Chapter 137 Good Doctor
“Ms. Wildman, are you okay? Ms. Wildman!”
Caspian carried Stephanie into the car to take her to the hospital.
Stephanie finally woke up as he reached his car.
“Caspian? Why are you here?”
She had assumed that she was dreaming.
“I saw you lying unconscious on the ground here when I was coming to visit you. What happened? I’m bringing you to the hospital for now!”
She started crying. “Your money… It’s all gone. They took all of it.”
She had wanted to pay for Elias‘ medical expenses with the money.
But it was instead taken away by Tony and his men.
“Tony and his men robbed me! I had kept all your money in a bag, and they took it away after they beat me unconscious.”
Caspian tried to console the sobbing Stephanie. “It’s fine, Ms. Wildman. It’s not worth more than your life!”
“But I can’t always trouble you for money! I wanted to pay for my dad’s medical expenses with the money… But now, it’s gone. Do they actually just want my family to die?”
She felt that she was probably the most unlucky person in the world right now.
Caspian was on the verge of killing all of Tony’s men as he watched Stephanie cry out in despair.
He realized that Tony and his men were beyond salvation. Removing them from existence was more of a public service at this point.
He joined the investigative team under the Office of Inspector General precisely to root out all evil–doers like Tony from Southlake City.
“It’s alright, Ms. Wildman. I’ll get your money back for you.”
He realized that even though Stephanie really needed the money, she wouldn’t accept another huge sum of help from him without feeling guilty about it.
He decided to hunt down Tony and his men to retrieve the money for her.
Stephanie frantically explained, “Don’t be rash, Caspian! They were looking for you in the first place! You’re just running into their trap if you look for them yourself!”

She didn’t want Caspian to endanger himself for her sake, as it would not be wise to deal with Tony’s men and their ruthless beatings alone.
“We need to bring you to the hospital and get your wounds patched up, Ms. Wildman.”
He felt that a local bully like Tony wasn’t worthy of his time and attention. He decided to let Sylvia deal with them.
He remained patient and decided to wait for his elite troops to arrive. With enough manpower and a proper plan, he could round up and eradicate all the men in one go.
Stephanie was still worried sick about the money. “I’m fine, Caspian. We need to report the robbery to the police. We’ll need their help to get our money back.”
“It’s okay. Just leave everything to me. I can help pay for your father’s medical treatment for now as well,” answered Caspian.
He swiftly brought Stephanie to the hospital.
As he entered the building, the nurses began to flock to him and started chattering with each
other.
They still remembered how he had dealt with a criminal in the hospital.
Stephanie was intrigued as to why he was seemingly showered with adoring glances.
She just assumed that it was because he was an attractive and tall young man.
The two of them soon arrived at Elias‘ hospital ward.
Caspian walked in to find Elias completely wrapped up in bandages.
Stephanie greeted her dad as she walked in, saying, “Dad, look, Caspian’s here to visit you.”
Elias was surprised to find Caspian as well.
“Caspian! Why are you here?”
He still remembered the young man who had frequently visited his house for dinner.
“Mr. Wildman, how are your injuries?” asked Caspian.
Elias sighed and explained, “Oh, well. My calf was broken into pieces. I’m not sure if I can ever. stand up again.”
He never expected Stephanie to be fired from the school. Even worse, he wasn’t given a chance to speak up for her daughter before being beaten up and had his leg broken by Tony’s men.
He tried to fight back against his depression for the sake of his wife and daughter.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Wildman. I’ve already invited a great friend of mine to treat your injuries.

“Thank you, Caspian, truly.”

Elias didn’t really care whether or not his friend could cure his injuries. He was just happy that Caspian remained a good friend to his family.
“You’re welcome, Mr. Wildman. I only wish to repay you for your kindness. By the way.
where’s Lana? My doctor friend will also be attending to her once he arrives.”
Stephanie stood up and motioned to guide Caspian to Lana’s room. “She’s also in the hospital. I can bring you over.”
Caspian nodded his head. “Thanks.”
Elias was delighted at the news that Lana, too, might have a chance for a full recovery.
Caspian soon followed Stephanie into a different ward
Lying on the bed was a fine–looking young lady, which Caspian quickly realized was Lana herself.
Next to Lana was a depressed–looking older woman who was her mother, Ruby Norman.
Lana’s father wasn’t around the hospital due to his busy schedule at work
“Ms. Wildman,” Lana enthusiastically greeted Stephanie as they entered the room.
Ruby was surprised by the visit as well “Mu Wildman, it’s good to see you”
Stephanie smiled and replied, “I had just visited my father earlier, so I’m here to visit Lana as well”
She also introduced Caspian to the mother daughter duo
She continued, “Caspian had invited a doctor friend of his to treat Lana’s injuries. We have high hopes for her recovery
Caspian nodded his head in agreement. The military doctor would soon arrive to help out.
Ruby seemed worried “Oh, Mr Lynch, how much does your friend charge for his services
She had already depleted her family’s savings and couldn’t afford to pay for Lana’s surgery. And the most depressing news of all was that not a single doctor in Southlake City had any confidence in curing Lana completely.
Caspian gave a reassuring smile. “Please don’t worry, Mrs. Thomas. The doctor is a good friend and comrade of mine. He won’t require any payment for his services.
He knew it would be unreasonable to charge Ruby for the surgery when she was already
struggling with money.

The services for a military doctor weren’t something an ordinary citizen would’ve been able to afford anyway.
Ruby’s hands trembled with excitement as she tried to hold back her tears.
She was just happy that someone reached out a helping hand for her family in these dire times.
Lana also proudly declared, “If I can stand up studying and becoming a doctor as well!”
“I’m sure you will,” replied Caspian.
Once more, I want to dedicate my life to
He had nothing but absolute confidence in the skills of military doctors. He had seen the doctors in action throughout all the battles he had fought in South Aridlands.
Ruby angrily complained, “That bastard Jeremy… I can’t believe he’s still a free man after all that he’s done to us. Justice no longer exists in this world.”
She had thought long and hard about anything that could help bring justice for Lana and her family. But all her attempts were in vain against the Lincolns.
“Don’t worry, Mrs. Thomas. Karma will soon answer their evil deeds,” answered Caspian.
He would never let Jeremy get away with turning the lives of a young, innocent lady and her family this miserable.
