Chapter 129 The Revenge Of Solomon.
The early morning sunlight streamed in through the window and shone onto Finneganâs closed eyelids.
He turned away in discomfort and opened his eyes to see a pair of clear, gentle eyes looking at It had to be Bernice.
She nestled in his embrace like a kitten when she saw he had woken up. Wrapping her arms around him. she cooed, âI love you, Finnegan.â
She had been on the verge of giving in last night, but Finnegan had stopped right before breaking though her last line of defe Bernice had comely fallen for him then.
If a man still managed to control himself despite having the woman he loved laid bare right in front of him, that could only mean that he truly loved her and not just her body.
Finnegan hesitated in confusion for a second before smiling. He caressed Berniceâs face early to be flirting, isnât it? Are you ready to go all the way?â
htly. âItâs a bit âYeah. Are you up for it?â Bernice said half-jokingly. She already knew how Finnegan felt about her.
He kissed her gently. âOf course I am. However, I still respect your wish for it to be a proper event, so Iâll wait.â
âReally? I was beginning to stop caring about that I was thinking that I could just give it up now.â
Finneganâs eyes lit up. âReally?â
Bernice giggled as she pushed him away. She pulled the blanket off the bed and wrapped it around herself. âYou already said no. Iâm taking back my offer.â
She cheekily ran into the bathroom after that.
Finner finally sat up and smacked himself on the head a few times. âWho cares about chivalry at this point ow I lost my chance.â
The wo of them went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast after washing up.
Finnegan made Bernice sit down while he went to pick a healthy, filling breakfast for her.
âHow work going, Darling?â
Berniceâs expression darkened when she heard that, but she soon put on a bright smile. âDonât worry about it. Iâll make sure to keep my promise to Grandpa. I want him and everyone else in the Zimmerman family to really accept you.â
Finnegan had caught sight of the change of expression. He said. âThis isnât your burden to bear alone.
If you need any help, just tell me. Iâll be sure to come up with something Bernice reached up playfully pin hed his nose. âHey, your darling isnât as we you think she is, okay? Iâll figure it out, but Iâll tell you if I really canât think of anything Bernice wanted to fight that battle on her own.
Finnegan sighed softly and stayed quiet.
Suddenly, he remembered what Bernice had said and smirked. âDid you just call yourself my darling?
Does that make me your sweetheart?â
Berniceâs face quickly became bright red as she mumbled, âWhat? No, I didnât say that. Hurry up and finish your breakfast. I need to go back to work.â
Finnegan knew she was just shy and chuckled. âDarling, I heard-
His phone sudder rang. It was a call from Jerome.
Finnegan could only pick it up.
âMr. Magnussen.â
âFinnegan, did you do something to get on Solomonâs bad side? You know, Seth Zymon son?â Jerome sounded anxious and serious.
Finneganâs gaze darkened. âWe did get into a small scuffle yesterday. What happened?â
âA lot has happened,â Jerome said bitterly.
He had woken up early that morning and saw that the clinicâs signboard had been smashed. Red paint was splashed all over the door of the clinic and foul words were written all over.
The clinic was about to open the very next day, and Jerome had been so angry at something like that happening a day before the opening that he had been prepared to call the police.
However, he soon heard that the one behind the signboard and paint was Solomon.
Solomon had even announced that Finnegan was to bow to him and allow him to break both of his legs if they wanted Jerome Medical Clinic to open.
If Finan didnât show up, Jerome Medical Clinic would not have a successful opening, Jen e sighed. âHe even said that anyone who spoke up or defended you would become his enemy too.
Wexactly did you do?â
Solomon had definitely gotten his hands on some of Finneganâs information Last night.
Finnegan was surprised that Solomon still wanted to get revenge. The latter was clearly a petty, vindictive person.
Finneganâs eyes gleamed coldly and he replied, âIâll be right there. Iâll tell you in person.â
Bernice noticed his darkened expression after the phone call and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
There was no use in hiding anything from her, so Finnegan told her everything abou how Solomon had smashed dis signboard and vandalized the outside.
Bernice was infuriated. âWho does he think he is? Did he really ignore Ms. Wahlstromâs warnings?â
Finnegan replied, âIf this had happened earlier, he definitely wouldnât have had the guts to disrespect Alisha. However, now that Seth and the Wahlstroms are hostile toward each other, he definitely canât down in front of her.â
âIâve heard about that. What do we do now?â
âDonât worry. I have a plan.â
Liam had also heard about that on the way to work.
His face was still breed like a peach, but he managed to squeeze out a grin. âI was thinking about him a lesson if he it wise up by tomorrow, but it looks like I can keep my hands clean now. Iâ Mr. Zymons can beat up better than I can.â
Axel, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, asked, âMr. Sable, do we wait for Mr. Zymo Finnegan a lesson or do we tell Hailey to keep going with our original plan?â
To teach Liam chuckled oldly. âEverything we have planned cannot be compared to what Mr. Zvons has in store.
Cancel it. Now I donât have to worry about Bernie thinking of me any differently.â
Axel nodded. âAll right.â
However, before Axel made the call, Liam stopped him. âYou can take care of it. Hailey is busy arranging Tristan Groupâs files. We need it for when Tristan Group is being auctioned.â He paused and chuckled coldly. âWeâll cancel our plans, but I donât want to miss such a good show. Keep an eye on them.â
Axel put his phone down. âUnderstood.â
At that same moment, Elsa kicked down a door in a private mansion. She was clad in a tight leather suit, paired with high leather boots.
Solomon had a gorgeous girl in either arm and was having fun with them when she entered. âWho the-
Aunt Elsa!â
Elsaâs exession was stony. âGet out!â
t The girls stayed silent and scurried out without even bothering to put their clothes back on.
So! on feared Elsa.
âWhatâs wrong, Aunt Elsa?â
Coldly, she barked, âDid you ignore everything I said yesterday? Who told you to send people after Finnegan? Alisha just called me!â
âI canât just take this sitting down, Aunt Elsalâ Solomon pointed at his bandageil head. âLook at this!
This s the first time Iâve ever had to suffer like this!â
âEven if you wanted revenge, couldnât you have waited for everything to settle down first?â Elsaâs expression softened slightly, but her tone was still cold as ice.
Solomon could hear his aunt relaxing a little bit âThereâs no room for us to mak ce with the Wahistrom family. Why should we still care about them? If we have the guts to go against them, but not against anyone else affiliated with them, donât you think people are going to call us cowards?â
Eisa fell silent and began to think about what Solomon had just said.
Heâs right. Why do we have to be so afraid?
âDonât go too overboard, okay? Finnegan also has some connections with the Langdon family and others Solomon chuckled. âDonât worry. I know what to do.â
