A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 243 Dense Man

After leaving the restaurant, Finnegan didn’t return to the hospital but went to a nearby small park.

He walked straight into a dense grove of trees and said, “Come out!”

A figure darted out from the dark thicket.

Wrapped in a black robe, the face of the person couldn’t be seen, but it was evident from the sturdy build that it was a man.

Finnegan knew exactly who it was. “You’ve been notified for days and only now you show up. It seems like you don’t take me seriously. Aren’t you afraid that Oswald will be released early and ruin everything?”

“It’s just that my master just delivered the goods to me. Please forgive me, Mr. Larkin.”

The person in the black robe knelt in front of Finnegan, speaking respectfully.

A playful smirk tugged at the corner of Finnegan’s mouth. “So what you’re saying is, I shouldn’t blame you, but rather your master for delivering the item late?”

The man in the black robe bowed his head. “I dare not!”

“Fine. Give me the goods, and you can leave.”

The person in the black robe lifted both hands, presenting a small, black-cloth-wrapped object, about the size of a palm, to Finnegan.

Finnegan took it and tucked it into his pocket without opening it. “Get up and get lost!”

The person in the black robe stood up. “Mr. Larkin, my master also wanted me to ask you something. I can deal with Oswald. Why do you want to deal with him personally?”

Finnegan waved his hand and returned the way he came. “Tell your master not to meddle in my affairs. He doesn’t need to concern himself with my business.”

“Yes!”

Following the curt response, the figure in the black robe turned and disappeared into the darkness, as if he had never appeared.

Finnegan seemed unperturbed, leisurely returning to the hospital as if nothing had happened.

However, upon reaching the entrance of the inpatient building, he encountered a displeased Romona.

“Finnegan, do you lack manners, or do you find me undesirable? It’s fine if you don’t want to pay the bill, but why run off so quickly?” Romona complained.

Finnegan’s lips twitched, genuinely helpless with Romona’s attitude.
