Chapter 325 Awakening
After ensuring that Seraphina really knows about this, Finnegan can directly confirm that it was Seraphina who did it.
He didn't need any evidence at all, as Seraphina's character is the best evidence.
Magnus asked, "Who exactly drugged Ophelia? I bought the milk powder, but I definitely didn't drug it."
"Magnus, I used to think you were just respectful, but now it seems that you are also foolish. Having a friend like you is a burden for Ophe." Finnegan spoke directly as his family was hurt this time. Just a few heavy words already showed a lot of respect for Magnus.
Magnus was speechless, yet puzzled. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of something.
"Is it Seraphina?" Magnus was astonished, "Could it be Seraphina? But it's unlikely. The milk powder can is intact; how could it have been drugged? As Seraphina and Ophelia grew up together, even if she envies Ophelia, she won't harm an unborn child, which is too cruel."
"As a lawyer, haven't you seen the dark side of this world?" Finnegan's tone was heavy. "Magnus, I really doubt your abilities. How can you be so naive? Your weakness and foolishness almost harmed Ophe. Have you forgotten what I told you before? Keep an eye on Seraphina for me."
Finnegan's tone was cold, his expression even grimmer and more terrifying.
He didn't give Magnus a chance to speak at all, pointing at him with suppressed anger. "I've been lenient with you and Seraphina before, for Ophe's sake. If Ophe had drunk that bowl of milk powder, do you know the consequences? Can you bear the responsibility? You and Seraphina are trampling on Ophe's feelings; you don't deserve to be her family or friends."
Finnegan vented all his anger on Magnus, who dared not argue back, as Magnus indeed caused all of this.
Finnegan had warned him, but he still believed Seraphina.
Ophelia had helped him through difficulties time and time again, even directly giving him millions in property, yet he gave her milk powder laced with abortion pills.
Even if he didn't drug it himself, he couldn't escape responsibility.
"I'm going to apologize to Ophelia right now. I'm sorry. It's my fault. I caused all of this." Magnus bowed deeply, full of remorse. "I'm truly sorry."
"My grandmother is in the hospital at her age." Finnegan stepped forward, his gaze cold and sharp on Magnus. "Your apology means nothing, Magnus. Do you really think you're a savior? You shouldn't be a lawyer; you should be a disciple."
Magnus's kindness only enabled wrongdoing, which is very disappointing.
If it weren't for the bond he shared with Ophelia from growing up together, Finnegan would have struck him long ago.
After speaking, Finnegan walked towards the car and opened the door.
Anxious, Magnus asked, "Are you going to find Seraphina? How are you going to deal with Seraphina?"
Finnegan looked coldly at Magnus. "You better take care of yourself."
With that, Finnegan got into the car, started the engine, and drove off.
Self-reproachfully, Magnus slapped himself. "So stupid, beyond foolish."
Finnegan called him stupid, which he felt entirely right; he was indeed foolish.
With his mood already bad, Riley called, "Magnus, I cooked a table full of dishes today. Come over for dinner tonight. Serenity misses you."
"No time." Magnus said coldly, "In a few days, I'll send you all back to your hometown."
Because of what happened to Ophelia, Magnus had decided to send Tobias and the others away. 'He had no abilities at all; how could he be a savior?' He thought.
As he almost harmed Ophelia, he didn't know what trouble they might cause to Ophelia next time if keeping them here.
