A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 65 Heartless

In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday, the day of Bruce’s seventieth birthday banquet.

Early in the morning, Bernice had called to inform Finnegan that Bruce’s birthday banquet would be held at Grand View Hotel in the evening. She asked him to meet her in the afternoon so they could go together.

After ending the call, Finnegan took out a small box and opened it. Inside was a pill with a strong aroma, albeit not the most aesthetically pleasing. “With this pill as a birthday gift, I reckon Old Mr. Zimmerman won’t object to me and Bernie being together, right?”

Over the past few days, apart from treating Desmond’s paralysis and making time to tend to Lindsey’s condition, Finnegan had been collecting ingredients to prepare that medicinal pill as a birthday gift for Bruce,

After all, since he wanted to date Bruce’s granddaughter, he needed Bruce’s approval.

Although Finnegan himself wasn’t overly concerned, he still had to consider Bernice’s feelings.

With that medicinal pill, Finnegan was confident Bruce would be more than happy for him to be together with Bernice.

He put away the pill and was about to head downstairs when his phone rang again.

He assumed it was Bernice calling with something more to say but was surprised to see Alexander calling him.

“Mr. Larkin, are you free today?”

Finnegan asked, “I’m free in the morning. What’s the matter?”

Alexander chirped, “Mr. Larkin, I’ve prepared an office for you. Do you have time to check it out today? It won’t take long!”

Finnegan swatted his head and recalled his promise to Alexander about becoming a special consultant at General Hospital. Now that Alexander was calling him, it likely meant there was a challenging case at the hospital.

“All right. I’ll go over soon.”

“I shall look forward to your arrival, then, Mr. Larkin!”

After ending the call, Finnegan left the room and went downstairs.
