A Healer’s Journey

Chapter 212 Trouble Might Be Brewing

As evening drew near, due to the rare occasion of Desmond inviting him home for dinner, Finnegan ended his treatment of Waylynn and politely declined Stephen’s dinner invitation, asking Alisha to pick him up instead.

“Why didn’t you ask Zephyr to pick you up?”

Once they got in the car, Alisha tossed out a comment in a resentful manner.

Finnegan understood Alisha’s thoughts. “You’re right. Next time, I’ll just have Mr. Zephyr pick me up. No need to trouble you, Ms. Wahlstrom.”

Alisha’s heart tightened. “If you dare!”

As the words left her mouth, Alisha realized she had been tricked. She then scoffed and said, “So you’ve learned to tease me, huh? It would be even better if you could learn to sleep with me!”

With that, she started the car without uttering a single word.

Finnegan acted as if he hadn’t heard, turning his head to look at the gradually setting sun outside the window.

“B*stard!” she cursed under her breath. Afterward, she said, “I recently received news from Bellridge. It seems the Royle family is planning to make a move against you!”

Finnegan lifted his eyelids slightly. “A move against me? Have they gone mad?”

The deaths of Vilmar and Matthias were indeed the result of his slight manipulation.

However, they didn’t have any evidence.

There was also a warning from the Wright family, so the Royle family wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.

Next, behind the Royle family was Hank. In that stage of contention between the Wahlstrom and Zymons families, Hank would likely not allow the Royle family to stir up trouble.

Alisha replied, “It’s not certain at the moment, but Jeovani has been investigating you secretly a few times. It seems he has intentions to make a move.”

Upon hearing that, Finnegan furrowed his brows.

Although he didn’t take the Royle family seriously, they were still the second most powerful family in Nuthana, just after the Langdon family.

If Jeovani acted recklessly for his son, he could stir up some trouble for Finnegan.

“Assign some clever individuals to keep an eye on my family for me,” Finnegan said.
