A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana)

Chapter 58 A Fate Worse Than Death

“Finn!”

Rhiannon was overwhelmed by a sense of relief the moment she saw Finnegan. With tears in her eyes, she rushed

forward to hug him.

Suppressing his murderous aura, Finnegan comforted her, “You’re safe now. I’ll make sure those who bully you will

pay a heavy price!”

After having her cheeks torn and losing a few teeth from Finnegan’s slap, the terrified Xandra pleaded for mercy.

“Finnegan, Amelia and her brother started this. I have nothing to do with it at all. On top of that, I was set up by

them too. Amelia forced me to spend time with that fatty, Larry, over the weekend. Last Friday at Ark, Dexter was

just acting tough, as he couldn’t afford the bill in reality. Not only did he pawn Amelia’s car, but he also borrowed

eight hundred thousand. from Larry on the condition that he hooks the latter up with a few university girls. Rhia,

please help me persuade your brother!”

Teary-eyed, Rhiannon stared at Xandra in disbelief. “What did

you say?

She had thought that Amelia was sincerely trying to help her and didn’t expect it to be a trap.

At that moment, Larry, blood oozing down his forehead, pushed aside the door that was pinning him down and got

to his feet. “D”mn it, how dare you cause trouble at Pentariver Group? You’re done for, kid. I’m going to kill your

entire family!”

A cold glint flashed across Finnegan’s eyes, triggering a burning rage in them.

Nonetheless, he was mindful of not letting Rhiannon witness the gruesomeness of what was about to occur. “Rhia,

why don’t you wait outside for me?”

“Finn, we’re in Pentariver Group. Why don’t we just let it go?”

”

“Even if we’re in Durbaine, I’ll never forgive those who lay a finger on you!”

Rhiannon was touched by the fury displayed by her brother. “Be careful, Finn.”

The panicking Xandra yelled, “Rhia, take me with you.”

However, Rhiannon gave her a look of disappointment before walking right out.

Grabbing her hair, Finnegan smashed Xandra against the wall. He didn’t hold himself back on the account she was

a woman.

Obviously, there was no way the petite Xandra could survive the impact unscathed.

Having fractured two ribs, she collapsed onto the ground with no energy left to cry out.

Thereafter, the grim-looking Finnegan walked toward Larry. “How dare you take advantage. of my sister!”

Finally stricken by fear, Larry staggered backward.

“Don’t do anything rash. I’m the general manager of Pentariver Group’s sales department, a high-ranking staff.

Also, the Haimowitz family is one of Jadeborough’s ten more prominent families. If you lay a finger on me-

Finnegan didn’t give him an opportunity to continue.

Taking a single step forward, he narrowed the distance between them down to mere inches.

With Finnegan standing in his face, Larry threw a punch at him in panic.

Unfortunately for him, the frosty-looking Finnegan intercepted the punch with his hand. Thereafter, he tightened his

grip while gradually twisting the fist in its grasp.

As an agonizing pain shot through Larry’s arms, his arm was contorted like the braids of a rope. Terror engulfed him

in that very instant. “No, let go of me! Let go of me!”

Nevertheless, with no intention of doing so, Finnegan crushed Larry’s fist with brute force. alone.

The moment the excruciating pain engulfed his entire being, Larry let out an uncontrollable howl.

The cry was so harrowing that Rhiannon, who was already outside, felt a chill down her spine.

Only by quickly covering her ears did she alleviate the fear she felt within.

Even then, Finnegan didn’t stop as he continued to twist Larry’s arm till it was gruesomely

broken.

When the pain overwhelmed his senses, Larry lost consciousness in the end.

In spite of that, Finnegan had no intention of letting up.

He stomped on Larry’s ribs, breaking three of them in the process. The resulting pain jolted. Larry awake, causing

him to cry out in agony a second time.

Thereafter, Finnegan squatted in front of him as if he was an artist about to commence with

his performance. Starting from Larry’s fingers, Finnegan crushed every bone inside Larry. He did so inch by inch,

making sure he didn’t leave out any part.

During the process, Finnegan maintained a delicate balance so that Larry didn’t die on him. Instead, he wanted

Larry to suffer a fate worse than death.

When Xandra, who had managed to catch her breath, witnessed the scene before her, her face lost all color while

her body shook in fear.

If not for the stench in the air, she wouldn’t have realized that she had peed herself.

At the same time, Larry’s screams continued to reverberate throughout the room.

When the anxious Finnegan barged into the building earlier after receiving Rhiannon’s call, he had beaten up more

than ten security guards. Now, tens of bodyguards had arrived, alongside Winston and the others who were

preparing for a shareholders’ meeting.

Furthermore, more than twenty other bodyguards of the Haimowitz family were present.

When they came up the stairs, they could immediately hear the harrowed cries of a man,

Jessica’s expression drastically changed when she recognized the voice. “That’s Mr. Zane’s

scream!”

Winston naturally heard the same. With a grim look on his face, he walked forward with Wynter’s assistance as he

ordered, “Seal all the exits on this floor. I want to see who has the audacity to cause trouble at Pentariver Group in

broad daylight.”

Winston was visibly outraged, unnerving members of the Haimowitz family and the senior management of

Pentariver Group.

All of them secretly offered their “condolences” to the troublemaker.

Rhiannon, who was hiding in the corner, felt her anxiety intensify. As she cast her fear she began to rack her brains

on what to do.

away,

Soon, Winston and his subordinates arrived at the door.

The sight of them brought hope to the terrified Xandra. Enduring the pain, she yelled, “Help!

Save me!”

Larry, in the midst of his despair, cried out weakly, “Old Mr. Haimowitz, help me!”

“Mr. Larkin?”

Winston was stunned the moment he realized Finnegan was the one assaulting Larry.

Cadmus and the other members of the family were equally shocked.

Why is he the troublemaker? What in the world is going on?

However, the questions in their minds were quickly swept away by the cruelty Finnegan displayed.

The sight of Larry’s twisted arm and crushed limbs triggered a bone-chilling fear within. them. Even Winston, who

had supposedly seen it all, turned pale while his hands. subconsciously clenched into fists.

As if he was unaware of their arrival, Finnegan stopped the beating and got to his feet. He looked as if what he did

was just a trivial matter.

Thereafter, he turned around to look at the crowd that had arrived.

In front of them, he stomped on Larry’s groin with all his might, causing a loud squish to echo in the air.

Despite drowning in agony, Larry opened his eyes wide before losing consciousness with a scream. Every single

man present pinched their legs instinctively upon witnessing the scene.

Slapping his hands to clear it of dust, Finnegan finally faced Winston and the others. “Are you going to detain me?”

The first to regain her senses, Jessica exclaimed, “It’s you, that lunatic who faked being rich with the relocation

funds! Old Mr. Haimowitz-

Slap!

Winston slapped her forcefully before she could finish. “Shut your trap!”

Hurrying forward while suppressing the trauma from witnessing Finnegan’s brutality, Winston replied, “Mr. Larkin,

that’s the last thing on our minds. It’s just that what in the world happened here?”

Jessica and the other members of the senior management were shocked. Why does Old Mr. Haimowitz seem intent

on letting him go?

Finnegan answered coldly, “In that case, please summon Dexter of the sales department here along with his sister.”
