Chapter 424 Checking His Phone
There was nothing to see in his call records. Dexter never named his contact numbers. He had good memories and remembered every phone number he saw. He even remembered whose those numbers were.
Dexter also had WhatsApp, like any modern person. However, he only contacted a few people with it. He mostly used it to respond to his grandfather and Josie’s messages.
Thus, Dexter was old-fashioned in this sense.
Yet, that was what made him endearing.
Josie put down her spoon and checked his WhatsApp. Many people sent him messages, but he did not respond, except for his grandfather. Henry had urged him to return home more often to spend time with Josie.
‘Sure. That was all he replied.
It sounded perfunctory.
Josie glanced through his chat with Henry before opening his conversation with her. He did not name her in his contact. Josie considered briefly and wrote, “Baby Jo.
But she found it cringy and shuddered as soon as she finished naming it.
Once she had enough of looking through his phone, she gathered her things and entered the bathroom. The clothes she brought were all to be worn for going out. She had only brought her sleeping gown to be worn indoors, but Dexter had wrinkled it badly. Thus, she had a mischievous idea of wearing Dexter’s shirt. It extended to the bottom of her thigh and was long enough to cover her.
Dexter had low blood sugar. It was usually difficult for him to wake up once he fell asleep.
Josie sat by the bed and touched his face. He was half awake and buried his face into the white pillows. It made him seem childish and unlike his usual stern and professional self.
Josie looked at him for a long time and loved how harmless he appeared at this moment. After some hesitation, she poked Dexter’s cheek and spoke to him like a child. “Wake up. The sky is getting dark.”
Dexter held her hand but did not open his eyes. His voice was hoarse. “I’m sleepy.”
“It’s time to get up now, even if you’re sleepy.”
He did not move.
