A Healer’s Journey

Chapter 10 You Are Sick

“Finn! Over here!” Rhiannon waved at Finnegan in front of the Porsche store.

Finnegan walked over and gently knocked against the back of her head. “You’re such a troublemaker.”

“Excuse me?” Rhiannon chuckled and linked her arm with his. “My senior is simply amazing, and she developed a good impression of you when she learned that you’d rescued a damsel in distress. I’m just helping you win over a beauty. How does that make me a troublemaker?”

“I’m not interested!” Finnegan replied..

Rhiannon added, “Finn, Ms. Lindsey is around five and a half feet tall and stunningly beautiful with fair skin and long legs, not to mention she earns a salary in the millions, making hier a legitimate wealthy woman. Do you have any idea how many men have fallen for her? You should be thankful that she has taken an interest in you.”

“I’m

not interested,” Finnegan reiterated what he said earlier.

“Go ahead and keep putting up a tough front. I’d love to see your reaction when you meet her later.”

Rhiannon led him to the manager’s office, where Finnegan finally met Lindsey Jennings.

Lindsey’s appearance indeed matched Rhiannon’s description.

Her suit fitted her perfectly, accentuating her upper torso, while the tight uniform skirt hugged her figure, revealing her curves. Her long legs, wrapped in black stockings, were absolutely stunning. Her shoulder-length hair, which was dyed a soft coffee color, had been styled into voluminous waves, giving her an air of maturity.

Despite being only twenty-four years old, she exuded the dominating aura of a mature woman that was enhanced by her tall stature.

Nonetheless, Finnegan noticed something was amiss. “You’re sick!”

Rhiannon, who was about to introduce him to Lindsey, staggered backward upon hearing that. “What are you talking about, Finn?”

Lindsey was about to stand up. Her l*ps twitched.

She had heard Rhiannon mention Finnegan several times. She knew he had excellent grades and character and had a reputation for being a reliable source of help for women in distress. All of that had left a positive impression on Lindy That was why she was willing to meet up with Finnegan to see if they were compauble with each other.
