A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana) Novel novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Released 

“Are you having a nosebleed?” 

Romona realized something was amiss when Finnegan came out of the bathroom. 

A mocking smile curved her l*ps as she said, “Just as expected, you don’t mean what you say. I know that you’re playing hard to get with me.” 

Staring at Romona’s provocative outfit, Finnegan blushed. 

“Can you go and get dressed first?” 

It wasn’t a case where Finnegan was easily startled, but he was just too used to Romona’s macho demeanor. 

The sudden emergence of her submissive feminine side came as too big of a shock to him. 

Only when Romona lowered her head did she remember what she was wearing. 

The epiphany caused her to push Finnegan away. “Get lost, you shameless b*stard!” 

“F*ck! Why are you scolding me now? You were the one who decided to dress that way.” 

The door was subsequently slammed shut with a bang, but Romona’s outburst could still be heard. 

“You b*stard, weren’t you the one who asked me to do so? You must have been coveting me from the moment you made the bet. How am I going to show my face in public now?” 

Finnegan responded with a wry chuckle. 

She was the one who was insisted on this, so how is it my fault now? 

Nevertheless, after recalling the dance that lasted a few minutes, Finnegan mumbled to himself, “Luckily, she took it seriously. Otherwise, I would have missed such a sensational scene.” 

A short while later, Romona returned in a conservative-looking pajamas. 

Despite the intense flush on her cheeks, her anger didn’t subside at all. “I’ll kill you if let sl*p what happened tonight.” 

Finnegan scratched his head. “To be honest, aren’t you overreacting? It’s nothing personal; I just don’t feel like it.” 

“You b*stard, stop acting noble after taking advantage of me!” 

How can he say something like that after my dance? 

Romona grabbed a pillow and threw it at Finnegan who caught it easily. 

“All right, all right, whatever you say. But you should forget the matter of being my maid. Your time would be better used to protect those who need it.” 

“No, I want to see for myself how much you dislike me. For this entire month, I’ll come to see you

whenever I’m free!” 

After spending some time with each other, Finnegan got a grasp of Romona’s character. 

The more he persuaded her to do something, the greater her desire to resist. 

He decided to stop doing so. “Suit yourself. I’m leaving.” 

Since it was too late to return to Dragon Bay, Finnegan decided to spend the night at Jerome Medical Clinic. 

Romona barked, “Stop! I-” She was interrupted by the abrupt ring of her phone. “Who’s calling at this ungodly hour?” Upon answering it, she sprang to her feet. “What? Who let him go? He’s already out?” 

Stunned, Finnegan waited for Romona to end the call before asking, “What happened?” 

Romona replied through her gritted teeth, “My colleague just called to inform that someone had gotten Solomon released with an order from the Department of Enforcement. On top of that, the police officers who beat him up on my orders have been punished and demoted!” 

“The Department of Enforcement?” 

Finnegan’s pupils contracted sharply. 

That’s the department responsible for all of Loang’s police. The Zymons family not only has an ally within it, but whoever it is also has the authority to release the man Romona personally arrested. 

“Who’s there?” 

Just as he was wondering who it was who had the Zymons family’s back, the voice of a guard from the Quickwood family was heard. 

Casting her frustration aside, Romona walked out to the balcony with Finnegan following her from behind. “Who is it?” 

They were greeted by the sight of four guards surrounding a frosty-looking young man whose b*dy was covered in blood. 

He was holding a broken blade that was as black as the night, 

Narrowing his eyes, Finnegan scrutinized the young man who was emitting an icy aura. 

Romona ordered, “Capture him and find out if he’s targeting me!” 

The four guards, all Enigma Realm warriors, swiftly swung into action. 

In response, the youth met their attacks without a word. The barrage of his assault was so overwhelming that the four guards had to fall back. 

Finnegan’s eyes lit up. “This looks interesting!” 

To be able to beat back four guards despite his grievous injuries, this young man is a force to be reckoned with! 

Upon recovering from their shock, the four guards continued attacking the youth.

Nevertheless, the youth didn’t seem keen to prolong the battle. While fending off the guards’ attacks, he gradually made his way to the fence on the right. 

With less than two meters left, the youth abandoned all his defenses and made a slash with his broken blade. 

Faced with the devastating yet invisible shockwaves fired out from the blade, the four guards retreated with a frantic look on their faces. 

Two of them who had reacted a little slower had their clothes shredded by the impact. 

Fortunately, they managed to escape unscathed. 

The youth somersaulted over the fence before vanishing into the dark night. 

“He has escaped!” 

When Romona whipped out her phone to call for reinforcements, Finnegan stopped her. “Forget it.” 

“He could be someone who knows who I am and wants to hurt me!” 

Finnegan shook his head, then held onto the balcony railing before jumping over it. “He has probably stumbled in by mistake. If he was really targeting you, he wouldn’t have come in such a beaten state.” 

Romona quickly saw the logic behind Finnegan’s words. 

There was no way an injured person would ever attempt to assassinate her. 

“Wait, where are you going?” 

Upon landing steadily on the ground, Finnegan jumped over the fence as he replied, “Home, obviously. Otherwise, I’ll end up being ravaged by you here.” 

Having been teased in front of her own men, Romona snapped, “Finnegan, you b*stard! I’m not done with you yet!” 

Unfortunately, there was no response from Finnegan for he had already disappeared into the night.
