Chapter 175 Three Small Matters
Seeing Romona’s rare persistence, Finnegan simply couldn’t resist. He had no choice but to bring her to Nathan’s
small courtyard.
Throughout the journey, not a single servant or guard could be seen.
Finnegan raised an eyebrow. “Why don’t I see anyone in the Wright residence today?”
It seemed as if Romona was worried that Finnegan would run away. She tightly held onto his arm and replied,
“Everyone has retreated to their rooms, and they’ve been instructed not to leave without permission.”
After a pause, she added, “It seems that my granddad doesn’t want anyone to see your master. So, who exactly is
your master?”
Finnegan furrowed his brows. “I don’t know either!”
Although he had taken Sawyer as his master, they had only spent a year together.
Aside from knowing some of Sawyer’s connections, and the fact that he was referred to as the Eternal Medicine
God, he wasn’t too familiar with any other details about him.
Romona didn’t believe him and glared at him. “You’re just like my granddad and the rest. How annoying!”
It’s either they say they don’t know, or it’s unspeakable.
Finnegan wanted to say that he truly didn’t know.

believe him. He simply dismissed the idea of explaining.
Soon, they arrived at Nathan’s courtyard.
Apart from Sawyer, both Nathan and Stephen were present.
Additionally, there was a dignified elderly man with a smile on his face.
Romona blinked, puzzled. “Grandpa, when did you get here?”
The dignified elder was none other than Romona’s grandfather, the patriarch of the Quickwood family, one of the
Five Great Families, Zachary Quickwood.
Zachary turned his head.
When he saw Romona clinging to Finnegan’s arm, his eyes lit up slightly. “Romona, are you in a relationship?”
Only then did Romona react, quickly explaining, “No, I don’t fancy Finnegan at all. It’s just that Granddad wouldn’t
let me go out last night, so I asked Finnegan to take me out.”
“Oh… then why are you still holding on to him so tightly?’
Zachary gave a smile full of profound meaning.
Romona’s face turned beet red as she released Finnegan. “Grandpa!”
Being teased in front of so many people was truly embarrassing.
With a smile, Zachary turned to look at Finnegan. “Not bad!”
The man was Zachary, after all. Finnegan naturally couldn’t take him lightly.
He nodded slightly in response. “Old Mr. Quickwood.”
His curiosity about the identity of Sawyer grew increasingly.
Even Zachary had to stand in his
presence.
Sawyer smiled and said, “Zac, Nate, you two go ahead. I have something to discuss with Finnegan.”
They nodded, pulling Romona, who wanted to stay, away from the small courtyard.
With no one else around, Finnegan casually walked over and sat down, crossing his legs. “You old geezer he said, “I
used to think you were all talk but turns out you really are as impressive as you claim. Even Ol Mr. Quickwood
seems like an elementary school student in front of you. So, are you going to share some of your glorious
achievements with me? Everyone knows about it, but I’m the only one who doesn’t, and I’m your disciple. How
frustrating is that?”
Sawyer looked Finnegan up and down, laughing. “Not bad. You’ve recovered about sixty to seventy percent

ability. As for my glorious achievements, I’ve even forgotten them myself. All I remember i that during those
toughest times, I had once lent a helping hand to their grandparents and parents. When foreign powers united in an

forgotten them!”
Finnegan’s lips twitched.
He knew his mentor was impressive, but he didn’t realize just how impressive he was.
However, his attitude left him speechless. “You old geezer, you call that forgetting? I suspect I’ve been played by
you again.”
Sawyer laughed heartily. “At my age, that’s the only hobby I can have. Don’t expose me!”
“Then tell me, how awesome are you? I’m giving you a chance to show off properly!”
Sawyer chuckled as he rapped Finnegan’s head. “You clearly want to know about my past, yet you pretend to play
along with my antics. You’re becoming more and more cunning.”
Finnegan pursed his lips. “Since you’ve guessed it, why don’t you spit it out already?”
The smile on Sawyer’s face faded as he said, “My past is not worth mentioning. In the hearts of many, I have been
dead for decades.
“Four years ago when you left, you said you’d come to find me and discuss something once I left the mountain. Can
we talk about it now?”
Sawyer stood up, his hands clasped behind his back as he looked into the distance.
