Daddy the Miracle Medic novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577 Another One Bites the Hook

Upon hearing Lachlan's words, Stephanie and her middle-aged bodyguard were both stunned.

Stephanie furrowed her brow slightly, her expression showing surprise. The middle-aged bodyguard's face immediately turned cold as he snorted, "Don't talk nonsense! How dare you defame Moonlit Monastery? The master of the temple is knowledgeable in astronomy and geography and uses divination to bring good fortune and avoid disaster for the people. You are here spouting lies to deliberately smear their reputation? Hmph!"

This man had been eager to join Moonlit Monastery but upon hearing Lachlan speak ill of it as a crooked path that needed to be destroyed, he became angry.

Lachlan furrowed his brow and chuckled before suggesting to Stephanie a moment later, "Stephanie, since we're both headed for Moonlit Monastery anyway, why not travel together?"

If it were anyone else who was a stranger to him, Lachlan wouldn't bother getting involved. He didn't care if they believed him or not; even if they suffered at the hands of Ghost Plaque Sect or Moonlit Monastery later on because of their ignorance or arrogance towards his warning - it wasn't any concern of his.

But with Stephanie in front of him... Lachlan couldn't help but wonder if there was some connection between her and his mother?

So, he didn't want her to get into trouble.

Looking back, from childhood to adulthood, Lachlan had never heard anything about his mother's family background.

He had never seen his grandparents or any relatives like aunts and uncles.

In short, the people from his mother's side of the family were a blank in Lachlan's memory.

Lachlan had asked his parents why he didn't have grandparents before. When he was young, his parents brushed it off, and when he grew up, they simply told him that his mother, Aliya, was an orphan.

Lachlan never thought much about it, he just felt sorry for his mother and even pitied her.

But today, he saw a young girl who looked similar to his mother and had the same surname, Wynter.

This instantly made Lachlan feel that it was too coincidental!

Because of his longing for his mother, Lachlan felt an indescribable sense of closeness and fondness for Stephanie.

In his mind, various wild speculations couldn't help but emerge.

Upon hearing Lachlan's words, the middle-aged man sneered, "Traveling together? We're here to visit the master. Why would we be traveling together if you're causing trouble?"

Stephanie's face also showed a hint of hesitation, and she smiled apologetically at Lachlan.

She had come to Moonlit Monastery this time to pray for better luck for her family.

This was extremely important to Stephanie, and she didn't want to ruin her important task because of someone she had just met.

What if Lachlan...

"Alright!"

Lachlan shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly.

Theirs intentions were already clear, and he wouldn't force himself into an uncomfortable situation.

Perhaps... it was just a coincidence.

There are too many people in this world who look alike.

After a meal, the atmosphere between Lachlan and Stephanie became somewhat tense, and they didn't say much more.

After finishing his meal, Lachlan left directly without staying.

...

In the middle of Diviner's Peak, there was a somewhat famous temple called Moonlit Monastery.
