After leaving the Wright residence, Finnegan headed to the hospital where Rhiannon was taking care of Desmond in his ward.

Nodding, Finnegan walked to the bedside and checked Desmond’s pulse. “Dad, how are you feeling?”

Desmond stretched out his legs. “I’m fine now. I feel like I can be discharged from the hospital and return to school tomorrow.”

He paused before scolding, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier about your mother’s hospitalization?”

Startled, Finnegan turned to look at Rhiannon.

The latter stuck out her tongue. “I let it slip without realizing it. Mom and Dad know now.”

Finnegan called her a blabbermouth in his mind but didn’t blame her.

He had no intention of keeping his parents in the dark forever. “Dad, I was afraid that you and Mom worrying about each other wouldn’t be good for your respective recovery. I promise I won’t hide anything from you in the future.”

Desmond’s expression softened slightly. “Remember, no matter what happens, don’t hide it from me. If something really happened to your mom, wouldn’t I even miss the chance to see her one last time?”

“I know. But Dad, aren’t you angry?”

This time he had dragged his parents into his affairs.

Desmond patted Finnegan’s shoulder, “If people are scheming against you, it means you’re successful. As your father, I have no reason to be angry about that, right? I’m just upset at myself for being a useless father. Not only am I incapable of helping you, but I’m also holding you back!”

Finnegan, ready to be scolded, said, “Dad, you’re not incompetent at all. Didn’t you raise me and Rhia? In our hearts, you will always be the best!”

“You’re getting better and better at sweet talking. No wonder Bernice has taken a liking to you. Go.check on your mom, I’m fine here.”

Still, Finnegan spent some time chatting with Desmond before he left the ward with Rhiannon.

On the way to Quiana’s ward, Rhiannon said, “Finn, Uncle Raymond and Uncle Adrian were here again.”
