A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 43 Why Are You Arresting Me

“Of course! He deserves it for spoiling your mood, Old Mr. Haimowitz,” Ximena replied without hesitation, oblivious to Winston’s darkening expression.

After shooting Ximena a glare, Yahir came forward and said, “Uncle Winston, commonfolk like them are lacking in manners. I guarantee that this will not happen again. Please, have a

seat!”

As Winston had come because of Finnegan, there was no reason for him to stay now that the latter had been taken away. Moreover, Finnegan’s story sparked disdain within him for Ximena’s family.

Nevertheless, as a prominent figure in Jadeborough, it would be inappropriate for him to openly break Yosef and Ximena up. Furthermore, he could sense that Finnegan wanted to keep a low profile.

“Yahir, even though it’s not important for the two families to be equivalent in status, it’s still crucial for the engagement banquet to be a joyous event. Therefore, I think it’s prudent to cancel today’s engagement banquet.”

The words came as a rude shock to Raymond’s entire family.

Qahira objected immediately, “Old Mr. Haimowitz, it would be bad luck to cancel it now.”

After painstakingly ensnaring Yosef, Ximena obviously didn’t want to see her engagement being canceled and her dreams of marrying into a prominent family shattered. “Old Mr. Haimowitz, although my cousin’s indiscretions have upset you, the engagement has been agreed upon much in advance. It is therefore unacceptable to cancel it so suddenly!”

However, Winston paid no heed to both the mother and daughter.

Instead, he turned toward Desmond and his wife to console them. “Don’t worry. Your son will be fine. Wynter, let’s go.”

“Uncle Winston!”

“Granduncle!”

“Don’t go, Old Mr. Haimowitz!”

Regardless of how Yahir, Yosef, Ximena, and the others tried to get him to stay, Winston strode out without looking back.

He was going to the police station to bail Finnegan out.

With a grim look on his face, Yahir ranted, “Didn’t I tell you that things will never work between families of different backgrounds? And now, you have angered your granduncle. That’s all for today!” He then turned around and began apologizing to the guests.
