The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 132 Don’t Be Impulsive

“Who’s Tony Brooks, Ms. Wildman?” asked Caspian.

Stephanie continued panicking. “He’s the local bully around these areas. I forgot to mention that the men you beat up earlier were also his men. I’m sure they’re now coming to you for revenge! We gotta find a way to get rid of them!”

“Relax, Ms. Wildman. I’ll think of something.”

“Stop pretending to sound tough already! They’re ruthless hooligans! You can’t possibly deal with so many of them with just the two of you!”

Caspian was at a loss for words.

He never once tried to sound tough. He had already eradicated the entirety of the Flying Dragons. These mere hooligans on the street were nothing before him.

However, he realized that Stephanie was genuinely scared of them.

He turned to Sylvia, saying, “Try to lose them, Sylvia.”

“Of course. Ms. Wildman, hold on tight!” replied Sylvia as she stepped on the gas.

Within less than a minute, they had successfully escaped from Tony’s men.

Stephanie was finally at ease as she checked the rearview mirror to confirm they were safe.

“Stop the car at the mall, Sylvia,” ordered Caspian.

Stephanie started panicking again as she was worried that the thugs might catch up. “What are we doing here at the mall? They might chase up to us any minute now!”

“I wanted to get some gifts for your parents, of course. Relax, they won’t be able to catch up to us.”

Caspian felt it would be inconsiderate of him if he visited Stephanie’s house with an empty.

hand.

He had often visited the Wildman residence back when he was still in high school, as Stephanie would invite him over for dinner.

As a result, Stephanie’s parents also treated him as one of their own. Caspian now wanted to take the opportunity to pay her parents a visit.

He got out of the car and purchased some generic health supplements for seniors as a gift.

He was worried that her parents might refuse the gift if he had chosen the premium supplements instead.
