The Healing Avenger 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.noveldrama

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

of

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.

However, apart from him and Millicent, even Patrick, his eldest son, had no idea about this matter.

Finnegan, who had long seen through the situation, smiled faintly. “How I know is not important. I just

want to ask you, Old Mr. Zimmerman. You should be able to see that Old Mrs. Zimmerman is targeting

Bernie for the sake of her own son and grandson, but why didn’t you stop her?”

At this moment, Bruce’s emotions were in turmoil.

He felt that Finnegan was too terrifying as if he could see through all secrets.

Seeing that he was silent, Finnegan said, “Actually, I can probably guess it. The reason you didn’t stop

it is because you think that you’re all from the same family, so no matter who loses or wins, it doesn’t

matter. The assets belong to the Zimmerman family, and you are still the patriarch of the family! Then if

Bernie married Liam, the Zimmerman family could use this to elevate their status. Am I right?”

Bruce felt an even greater turmoil in his heart, his palms sweating with anxiety. “How could you

possibly know all this? Just who are you?”

He didn’t stop Millicent and others from targeting Bernice and had sometimes even supported them.

Indeed, it was just as Finnegan had said.

Their shift in attitude toward Finnegan even now was driven by the perceived benefits and advantages.

Patting the table, Finnegan gestured for him to sit down. “Don’t worry about who I am and how I know

about it. Let’s talk instead. I’m somewhat interested in your past, Old Mr. Zimmerman. Why have you

been hiding it from everyone?”

Casting a wary glance at Finnegan, Bruce speculated that he must already know the answer and was

just asking on purpose.

He couldn’t help but let out a sigh. “This story begins fifty years ago.”
