Chapter 158 I Want To Become Your Subordinate
Doom Star had recovered from his injuries by ninety percent, regaining enough strength to protect himself.
Alisha approached him, observing him closely, and exclaimed, “Finnegan, you’re truly remarkable!”
When Doom Star was brought back, he was covered in blood, with over a dozen gaping wounds that made it seem
like he could die at any moment.
However, within just two or three days, there were no longer any signs of his injuries.
Finnegan didn’t respond to Alisha’s comment.
“Do you have any money with you? If not, do you want me to arrange some for you?” she asked.
Doom Star shook his head.
With a helpless smile, Finnegan said, “You’re really indifferent, Doom Star. I’ll have Ms. Wahlstrom arrange for
someone to take you wherever you want to go.”
Suddenly, Doom Star blurted out, “I’m not leaving!”
Finnegan was taken aback. “Not leaving?” he thought. “Could it be that he has become attached to living here?”
“I want to become your subordinate!” Doom Star declared, his words concise and clear.
Finnegan pondered for a moment before responding, “Doom Star, saving you was merely a coincidence, combined
with a sense of fate. There was no other intention behind it. You don’t need to feel obligated to follow me or repay
me.”
Doom Star remained firm. “I’ve made my decision!” he declared.
With that, Doom Star moved to sit cross-legged under a nearby tree, tightly gripping his black saber.
His eyes were shut tightly, indicating that he had made up his mind and had no desire to discuss the matter further.
Alisha lightly touched Finnegan’s arm and whispered, “Should I have someone forcefully remove him?”
“Forget it,” Finnegan replied, shaking his head after a few seconds of silence. “Perhaps this is the fate between him
and me. If he wants to stay, let him stay for now.”
He paused before adding, “Besides, even if we gather everyone, we may not be able to force him out. It’s more
likely that we would be asking for trouble.”
“Finnegan, don’t underestimate him. Is he really that impressive?”
“Enough talk. Go get me some breakfast!”

Meanwhile, at the private hospital where Vilmar and Matthias were killed…
=
1/4
Despite the terrible incident that occurred the previous night, it had no impact on the hospital, which always had a
steady stream of patients.
In fact, many people were still unaware of what had happened.
The morgue was located in the basement, where the air was cold and chilling, penetrating to the bone.
Nevertheless, a crowd had gathered before the two corpses, watching as a few forensic examiners conducted the
autopsy.
Among the crowd were members of the Royle family and the Green family, who had rushed over from Bellridge
overnight.
Vilmar’s father, Jeovani, and Matthias’ father, Barrett, were present, accompanied by their personnel.
Barrett clenched his fists and his face contorted in grief and fury as he looked at his son, who had been shot in the
head. “Mr. Royle, are we really going to accept the explanation given by the Jadeborough Police Department? That
Mr. Vilmar and Matt got what they deserved?”
Jeovani’s expression remained unchanged, as if the one who had died wasn’t his own son. “Let’s wait until
after they finish the autopsy” he replied.
He had arranged for another autopsy to be conducted on Vilmar and Matthias, as he refused to believe that they
had suddenly succumbed to their animalistic instincts.
Barrett hesitated, struggling to find the right words to say. The Green family had risen to prominence through the
Royle family, so he didn’t dare to defy Jeovani.
Soon, the coroners they had brought in completed the autopsy.
One of them stepped forward and said, “Mr. Royle, according to our examination, the external injuries on Mr. Vilmar
and Mr. Matthias seem severe, but they were not life-threatening. We conducted a chemical reaction test, and no
drugs were found in either individual that could cause abnormal behavior. In conclusion, our examination results
align with those of the Jadeborough Police Department. Their actions appear to be autonomous and not influenced
by external factors.”
Before the coroner could finish speaking, Barrett grabbed him by the collar and shouted, “D*mn it, do you think my
son and Mr. Vilmar are idiots? Would they do such a thing in front of so many people at the hospital? Use your
brain!”
The coroner hastily explained, “Mr. Green, this is indeed what our examination results show.”
