A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 294 Everything Is Over

The recording sent by Finnegan shattered Bernice’s beautiful illusions about her family members, leaving her devoid of any sleepiness.

After freshening up, she left the room.

Inside the dining room, Millicent and Sapphire were having breakfast.

Seeing her come out, Sapphire feigned friendliness and said, “Bernie, you’re up. Come and have some breakfast first. Let’s go shopping once Queenie wakes up.”

Bernice’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

If it weren’t for the recording sent by Finnegan, she would be very pleased with Sapphire’s attitude.

After listening to that recording, Bernice felt a chill run down her spine, realizing that Millicent and the others had a hidden agenda.

Seeing that Bernice made no move, Sapphire called out to her again, “Bernie, what’s wrong? Come here!”

With a quiet sigh, Bernice adjusted her mindset and walked over.

Instead of sitting down, she took out her phone and, under the puzzled gazes of Millicent and Sapphire, she played the recording. The conversation between Queenie and Sapphire was heard.

“Take advantage of Bernice’s absence to sleep with Finnegan. Once that’s done, Finnegan and everything else will be yours, and your grandpa will change the decision he just made.”

“Mom, I don’t like Finnegan.”

“What are you saying? You need to consider your father and your brother, not just yourself.”

As the recording played, the expressions of Millicent and Sapphire gradually stiffened.

Once the recording had finished playing, they still hadn’t fully reacted, their faces just a bit paler than before.

Bernice, struggling with discomfort, said, “Grandma, Aunt Sapphire, I initially thought you had changed, and from now on, we would be a loving family, free from quarrels and scheming. But it seems I’ve idealized human nature too much!”

Clutching her phone tightly, Bernice turned around in disappointment. “But rest assured, I won’t give this recording to Grandpa, nor will I let anyone else know. You ought to behave yourselves from now on!”
