A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 138 The Thoughts

Jennifer had learned from Bernice about Jerome Medical Clinic’s signage being destroyed and the place splattered with paint yesterday.

At the sight of the mess that was the clinic right then, the first culprit who came to her mind was none other than Solomon.

Finnegan nodded in affirmation. “Yeah, it was Solomon’s doing’

“You must be Mrs. Zimmerman, yes?” Quiana had never seen Jennifer before, but she immediately surmised the latter’s identity upon seeing her with Bernice. “Uh… Could the Zimmerman family please lend Finny a hand? No matter what, he has helped Ms. Zimmerman twice!”

Desmond likewise gazed at Jennifer hopefully.

As a man, however, he was embarrassed to beg a woman for help.

Melinda snickered callously. “What a pipe dream! Back then, the Zimmerman family could not even protect your family in the face of the Chomsky family. How could they possibly have the capability to keep an ingrate like Finnegan safe from the Zymons family now?”

Desmond’s and Quiana’s faces were drained of all color.

They did not want to admit that, but it was undeniably the truth.

Jennifer turned to Bernice in puzzlement. “What’s going on here?”

Naturally, Bernice knew what her mother was trying to ask.

In a low voice, she explained, “Finnegan’s parents’ receptiveness is limited, so he hasn’t yet told them about our relationship. He’s only planning to inform them about it sometime later.”)

Jennifer bobbed her head in understanding.

She answered Desmond and Quiana politely, “Indeed, the Zimmerman family isn’t capable of helping Finnegan. But I believe he’ll be fine. Things will not be the same as five years ago.”

Yesterday, she had stayed up all night talking to Bernice.

She had found out that Finnegan was acquainted with many people, including the Wahlstrom family.

Coupled with Patrick’s analysis, she was sure that Finnegan still had some ace up his sleeve and connections.

Otherwise, he would never have chosen to confront Solomon head-on while knowing the latter’s identity full well.

Regretfully, Desmond and Quiana merely took her words as consolation. The grief on their faces intensified.

On the contrary, Raymond and the others were over the moon. They grinned so widely that their eyes became mere slits. “It seems that the ingrate is really doomed this time. Even the Zimmerman family is brushing you off with pleasantries.”
