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 ck 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 ck robe knelt in front of Finnegan, speaking respectfully.
A yful smirk tugged at the corner of Finnegan’s mouth. “So what you’re saying is, I shouldn’t me
you, but rather your master for delivering the itemte?”
The man in the ck robe bowed his head. “I dare not!”
“Fine. Give me the goods, and you can leave.”
The person in the ck robe lifted both hands, presenting a small, ck-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 ck 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 ck 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 youck 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?” Romonained.
Finnegan’s lips twitched, genuinely helpless with Romona’s attitude.
Trying to exin, he cleared his throat and exined, I suddenly had a stomachache. How much was
my share of the bill? I’ll transfer it to you.”

Romona widened her eyes. “What are you saying? Are you dense?”
At a time like this, a regr guy would typically go out of his way to maintain his image.
However, Finnegan not only made up ame excuse but also proposed to split the cost.
Does he seriously think I am after him for money?

Finnegan was about to speak when a call came in. It was from the ward where Quiana was
hospitalized.
Thinking something might be wrong, Finnegan quickly answered. It turned out that Quiana had
awakened.
“My mom woke up. We’ll talkter.”
“Perfect, there are some things I need to ask your mother. These past few days, the deceased’s family
has been causing quite a stir, demanding results from the police department.”
Finnegan furrowed his brow. “It seems they won’t rest until they see my mother behind bars. You can
go and talk to her but don’t mention what happened to my father. We don’t want to affect her
recovery!”
Afterward, the two went to Quiana’s ward together.
Although she had just woken up, with Finnegan’s care and treatment over the past few days, Quiana
was in good spirits.
However, she looked a bit anxious. “Finny, did I really kill someone? Are those family members really
going to beat me to death?”
Seeing his mother like this, Finnegan felt bad for her and consoled, “Mom, it’s nothing. Let Captain
Quickwood exin.”
Quiana wouldn’t believe him entirely, so it would be better for Romona to exin.
Understanding the situation, Romona stepped forward and sat down. “Mrs. Larkin, although that old
happened to stab her in the waist. Don’t get stressed out over that!”
Then, Romona exined to Quiana the general situation and the corresponding penalties for such
actions.
After asking about the specifics of the situation at the time, she left the ward to give space to the
mother
and son.
After hearing Romona’s words, Quiana felt her mood improving slightly, but she still felt uneasy. “Even
though you say that, I can’t get over the fact that I hit someone. Finny, if I end up in jail, you have to
take care of your dad and Rhia, understand?”
Finneganforted, “Mom, don’t worry. I will activelymunicate with the family of the deceased,
offer them additionalpensation, and strive to get their letter of forgiveness. I won’t let you go to
jail!” “Do your best, but don’t force it.” Quiana felt downcast. “Also, your dad and Rhia must be worried,
right?” Having already prepared his response, Finnegan replied, “Rhia is on a business trip with Ms.
Haimowitz

and currently doesn’t know about your situation. I haven’t told her yet. As for my dad, I haven’t
mentioned your situation either. I just said you wanted to go back to Dragon Bay for a few days, so I
brought you back.”
Of course, Finnegan wasn’t deliberately trying to conceal the truth.
He couldn’t hide it, but as long as they didn’t know during their hospitalization, it would suffice.
Quiana nodded, unaware that Desmond was also hospitalized, and Rhiannon was detained at the
police station. “You did the right thing. Don’t let them know for now. Otherwise, they will definitely worry
and won’t be able to focus on their tasks!”
Sighing inwardly, Finnegan skillfully changed the topic and engaged in casual conversation with
Quiana.
However, Quiana had not fully recovered, and after chatting for a while, she got exhausted andy
down.
Finnegan waited for her to fall asleep before leaving the ward.
Romona, who hadn’t left yet, pouted and said, “Why do I get the feeling that you’re in a tough spot?
You have to keep secrets from your dad, your mom, and even your sister.”
Finnegan asked, “What else can I do? Let them worry about each other, and then put on a worried
face?”
“You jerk, can’t you talk nicely?”
“Clearly, I can’t!”

After a retort, Finnegan entered the elevator. Romona followed, scolding, “I really don’t understand
what Bernice sees in you. You’repletely a typical dense man!”
Finnegan pressed the button for the first floor.
A smirk yed at the corner of his lips. “Are all you women so superficial? If a man is polite and
considerate, he’s a gentleman, but if he ignores you, he’s dense. Have you ever thought that maybe
the guy just isn’t interested in you and only wants to be caring and attentive to the woman he’s
interested in?”
Clearly a dense woman, Romona didn’t catch on. “What do you mean?”
ncing at Romona’s proud expression, Finnegan sighed inwardly. What a fool. Then he replied, “It’s
simple. Only my wife deserves to receive my warmth. You’re only worthy of seeing my dense side!”
Ding! The elevator opened.
Finnegan left before Romona could react.
Realization dawned on Romona, and her pretty face flushed with anger. “You jerk! You’re deliberately
picking on me. Stop right there!”
As she reached the doorway, she ran into Alisha, who was dressed in a striking red dress. Alisha
looked enchanting but not vulgar.
Her face was serious.
Seeing her, Romona frowned. “What are you doing here?”

As someone from the Five Great Families, she had an inherent bias against those with a background
like Alisha.
With an awkward smile, Alisha spoke to Finnegan. “Just now, Felix called me. They and the Chappell
family have already located the man disguised as a waiter. Should I wait for you to go over, or should
they catch him first?”
A serious expression reced Finnegan’s smile. “We finally found him. With the media’s attention now
on the Sable family, it’s time to tighten the!”
