Chapter 244 Reel In The Net
On the outskirts of Jadeborough, an abandoned glasses factory stood in silence.
Several unlit cars approached quietly and came to a stop.
One of the car doors opened. Finnegan, Romona, and Alisha walked out successively.
A dozen or so people emerged from the darkness on one side.
Leading the group were Felix and a girl in a light blue dress, looking exquisite and lovely.
"Finnegan."
Finnegan nodded and turned his
on to the girl in the dress, whom he didn't recognize.

"She's Riley Chappell, Francesca's sister," Felix introduced. "Due to Mr. Chappell's busy schedule, he asked Riley to assist me in investigating the man who disguised himself as a waiter." Riley spoke first, greeting, "Mr. Larkin."
Finnegan responded faintly before turning his gaze to the abandoned glasses factory.
"Here?"
Felix responded, "Through the surveillance at Goldarch Hotel and the surrounding area, along with the joint investigation by the Haimowitz and Chappell families in recent days, we've determined that the person who bumped into Rhiannon is here. Moreover, he hasn't left since that night, except for occasional trips to buy necessities."
Finnegan inquired, "Is he alone?"
"There are also two others who occasionally take turns going out for groceries."
Nodding, Finnegan told Alisha, "Leave one behind."
Alisha understood Finnegan's intention and waved her right hand.
Immediately, four elite members of the Wahlstrom family advanced, agilely crossing the tightly closed large iron gate and disappearing into the night.
Riley narrowed her gaze, looking at Finnegan warily.
Her father, Rueben, had warned her before that Finnegan was a ruthless person.
Felix had also cautioned her that Finnegan was not easy to deal with.
Finnegan remained calm. He turned to Romona and said, "You're from the police department and can't show yourself. You should wait in the car for now." Romona frowned and asked, "Finnegan, you're not planning to kill them all, are you?"
She knew that Alisha had already sent people to capture the student's parents and the deceased's family.

Having heard the screams from inside the factory, Finnegan gave a faint smile. He walked over and kicked the iron door with his leg Clang!
The iron gate crashed to the ground.
Finnegan patted his pants and walked in, saying, "Don't orry, none of them will die tonight. After all, I'm not the type to kill indiscriminately."
Romona felt a bit relieved by his words.
Yet, she overlooked the hidden meaning in Finnegan's words.
"None will die tonight" didn't mean they wouldn't die tomorrow.
Alisha, who was a bit more familiar with Finnegan, heard the underlying message but chose not to alert Romona. She urged Felix and Riley, following the rest into the factory.
Inside the factory, Alisha instructed someone to turn on several high-power flashlights, brightening the space considerably.
Aterrified-looking man in black was being held down by two skilled members of the Wahlstrom family, while two lifeless bodies lay nearby.
Unfazed, Finnegan walked up to the man. A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. "Finally, I've found you!"
This black-clad man is the one who disguised himself as a waiter in the surveillance footage, the one who collided with Rhiannon.
He also recognized Finnegan's face, and his terrified expression instantly turned pale. "Finnegan Larkin!"
The words slipped out, and the man in black seemed to realize he had revealed too much. He quickly changed the subject. "What are you doing?"
However, Finnegan had already heard him.
The smile on his face grew brighter, contrasting his cold demeanor. "It seems that the mastermind isn't targeting Rhia, the Haimowitz family, or the Chappell family. They're targeting me!" Otherwise, the man in black wouldn't have shouted his name upon seeing him.
Felix said, "It doesn't matter. Regardless of who the mastermind is targeting, this act has already offended both the Haimowitz family and the Chappell family!"
Francesca nodded. "That's what my dad said too."
"Excellent!"
Finnegan chuckled.
The next moment, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

With a swift motion, he struck the man in black, who instantly flew backward as if hit by a speeding car, landing seven or eight meters away on the ground.
He rolled over for about five or six meters before coming to a stop. As he tried to sit up, he spat out two mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Finnegan lowered his hand, refraining from continuing the assault. "How much longer until those two families arrive?"
Alisha replied, "They'll be here in a few minutes."
"Then let's wait for them to settle the scores together!"
A few minutes quickly passed, and three vans drove straight into the workshop.
The parents of the student and the four relatives of the deceased were pulled down by the elite members of the Wahlstrom family.
They all looked frightened and uneasy.
The deceased's daughter's legs were already trembling, and she even wet herself.
Upon seeing a crowd at the scene and two people killed by the Wahlstrom family's elites, the six became even more frightened. They trembled as they spoke, "Who are you? Please don't do anything rash, or the police will come after you."
Finnegan walked up to them and said, "I'm glad we've met."
That day, they were in the interrogation room, and Finnegan was in the observation room, so they didn't, recognize Finnegan.
As Finnegan was clearly in charge, the mother of the student nervously begged, "Sir, please don't hurt me. I can do anything you want."
The student's father nodded. "Yes, you can do whatever you want to my wife. Just please, don't harm us."
The four relatives of the deceased also pleaded nervously.
Finnegan frowned, replaceing their attitudes disgusting. "Vixen, introduce them."
Alisha walked forward. "Ladies and gentlemen, the lady and teacher you want to nail in prison are his parents. When you were targeting his parents, did you bother to replace out?"
Upon hearing this, all six of them were taken aback.
After a moment, their previously anxious and uneasy expressions immediately changed. Each one became more arrogant and sarcastic than the next.
"D*mn, so it's the son of that woman. You better let us go, or we'll drag you down with us!"
"Money can't settle this, so you think you can use this method to blackmail us? That's impossible!"
"Hurry up and release us. Otherwise, we'll sue you as well. You'll be jailed for years!"

"My son was almost forced to death by your dad. How dare you lay hands on us? Who gave you the courage?"
Seeing their swift change, Finnegan revealed an amused smile.
He glanced at the man in black who had caught his breath.
With a wave of his hand, he ordered, "Give them all á beating first. But remember, don't hit their faces. They still have some use!"
Alisha had long been displeased with them.
Now that Finnegan had spoken, she immediately signaled the elite members of the Wahlstrom family to rush up and beat them, dragging the man in black along for the beating. For a while, the workshop was filled with cries of pain and pleas.
A few minutes later, only cries for mercy remained. No more curses were heard. "Stop it, don't hit us anymore. If you keep going, someone will die. Stop it!"
Seeing that it was almost enough, Finnegan raised his hand to signal the Wahlstrom family's elites to stop.
"If that's the case, then tell me why you tried to falsely accuse my parents and my sister. If your answer pleases me, you'll get to survive tonight.?"
