname from Chloe wasn't going away anytime soon. Next, he turned to Kiera and Rowan. "Miss Ward, Rowan, what a coincidence, isn't it?"

Kiera raised an eyebrow, looking at Lachlan with some confusion, wondering why he had turned back around after clearly planning to leave with the child.

Rowan smiled politely and greeted, "Mr. Willis, hello."

"Since we've run into each other, why don't we have lunch together?" Lachlan hesitated and asked Kiera.

Obviously, he couldn't just directly state, "You're likely to encounter some misfortune, especially Chloe, who might be in danger." He would surely be scolded before he could even finish speaking, and they wouldn't believe him anyway. After all, the art of divination was too mystical for ordinary people.

So, Lachlan simply invited them to lunch and suggested that they accompany him, preparing to help them avert any disaster.

Hearing this, Kiera and Rowan were taken aback.

Kiera looked at Lachlan, then pursed her lips. "Mr. Willis, last time I had to ask you to pretend to be my boyfriend, it was out of necessity. I hope... you don't take it seriously. There's no need for us to have lunch together, is there?"

Lachlan "ummed" and, looking at Kiera's proud expression, felt a bit overwhelmed.

Did she think he had some kind of ulterior motive? Did she think that pretending to be her boyfriend once would mean something?

"Miss Ward, I didn't mean that! Nora and Chloe are getting along well, so why don't we all spend time together? How about going to the amusement park in the afternoon?" Lachlan suggested.

Based on the dark mist above Chloe's head, he was sure something would happen today, but he wasn't certain what. He felt that if he stayed with them today, he might be able to avert their misfortune.

However, Kiera couldn't help but laugh and look at Lachlan with a gaze that carried both exasperation and mockery. "Mr. Willis, really? Your methods of wooing women are truly abysmal! Another trip to the amusement park? Can't you come up with a more original approach?"

After saying this, the Ward family's young miss shot Lachlan a displeased glance and left with Chloe.

As she turned away, a hint of embarrassment colored her cheeks. She remembered clearly the last time they had dinner at the amusement park, when Lachlan had grabbed her hand and even drank the soup she had sipped from.