“Let them go,” Jeovani intervened, stopping Barrett from throwing a punch.
Reluctantly, Barrett released the coroner, and the group quickly left.
However, Barrett couldn’t calm down. “Mr. Royle, although Mr. Vilmar and Matt like to have fun, they would never
engage in such activities in public like this. There’s definitely something wrong.”
Jeovani responded indifferently, “Don’t you think I know that? However, with dozens of witnesses, there’s no
denying their guilt. There’s even surveillance footage as evidence. How can we prove their innocence? Moreover,
the Wright family has already intervened. I doubt even my father can do anything about this.”
Barrett wore a bitter expression. “But…”
2/4
Jeovani waved his hand, cutting him off. “Leave now and prepare to transport their bodies back to Bellridge. I’ll
handle the rest personally.”
After glancing at Matthias, Barrett nodded stiffly and left with his two bodyguards.
Left alone with his entourage, Jeovani nodded and asked, “How is the investigation into Finnegan going?”
His trusted aide replied, “Finnegan comes from an ordinary teacher’s family. Five years ago, he offended the
Chomsky family in Jadeborough and was forced to flee his hometown. When he returned recently, he directly
confronted the Chomsky family and has been in a dominant position ever since, remaining unscathed even when
the Chomsky family fell into decline. I personally suspect that the downfall of the Chomsky family isn’t as the public
has been led to believe. For some unknown reason, I can’t find any leads related to Finnegan. As for the deaths of
Mr. Vilmar and Mr. Matthias last night, I haven’t found any clues related to him either. However, we have confirmed
his relationships with the Haimowitz and Miles families, as well as the Langdon and Wahlstrom families. He has
cured the heads of these families.”
Jeovani narrowed his eyes, his suspicion growing with each failed attempt to uncover the truth. “Continue
investigating him and spare no expense,” he instructed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPausing for a moment, he added, “As for the Black family, offer them some benefits. Let’s see if we can persuade
Ariendel to speak. She may have valuable information.”
“Understood!” his trusted aide replied, nodding. He signaled for two men to accompany him as they prepared to
leave.
However, as they approached the entrance of the morgue, a tall young man, standing nearly two meters high,
suddenly appeared.
To their surprise, it was the same young man who had rescued Solomon from the police department the other
night.
The trusted aide became instantly cautious. “Who are you?”
Jeovani glanced back casually, his eyes narrowing. “Everyone, leave. Let him in.”
The trusted aide hesitated for a moment, then nodded, motioning for the others to depart with him.
Once they were alone, Jeovani approached the tall young man, his expression serious. “Captain Woulfe.”
However, the young man seemed oblivious to Jeovani’s presence as he walked past him, heading straight for the
bodies of Vilmar and Matthias.
Jeovani suppressed any sign of displeasure and followed behind, showing respect by slightly bending his waist.
As Brutus Woulfe glanced at the lifeless bodies of Vilmar and Matthias, a cold glint appeared in his eyes. “Did Vilmar
investigate Finnegan’s background before making his move?”
“He did,” Jeovani confirmed.
Furrowing his brows, Brutus continued, “It shouldn’t have been difficult to uncover Finnegan’s connection to the
Wahlstrein family. All Vilmar needed to do was trace it through Solomon. So why did he come up empty-handed?”
3/4
Even if Vilmar lacked intelligence, he wouldn’t have dared to touch Finnegan once he discovered his relationship
with the Wahlstrom family.
Jeovani nodded in agreement. “It is indeed strange. What’s more, Vilmar didn’t even find out about Finnegan’s
previous conflict with Solomon.”
Brutus sneered. “It appears someone has been covering up Finnegan’s actions. I will thoroughly investigate this
matter. You, on the other hand, should return to Bellridge with your team.”
As he spoke, a malicious glint flashed in his eyes.
“I want to see if anyone is trying to hinder Mr. Weatherby’s progress, specifically by using Finnegan to target those
whom Mr. Weatherby has taken an interest in.”
