Finnegan didn’t finish the treatment until after three in the afternoon.
The bruising on Quiana’s head, the moderate concussion, and the internal abdominal bruising had all been taken care of
“How many more days until my mother wakes up, Dr. Cooper? I’ll have to rely on you all to take care of her in the meantime.
Alexander nodded. “Don’t worry, we’ll take good care of it. Let me arrange for some food to be delivered to my office. You must be hungry too!”
With a nod of agreement, Finnegan didn’t refuse.
Pulling out the phone that was set to silent before treating Quiana, he noticed that there were over ten missed calls.
The calls came from Bernice. Casper, and Yuliana.
Finnegan first called Casper back.
Finnegan, where have you been? Why aren’t you answering Ms. Magnussen’s calls or mine? The Jerome Medical Clinic is going to run out of business!”
As soon as the call connected, Casper’s anxious voice came through.
Finnegan probably guessed what was going on. “Has Hopevale Medical Clinic started its business?”
“They started their business early this morning. It’s such a low blow!” Casper replied angrily. “Not only did they bring in an experienced doctor with a team of physicians, but they also advertised that they were providing free medical treatment. Now all the patients have gone to their clinic across the street!”
Upon hearing this, Finnegan wasn’t too surprised. After all, Hailey had already mentioned it to him before.
After opening his clinic. Liam would invite Kenneth, the chief consultant of Regi Group, to treat the patients.
Liam was an elderly man who was highly skilled in medicine, yet preferred profit over fame.
It was unexpected that Liam would actually use the method of offering free services to compete against Jerome Medical Clinic.
Hearing no response from Finnegan, Casper pressed on “What should we do? If this continues, they’ll steal our business!”
Finnegan composed himself and said. “Treating and saving people has never been a business. Although Liam’s approach is somewhat despicable, as long as his doctors can cure the patients, that’s all that
matters.
“So, you’re saying you don’t care anymore?”
“Of course. I’m even going to help him make a name for himself.”

Casper was puzzled, “Help him make a name for himself?”
With a hint of amusement, Finnegan said, “Put Shaun on the phone.”
When Shaun took the phone over, Finnegan said. “Take Zephyr and Jaxon out for a stroll now, and try to let all of Jadeborough know about the free medical treatment at Hopevale Medical Clinic. Let’s see how long the Sable family’s wealth can last.”
“Oh my… How did I not think of such a brilliant and fantastic solution? I’ll get to it right away!”
After ending the call. Finnegan dialed Bernice’s number
He was about to speak when the call got through, but Bernice was quicker. “I heard about what happened to Mrs. Larkin this morning and wanted to ask how you were, but I’m outside right now. Let’s talk when you come out,” she said.
Finnegan noticed a hint of unease in Bernice’s words.
Furrowing his brows, he responded, “All right”
After hanging up the phone. Finnegan changed out of his sterilized clothing and left the intensive care unit.
Outside, besides Bernice, Romona was also present, and both of them looked somewhat unwell.
Bernice stepped forward and asked, “How is Mrs, Larkin doing?”
Finnegan held her hand as he replied, “She’s okay. Shell wake up in a few days. Why do you look a bit off, though?”
Glancing back at Romona, Bernice said. “I’m going to check on Mrs. Larkin, so you go ahead and chat with Captain Quickwood.”
Seeing this, Finnegan became even more certain that something was wrong, but he didn’t press Bernice any further.
“Sure thing. I’ll catch up with you later.”
Finnegan and Romona then arrived at the director’s office.
Having come out early, Alexander already knew what had happened. He brought food for Finnegan and then left his own office, leaving the space for Finnegan and Romona,
The latter flashed Finnegan a complex look and said, “Finish your meal first before we talk, so you don’t lose your appetite after our conversation.”
Finnegan furrowed his brows, opening the lunch box. “Don’t assume I can’t handle it. You talk, I’ll eat
“Well… That works too.”
As Finnegan continued to cat, Romona explained the circumstances leading up to and following Quiana’s fatal accident. She told him the eyewitness testimonies and even the attitudes of the deceased’s family members in detail.

Finnegan swallowed his food, his expression neither shocked nor pleased. “So, they refuse to resolve this peacefully? They just want my mom to go to jail?”
“Exactly, even if you offered them ten million, they still wouldn’t let it go.”
“Taking a bite of his meal, Finnegan said. “I understand their grief over the death of their elder. I won’t hold it against them for hurting my mother in their state of sorrow and anger. As for the rest, I’ll make the arrangements to talk to them personally later!”
Given all the evidence pointing to Quiana as the one who hit and killed the person, Finnegan was not an unreasonable man.
But, in the end, Quiana was his mother, so Finnegan was willing to seek forgiveness from the family for her sake.
If ten million won’t suffice, then I’ll for a hundred million. If a hundred million isn’t enough, then we’ll aim for a billion!
Romona said with a bitter smile, “There’s one more thing. Do you want to finish eating before we talk about it?”
She was afraid that after talking about Desmond, Finnegan would really lose his appetite.
In fact, he might even explode in anger.
“As I’ve already mentioned, I’m not someone who can’t handle pressure. If there’s anything, just say it. Do the family members have any unreasonable demands? Finnegan said while eating.
Romona shook her head. “No, it’s about your father. He’s in trouble too.”
Finnegan’s hands trembled when he heard that, and his expression grew serious as well.
But he quickly regained his composure and said, “Go on.”
After careful consideration, Romona explained to Finnegan the circumstances leading up to and following Desmond’s incident Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
In the end, she sighed lightly. “Your dad’s injuries aren’t severe, and the student who jumped off the building isn’t in life-threatening danger, just simple fractures and abrasions. But the student’s parents are being very stubborn, even if they’re restrained, they’re threatening to drag your dad to jail with them!”
Finnegan’s brow furrowed deeply.
Yet, he remained silent throughout, as if it had nothing to do with him. He ate his meal earnestly, not letting any of his food go to waste.
This eerie silence was extremely stressful for Romona. Finnegan?”
Setting down the lunch box, Finnegan stood up and said, “Come with me to see my dad.”
They then left the Dean’s office and arrived at Desmond’s ward.
Desmond was already awake at the time.
Upon seeing Finnegan, be quickly said, “Finnegan, you’re aware of what happened, right? Please hurry and

check on that student. Why is that child so impulsive?”
“He’s okay now, Dad. Let me check on your injuries before we discuss any further.”
No matter how anxious Desmond was, Finnegan checked him over to make sure there were no other major issues. As Desimond urged him on, Finnegan then left the ward.
As he reached the corridor, Finnegan’s eyelids twitched slightly. “Was my father’s situation also an accident?”
Understanding Finnegan’s point, Romona replied, “Based on the surveillance camera footage from the classroom, your father’s incident was indeed an accident. He confiscated a student’s phone, and the student, in a fit of extreme emotion, climbed up the window and accidentally fell.”
Pausing for a moment, Romona added, “But my grandfather says that such things happen every day and it’s quite normal. However, if it happens to the same family, then it’s too much of a coincidence! So what my grandfather means is, you should handle your own family matters yourself!”
“Do you think it’s a coincidence, then?” Finnegan asked
Unsure why Finnegan was asking her, Romona countered, “What do you
think?”
Finnegan turned around and said indifferently, “Make arrangements for me to meet with the parents of the students and the family of the deceased. As for my sister, don’t let her know that something has happened to our parents!”
It’s fine if this is all merely a coincidence. If this is a conspiracy, however… I don’t mind killing a few people!
