Chapter 394 Paul Wakes Up
“Explain what?”
“To tell her, of course, that you initially had an important engagement today, but you left everything behind and rushed over when you found out she was with Mark,” Moses said emotionally. “Even I can tell that you lost a lot tonight.”
With the project, Arnold could spontaneously recover since Dexter had abandoned it. It was a massive loss
to Dexter.
But what did it matter? Dexter massaged his temples. “She won’t care. She will think that I deserve it.”
Moses couldn’t help but smile. “Actually, you love her a lot, right?”
“Love?” Dexter thought about it.
He didn’t stay in Mason Garden tonight, so Josie slept on the big, empty bed. She awoke in the middle of the night and reached out beside her, but it was cold. She sighed deeply in the night. At this time, her cell phone on the bedside table rang.
She was startled, and she looked at the caller ID. She was astonished that it was Matthew. She sat up, and her heart clenched tightly. “Matt.”
She heard hurried gasps on the other end. Matthew couldn’t say anything for a while because he was so emotional.
With one hand on her chest, Josie waited until she heard him say, “Your father is awake.”
In an instant, her body burned up. She wanted to say something but couldn’t say a word. She raised her head, and tears fell on her cheeks. The four long years of waiting had been worth it.
She took a deep breath. “I’ll come right away.”
When she got out of bed, she realized her legs felt weak. She fell into a sitting position on the floor. She envied Summer for having a supportive father when she saw Mark yesterday. Her father was still lying in the hospital, where his survival was unknown. She had felt a substantial disparity.
But things were different now. Josie’s father had awoken… Her father was back!
