Chapter 256 Passing By At the street corner, a thousand people dressed in training attire charged forward, forcefully driving away the pedestrians on the road.
Seeing this, the people of surrounding shops were scared into closing their doors.
In just a momentâs time, the entire street was cordoned off by the disciples of the Martial Arts Alliance.
The expression on Millicentâs face changed in an instant.
She yelled like a mad woman, âLetâs get out of here. Master Farrington is coming!â
Bruce furrowed his eyebrows tightly, a trace of worry visible in his eyes.
Casting a glance at Finnegan, whose warm smile remained unchanged, Bruce steeled himself and said, âEnough said. I mentioned yesterday that I would attend the opening of Finneganâs clinic today.
No matter what happens, I will stick to it.â
He paused before adding, âHe is my grandson-in-law!â
Bernice was moved in an instant.
Tears welled up in her eyes. âGrandpa!â
Millicent shouted angrily, âBruce, you must have lost your mind. Even if Finnegan hadnât offended the Sable family and Master Farrington, heâs still not worthy to be one of the Zimmerman family. Youâve gone mad!â
Bruce stepped forward and slapped her. âMillicent, Iâm still the one who calls the shots in the Zimmerman family. If you continue to boss around here, donât blame me for being rude!â
âBruce, I canât believe you hit me over some lowlife. Iâm going to fight you to the end!â
Seeing that Millicent was about to blow up, Patrick and Jennifer quickly pulled Bruce to the back, while Bishop and the others also pulled Millicent away.
Millicent looked as if she was about to cough up blood in frustration. Queenie turned around and gave Finnegan a cold glare. âWhat a jinx!â
Finnegan simply ignored it, turning his gaze toward the convoy of cars approaching from the street corner.
âFinnegan, is everything okay?â Patrick asked in a whisper, still worried.
Finnegan replied, âMr. Patrick, donât worry. Nothing will happen today.â He paused, then turned to Bruce and added in a low voice, âMr. Patrick, could you please tell Old Mr. Zimmerman that I would like to have a private chat with him later?â
Since Bruce had made the right choice at a crucial moment, he thought he should also discuss some issues with him.
Without giving it much thought, Patrick nodded and went over to comfort his elderly father.

Holding her chest, Millicent gasped for breath. âYouâve all gone mad, completely mad! How dare you oppose the Sable family and Master Farrington!â
A convoy of over ten vehicles had already arrived, lined up in a row.
The car doors then swung open in unison, and the Sable familyâs bodyguards and the Martial Arts Alliance elites emerged.
Following that, Reginald and Mike, accompanied by Hailey got out of the car with gloomy expressions.
From the car next to them, Wilson also stepped out.
After shooting Finnegan a fierce glare, he hurried to the car parked behind. He lifted Seamus, who was in a dazed state, out of the vehicle and placed him in a wheelchair. Only then did he move to the other side to open the car door. âFather, weâve arrived!â
The expressions on the faces of Reginald and Mike, as well as those around them, turned solemn, as they knew that someone important was about to appear.
Oswald, dressed in loose black training clothes, with a robust physique and dominant, sharp features, stepped forward.
He was approaching eighty, yet he displayed minimal indications of aging.
He exuded an intangible pressure as he stood there.
âFather, heâs Finnegan!â
Wilson pointed at Finnegan with hatred.
Mike leaned forward, his voice laced with malice as he chimed in, âMaster Farrington, itâs this brat who turned Mr. Farrington into a fool and crippled Mr. Wilson. He even harmed Liam and the entire Regi Group!â
Oswald did not respond to them as he fixed his eyes on Finnegan.
He then shifted his gaze to the others. âAre you here to celebrate the opening of Jerome Medical Clinic?â
His words were tinted with a hint of anger.
After all, he had given his word last night that whoever came to celebrate the opening of Jerome Medical Clinic would be openly disrespecting him.
Millicentâs legs trembled nervously as she quickly clarified, âMaster Farrington, weâre not here for the grand opening. Weâre just passing by.â
âIf youâre just passing by, then hurry up and scram!â Wilson said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Millicent quickly shouted to Bruce, Letâs go!â
Although Bruce was nervous, he had no intention of leaving. This infuriated Millicent, who turned and ordered his bodyguard, âGo, take him away. If Patrick and his family want to die, let them. Just let them die!â

Wed, 24 +15 Free Coins Chapter 256 Passing By The faces of Bernice, Patrick, and Jennifer changed color. They couldnât believe Millicent could utter such heartless words.
Finnegan, on the other hand, maintained his smile. He was not surprised.
Itâs not like theyâre her own flesh and blood. It would be strange if she actually cared.
However, Finnegan had no intention of speaking out. He wanted to see what Oswald and his group were really up to.
Bruce swept his gaze over the Zimmerman familyâs bodyguards. âDonât think about being a bodyguard for the Zimmerman family in the future if you dare to move.â
After stopping the bodyguards, Bruce cast a disgusted glance at Millicent. âIf you want to leave, then leave. Today, Iâm here to attend the opening of Jerome Medical Clinic.â
âDad!â
âGrandpa!â
Bruce seemed to have made up his mind.. He said angrily, âEnough with the nonsense! If you want to stay, then stay with me and stand with Finnegan. Otherwise, get lost!â
Millicent was shaking with anger. âBruce, this is the path youâve chosen for yourself. Donât expect me to collect your body when youâre dead.â
With a stern look, she turned around and said, âLetâs go!â
She immediately got into the car with Bishopâs family, accompanied only by five or six bodyguards.
They didnât leave, however. They simply retreated beyond the blockade of the Martial Arts Alliance disciples.
A touch of melancholy and bitterness flashed in Bruceâs eyes. He hadnât expected that Millicent and the others would choose to leave.
Bernice walked over with a pained heart and took Bruceâs hand. âGrandpa!â
Bruce managed a smile and said, âIâm fine. I havenât taken good care of your family over the years.
Consider this as my way of making up for it.â
Oswald said coldly, âBruce, weâve been friends for a while. Iâm giving you another chance. Have yo granddaughter break off her engagement with Finnegan, take the Zimmerman family, and leave. I pretend you never showed up today!â
It would be a lie if Bruce said he wasnât nervous when facing Oswald.
âHeâs the grandfather of my wife.â But before he could speak, Finnegan, who had been silently observi stepped forward with a smile. âWhat gives you the right to speak to him like that? And especially in fro of me?â
The entire place fell into immediate silence, with everyoneâs eyes wide open in shock.
Retreating to a distance, Millicent sneered, âThis kid is seeking death!â

Wilson snapped, âKid, youâre used to being arrogant, arenât you? Do you know who my father is?â
âWhat an arrogant brat.â Reginald couldnât help but snart coldly.
Only Oswald remained silent, his eyes narrowed. Those who knew him well understood that this was a sign he was getting angry.
Finnegan, however, seemed nonchalant, his gaze playfully sweeping over Reginald and Mike. âOld Mr.
Sable. Mr. Sable, letâs not discuss whether Iâm arrogant or not. Shouldnât you be focusing on mitigating the crisis caused by Liam that fool? Instead, youâre here finding trouble with me. Arenât you afraid of bringing more bad luck upon yourselves?â
The mention of Liam immediately ignited an even greater fury in Mike. âFinnegan, you think you can get away unscathed with Master Farrington here today?â
Finnegan said disdainfully, âWhat the hell does he think he is?â
