Chapter 275 Take Action After leaving the Wright family with a murderous intent, Finnegan made several phone calls in succession.
âDoom Star, Iâm still alive. Stop Bennett from taking action and wait till I get there.â
âVixen, I need you to gather people and seal off the Sable familyâs garden in one hour. No one gets in or out. In forty minutes, cut off all signals!â
âMs. Langdon, please lead your team to Bennett Farmhouse. Check on my sister and the others there.â
The last call was to Hailey. âWhere are you? Go to the Sable familyâs garden immediately and wait outside. Iâll be there within thirty minutes!â
After making these calls, Finnegan hailed a taxi. âLowvalley Residence!â
Twenty minutes later, Finnegan arrived at Lowvalley Residence, where the Sable familyâs garden was located. A As soon as he got out of the car, Doom Star and Bennett emerged from the shadows.
Seeing Finnegan seemingly unharmed, even the usually aloof Doom Star couldnât help but be astonished.
Shock filled Bennettâs face. âHow are you okay?â
At that time, he was nearest to Finnegan and knew well that surviving such injuries would be a challenge.
But now, Finnegan not only survived but seemed uninjured.
It felt somewhat unbelievable.
Finneganâs mind was filled with only killing intent at this moment. He had no desire to explain further.
Regarding the Great Monad Stone, an inexplicable object, Finnegan didnât bother elaborating much.
âIâve been taking medicinal soups to temper my body every day for years. My strength and self-healing abilities are much better than those of an ordinary person. It seemed dangerous at the time, but it didnât actually hurt my heart.â
Upon hearing this, Bennett nodded without much doubt. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why Finnegan was still alive.
He straightened up a bit and earnestly pleaded, âWhen itâs time to deal with the Sable family, let me take the lead!â
Even though he didnât cause any substantial harm to Finnegan tonight, he had, after all, harbored a murderous intent toward Finnegan.
Seeing how Nathan imposed martial law in Jadeborough to capture the sniper for Finnegan, Bennett knew he had to do something or face consequences.
He wasnât afraid of death but worried that his actions might affect Nancy!
Finnegan looked at him. âIt seems you care a lot about Nancy. But can you really do it?â
Although he didnât know how Bennett and Reginald had met or how Bennett owed Reginald a life-
saving favor, once Bennett made a move against the Sable family, it would be a betrayal of the favor.
Bennett tilted his head to look at his bandaged left shoulder and replied, âThis shot has already severed the favor between me and Old Mr. Sable. Besides, Iâll only target the rest of the Sable family, not him or his close relatives!â
Understanding Bennettâs thoughts, Finnegan nodded. âOkay, as long as you donât feel pressured.â
A moment later, Hailey arrived by car.
As soon as she got out of the car, she hurried over to Finnegan.
Seeing him in blood-stained clothes with a cold expression, Hailey instinctively straightened up. âMr.
Larkin, what happened?â
Finnegan briefly informed Hailey, âTonight, Reginald hired someone to kill me. He cunningly arranged both overt and covert attacks, and I was nearly killed. Therefore, I donât plan to give the Sable family any more chances to recover, and I donât care about the consequences of their downfall!â
A Upon hearing this, the astute Hailey immediately knew that the attack Finnegan encountered tonight must have been extremely dangerous.
She didnât press further. âThen what should I do?â
Finnegan sneered, âI heard that besides employing dozens of bodyguards, the Sable family also secretly trained hundreds of elites. Is that right?â
âExactly!â Hailey nodded. âThe ten prominent families in Jadeborough have a tacit understanding over this. After all, there are always some unsavory matters that are not suitable for bodyguards to handle!â
The smirk on Finneganâs face deepened.
He put his arm around Haileyâs shoulder, drawing her close.
As her body stiffened, he whispered in her ear, âWhen I take action, I want to cripple the enemy. Now, go and do a few things for me. I want the Sable family to pose no threat to me after tonight!â
He then shared his plan with Hailey.
Upon hearing this, Hailey turned pale as she nodded. âRest assured, Mr. Larkin, I will not let you down.â
Finnegan let her go. âGo ahead. If everything goes well, youâll be my tea-serving maid after this.â
Upon hearing this, Hailey, who was initially a bit nervous about Finneganâs plan, brightened up and said, âIâll go right away!â
As Hailey drove away, Bennett, who had just heard everything, bore a complex expression. âMr. Larkin, what is your plan?â
Finnegan inclined his head and replied, âDidnât I just say? When I take action, I want to cripple the enemy. And if it werenât for my good luck tonight, I would already be dead. Am I supposed to show mercy and magnanimity to the Sable familyâs underlings?â
O r Bennett was taken aback as he discovered for the first time just how terrifying Finnegan could be.
Is this really just a twenty-three-year-old young man?
Finnegan didnât care how Bennett perceived him. He turned his head and beckoned to Doom Star, âWhereâs Duncan?â
âHe is in pursuit of the sniper!â
âVery well, that sniper must die too!ââ
In the brightly lit villa hall, both Reginald and Mike were still up.
Seeing Hailey walking in, Liam asked, âWhy are you here?â
Reginald glanced at her but quickly averted his gaze, seemingly preoccupied with something else. He seemed anxious.
Approaching, Hailey maintained a natural expression and replied, âI just received some information, so I hurried over to tell you.â
Liam seemed a bit impatient. âWhat can you know that we donât?â
âFinnegan almost died in an assassination attempt tonight at a farmhouse. Angered by this, Old Mr.
Wright mobilized the Military Department and the police department to impose martial law on Jadeborough, conducting a thorough investigation into the killer! After narrowly escaping death, Finnegan also had Alisha mobilize hundreds of elite forces, vowing to find the mastermind behind the scenes and kill anyone without mercy!â
At this point, Hailey added, âI thought youâd definitely be interested in this news, so I came over as soon as I could!â
Upon hearing this, Liam suddenly stood up. His eyes widened in surprise, âFinnegan was alm an assassination? That-â
Before he could finish speaking, Reginald suddenly became agitated. âWhat did you just say? Wright got involved because he was furious about this? Does Finnegan have a relationship with family?â
Hailey said, âThis is the news I just received. It turns out that Finnegan healed Ms. Waylynn Wright was burned five years ago. As a result, the Wright family owes him a favor.â
After a pause, Hailey deliberately asked, âOld Mr. Sable, why do you seem not pleased to hear about Finneganâs assassination attempt? Why are you more concerned about Finnegan having a relationship with the Wright family?â
din Prompted, Liam also realized. âYeah, Dad, why do you seem not happy when you hear about Finneganâs trouble?â
Reginaldâs expression tensed up slightly.
He swept a harsh and inscrutable gaze over Hailey. âLeave now. You can spend the night at the Sable residence. Let me know if anything comes up.â
III r After Hailey left, Reginald gripped his cane tightly and said solemnly, âMike, there are a few things you need to do now to prepare for Finneganâs attack!â
Comprehension dawned on Mike as he demanded, âDad, you didnât arrange the attack on Finnegan tonight, did you?â
At this moment, Reginald no longer concealed it. âIt was me!â
