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 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!

Josie stumbled down the stairs, and it woke Mrs. Carroll, Mrs. Carroll put on a coat and
came out of her room. “What’s wrong, Mrs. Russell?”
Before Josie could answer, she opened a drawer and randomly took a pair of ear keys. “I
have to leave now!”
“Now?! It’s too late. I’ll call the driver to come and send you.”
But the driver needed some time to come over. Josie shook her head and quickly walked to
the garage. “I can go alone.”
A dazzling lineup of Dexter’s cars was in the garage, and most had rarely been driven.
Josie looked for the connected car to the car keys she took before driving away from
Mason Garden. Mrs. Carroll’s worried figure became smaller in the rearview mirror.

She lowered the car window and felt the cold breeze to stay awake.
She would no longer be controlled if her father awoke.
The hospital was empty late at night. Josie ran to the hospital room but didn’t dare to
enter when she was at the door. Her heart beat hurriedly, and she stood on tiptoe to look

into the room through the window. At that moment, tubes were still connected to Paul as
he leaned back in his bed and spoke to Matthew.
He seemed to be in a much better mental state.
He was really awake…
Josie opened the hospital room door and looked at the scene in disbelief.
“… Dad.”
The two looked at her when they heard a noise.
Paul sized Josie up, and his eyes were filled with hot tears, which gradually blurred his
vision.
Josie walked forward, and Paul had a smile on his face. “Didn’t Matthew tell you not to
rush?”
She turned a deaf ear and walked to Paul’s side. Her tears fell uncontrollably, and she hit
him gently, She sounded exceedingly grieved. “You slept for so long, old man!”
Paul grabbed her hands and seemed to be in disbelief. “Are you… Jo?”
Josie cried harder. “You can’t even recognize me!”
