Chapter 198 What a Coincidence
Robert’s and his son’s affair was like a minor issue to Finnegan. He didn’t take it to heart and believed that William would handle it well.
Finnegan was certain William would make Robert and his son regret!
“Finny, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I didn’t prepare a birthday gift for Old Mr. Caulder.” Desmond also learned about the situation from Finnegan and couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful.
From his youth, he regarded Soren as his idol in his teaching journey.
Even though it was his idol’s birthday, he didn’t prepare a gift.
With a smile, William took over the conversation. “Desmond, Mr. Larkin saved my father’s life, which is more precious than anything else. Even if you haven’t prepared any gifts like everyone else, you are still the most honored guest in our family.”
“Dad, I’ve prepared the gift,” Finnegan reassured his father with a smile.
He then asked, “Mr. Caulder, where are we going?”
William replied, “The birthday banquet doesn’t start until noon. My old man said to take you to his place to sit for a while once you arrive.”
Upon hearing that, Finnegan nodded. He, too, didn’t feel like going to the crowded front yard at the
moment.
Soon, the three of them arrived at Soren’s residence.
As soon as they walked in, a man suddenly jumped out, looking at Finnegan with a face full of anger. “It’s you, brat!”
It was indeed the young man who attempted to take advantage of Lindsey last night.
William frowned, “Keaton, what are you doing?”
Finnegan naturally recognized Keaton, too. With a teasing smirk, he said, “What a coincidence!”
“Mr. Larkin, do you know each other?” William asked.
Finnegan replied, “I’ve seen him, but I don’t know him!”
Keaton’s momentum weakened in an instant as he thought about what happened last night. Of course, he couldn’t reveal how he knew Finnegan. “Who is he?”
“Come, let me introduce you.” Soren didn’t think much and stood up with his cane. “This is Finnegan Larkin, the miraculous doctor who brought me back to life. If it weren’t for him, you would be attending my funeral today.”
When Keaton heard that, his expression shifted, a hint of reluctance flickering in his

eyes.
However, since Finnegan was the savior of Soren, he couldn’t be too brazen.
Soren turned to Finnegan and introduced the people beside him, “Finn, this is my eldest son, Jeremiah, who is currently investing in an education group in Jipidale. Next to him is my eldest granddaughter,
Myla, who is managing the company with her father. This is Keaton. His father was my student and is currently the commissioner of the Department of Education in Jipsdale. However, Keaton isn’t fond of education and invested in some media company.”
Jeremiah, who appeared to be quite old-fashioned, nodded at Finnegan. “Thank you for saving my father.”
Myla seemed a bit aloof, only giving a slight nod in acknowledgment.
On the contrary, Keaton was very enthusiastic. He stepped forward with a smile and offered his hand, “So it was you who saved my Old Mr. Caulder. I really can’t thank you enough.”
Finnegan completely ignored Keaton and said to Soren, “Old Mr. Caulder, this is my father, Desmond. He has admired you since his youth and always told me that you are one of the cornerstones of Loang’s education!”
Keaton was obviously upset that he was ignored and forcibly hid the dark look in his eyes.
