Chapter 129 The Revenge Of Solomon.
The early morning sunlight streamed in through the window and shone onto Finnegan’s closed eyelids.
He turned away in discomfort and opened his eyes to see a pair of clear, gentle eyes looking at
It had to be Bernice.
She nestled in his embrace like a kitten when she saw he had woken up. Wrapping her arms around
him. she cooed, “I love you, Finnegan.”
She had been on the verge of giving in last night, but Finnegan had stopped right before breaking
though her last line of defe
Bernice had comely fallen for him then.
If a man still managed to control himself despite having the woman he loved laid bare right in front of
him, that could only mean that he truly loved her and not just her b*dy.
Finnegan hesitated in confusion for a second before smiling. He caressed Bernice’s face early to be
flirting, isn’t it? Are you ready to go all the way?”
htly. “It’s a bit
“Yeah. Are you up for it?” Bernice said half-jokingly. She already knew how Finnegan felt about her.
He k*ssed her gently. “Of course I am. However, I still respect your wish for it to be a proper event, so
I’ll
wait.”
“Really? I was beginning to stop caring about that I was thinking that I could just give it up now.”
Finnegan’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Bernice giggled as she pushed him away. She pulled the blanket off the bed and wrapped it around
herself. “You already said no. I’m taking back my offer.”
She cheekily ran into the bathroom after that.
Finner finally sat up and smacked himself on the head a few times. “Who cares about chivalry at this
point ow I lost my chance.”
The wo of them went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast after washing up.
Finnegan made Bernice sit down while he went to pick a healthy, filling breakfast for her.
“How work going, Darling?”
Bernice’s expression darkened when she heard that, but she soon put on a bright smile. “Don’t worry
about it. I’ll make sure to keep my promise to Grandpa. I want him and everyone else in the
Zimmerman family to really accept you.”
Finnegan had caught sight of the change of expression. He said. “This isn’t your burden to bear alone.
If you need any help, just tell me. I’ll be sure to come up with something

okay? I’ll figure it out, but I’ll tell you if I really can’t think of anything
Bernice wanted to fight that battle on her own.
Finnegan sighed softly and stayed quiet.
Suddenly, he remembered what Bernice had said and smirked. “Did you just call yourself my darling?
Does that make me your sweetheart?”
Bernice’s face quickly became bright red as she mumbled, “What? No, I didn’t say that. Hurry up and
finish your breakfast. I need to go back to work.”
Finnegan knew she was just shy and chuckled. “Darling, I heard-
His phone sudder rang. It was a call from Jerome.
Finnegan could only pick it up.
“Mr. Magnussen.”
“Finnegan, did you do something to get on Solomon’s bad side? You know, Seth Zymon son?” Jerome
sounded anxious and serious.
Finnegan’s gaze darkened. “We did get into a small scuffle yesterday. What happened?”
“A lot has happened,” Jerome said bitterly.
He had woken up early that morning and saw that the clinic’s signboard had been smashed. Red paint
was splashed all over the door of the clinic and foul words were written all over.
The clinic was about to open the very next day, and Jerome had been so angry at something like that
happening a day before the opening that he had been prepared to call the police.
However, he soon heard that the one behind the signboard and paint was Solomon.
Solomon had even announced that Finnegan was to bow to him and allow him to break both of his legs
if they wanted Jerome Medical Clinic to open.
If Finan didn’t show up, Jerome Medical Clinic would not have a successful opening,
Jen e sighed. “He even said that anyone who spoke up or defended you would become his enemy too.
Wexactly did you do?”
Solomon had definitely gotten his hands on some of Finnegan’s information Last night.
Finnegan was surprised that Solomon still wanted to get revenge. The latter was clearly a petty,
vindictive
person.
Finnegan’s eyes gleamed coldly and he replied, “I’ll be right there. I’ll tell you in person.”
Bernice noticed his darkened expression after the phone call and asked, “What’s wrong?”
There was no use in hiding anything from her, so Finnegan told her everything abou how Solomon had
smashed dis signboard and vandalized the outside.
Bernice was infuriated. “Who does he think he is? Did he really ignore Ms. Wahlstrom’s warnings?”
Finnegan replied, “If this had happened earlier, he definitely wouldn’t have had the guts to disrespect
Alisha. However, now that Seth and the Wahlstroms are hostile toward each other, he definitely can’t
down in front of her.”
“I’ve heard about that. What do we do now?”
“Don’t worry. I have a plan.”
Liam had also heard about that on the way to work.
His face was still breed like a peach, but he managed to squeeze out a grin. “I was thinking about him a
lesson if he it wise up by tomorrow, but it looks like I can keep my hands clean now. I’ Mr. Zymons can
beat up better than I can.”
Axel, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, asked, “Mr. Sable, do we wait for Mr. Zymo Finnegan
a lesson or do we tell Hailey to keep going with our original plan?”
To teach
Liam chuckled oldly. “Everything we have planned cannot be compared to what Mr. Zvons has in store.
Cancel it. Now I don’t have to worry about Bernie thinking of me any differently.”
Axel nodded. “All right.”
However, before Axel made the call, Liam stopped him. “You can take care of it. Hailey is busy
arranging Tristan Group’s files. We need it for when Tristan Group is being auctioned.” He paused and
chuckled coldly. “We’ll cancel our plans, but I don’t want to miss such a good show. Keep an eye on
them.”
Axel put his phone down. “Understood.”
At that same moment, Elsa kicked down a door in a private mansion. She was clad in a tight leather NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
suit, paired with high leather boots.
Solomon had a gorgeous girl in either arm and was having fun with them when she entered. “Who the-
Aunt Elsa!”
Elsa’s exession was stony. “Get out!”

The girls stayed silent and scurried out without even bothering to put their clothes back on.
So! on feared Elsa.
“What’s wrong, Aunt Elsa?”
Coldly, she barked, “Did you ignore everything I said yesterday? Who told you to send people after
Finnegan? Alisha just called me!”
“I can’t just take this sitting down, Aunt Elsal” Solomon pointed at his bandageil head. “Look at this!
This s the first time I’ve ever had to suffer like this!”
“Even if you wanted revenge, couldn’t you have waited for everything to settle down first?” Elsa’s
expression softened slightly, but her tone was still cold as ice.
Solomon could hear his aunt relaxing a little bit “There’s no room for us to mak
ce with the
Wahistrom family. Why should we still care about them? If we have the guts to go against them, but not
against anyone else affiliated with them, don’t you think people are going to call us cowards?”
Eisa fell silent and began to think about what Solomon had just said.
He’s right. Why do we have to be so afraid?
“Don’t go too overboard, okay? Finnegan also has some connections with the Langdon family and
others
Solomon chuckled. “Don’t worry. I know what to do.”
