Chapter 110 Finnegan Was Ruthless.
Finnegan was displaying an incredible amount of restraint by not physically confronting his detestable
relatives.
One could hardly blame him for doubting whether it was even worth extending a helping hand to them.
“Finnegan, have you completely forsaken your humanity?”
Melinda couldn’t contain her frustration when she heard Finnegan was preparing to leave. Her
demeanor shifted back to its former shrewish state. “You’re being so petty with your family and even
refuse to save them. Has your conscience truly abandoned you?”
Qahira chimed in, her tone equally incredulous. “That’s right! You ought to have volunteered without us
elders having to plead for you to come. Yet, even when we do, you remain unmoved? You truly are
something else!”
In no time, their ugly side emerged once again.
Finnegan found their behavior both pitiable and laughable.
Who’s the ones lacking in conscience? Who’s truly inhuman?
However, the longer this situation continued, the more repulsive Finnegan found their conduct. “Get out
of the way!”
Melinda held her ground, stepping forward. “What? Are you going to hit me if I don’t? Come on, give it
a try! You’re just a heartless cur who wouldn’t even deign to think of his own family!”
Qahira practically roared at Desmond and his wife, “Didn’t you two promise us earlier? What’s
happening now? Cat got your tongue? Can’t you even handle your own son?”
Desmond and his wife quickly spoke up to try and placate their families.
“Finny, stop throwing a tantrum. We’re all family and have the same blood running through our veins.
Your father and I bear no grudges, and you shouldn’t either. Drop the petty act and go check on Max
and
the others.”
Finnegan was growing frustrated, yet he couldn’t let his temper flare at his parents, who were being
morally strongarmed in this situation.
Thus, he coolly surveyed Melinda and the others, who were staring at him angrily. “Will you move or
not?”
“You arrogant brat!” Adrian stepped forward aggressively, his raised hand poised to strike Finnegan.
“You won’t raise a finger for your own kin in distress, will you? I’ll teach you a lesson you won’t forget!”
Raymond’s tone grew stern. “Indeed. This boy needs a sound thrashing!” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Finnegan’s brows furrowed as he gripped Adrian’s hand. “You keep your distance when you don’t need
me, as if you’d rather avoid any a*sociation with me. Yet, when you’re in need, suddenly we’re family,
huh? Your hypocrisy is truly nauseating!”
With an a*sertive push from Finnegan, Adrian staggered backward.
He lost his footing and landed squarely on his rear.

“Unbelievable! He just laid a hand on his own uncle! He’s going to be punished in hell for this!”
“Look! Everyone, come see this! This guy is hitting his uncle!”
“Melinda, Qahira, don’t shout and make a spectacle of ourselves!”
“Why not? We’ll have everyone witness this heartless cur in action. He won’t even help or cure his own
family!”
In the wake of Adrian’s tumble, Melinda’s screams reverberated through the hallway. Qahira followed
suit, while Quiana failed to stop them no matter what she did.
The commotion attracted a throng of patients, family members, and a multitude of medical personnel
from nearby rooms.
The atmosphere was charged with accusations as the crowd pointed fingers, swayed by Melinda and
the others. “Did you hear? They say he’s a miraclé doctor here who can even cure cancer patients.
However, can you believe he’s so morally bankrupt? How can he show such callous disregard for his
own family?”
Quiana rushed to clarify, “It’s not like that. My son isn’t morally bankrupt.”
Yet, in this era, it often appeared that the loudest voices spoke the truth.
The bystanders embraced Melinda and Qahira’s narrative, with some even joining in to condemn
Finnegan for his apparent heartlessness.
With each pa*sing moment, Finnegan’s countenance grew darker. Melinda and her allies were testing
his patience and pushing him to his limits.
Before long, even Alexander was alerted to the commotion. He approached the scene and asked,
“What’s happening?”
