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.
Seeing the resentful expression on Romona’s face, however, he knew that no matter what he said, she wouldn’t 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. noveldrama
Even Zachary had to stand in his
presence.
