Chapter 60 Unwilling To Rely On You
As astute as Winston was, he instantaneously fathomed Finnegan’s intention.
He chirped. “Ms. Larkin, I’m truly sorry. After being informed of the circumstances, I dismissed all the
employees involved in this matter. They left not long ago.”
Larry and the others’ subsequent deaths were considered nothing more than an “accident.”
Only then did Rhiannon notice Winston and the others.
She recomposed herself and hurriedly got to her feet. “Good day, Old Mr. Haimowitz!”
The Larkin family was an ordinary household, and she was just a third-year university student. Hence,
Rhiannon had never met with an esteemed figure of society like Winston.
“You’re being too polite, Ms. Larkin.”
Finnegan got up and patted Rhiannon’s shoulder. “Dexter and the others have paid the price. Let’s go.
I’ll figure out a solution for your internship.”
He was actually quite reluctant to let his sister work for others.
However, Rhiannon sounded Winston out, “Old Mr. Haimowitz, in that case, may I continue. my
internship here at Pentariver Group?”
Pentariver Group was one of the top ten corporations in Jadeborough, so it would be highly beneficial
to her career following her graduation in one year if she could work as an intern there.
Finnegan arched his brow and hesitated to speak.
Sensing Finnegan’s silence, Winston was overjoyed. He immediately uttered, “My company’s
employees nearly harmed you, Ms. Larkin. To express my deepest apologies, you’re most certainly
welcome to join Pentariver Group and can even be directly promoted to a full-time. position.”
“Really?”
Rhiannon, an innocent girl, was enraptured.
Winston nodded. “If you’re willing to accept my proffer, I’ll arrange for you to work as my
granddaughter, Wynter’s secretary. What do you think?”
Initially, he wanted Rhiannon to take up the position of Felix’s secretary. However, since Finnegan had
seen through his plan, Winston didn’t dare to suggest the venture.