Recognizing him as the hospital’s director, Melinda and Qahira hurried to him to present their
grievances. “Dr. Cooper, you need to dismiss this doctor immediately. He has no sense of medical
ethics. One of his own family members is ill and hospitalized, while another is in a coma from an
accident. Yet, he won’t lift a finger to help them.”
“If you won’t terminate him, then at least make sure he treats my son. If not, we’re prepared to report
your hospital for refusing treatment.”
“That’s right! We’ll expose your hospital, and its reputation will plummet. You will be held responsible.”
Alexander instantly felt a headache forming. He instructed the security personnel to take Melinda and
Qahira aside first.
Then, he approached Finnegan. “Mr. Larkin, can you explain what’s going on?”
Finnegan replied, “Let’s first disperse the crowd. Please clear the area and maintain the hospital’s
order.”
Promptly. Alexander ordered the security personnel to disperse the crowd and shut the office door.
Melinda let out a contemptuous snort. “Dr. Cooper, don’t even think about protecting Finnegan. We will
report both you and this hospital.”
“Melinda, mind your words.” Quiana attempted to defuse the situation. “Finny is a good young man. He
will treat Max.”

Finnegan’s voice was as cold as ice.
Quiana reprimanded him. “Enough! Do you want to be forever branded as heartless?”
“Dr. Cooper!” Finnegan ignored Quiana and turned to Alexander with a grave expression. “A few days
ago, I asked you to help find a compatible bone marrow for Max. You can forget about that now. We’ll
follow the standard procedure. Let him wait until a match is found, and if no match can be found, then
let him. die.”
A profound silence descended upon the room.
Even Alexander, who had witnessed Finnegan force Patrick to kneel, displayed a flicker of emotion.
This level of ruthlessness was staggering.
“Finnegan, you’re a disgrace!” Melinda was the first to regain her voice. She launched into a vehement
tirade. “If you don’t want to help, then so be it. Yet, you want the hospital to stop searching? Are you
even human to stoop this low?”
Quiana stepped toward Finnegan, her voice laced with urgency as she grabbed his hand. “What are
you thinking? Since you’ve already asked Dr. Cooper to arrange for the search, then let him continue!”
Finnegan withdrew his hand from Quiana’s grasp, stepping back. “Their family doesn’t deserve it.”
Then, he retrieved his phone and ignored Adrian and his wife, whom Alexander’s security guards were
barely holding back. It was as if he were deaf to their curses.
He dialed Reynard’s number.
“Rey, please check my Uncle Raymond’s bank account for me. Then, transfer three million nine
hundred and twenty thousand from it to my account! My sister’s car was totaled by their son, and he
also embezzled two million from my father. Thanks in advance!”
Finnegan hung up the phone.
He was going to teach these two families a lesson.”
Qahira sneered, “Finnegan, are you dreaming? Do you think the bank is your family business? How
can you transfer our money away with a single phone call?”
Raymond coldly huffed. “He’s just playing tricks!”
However, not long after, Raymond’s phone chimed with a message notification.
Curious, he checked it before his face turned pale in an instant.
The next moment, he charged at Finnegan like a man possessed. “You heartless cur! What did you
do? Give me back the money!”
Qahira panicked. “What’s going on?”
“That two million has really been transferred, while another one million and nine hundred twenty
thousand that we set aside for Xavier’s house purchase has been taken as well!”
Now Qahira went crazy too. She also tried to charge at Finnegan, screaming. “You ungrateful b*stard!
Give
us back our money!”
However, the security guards present held them back, leaving them to spew venomous insults from
where they stood.
Finnegan remained unfazed. “If you had just behaved yourselves, Max would’ve found a matching
bone marrow donor quickly. I wouldn’t have bothered pursuing the money for the wrecked car as well
as the borrowed funds either Alas. You two are just too disgusting. Dr. Cooper, please have them taken
away. I need to take my parents home
Alexander nodded. “Drag them out.”
Smack
Suddenly, a loud slap echoed, and the office plunged into silence.
Bewildered. Finnegan gazed at Desmond with a pained expression.
“Dad”
