Chapter 114
Joe nced over immediately. He saw Skr helping Caleb to his feet.
“Ms. Sullivan seems to know the guy who fell off the motorcycle,” Paul said.
Joe frowned. His eyes were focused on Caleb, who was all eyes on Skr. “Caleb?”
“Yeah. That really is Mr. Alexander Senior’s grandson, Caleb.” Paul was surprised.
Skr knew who Caleb was. What were the odds?
Joe remained focused on Skr. Her face was pale, probably from the shock of witnessing the
ident.
She usually appeared to be brave, but an ident got her looking pretty shaken up. She was still a
woman with a delicate heart, after all.
“Should I go help Ms. Sullivan and Caleb?” Paul was ready to get out of the car.
Joe saw that there were already plenty of people assisting and felt that he wouldn’t be much of a
help even if he went.
He withdrew his focus from Skr when Paul looked at Joe. “No need. Let’s head to the hospital.”
Paul was then reminded that they were heading to the hospital today.
Gloria insisted that Joe have his regr health checks every two months because of his insomnia.
So, he
would head to the hospital to keep his health in check.
Since his schedule was empty that day, he could take the time to visit the hospital.
At that time, Caleb and Skr were already in the ambnce with the help of passersby. The traffic
police
also towed Caleb’s bike.
Half an hourter, Caleb and Skr arrived at the hospital.
After a thorough check–up, the doctor confirmed that Caleb had fractured his left leg and would
require
surgery.
What made it worse was that he had an old injury on that leg, and this ident just aggravated it.
There
was no avoiding a hospital stay now,
Caleb wasn’t thrilled about being hospitalized. “Is it really that bad? I don’t want to stay here. Can’t I
just
get a cast and go home?”
‘Listen to the doctor. Unless you want to give up on riding bikes?” Skr advised after seeing the
doctor’s annoyed expression.
“Are you the patient’s family? Please pay at the counter first.” The doctor looked at Skr.
Skr nodded. “Alright, I’ll take care of it now.”
Caleb blushed when Skr didn’t deny being his family. Did she just admit being rted to him?
A few minutester, Skr returned to the hospital room.
Caleb was still blushing. “How much was it? I’ll transfer the money to you,”
“Pay me back once you get your sry. You should let your parents know about your surgery so
they cane and take good care of you. It also requires a rtive’s signature,” Skr said,
looking at the receipt.
“My parents can’t make it and my grandpa won’t be able toe either. I could ask Uncle John but
he’s busy.” Caleb’s eyes darted as he concocted a n.
He still hadn’t figured out how to tell Skr about him being Alexander’s grandson. So, he couldn’t
let
Alexandere over.
So, John was his only option. Besides, he could use this situation to his advantage and get some
sympathy from Skr since there were no family members there to take care of him.
Skr sensed that Caleb was hiding something. She remembered that he had dropped out of high
school, which likely meant there were reasons he couldn’t continue his studies.
“Then have your Uncle John sign for the surgery. I’ll bring you food whenever I’m avable. If you
need anything, ask the nurse to contact me,” Skr said.
Caleb’s eyes lit up at the mention of food. Did he finally have the chance to taste Skr’s home–
cooked
meals?
Skr checked the time. “You still have a test result that hasn’te back. It should be out now. I’ll
go
pick it up.”

*Skr, you really are amazing.” Caleb was extremely grateful to her.
