A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 142 Thoughtful Of Him

Given Mandy’s status and position, she would never casually visit a neighbor like an ordinary person, much less get

acquainted with a common housewife like Quiana.

Yet, she had done just that.

Naturally, Finnegan wanted to understand if Mandy harbored any ulterior motives.

Mandy’s eyes darted nervously as she didn’t dare to meet Finnegan’s gaze.

Her goal was simple. Following Howard’s instruction, she needed to do everything in her power to become

Finnegan’s significant other.

However, as she couldn’t find any opportunity to interact with Finnegan, she had no choice but to touch with him

indirectly through Quiana.

get in

Nevertheless, Mandy didn’t have the courage to tell him the truth.

Finnegan narrowed his eyes. “If you can’t explain yourself, I’d prefer if you don’t show up in front of me or my

parents in the future, Ms. Langdon.”

“I’ll tell you!” Afraid of offending him, Mandy quickly came up with an excuse. “It’s my grandpa’s idea.”

Finnegan asked, “Your grandpa?”

“Yes!” She nodded. “Grandpa says you’re a miraculous doctor capable of reviving even the dead and can save him

during crucial moments. No amount of wealth is significant if one can’t live long enough to spend it. Grandpa

suggested I build a good rapport with you. But because I’m afraid of disturbing you, I can only come to chat with

Mrs. Larkin occasionally.”

After finishing uttering the response in one go, Mandy grew anxious, fearing Finnegan might realize she wasn’t

being entirely truthful.

Finnegan sensed she was holding back information.

Nevertheless, knowing she bore.no ill will, he didn’t press further.

Finnegan looked into the distance.

“I noticed there are always people patrolling around Dragon Bay’s No. 1 Villa. Did you make the arrangement?”

Mandy replied, “Grandpa was worried someone might target your family, so he had me assigned our men to

protect all of you secretly.”

Finnegan bobbed his head. “I see. That’s thoughtful of him!”

When they moved into Dragon Bay’s No. 1 Villa, he had detected people other than those arranged by Alisha

lurking around.

However, he hadn’t given it much thought since they didn’t harbor ill intention. He had merely assumed they were

Dragon Bay’s No. 1 Villa’s security guards.

Little did he expect those men to be there on the Langdon family’s instruction.

Noticing Finnegan’s facial expression softening, Mandy felt slightly relieved. “Dr. Larkin, you’re not mad at me, are

you?”

“Do you see me as someone that unreasonable?” Finnegan rolled his eyes in annoyance. “Still, it’s fine for you to

visit my mom, but be careful with what you tell her. I don’t want them to worry unnecessarily about me.”

Only after ascertaining he wasn’t angry with her did Mandy completely relax.

Finnegan asked, “You mentioned you were afraid I wouldn’t agree to something. What’s the matter?”

Mandy answered cautiously, “There’s an exclusive gathering tonight hosted by Vilmar Royle, the eldest son of

Bellridge’s Royle family. I’d like you to accompany me.”

After saying that, she gazed at him apprehensively, her palms sweaty from anxiety.

Finnegan could tell from her keyed-up mien that this was no ordinary gathering.

If it were in the past, he would’ve refused her without hesitation as he wasn’t fond of attending events that weren’t

related to him, but at the thought of the Langdon family taking the initiative to arrange their men to safeguard his

family, Finnegan pondered briefly and agreed, “Sure!” I don’t have anything else to do anyway, so I’ll just go with

her as a way of expressing my gratitude.

Mandy was slightly taken aback. “Dr. Larkin, are you really saying yes? Aren’t you going to ask about some details

of this gathering?”

Finnegan stood up and strode toward the mansion. “It doesn’t matter what kind of gathering this is. All I know is

that if I don’t go with you, my mom won’t be able to sleep tonight. Come pick me up after dinner. Also, just call me

Finnegan. There’s no need to be so formal with me, especially around others.”

Mandy’s captivating eyes gleamed as she looked at Finnegan’s retreating figure.

She murmured, “You chose not to ask any questions, so there’s no reason for you to blame me afterward.”

After dinner, when Finnegan was about to leave, Quiana held him back and repeatedly reminded him, “Finny, you

must be on your best behavior when you attend the event with Ms. Langdon. Do you understand? You’ve offended

the Zymons family’s scion, and I reckon only the Langdon family is capable of protecting you now. You must do well

to butter Ms. Langdon up. Don’t let us worry about you so

much.”

To keep his parents from worrying, he merely nodded in agreement.

Only after setting their minds at ease did Finnegan exit the mansion and get into Mandy’s car. Soon, they arrived at

one of the most high-end clubs in Jadeborough, Monarch.

Although it was still early, the parking lot of Monarch was already filled with luxury cars, each worth at least a

million.

Two rows of over twenty hostesses in gowns stood at the grand entrance to welcome the guests. All of them were

fair, gorgeous, and with slender, long legs.

The slits in their dresses almost reached their waists, drawing glances from passing men.

Mandy instructed her bodyguards to wait outside, then casually linked her arms around Finnegan’s as they walked

through the doors. “Most of the guests tonight are rich heirs and heiresses from Bellridge. Some of them might be

discourteous, so I hope you won’t mind them.”

Glancing at his arm, now wrapped in hers, he felt a peculiar feeling creep into his heart.

Finnegan felt slightly uncomfortable, yet he didn’t feel it appropriate to embarrass Mandy by withdrawing his arm.

“Since most of them are from Bellridge, why are they hosting the gathering in Jadeborough?”

Although the two cities weren’t far, it still struck him as unnecessary.

Mandy answered, “The fight between the Zyrnons family and the Wahlstrom family will take place the day after

tomorrow, so they’re here to watch the show.”

Finnegan gained clarity and bobbed his head. The face-off between Seth and the Wahlstrom family has indeed

garnered much attention.

“It seems to me you aren’t too keen on attending this gathering. Why come, then?”

They entered Monarch, and Mandy told the hostess their private room number before replying to Finnegan, “I have

no choice!”

She was indeed reluctant to attend the gathering, but for people of their stature, they had to make an appearance

regardless of their unwillingness.

Otherwise, they would be shunned by members of their social circle, which could, in turn, affect their family.

Besides, many people had called her in advance, making it hard for her to refuse..

Finnegan remarked, “Makes sense.”

Not long after, the hostess led them to the fifth floor and came to a halt before the most extravagant private room

in Monarch, Emperor Suite No. 1.

The private room emphasized guest privacy, so they couldn’t just push the door open to enter.

The hostess pressed the intercom to communicate with the staff inside. “Open the door. Two for Emperor Suite No.

1 have arrived.”

Moments later, the door swung open from the inside.

However, the private room, which should’ve been lively, was eerily silent and dark.

The hostess sensibly stepped aside. “Please enter.”

re guests

Finnegan focused his spiritual energy on his eyes. After he saw clearly the scene inside the room, the corner of his

mouth twitched. What the hell? What are they doing?

Before Finnegan could regain his senses, Mandy strode inward, dragging him along with her arms wrapped around

his.

As soon as they were two meters into the room, dazzling bright lights suddenly lit up the initially pitch- black room,

and romantic music began to play.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At the same time, five men set off confetti cannons, showering Mandy and Finnegan with small pieces of – colored

paper.
