Chapter 210 Joint Inspection The next day, Finnegan got up and had breakfast. After that, under Alishaâs resentful gaze, he hailed a taxi to head toward Jerome Medical Clinic.
After the night before, the noticeably brighter Yuliana saw him and immediately approached him.
âFinnegan, have you had breakfast yet? I can prepare something for you.â
Nearby, Jerome and Casper both widened their eyes. The former was delighted that Yuliana had truly changed. The latter was thinking about whether Finnegan was dating Yuliana.
Finnegan didnât overthink it. âIâve eaten already. You go ahead with your work.â
âAll right, then.â
Yuliana seemed a bit downcast. She nodded and walked away.
âFinnegan.â Casper leaned in, whispering, âWhy does Ms. Magnussen seem much more friendly toward you?â
Upon hearing that, Finnegan realized that Casper had misunderstood.
He lifted his leg and kicked Casper. âStop thinking nonsense. Thereâs nothing going on between me and Yuliana. Howâs your martial arts training going lately?â
Casper laughed heartily. âFine! You didnât need to kick me! Practicing martial arts is going fine for me.
Recently, following your instructions, Iâve made some progress. The power of my punch is now several times stronger than before!â
Finnegan said, âThatâs good, but donât rush things. First, cultivate toward Amber Realm and establish a solid foundation. This way, when you cultivate toward Enigma Realm and start gathering energy, youâll be more stable.â
âI understand. Donât worry.â
Nodding his head, Finnegan was about to enter.
However, Casper seemed to have thought of something and stopped him. âBy the way, did you see Michelle yesterday?â
Finnegan said, âYes. I have.â
Then, he roughly explained what had happened at the entrance of the Caulder residence the day before.
After listening, Casper snorted. âRobert and Derrick truly got what they deserved. Serves them right!
But Michelle is really disgusting. I thought she had turned over a new leaf.â
As it turned out, Michelle called Casper the day before to apologize, seek forgiveness, and hope they could get back together.
Upon hearing Finneganâs words at that moment, Casper understood what Michelle was thinking. This indicates that she recognizes Finneganâs capabilities and wants to reconcile with me, seeking Finneganâs assistance afterward.
Finnegan patted him on the shoulder and said, âAs long as you can see through her intentions and not be fooled, thatâs all that matters. Donât worry about anything else.â
âI wonât be fooled by her again. Itâs just that Josephine-
As soon as Finnegan heard what Casper was about to say, he quickly interrupted him, âIâll go take a look around in the back. You carry on with your work.â
He strode in without giving Casper a chance to speak.
Casper wore a gloomy expression. âThis guy rejecting Josephine, whoâs his childhood sweetheart, makes him a jerk, no?â
Upon reaching the backyard, Finnegan lay down on the rocking chair.
Before long, Stephen called and said, âFinnegan, have you forgotten something again?â
Finnegan snapped back to reality, smacking his forehead with a wry smile. âIâm sorry. I forgot again that I was supposed to treat Ms. Wright.â
âYou really arenât putting your heart into being a doctor. Just give me your address, and Iâll come pick you up!â
âIâm at Jerome Medical Clinic. Come over.â
After ending the call, Finnegan couldnât help but feel a bit awkward. âSeems like next time, Iâll have to take the initiative and go over there myself.â
Afterward, Finnegan simply lay down and waited for Stephen.
âFinnegan, there are many people outside looking for you!â Casper informed.
Before Stephen could arrive, Casper rushed in anxiously. âAt least a hundred people are outside. Have you offended someone again?â
Frowning slightly, Finnegan stood up. âI donât think thereâs anything recently. Letâs go check it out.â
After stepping outside and getting a clear view, Finnegan laughed. âYou guys are used to putting on a show, arenât you?â
Those people werenât troublemakers.
They were the people Jaxon, Zephyr, and Shaun brought along.
Upon seeing Finnegan, the three of them hurriedly approached him. âMr. Larkin, weâre here at your service. As for these people, we knew that Jerome Medical Clinic was being renovated, so we specifically brought this construction team. Consider it a welcome gift!â
Casper, Jerome, and Yuliana were somewhat surprised. What⦠Arenât these people here to look for trouble? Are they really here to help rebuild Jerome Medical Clinic?
Finnegan briefly explained the situation to the trio.
After that, he said to Jaxon, Zephyr, and Shaun, âSince thatâs the case, I wonât stand on ceremony.
Take your people and go help out in the back.â
âAll right!â
The three of them acknowledged and immediately set about delegating tasks to the people they brought with them, instantly bringing a lively buzz to Jerome Medical Clinic.
With a complex expression on his face, Jerome approached Finnegan and asked, âIs this all right?â
One was the heir of the Langdon family, and the other two were the heirs of the Haimowitz and Miles families.
Jerome was afraid they might cause chaos later on.
Finnegan chuckled. âDonât worry. Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldnât dare. Besides, it wasnât me who asked them to come. It was their elders at home who sent them here Seeing that Jerome was still a bit worried, Finnegan explained the situation in detail.
After hearing that, Jerome was completely reassured.
At the same time, he gave Finnegan a thumbs up. âYou are really amazing, Master! If it were anyone else, who could make the heirs of several families behave like this?â
After being praised by Jerome, Finnegan was somewhat embarrassed. âMr. Magnussen, you are too kind âEveryone, stop! I said stop! Who gave you permission to start construction? Show me the documents.â
Suddenly, several cars pulled up at the door. There were vehicles from the Urban Renewal Department, the Environmental Protection Department, and the Commerce and Industry Department.
In an instant, over twenty people blocked the entrance, their presence overwhelming.
Finnegan raised an eyebrow. A joint inspection by multiple departments? What a coincidence.
Jerome was taken aback for a moment before stepping forward. âEveryone, weâve been vandalized recently, and itâs all on record at the police department. They said we could just rebuild it as it was, no need for any permits or anything like that.â
An officer from the Urban Renewal Department interrupted bluntly, âWhat would an officer at the police department know about this? This is our jurisdiction. Any construction work needs to be registered with us. Hurry up and produce the documents. If you donât have them, stop the work immediately!â
âMake way! We need to check if the fire safety, environmental protection, and hygiene standards have been met.â
âBring your business licenses over here, along with any relevant medical qualifications. I need to see them all.â
The rest of the departments chimed in, and some even walked right in as if they were about to conduct a search.
Jaxon and his two companions all moved forward when they heard the commotion.
Seeing those people acting all high and mighty, Jaxon couldnât help but curse angrily, âWhat the hell?
Jerome Medical Clinic was smashed, and it needs to be rebuilt. Why do we need to provide a document? Get lost!â
Shaun was even more straightforward, pushing away the person who wanted to take the business license. âExactly! Youâre creating trouble out of nothing. Didnât you even bother to find out who owns Jerome Medical Clinic?â
Zephyr, craning his neck, warned, âGet lost quickly, or Iâll call your superiors and have you all fired!â
At this moment, all three of them had changed into work clothes and were wearing safety helmets, looking just like workers.
The person who had arrived didnât know them to begin with, and at this moment, he was even less likely to regard them with any importance. âThey dare to resist us, so seize them and seal off the area!â
âD*mn! You dare to lay a hand on me?â Shaun rolled up his sleeves and bellowed, âEveryone, weâve got troublemakers here!â
With a loud roar, the nearly hundred people they brought along started to gather from all directions.
People from several departments were instantly dumbfounded. Where the hell did all these people come from? Wasnât it said that we could easily take down this clinic?
Finnegan uttered at the right moment, âLetâs not resort to violence just yet.â
Approaching closer, he glanced at the leaders of the group. âSo, who sent you all here?â