Barely able to contain her excitement, Rhiannon turned to gaze at Finnegan. “Finn:
He stroked her smooth hair. “Have you made up your mind?”
Rhiannon was no longer a child. If she were truly interested, Finnegan wouldn’t mind. supporting her
decision. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
She bobbed her head. “Pentariver Group is an established corporation. I’m confident working here will
greatly benefit my future career.”
Comprehending his little sister’s sincere wish. Finnegan said, “All right, then. You don’t have any
working experience anyway, so you can learn under Ms. Haimowitz’s tutelage for now.”
Her speech also served as a reminder to members of the Haimowitz family, cueing them to bear in
mind Rhiannon would start working at Pentariver Group for the sole purpose of learning and gaining
exposure.
Winston, a shrewd man, was able to grasp the implicit message. Still, he didn’t mind as long as she
was inclined to join Pentariver Group. “In that case, I shall represent Pentariver Group to welcome you,
Ms. Larkin. You may start work officially tomorrow and directly report duty to Wynter.”
“Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Old Mr. Haimowitz.”
Finnegan didn’t extend his stay and left with Rhiannon shortly after.
Winston inexplicably relaxed following Finnegan and Rhiannon’s departure. He sat down with Wynter’s
a*sistance.
The usually reticent Felix piped up in bafflement, “Grandpa, is this really necessary?”
Pentariver Group’s staff was indeed the culprit of that incident. Still, Felix thought Winston didn’t need
to be so nervous and uneasy around Finnegan.
“What do you know?” Winston glared at his grandson. “Do you think he’s just a capable doctor adept at
fighting?”
Felix replied with a frown, “Perhaps he managed to cure a few people, but do you have to
accommodate him to this extent?”
Winston sighed before answering. “You should learn from your father whenever you’re free.
Appearance can be deceiving. Mr. Larkin is not as simple and superficial as we think. He’s not just a
doctor with exceptional medical skills.” At that point, Winston’s facial expression turned somber, and he
lowered his voice. “He’s also someone with very extensive and powerful connections. You’ll know what
I mean in the future.”
After being informed of Wynter’s inexhaustive investigation, Winston personally hired
someone to inquire secretly into Finnegan’s background.
Although he failed to find out Finnegan’s whereabouts in the past five years, he discovered that aside
from the Haimowitz family, Jadeborough’s Miles and Zimmerman families also youched for Finnegan
when the latter was detained two days ago.
Secondly, a friend of his, working in the government department, told him the wealthiest clan of
Nuthana, the Langdon family, and the most formidable faction of Walund’s underground circles, the
Wahlstrom family, also covertly threw their weights behind Finnegan.
Finnegan’s peerless medical skills and hidden connections rendered Winston unable not to revere
him.
Nevertheless, it still wasn’t the right time for him to divulge that information to Felix and the others.
Naive but not insensible, Rhiannon asked Finnegan curiously on their way to the hotel where their
parents were staying, “Finn, why do I feel that Old Mr. Haimowitz is very courteous toward you?”
He knew she must’ve figured something out, so he didn’t plan on keeping her entirely in the dark. “Old
Mr. Haimowitz was ill, and I treated him previously.”
Rhiannon pouted after hearing that. “Does that mean I was able to be converted into a full- time
employee and become Ms. Haimowitz’s secretary partly because of you?”
Perceiving her disappointment, Finnegan asked with a smile. “Isn’t it a good thing to get to rely on your
elder brother?”
“But I can’t depend on you for the rest of my life, right?”
“If that’s your wish, I don’t mind caring for you for the rest of your life.”
“I don’t want that. Ms. Zimmerman and Ms. Lindsey always told me women are the most charming
when independent. Therefore, I aspire to be like them. I want to grow up to be a self-sufficient woman
who doesn’t need to rely on anyone else!”
Taking in her serious demeanor, Finnegan was glad he didn’t stop her earlier.
Otherwise, Rhiannon would certainly feel upset even though she refrained from expressing her
feelings.
After a brief ponderation, he asked, “Rhia, if I tell you I can afford to take care of you for the rest of your
life and let you indulge in all the luxuries you want even if you don’t work, will you still want to pursue a
career?”

She answered without any hesitation, “What’s the point of living, then? However, if that’s really the
case, you can provide me with capital. I’ll start a business to help you earn money.”
“Hahaha!” Finnegan burst out laughing after hearing her words. He would’ve smacked her head if she
weren’t driving. “No problem. I’ll provide you with capital to establish a new company and let you
become the chairwoman after you acquire the knowledge and skills essential to managing a business.”
“I shall look forward to that. However, I don’t want to be the chairwoman. Instead, I’ll work for you.”

The siblings chatted happily. Unknowingly, they had arrived at the hotel Desmond and Quiana stayed
in.
Rhiannon strode inward while holding Finnegan’s hand, but she seemed a little agitated. “Finn, have
you come up with an explanation for this car?”
A vehicle worth around two million would undoubtedly come as a great shock to Desmond and
Quiana.
“This car is nothing compared to the other more astonishing news I’ll tell you all today.”
Finnegan planned to move his family to No. 1 Villa at Dragon Bay that day since Rhiannon was also
free.
Rhiannon blinked and asked, “Finn, what amazing news is that? Are you in a relationship with a
woman? Let me tell you now. Ms. Lindsey is the only sister-in-law I approve of for now. If I am
dissatisfied with your other partners, I’ll interfere in your relationships.”
Finnegan smacked her head lightly. “What’s so shocking about me finding a girlfriend?”
Rhiannon chuckled. “To our family, that’s a matter of utmost importance now.”
He chirped, “Fine. I’ll bring a girlfriend home to surprise all of you someday.
The two arrived outside Desmond and Quiana’s room on the second floor amidst their conversation.
Rhiannon’s expression abruptly changed. “Mom, what’s wrong?”
