Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142 Something Below

Upon hearing Romeo's words, Eliza's eyes lit up with joy. Harlow, on the other hand, looked frightened and said, "Dad, no... you don't mean it too?"

Romeo's face turned cold as he glared at Harlow and warned him, "Harlow, you better not go around blabbering! If your grandmother dies, it'll be because of Miranda and Willis' scheming! Do you hear me?"

Harlow shuddered before nodding fearfully, "Y-yes... I hear you!"

In the next moment, Romeo took a deep breath before dialing a number.

As the second son of the Lowe family, he naturally had trusted confidants within their clan.

"Rohan. Get rid of Dr. Hughes who saw my mom today! Make sure it's clean!"

After hanging up the phone call, Romeo pondered for a while before saying in a low voice, "We need to find an expert medicine practitioner for this matter - someone who is discreet."

Eliza interjected with an idea, "Oh honey? I heard that Dale Hall from Slocmore came to Edoland recently. He was even practicing at Lifecare Clinic just days ago. Why don't we try contacting him?"

"Dale Hall? Would he do something like this?" asked Romeo skeptically.

"It is said that this renowned doctor is very greedy for money - anything can be done if enough cash is offered," Eliza replied with a cold smirk.

"Alright then... let's give it a try," agreed Romeo with a nod.

His eyes gleamed with anticipation and sharpness as he continued speaking, "For now though... we need to deal with Mason first over these next few days! We'll use Victoria to our advantage by having those skilled family members assigned to Mason work for us instead. Then we'll find an opportunity to completely ruin Mason!"

...

That afternoon Lachlan received Sam's call,

"Mr. Willis, do you have time? Our Reid Group has started construction on one project recently; would you mind coming over and checking out its geomancy?" The young master of Reid Group politely asked.

Actually they already invited another geomancy master but Sam always felt uneasy about something when working on site here.

Remembering Vincent telling him that Lachlan could help if needed; Sam decided to contact him for assistance.

The boy actually listened to his old man's words... The key was Lachlan's method of detecting the curse that night, which made Sam greatly admire and trust him.

Lachlan readily agreed and set off after getting the specific address.

The destination was the new development zone in Edoland's south, where Reid's Group planned to build a shopping mall. The project was contracted to McLaughlin Construction.

The McLaughlin family was also a powerful clan in Edoland. Otherwise, Darwin could not be friends with Liam. Only those with similar background strength could play together.

Especially in Edoland's construction industry, half of the projects were contracted by the McLaughlin family.

Upon arrival at their destination, Sam greeted Lachlan from afar, "Mr. Willis, thank you! I heard this place used to be an unmarked grave site before. I'm not too sure about it and wanted your help."

Lachlan nodded, "No problem at all!"

As he spoke, he used Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique's "Energy Observation" skill to investigate this place's geomancy energy field.

Just then two people walked over quickly.

Leading them was a young man who turned out to be Darwin himself. Beside him stood an elderly man dressed in yellow robes who looked like a wise sage.

"Hmm? Mr. Willis? Mr. Reid, why is he here?"

Darwin saw Lachlan and his face flashed with displeasure.

Although Lachlan indirectly helped the second-generation group by telling them how to break the curse that night, Darwin still held grudges against him.

"I'm not questioning you; I'm just being cautious in case anything goes wrong because even wise men make mistakes sometimes." Lachlan replied calmly.

"Nonsense!" Darwin sneered, "Lachlan, don't think too highly of yourself; compared to Master Soidho you're nothing but an amateur!"

"Master Soidho has been doing this for so many years without ever making any mistakes."

Lachlan chuckled softly but didn't bother arguing with him anymore while Sam's eyes flickered slightly before he yelled out to the workers, "Start digging! Dig from here downwards!"

"What do you mean?"

Upon seeing this scene unfold before his eyes, Master Soido became so angry that his face turned red feeling insulted by their behavior towards him. He snorted coldly then was about to leave while saying, "Mr. Mclaughlin, since you don't believe me then I'll take my leave."

Darwin quickly apologized saying, "Master Sohido, please don't be angry! This is Mr. Reid who runs the Reid Group if I may tell it like it is... this project belongs to them after all."

"He's just a rich young master playing around with an ignorant friend; why bother arguing with them? Let them play if they want."

"I'll double the fee for this consultation, consider it a favor to me," said Darwin. He couldn't afford to offend Master Soidho, whose Mclaughlin's Construction company would be needed for future projects.

But Sam was insistent on digging, leaving Darwin in a difficult position. He had no choice but to use money to appease Master Soidho.

However, he was even more annoyed with Lachlan, who caused trouble.

"Hmph! I hate these young people who pretend to know everything!"

Master Soidho snorted coldly but didn't object when he heard about the extra payment. He walked away calmly and approached Lachlan with a stern expression.

"Kid, if you don't find anything today, you'll have to apologize and compensate me for damaging my reputation!"

Lachlan raised an eyebrow in response. "And what if we do find something?"
