Chapter 109 What The Future Holds
“Where are you going, Finny?”
“Why don’t you follow us? After all, they’re family!”
“You’re a special consultant for General Hospital. If you don’t even visit your family, others will surely
criticize you.”
The moment Finnegan and his parents arrived at the hospital, they kept trying to convince him to visit
Xavier, Ximena, and Max.
“Mom, Dad, you guys go ahead. I have a patient to attend to. I’ll see how things go after I’m done with
work.”
With that, Finnegan walked away swiftly, and neither Desmond nor Quiana could stop him.
Quiana stomped her foot in frustration and grumbled, “How can he be so heartless? They’re family!”
Desmond was also feeling slightly dejected because he had wanted Finnegan to visit Xavier and
Ximena.
However, Desmond didn’t want Quiana to call him a hypocrite, so he leaned on his cane and said,
“Let’s go and see what the current situation is like first.”
After leaving his parents, Finnegan arrived in Soren’s ward.
Compared to the day before, Soren seemed a lot more energetic, and he could even get out of bed.
“You’re looking good, Old Mr. Caulder!” Finnegan said.
Soren turned around and smiled when he saw Finnegan. “It’s all thanks to your advanced medical
skills! You saved my life!”
“You flatter me, Old Mr. Caulder. Let’s proceed with your treatment. After this, you can get discharged
and rest at home.” Finnegan helped Soren lie in bed and gave the latter the final acupuncture
treatment.
Around ten minutes later, the treatment ended, and Soren felt even better.
Therefore, Soren, who had consulted countless renowned doctors, was utterly impressed. “Finn, you
should go to Durbaine or somewhere larger. With your talents, staying in Jadeborough is a waste!”
Finnegan wiped his hands and smiled. “Old Mr. Caulder, Jadeborough is a big city. It’s the fifth largest
city in the country!”
“That’s merely in terms of economics.” Soren gestured for Finnegan to take a seat. “From the
perspective of historical background, Jadeborough is still a new metropolis. It’s nothing compared to
Durbaine, Jipsdale, and Kenfort. Those places will truly challenge and help one grow. Besides, you’re
capable and young. You should see what it’s like out there! I strongly believe you’ll be very successful
once you have your own business!”
In response, Finnegan flashed a smile and said, “I’ll see what the future holds for me. Now, I just want
to keep my family company and make up for the five years I lost.”
Seeing that Finnegan wasn’t interested, Soren heaved a sigh inwardly and stopped convincing him.
In the next second, Soren asked, “By the way, I’ve been wanting to ask you something for a few days
now.

May I know who you learned your medical skills from? Even Mr. Hicks couldn’t do anything to help
me!”
Sawyer had told Finnegan not to tell anyone about their relationship, so the latter merely gave a vague
answer. “I learned my medical skills from an old traditional medicine practitioner. I don’t think him, Old
Mr. Caulder.”

As a former headmaster of Durbaine University and a professor, Soren knew Finnegan was refusing to
share his mentor’s name.
Hence, Soren stopped pursuing the matter. “Whoever your mentor is, he must be very impressive.”
Finnegan rose to his feet. “Old Mr. Caulder, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll visit you to wish you a happy
birthday in a few days.”
“Sure! You go ahead!”
After leaving Soren’s ward, Finnegan went to his office in General Hospital.
He planned to go home with his parents after they were done visiting Xavier and the others.
Moments after he sat down in his office, he received a call from Rhiannon.
“Finn, where are you?” she asked.
“I’m at General Hospital, waiting for Mom and Dad to finish visiting Xavier and the others. I’ll head
home with them later,” Finnegan replied.
Rhiannon was puzzled. “Xavier and the others? Isn’t Max the only one in the hospital?”
“Don’t you know what happened?”
“What do you mean?” Rhiannon asked.
Upon hearing that, Finnegan realized why Rhiannon was unaware of what had happened.
Desmond didn’t dare to tell Rhiannon about it because he was the one who let Xavier drive the car
away and the car was now ruined.
With a silent sigh, Finnegan revealed. “Xavier and Ximena got into a car accident yesterday.”
He then went on to briefly tell her what had happened.
Rhiannon, who wasn’t one to keep up with the news, suddenly raised her voice.. “What? My car is
ruined? That Porsche cost around two million! I’ve only driven less than two hundred kilometers with it!
No! Uncle Raymond’s family must compensate for the car! Also, I want them to pay back the two
million they borrowed!”
Finnegan ma*saged his temples and answered, “I won’t let Uncle Raymond’s family take advantage of
us. However, it’s inappropriate for us to bring it up now. After all, they’re still hospitalized. If we ask for
compensation and the repayment now, we’ll seem inhumane and heartless.”
“How is it inappropriate? They treated us harshly over the years!” Rhiannon scoffed.
Despite saying that, Rhiannon didn’t force Finnegan to go after Raymond’s family.
Instead, she uttered excitedly, “Finn, Ms. Lindsey just told me Tristan Group is finished. Killian and his
dad committed suicide by jumping off a building. Did you know about that?”
Obviously, Finnegan knew about it because he was the one who caused it.
However, he didn’t want Rhiannon to know about his dark side. “They deserved it! Don’t pay too much
attention to that, okay? Focus on your work with Ms. Haimowitz.”
“Of course I won’t pay too much attention to that. It’s just that I can’t imagine how scary the scene must
have been, considering they were reduced to two bloody pulps!”
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Right then, someone knocked on Finnegan’s door. “Rhia, I need to attend to something. I’m hanging up
now,” he said.
“Wait! Ms. Lindsey asked if you were free today. She wants you to give her the final treatment.”
Upon mulling over it for a while, Finnegan answered, “I’ll be there in the afternoon. Give me her
address.
With that, Finnegan hung up the phone. “Come in!”
The door was pushed open, and Desmond, with a cane in his hand, entered the room alongside
Quiana.
Unfortunately, Raymond, Adrian, and their wives followed behind.
Finnegan couldn’t help frowning because the people he wanted to face the least had just appeared
before him.
Quiana looked around the office and said, “I thought Melinda was pulling my leg! Who would’ve known
this could be your office?”
Desmond’s face was glowing when he said proudly, “Well done, Finny!”
Since Raymond and Adrian were there, Finnegan’s expression was rather gloomy. “Mom, Dad, I’ll send Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
you guys home.”
As soon as those words fell, Melinda tugged at Quiana’s clothes and urged, “Quiana!”
Nearby, Qahira was also shooting Desmond a look.
Instantly, Quiana’s expression became slightly awkward. “Finny, I heard about how you even managed
to cure a cancer patient. Come with me to see Max, okay? After all, he’s your cousin!”
Desmond, who was never one to beg others for favors, voiced in an awkward tone, “Finny, Xavier lost a
lot of blood due to the accident yesterday, and he’s also suffering from an intracranial hemorrhage. He
might not regain his consciousness. Besides, Ximena’s legs are fractured, and her condition is like
mine back. then. We’re family, Finny. They’re my niece and nephew, Raymond’s only children. Take a
look at them. okay?”
After Desmond said that, Raymond, Adrian, and their wives gazed at Finnegan anxiously.
In response, Finnegan took a deep breath, stood up, and said, “Mom, Dad, I’m sending you guys
home.”
