A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 73 Outsider

After coming out from the reception room, Bernice no longer kept a distance from

Finnegan. She took the audacious step of linking her arm with his as they sauntered toward the banquet hall.

When encountering familiar faces, she would take the initiative to introduce Finnegan as her boyfriend graciously.

Astonished gazes and hushed conversations soon flooded the room.

“What’s happening here? Since when did Ms. Zimmerman have a boyfriend?”

“Look at him. He seems distinguished. Could he be from some wealthy family? Otherwise, he wouldn’t be worthy of Ms. Zimmerman.”

“What wealthy family? I just heard from Timothy that he’s just an average Joe. Ms. Zimmerman fell for him because he saved Ms. Zimmerman twice by sheer luck.”

Oh, so he’s just an ordinary guy. Then there’ll be some real drama to look forward to. I heard that Old Mr. Zimmerman has already promised to betroth her to the Sable family.”

While the crowd engaged in whispered murmurs, Finnegan and Bernice had already made their way to a window on the left side of the banquet hall.

Finnegan held her hand and asked, “Darling, do you think I’m worth all this drama?”

Even though Bernice did not have a falling out with her family, they were already on bad terms with each other.

With her back against the crowd, she whispered, “There’s no turning back now. You’ve got to treat me right and stay loyal to me. Otherwise, I will never forgive you.”

Finnegan grinned at the gentle yet fierce determination in her posture. “Which version of you is real, Darling?”

Normally, she was gentle and shy in front of him.

However, Bernice had seemed like a different woman when she boldly strode into the banquet hall just now.

Cocking her head, she asked, “Which version of me do you like?”
