Chapter 128 No Touching Finnegan didnât do anything to Bernice because he knew that she was still a very conservative woman.
He merely pulled Bernice to his side and draped a blanket over their bodies.
Bernice blushed. It was her first time lying next to a man like that. âAre you sure you wonât do anything.
Finnegan?â
Finnegan pinched her cheek. âWill you be angry if I canât hold myself back?â
m it âI will!â Bernice moved Finneganâs hand away and lay in his embrace. âBecause I want to save for our wedding ni If we do it before that, Iâll be disappointed that I canât save the best for that at least until the of our engagement.â
my first Or Silly girl. Finnegan hugged her tightly. âDonât worry. Everything you fantasize about is what I strive for.
Iâll obey your every command!â
âYouâre that obedient? Then⦠can I ask you a few questions?â
Finnegan gently sniffed the fragrance of Berniceâs hair. âAsk away!
Bernice looked up at him. âYou guessed Solomonâs identity a long time ago, didnât you? And you intentionally left Cin behind. I bet you were the one who invited Ms. Wahlstrom, too.â
Shock flashed past Finneganâs eyes.
I didnât expect her to be that smart.
Still, he didnât directly answer her. âAnd?â
Bernice put her hand on his chest. âYouâve known Ms. Wahlstrom for a long time, and you knew that nothing would happen tonight. However, Cin is my best friend, and you knew I was having a difficult time being stuck between you two. So, you attempted to use the opportunity to improve her perception of you so she wouldnât pick on you all the time. After that, you stopped me and told Liam to solve the problem because you wanted Cin to witness his true nature. You knew that Liam couldnât deal with Solomon! Then, when and I were panicking, you stepped forward and asked Ms. Wahlstrom to appear at the right mom You killed three birds with one stone. Am I right?â He dealt with Solomon. panched Liam, and imprd Cindyâs impression of him! Heâs so cunning.
Fegan smiled and tapped Berniceâs nose. âHow did you know that Ms. Wallstrom and I know each other, Darling?â
Bernice frowned and pushed his hand away. âWhen Ms. Wahlstrom was talking to us. I noticed the way she looked at you was different. It didnât seem like she was staring at a stranger. Also, when you said that a dog that couldnât be controlled should be killed, Ms. Wahlstrom was smiling resignedly at you. It was as though she knew there was nothing she could do about you. By piecing all these observations together and the fact that you didnât serin worried that Solomon would retaliate, the only conclusion I can come to is that youâre already friends with Ms. Wahlstrom.â
What a detailed analysis. This has definitely deepened my understanding of her âIs that why you want to stay at a hotel after splitting up with Cindy? Because you want to see if your hypothesis is true?â
Bernice nodded. âThatâs right. Are you going to explain your relationship with Ms. Wahlstrom?â
Finnegan had planned to reveal the truth to Bernice slowly.
Seeing that she had already figured everything out, he saw no reason to keep hiding the facts. Mr.
Wahlstrom.â
Bernice nodded in understanding and didnât ask any further questions because that answer was enough for her.
Still, when she thought about his performance recently, she was a little curious. âWhat did you exper during those five years. Finnegan? Why do I feel like I canât understand you anymore?â
Past events flashed her mind. First, the Miles family had lent Dragon Bayâs No. 1 Villa to Fcgan. They had even gif him a membership card that allowed him to access all businesses under lie banner of Miles Group for tree.
Second, the Haimowitz family had recruited Rhiannon into Pentariver Group before she graduated from university. It was a rare exception. Not only that, they had even made Rhiannon Wynterâs âretary.
Third, Alexander had stood his ground and appointed Finnegan as General Hospitalâs pecial consultant.
Fourth, Jerome had transferred Jerome Medical Clinic to Finnegan and asked the latter to be his master.
Finally, even the head of Walundâs underground, the Wahlstrom family, owed Finnegan a favor.
All that stirred Berniceâs curiosity and made him feel uneasy.
Holding Bernice tight, Finnegan said honestly, âIndeed, Iâm hiding some things from you, Darling.
However, itâs not because I want to, itâs because now isnât the right time. When the time is it, Iâll be sure to tell you everything.â
He was worried if he revealed everything to Bernice, it might bother her.
After all, misfortune might befall her if she knew too much.
Seeing Bernice frown, Finnegan smiled bitterly. âI can tell you a little bit, I guess. No, I Villa in Dragon Bay isnât let me, but itâs a gift from the Miles family. My parents couldnât accept it, so I lied.â
Berre narrowed her eyes. His mother and I thought it was only a temporary loan when chatted about this on the one After all, that place cost at least a billion!
Soon, the calmed back down and wrapped her arms around Finnegan tight! âI understand. You believe that if weâre privy to certain information, itâll only cause everyone trouble and that itâs best to keep everyone in the dark.â
âYouâre so smart, Darling!â
Bernice nodded, her eyes growing misty.
âThen I wonât ask anymore. Iâll wait until youâre willing to share your secrets with me. Butâ¦â Seemingly embarrassed but also angry, she confronted, âI donât think you should be doing that with your hand. You promised not to touch me!â
touchy, she com At some point, Finnegan had stuck his hand into her bathrobe and started touching her private parts.
Finnegan inched closer to her and said, âMy interpretation of no touching is not getting to home base.â
âYou jerk!â
At that moment, it was past midnight.
Solomon received three bags of IV drips and his injuries were bandaged before he exited the hospital.
When he entered a black Bently, he noticed a slender, aloof woman in black attire inside.
He was taken aback her appearance. âAunt Elsa!â
Elsa Zymons was hâs cousin and Solomonâs aunt.
Elsa looked at him and suddenly slapped him, hitting the injury on his head.
Solomon groaned in pain. âWhat did you hit me for?â
âThe confrontation between the Wahlstrom family and the Zymons family is in four d decided to cause a mess at such a crucial moment! Not only that, you messed with se Wahlstrom family. Do you have a loose screw in your head?â
Solomon rapidly composed himself. âSomeone related to the Wahlstrom family? Who?â
âFinnegan Larkin!â
Yet, you une related to the Finneganâs figure flashed past Solomonâs mind. âIsnât he only friends with Zephyr from the Haimowitz family?â
Elsa slapped Solomon again. âHe has relations with the Langdon family, the Wahlson family, the Haimowitz family, and the Miles family! Tyrone personally told me about this after the incident, you fool!â
Solomon frowned. âWhatâs going on?â
Elsa g had at him and told him what she had learned from Tyrone. She even told him about how Alisha ned her on the phone.
nât believe you didnât know what you were doing. Do you think youâre the son of the Wright family?â
Solomon scoffed. âHeâs just a small-time doctor. And here I thought heâs an edible guy!â
âShut your mouth!â Elsa roared. âIn any case, thatâs it for this matter. You need to take responsibility for it.
âI will,â answered Solomon, but he still didnât take his auntâs words seriously ho would go against me for an insignificant doctor?
