Chapter 1897 Witness

Upon hearing that, Joan jolted into action, dashing to Caspian’s car right away.

“Hurry up, Caspian. Why are you still standing there? My son is hurt! We have to hurry!” Joan shrieked.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Joan checked her phone before picking the call up.

“Are you home yet? Is everything alright?” asked Larry in a worried tone.

It was obvious that he didn’t know what had happened in the restaurant.

“Yeah, it’s all good. We just finished our meal, so we are heading home now…”

“How is my son?” asked Joan nervously while staring at the kid in front of her.

Lucius, whose eyes were closed, was lying on the bed with dried blood at the corner of his lips.

When he saw the injured kid, Caspian’s eyes burned with fury.

“Joan, what happened?” asked Caspian with his fists clenched, guilt washing over his heart.

Larry had instructed him to take care of all three of them. Yet, the kid is injured. How the f*ck am I going to explain myself to Larry?

“Your son needs to be transferred to a better hospital. It’d be best if he could do a full body checkup. Mr. Norton sent his men over some time ago, and they gave us some equipment, but our facilities are still limited,” replied the doctor calmly.

Joan’s heart ached when she saw the terrible shape the boy was in.

This is all my fault! Joan knocked herself on the head as hard as she could.

“Calm down, Joan. Let’s take the kid to the hospital,” said Caspian while patting the woman’s shoulder to comfort her.

After Joan nodded in agreement, Caspian picked the kid up and ran to his car.

“Don’t tell Larry about this just yet, Caspian. I know that he is busy with something important lately,” instructed Joan.

“Understood,” replied Caspian while keeping his eyes on the road.

At that moment, dim lighting and soft music filled a café. It was already late into the night, so there weren’t many customers there. Larry sat in a rather noticeable spot inside the café as he waited for the other party’s arrival.
