Sydney raised her left wrist suspiciously. "What's wrong with my wrist?"
"How did you get the red mole on your wrist?" Finn stared at her and asked.
Sydney was amused. "I was born with it, of course. How else do you think I got it?"
Did he think she drew it?
However, red moles were rather rare. People usually had back moles, and very few people had red moles.
Finn's expression did not change much when he heard Sydney's answer. Instead, he lowered his head and seemed to be thinking about something.
Sydney felt that he was acting very strange. She touched her mole and asked, "Why are you asking me that?"
Finn pushed his glasses up, did not answer, and asked again, "I have another question. Did you ever save a little boy when you were young?"
"Saved a little boy?" Sydney raised his brows.
Finn simply hummed.
Sydney narrowed her eyes in thought. "How young?"
"Around ten years old," Finn looked at her and responded.
Sydney smiled. "I did save one before."
Finn's eyes widened for a moment at her words. His sitting posture was no longer as relaxed but stiffened up instead.
He asked in an eager tone, "Where did you save him?"
Sydney only felt that he was acting even weirder. She did not understand why he was asking this, but she still answered, "At a pond. The little boy was bullied and thrown into the pond. I happened to pass by, so I found a wooden stick and pulled him up."
Crash!
Finn stood up too quickly, causing the chair to fall back on the ground.
He took off his glasses and looked at Sydney emotionally. "It really is you!"
Lyra was not his angel. His real angel was the one in front of him, Sydney.
What was ridiculous was that he had mistaken his angel for another person and repaid the wrong person the entire time. He even almost killed his real benefactor.
"W...What really is me?" Sydney was startled by Finn's excitement and looked bewildered.
Finn did not answer but went forward and hugged her tightly.
Sydney was shocked and a little breathless at the
same time.
She pushed him away and said in a pained voice, "Let
— H
go...
However, Finn continued to hold her as if he had not heard her.
At that moment, the ward door was pushed open and Luke appeared at the door. "What's wrong, Darling?
What was that noise...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the scene in the ward and exploded. "Finn James, what the hell are you doing? Let go of my darling!"
Luke rushed up.
Hunter heard Luke's words and also came in from outside. "What happened...? F*ck! Finn, you piece of-!"
He also rushed over and pulled Finn away together with Luke.
Luke clenched his fist and swung it at Finn's face.
Hunter, on the other hand, stood in front of Sydney protectively, shielding her tightly.
Bam!
Finn was knocked to the ground by Luke with a loud bang. His glasses flew out and fell to the side.
Luke saw this but did not stop. He went forward to grab Finn's collar, lifting his upper body and saying furiously, "Is this your bedside manner? How dare you bully my darling? You call yourself a doctor? You have no medical ethics at all. How could you lay your hands on a patient? I'll kill you."
Saying that, he raised his fist again and was just about to hit Finn.
Finn's lips moved and he was just about to speak when his phone rang.
He closed his mouth and took out his phone in displeasure. When he saw the caller ID, a murderous light flashed in his eyes before it disappeared just as quickly. He regained his usual lofty and cold look as he answered the phone, "Hello?"
"Finn, did you do it?" Lyra's expectant voice came from the phone.
Finn's eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth curled in a cold arc. "No."
"No?" Lyra's face changed and her voice sharpened. ' What do you mean no?"
"I'll talk to you later. I'm with a patient now." Then, he directly hung up the phone.
Lyra was so angry that she wanted to smash the phone.
'This useless piece of trash. It's been so long but he still hasn't succeeded. He's completely useless!
'How dare he hang up on me?'
In the ward, Finn put down his phone and turned his gaze to Sydney once again.
Luke and Hunter stared at him warily, afraid that he would do something to Sydney again.
Fortunately, Finn acted normally and did not do anything. He just looked at Sydney and said, "I'll protect you. I'll always, always protect you. Just wait for a little while. I'll throw everyone who hurt you into hell!"
The first one would be Lyra Madden.
It was a pity that he had always mistaken Lyra as his angel before. He left no evidence of all the evil things Lyra did, and he even cleaned up after her tracks many times.
Thus, it was impossible to use legal means to deal with Lyra. Furthermore, Lyra also had Julien on her side, so he could not directly lay a hand on her. He could only move step by step in the dark.
Finn's glasses glinted at the thought. He looked at Sydney again and then turned to leave.
After he left, Luke and Hunter both sighed in relief.
"Geez, his eyes just now and what he said was too terrifying. I got goosebumps listening to him," Luke rubbed his arms and said with some lingering fear.
Hunter nodded. "I feel the same. I heard that people who practise psychology more or less have psychological problems of their own. Judging from Finn's crazy eyes just now, I'm sure that there must be a problem with him. But that's not important now.
The important thing is, why did he say he'd protect Sydney?"
