Chapter 15 Take Him Down By Force Thinking Sasha came to cause trouble for Finnegan because of what happened earlier, Bernice stood in front of the man without thinking twice and said, âSasha, what are you. trying to do now?â
The way she shielded him was the same when Killian came to mess with Finnegan.
All of a sudden, Finnegan was moved by her actions.
Meanwhile, Sasha, who had looked into Finneganâs history, mocked, âBernice, heâs just your savior.
Heâs not your boyfriend. Why are you so agitated?â
Though they were a part of the Four Beauties of Jadeborough, the Miles family was several times more powerful than the Zimmerman family.
Even so, Bernice was always recognized as the top among the Four Beauties of Jadeborough. That was why Sasha resented Bernice.
Hence, it was natural for Sasha to mock Bernice when she saw the latter protecting Finnegan that way.
Annoyed, Bernice snapped, âDonât spout nonsense, Sasha. I just donât want you causing trouble for Finnegan.â
âDonât worry. Finneganâs not worth my time. I just want him to take a look at my dad because Dr.
Cooper says his medical skills are not bad. I wouldnât have bothered to look for him if that was not the case,â said Sasha with disdain.
She then cast Finnegan a condescending gaze and uttered as if she was doing charity, âLetâs go.
Come home with me to have a look at my dad. If you can cure him, our family will give you ten million.
On top of that, weâll resolve the grudge between you and Killian. We can also let your father return to his teaching position.â
That was the decision she made after looking into Finneganâs personal life, and she was sure he would agree to it.
Finnegan would never be a match for the Chomsky family with his average background, even if he had Bernice protecting him.
Bernice turned around to gaze at Finnegan with a glint in her eyes.
If the Miles family was really willing to stand up for Finnegan, the Chomsky family and Killian might not dare to bother Finnegan anymore.
After all, the Miles family was the richest family in Jadeborough, and Gilbert was the |||
president of Jadeboroughâs chamber of commerce. They were more powerful than the Chomsky family, to a certain extent.
Nevertheless, Finnegan said, âIâll take my leave now, Ms. Zimmerman. You should go home and rest early, too.â
With that, Finnegan walked away without glancing at Sasha.
He could not be bothered to entertain someone who behaved so high and mighty when asking for a favor.
When Sasha came to her senses, she yelled, âFinbegan! Stop right there!â
Alas, Finnegan ignored her and continued making his way to the exit.
Sasha hollered, âStop him!â
The four bodyguards of the Miles family ran over and blocked Finneganâs way.
Seeing that, Bernice shouted, âWhat do you want, Sasha? Are you going to force Finnegan to treat Mr.
Miles?â
âI can afford to do that,â Sasha responded. Throwing Finnegan an icy glare, she hissed, âIâm giving you two options. Either you come back with me to treat my father, or my men will drag you home. Youâd better think wisely.â
Sashaâs tone was laced with threat.
Finnegan demanded, âGet out of my way.â
Regardless, the four muscular bodyguards did not budge.
Sasha scoffed, âLooks like youâre choosing the second option.â Subsequently, she shot the bodyguards a look.
Two bodyguards each took a side and charged at Finnegan.
âSasha, tell them to stop now!â yelled Bernice anxiously as she was about to call Patrick to send over some bodyguards.
Just then, Finnegan raised his hands and grabbed the two bodyguardsâ wrists. The bodyguards were unfazed. They prepared to free themselves from his hold and take him down by force, only to discover it was useless no matter how much force they exerted. Finneganâs hands were like pincer pliers restraining their hands.
Not noticing that, Sasha hollered impatiently. âWhat are you guys doing? Hurry up!â

r As soon as she said that, Finnegan pressed his hands downward. The bodyguards suddenly felt that their bodies were heavy, and they fell to their knees with a bang, forming cracks in the ground.
The other two bodyguards quickly grabbed at Finnegan, but before they could even reach him, they felt a stabbing pain in their abdomen. Without wasting any second, Finnegan sent them each flying backward with a kick.
The four bodyguards crashed to the ground and wailed in pain.
Bernice gaped at Finnegan in shock, with her phone still in her hand. She had completely. forgotten about wanting to make the phone call, Never in her wildest dreams did she expect Finnegan to be capable of defeating several well- trained bodyguards.
That was not what Sasha expected as well.
She instinctively took two steps backward when Finnegan shifted his attention to her. However, she quickly regained her confidence as soon as she remembered who she was. âFinnegan, have you considered the consequences of offending my family in Jadeborough? Arenât you afraid something might happen to your parents?â
Finneganâs expression darkened instantly. âShut up, Sasha!â
Threatening Finnegan with his family was practically crossing the line.
He spun around and marched toward Sasha while glowering at her. He could tolerate Sashaâs unruly behavior and even forgive her for offending him, but he could not let her threaten. him using his family.
Sasha felt a chill run down her spine when she met his icy gaze. She could not help but shudder.
âYouâd better not do anything rash, Finnegan. Iâm the daughter of the Miles family.â
However, Finnegan could not care less about her identity.
âStop!â
When Finnegan arrived before Sasha, whose face was pale and drenched in sweat, Kathleen showed up with Trey and dozens of bodyguards. She had tagged along for fear of Sasha messing things up.
Sure enough, Sasha did exactly what Kathleen had predicted.
Seeing her mother was like seeing a ray of hope, Sasha ran to Kathleen, saying, âMom, this bâstard is being ungrateful. Not only-â
|||
Smack!
Kathleen slapped Sasha, which was uncharacteristic of her. âShut up!â
Sasha instantly fell silent with tears welling up in her eyes.
Kathleen glowered at Sasha for a while before approaching Finnegan and apologizing, âSashie has been spoiled by us. Thatâs why she offended you. Please forgive her for being ignorant.â
âWhy should I forgive her? Besides, doesnât she know how to apologize for herself?â
Kathleen was taken aback by Finneganâs reaction, but she did not lose her temper. âSashie, apologize to Mr. Larkin.â
Despite not wanting to give in, Sasha still walked over reluctantly. âIâm sorry.â
âI think youâll sound more sincere if you apologize on your knees.â
His words stunned Bernice and the Miles family, but Bernice felt at ease when she recalled Patrick kneeling before Finnegan.
Kathleen was slightly enraged to hear that. âItâs indeed Sashieâs fault for offending you several times, but isnât it too much to make her kneel?â
Finnegan pointed at Sasha while looking straight at Kathleen, who did not look her age. âIf she kneels, your family can still come to me for medical treatment. But if she doesnât, then youâll never get the chance to seek my help.â
Kathleen was thinking of dismissing the matter just like that since she never expected. Finnegan to be so assertive.
Of course, Kathleen would never let Sasha go on her knees.
Just as Kathleen was about to say something, her phone rang.
