Chapter 204 What Do You Take Me FOY
On the way home, Bruce was flushed with joy.
"I never thought I would join Old Mr. Caulder, Mr. Miles, and the like for a meal. It's all thanks to Finnegan! Besides, Mr. Miles and Old Mr. Haimowitz promised we could collaborate on business in the future. That's fantastic!"
Millicent's face turned ugly. "What are you so happy about? Are you planning to accept that guy as the son-in-law of the Zimmerman family?"
Recalling the Long Life Pill, Millicent felt like cursing at this moment.
Bruce's smile faded. "From what Mr. Miles and the others just said, Finnegan seems quite impressive. Even if he doesn't have any connections, his medical skills alone are enough to make him stand out. We can't afford to miss someone like him!"
After that, Bruce shared everything he had just learned with Millicent, Timothy, and the rest, especially the fact that Finnegan cured Soren's cancer, bringing him back to life.
In the end, he reminded Millicent and the rest sternly, Stop being prejudiced and observe Finnegan with a normal mindset. If he truly is capable, then we shall give our blessings to him and Bernie." The expressions of the Zimmerman siblings tightened as they turned to look at Millicent.
The latter wore a gloomy expression. "Bruce, is the three-month agreement between you and Bernice a joke now?"
Bruce sighed. "Of course not. It's just that we shouldn't put all our eggs in one basket. Mr. Sable is a good choice, and Finnegan has potential. Thus, we need to choose carefully!"
Millicent sneered, "Well, you just wait and see. You've definitely misjudged today. Finnegan's potential ca never surpass his background. No matter how hard he struggles, he will never surpass Mr. Sable." Although she said this, Millicent felt a bit uncertain deep down.
She bit her lip and looked out the window, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.
Not far from the Jerome Medical Clinic, in an underground parking lot, a car was parked in a corner.
A girl's embarrassed and angry voice could faintly be heard. "Finnegan, have you had enough?"
A moment later, the car door opened and Finnegan stepped out with a beaming smile. He was holding tissue in his hand, which he used to wipe his mouth.
"Ms. Caulder, in life, it's important to be sincere and discern right from wrong. Otherwise, you'll end u a disadvantage. Consider today a lesson learned!"
Blushing with anger, Myla walked down, hastily tidying up her disheveled clothes.
Turning back to look at her, Finnegan waved and said, "That's all. Until we meet again."
"Stop!" Myla stepped forward and shouted.
However. Finnegan showed no signs of stopping. "Don't worry. I won't mention today's events to anyone. I just hope that the next time we meet, your edges won't be as sharp.” Tears welled up in Myla's eyes. "Finnegan, are you just going to leave like this? Aren't you going to say anything? What do you take me for?"
Shrugging, Finnegan didn't respond anymore, turning and walking directly into the stairwell.
"Shameless b*stard!"
Seeing Finnegan just walk away like that, Myla felt wronged, slapping the side of the car with embarrassment.
She had never been treated like this, ever.
The key was that she agreed to it herself, and just thinking about it made her frustrated.
Tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably. "Am I still considered innocent?"
At this moment, a phone rang inside the car.
Wiping away her tears, Myla took out her phone and answered, "Dad! I-I'll drop Finnegan off and come back soon. What? Keaton might retaliate against Finnegan, and Mr. Prieto suggests we bring him back to Jipsdale tonight? Got it!"
Ending the call, Myla bit her lip. "Finnegan, you better not let me see you again in this lifetime. Otherwise I won't let today's matter rest!"
"Grandmaster"
Finnegan arrived at Jerome Medical Clinic in high spirits and coincidentally met Yuliana, who was cleaning up construction debris outside.
After a period of recuperation, Yuliana had fully recovered. The emaciated and ugly appearance caused b the torment of the maligorm was no longer visible.
Wearing a white one-piece dress, she exuded a gentle and classical charm, like a classical beauty stepping out of an ink painting.
However, her way of addressing him made Finnegan a bit helpless. "Yuliana, let's keep it casual. Just call me by my name." "But my grandpa calls you Master!"
Waving his hand, Finnegan said, "Don't mind him. Your grandpa is a bit old-fashioned. From now on, ji call me by my name." "Okay then." It was somewhat awkward for Yuliana to call Finnegan 'Grandmaster', so she nodded to sho she understood.
She asked, "You looked so happy just now. Did something good happen?"
The corner of Finnegan's mouth twitched.

He was grinning car to ear just now because he had a good time "teaching" Myla a lesson.
But of course, Finnegan wouldn't mention such things. "It's nothing, I just remembered something that made me happy. I'm going to check on something in the back!"
To avoid further questioning from Yuliana, Finnegan walked in.
The construction team was restoring the place according to the original layout, and Jerome was sitting on the side, looking somewhat bored.
"Mr. Magnussen!"
Upon hearing Finnegan's voice, Jerome stood up with joy. "You're here, Master."
Finnegan nodded and asked, "How's it going?"
Jerome replied, "I've asked the construction team to restore it according to the original foundation. The positioning and marking have been done, but it will take at least a month at the earliest." He sounded a bit helpless and anxious as he spoke.
He hadn't practiced medicine for two years, and now that he was about to resume his old profession, such an incident occurred.
He felt somewhat upset inside.
Finnegan gave a wry smile. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for causing trouble. I promise it won't happen again But if you're really anxious, you can start seeing patients first. The consultation takes place in front, so the construction in the back won't cause any disturbance!"
Jerome's eyes lit up. "I can start seeing patients first?"
Finnegan said, "If you're too anxious, you can start seeing patients first. The construction will be finished in the next two days. If I have time, I'll come over to help. This way, when it's time for the real opening, i will be more lively."
"Okay, I'll go arrange for the delivery of herbs now and start seeing patients in the front first."
Jerome was already itching to get started. With a slap on his thigh, he was ready to get things moving.
He took two steps forward but then stopped.
"Master, there's one more personal matter I want to ask for your help with."
Finnegan laughed and said, "Just speak your mind, Mr. Magnussen."
- Jerome said, "It's not a big deal. It's about Yuliana. Although she has recovered, her personality has beco much more introverted than before. I was thinking if you have time, you could help console her. After young people have more in common."
"Sure." Finnegan nodded. "Tonight, I'll be attending a gathering full of young people. I'll take her with 1
"Thank you, Master. I'll go arrange for the delivery of herbs now."
In
Finnegan lay down on Jerome's rocking chair.
Before long, Bernice called.
As soon as the call connected, Bernice's excited voice came through. "Finnegan, did you do something today? My grandpa just called me, and his attitude toward you seemed different. It's as if he no longer opposes me being with you."
Finnegan was not surprised by this. He briefly explained what happened at the Caulder residence.
Chuckling, he concluded, "Darling this just shows that your grandpa is still sharp. He recognized that I am a man of potential.”
"Yes, yes, you are a potential stock. But Grandpa said the agreement still needs to be followed as it was made in public.
Furrowing his brows, Finnegan asked, "The three-month agreement still needs to be followed?"
