Chapter 230 Hold Back

Felix, who was already prepared to transfer the money, frowned.

"Rhiannon, tell us what happened."

Francesca sneered. "Still trying to argue your way out of this?"

As she spoke, she was about to go over and slap Rhiannon a few more times.

Felix blocked her path, his expression already somewhat grim. "Francesca, I advise you not to cause any more trouble, or you will surely regret it."

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't bring up Finnegan's matter, he wanted to tell Francesca just how foolish she truly was.

With a huff, Francesca said, "I just can't stand people who clearly are in the wrong but still look for excuses." A

Ignoring Francesca, Felix asked, "Rhiannon, what exactly happened?"

With tears in her eyes, Rhiannon replied, "When Ms. Chappell brought out the main exhibit, the Eternal Crown, everyone gathered around to see it. I too wanted to see what could possibly be worth eight hundred million. But as I got closer, someone bumped into me from behind, and I stumbled into the display stand. The Eternal Crown fell and broke."

Knowing that Rhiannon would not lie, Felix and Wynter exchanged glances and had an idea of what was going on.

Francesca sneered, "It's normal for it to be crowded back then, and if you got bumped into, it's because you weren't careful. Don't think that this absolves you of any responsibility!"

She paused, then turned to the Haimowitz siblings. "You're not going to use this as an excuse to avoid paying, are you?"

"Of course, we will compensate you," Felix said. "But before we talk about compensation, we need to veri what Rhiannon has said. We can't let Rhiannon shoulder the responsibility alone, can we?"

To prevent Francesca from refusing, Felix added, "Rhiannon is responsible, but so is the person who pushed Rhiannon. Don't you want to find them and settle the score together?"

Francesca had intended to decline, not wanting to waste time.

But hearing Felix say that, she didn't mind anymore. "Whatever. But it better be quick! Even if you do fir that person who bumped into her, what difference does it make? She was the one who crashed into the display stand, and everyone saw it."

Felix couldn't be bothered to respond. He called out to Ross, "Pull up the surveillance footage from the time of the incident."

Ross nodded. "I'm on it!"

But when he turned around, he couldn't help but shiver, finding that the temperature in the hall seeme

to have dropped significantly all of a sudden.

The Haimowitz siblings, along with Francesca and others, instinctively tensed up.

Why has it gotten cold?

Suddenly, Wynter thought of someone. She quickly turned her gaze toward the entrance of the hall, and her face changed instantly. "Finnegan!" Finnegan had arrived.

Seeing Rhiannon kneeling on the ground in such a pitiful state, he became furious.

Recalling the day when bodies were strewn all over the unfinished building at the East Residence, Felix said tremblingly, "Finnegan, this matter-"

"Finn!"

Rhiannon, who didn't even dare to get up when Wynter pulled her, burst into tears in an instant and jumped up to run toward Finnegan.

The two bodyguards from the Chappell family snapped back to reality, swiftly lunging toward Rhiannon.

In the blink of an eye, Finnegan leaped past Rhiannon and stood in front of the two Chappell family bodyguards, extending his hands to grasp theirs. Then, exerting force through his palms, he began to twist their arms bit by bit, molding them into a shape resembling twisted dough.

Two bodyguards from the Chappell family couldn't endure such pain and screamed on the spot.

Francesca couldn't help but stand up, her face, serious. "Who are you? They are my bodyguards!"

It appeared as though Finnegan was oblivious to his surroundings, his grip on the hands of the two bodyguards remaining unyielding.

Crack! Crack!

Two sounds rang out.

The two bodyguards cried out in pain before fainting.

Their arms were forcibly twisted and broken by Finnegan.

Francesca's face turned deathly pale, and she stepped back. "Guards, seize him now!"

"Hold your ground and stop them!"

Fearing that the situation would escalate, Felix quickly made arrangements.

The Haimowitz family's bodyguards and the hotel security sprang into action immediately, blocking the Chappell family's bodyguards who were about to rush forward.

Francesca exclaimed, "Felix, didn't you see what that person did?"

"Francesca, shut up!" Felix said angrily.

He erupted in such a fury that Francesca dared not speak anymore.

Finnegan tossed the two severed arms on the ground, turning around without a hint of emotion. "Rhia."

Rhiannon looked at the two bodyguards who had fainted, then at the two severed arms. Her pretty face turned pale. "Finn?"

"It's okay!" Finnegan stepped in front of her, gently smoothing her hair with his hand. "You're my sister. Anyone who hurts you will pay the price no matter how noble their birth, how high their status, or how great their power!"

The words were simple, yet they gave Rhiannon a profound sense of security.

Unable to contain her feelings of fear and anxiety any longer, she threw herself into Finnegan's arms. "Finn!"

Francesca whispered, "So, he's the older brother of this little rascal."

Felix and Wynter were already on edge with extreme tension.

They were thinking about how to quell Finnegan's anger.

After all, the Goldarch Hotel belonged to the Haimowitz family. If Finnegan were to take action, it would also affect the Haimowitz family.

After calming Rhiannon, Finnegan did not seem angry as he said, "Ms. Haimowitz, could you please take Rhia to freshen up somewhere? I'll figure out how to compensate her." Wynter's face stiffened. "Finnegan?"

Rhiannon also expressed her concern. "Finn, will you be all right?"

"Don't worry. I've got money. I can afford to pay!"

Unaware of the raging anger in Finnegan's heart at this moment, Rhiannon nodded slightly. "All right. Bu it was someone who bumped into me. I didn't do it on purpose!" After a moment's hesitation, Felix said, "Wynter, take Rhiannon downstairs first."

"Try your best to hold back Finnegan," Wynter whispered, then she walked over, took Rhiannon by the hand, and left the hall.

Finnegan's expression turned gloomy once again as soon as they were out of earshot, causing the atmosphere in the entire hall to suddenly tense up.

He turned around, and his gaze fell on Francesca.

Felix's heart skipped a beat as he stepped forward. "Finnegan, I know Francesca was wrong tonight. She shouldn't have laid a hand on Rhiannon. But-" "Shut up!" Finnegan cut him off directly.

Felix's body shuddered, and he shut his mouth with a bitter smile.

Seeing this, Francesca became increasingly uneasy.

What's going on here? Why does Felix seem to be so afraid of this person? He initially asked me to apologize to that b*tch. Was it really for my own good?

At this moment, Finnegan was slowly walking toward her.

The closer he got, the more uneasy Francesca became.

As the distance between them shrunk to just six meters, Francesca's heart pounded. "Get him! Take this kid down first!"

Seven or eight bodyguards from the Chappell family gathered around.

Felix knew he couldn't let them take action. Once they started, there would be no room for retreat.

Quickly, he called out to his bodyguards and the hotel security, "Keep them at bay. Don't let them get anywhere near Mr. Larkin!"

Francesca angrily said, "Felix, are you out of your mind? Why are you helping him?"

Felix said in a deep voice, "I'm helping you by stopping them."

At this moment, Finnegan had already walked up to Francesca.

Francesca, standing at a height of one hundred and seventy-two centimeters, with her five-centimeter heels on, was slightly taller than Finnegan, who was one hundred and seventy-five centimeters tall. Yet, when she faced Finnegan, she felt an intangible pressure.

"What are you doing?"

"Let's discuss the rest later. For now, bring out the thing my sister damaged. I want to see if they're worth eight hundred million!"
