A Healer’s Journey

Chapter 14 Looking For Finnegan

The Miles residence was about three hundred meters away from the Zimmerman residence. It was a much bigger mansion.

“That b*stard dared to mess with me. I’ll get my revenge sooner or later.”

On the journey home, Sasha was venting her anger and cursing non-stop.

Knowing Sasha’s spoiled personality, Trey did not say anything.

“So, did you get an answer?”

As soon as they entered the mansion, their mother, Kathleen Wagner, anxiously greeted them.

Sasha sneered, “Mom, it turns out we were overthinking things. It was just luck that Bernice woke up. No expert was involved.”

“What happened?” she queried.

Trey briefly explained the situation with Finnegan but intentionally left out the conflict between Sasha and him.

After hearing this, Kathleen’s expression turned gloomy. “I guess we really were overthinking things. A young man in his twenties is unlikely to be an expert. We’ll still have to rely on Dr. Cooper and the others.”

“Is Dr. Cooper here?” Trey asked.

Kathleen nodded. “He came shortly after both of you left for the Zimmerman residence. He brought along several specialists from the hospital. They are trying to stabilize your father’s condition.”

“I wonder if there will be any improvements,” Trey uttered.

Ten minutes later, the door opened; Alexander walked out with several medical specialists.

Kathleen hurriedly went up to them with her children beside her. “Dr. Cooper, how is Gilbert’s condition?”

The doctor replied, “His old injury is in his heart and chest. He was fine when he was young, but his condition worsened as he aged. According to current medical methods, it cannot be cured. Unfortunately, we can only delay the time of deterioration. But even with this delay…”

He sighed before continuing, “I estimate he won’t be able to last more than a month.”
