Chapter 523 Eyesight Failing
Under Deacon's terms, Ophelia agreed to everything. She didn't care about anything. As long as there were clues about Finnegan, she wouldn't let go. Deacon was the only one who can provide clues now. She was determined to make him tell the truth.
At this moment, Ophelia also felt fortunate to have the strong support of Country F's royal family. Otherwise, she couldn't do all this. She probably even found it a bit difficult to meet Deacon.
Ophelia personally went back to the Abbott family's old mansion to take Oscar to the hospital to see Deacon. Oscar came back last night and sneaked back from the backyard. Oscar had been to the docks, roughly understanding what had happened at the docks, and he also knew that Deacon had been arrested. Deacon was arrested, and he would never be able to compete with Finnegan in the future.
When Oscar felt regretful, he learned that Finnegan was also in trouble. Oscar was overjoyed. As long as Finnegan didn't return, then everything in the Abbott family would be his.
Oscar was daydreaming in his room in the backyard, not even considering that without Finnegan, there was still Ophelia and Warmie. It wasn't Oscar's place to claim anything.
The inheritance of the Abbott family didn't necessarily have to go to a man.
Compared to Oscar, Warmie, the granddaughter of the Abbott family, was more qualified to inherit everything from the Abbott family.
Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door outside. Soon after, the door was broken open with a key.
Oscar sat up from the bed, seeing Ophelia coming in with people. He immediately put on a foolish look again, clutching his hands in fear, looking at Ophelia timidly, shouting, "Uncle Jude, Uncle Jude."
"Oscar, stop pretending." Ophelia didn't bother with Oscar at all. She signaled to the bodyguards she had brought, and they immediately approached, grabbing Oscar and taking him out.
"Let me go, let me go." Oscar was very frightened, not knowing what was happening. 'Finnegan is missing. She should go to find Finnegan. Why bother me?' he thought.
Oscar made a big fuss, and Jude and Celia from the front yard both came over.
"Uncle Jude, Uncle Jude, save me." Oscar continued, pretending to be clueless. "Ophelia is bad. She wants to catch me."
Jude was puzzled and asked Ophelia, "Ophelia, what's going on? Where are you taking Oscar to?"
Ophelia gave Oscar a cold look and said, "All the trouble is caused by Oscar. He has to pay for it. The person who drove and killed Deacon's parents ten years ago was Oscar. That's why Deacon has been secretly against Finnegan. Oscar has been colluding with Deacon in secret. Now, only Deacon knows Finnegan's whereabouts, and Deacon's condition is that of Oscar. I'm taking him to exchange now."
Upon hearing this, Jude and Celia were both shocked and confused. Oscar was also astonished. Only now did he realize that he was the one who killed Deacon's parents ten years ago. So that was why Deacon had always been against Finnegan.
Deacon knew that Oscar had killed his parents, so he must hate him.
"No, I'm not going." Oscar looked to Jude for help. "Uncle Jude, save me."
Celia was the first to react. Her face darkened, and she said, "Oscar, you are an ungrateful person. Stop pretending. You are the troublemaker. Ophelia, take him over and hand him to that Deacon. Let him deal with it as he pleases. We must find Finnegan."
Celia didn't care about the lives or deaths of others. She only cared about Finnegan. Jude naturally chose the former between his son and nephew.
Jude said, "Ophelia, we must find Finnegan. Our family relies on you."
Whether it was Finnegan's previous trouble abroad or the current crisis, both Celia and Jude were at a loss, depending entirely on Ophelia. They were unaware of her sleepless night and how she had fainted in the hospital.
Wilder, as a father, looked at Ophelia like this. He felt sorry for her, and he pressured the police to find Finnegan as soon as possible.
While Ophelia was taking Oscar to the hospital, a luxury car appeared in a village over a hundred miles away from City N. The car drove into the village. The houses were scattered, not clustered, and the distance between them was quite far. The car drove into a small house and stopped in the yard. The person who got out of the vehicle was Niamh.
Niamh took off her glasses, looked around, then walked into the house. She went upstairs, and opened the door to a room. In the room, two doctors in white coats were examining the eyes of a man lying on the bed.
Niamh didn't speak. She stood about four or five meters away from the bed, quietly watching Finnegan lie on it.
After the two doctors finished their examination, they shook their heads at Niamh.
