Chapter 1424 

The next day, the sky was clear. 

By the time John woke up, his room was already basked in sunlight. It must be partially because it took him a while to fall asleep last night. 

Caprice even woke up before him. 

Although she was not rummaging around wildly, she did manage to wake John up with the movements she made, shuffling around on the bed. 

She was dressed in white like an angel and was busy playing nurse, giving her dolls injections one after another. 

John found himself surrounded by her stuffed dolls laid out across the bed. 

Upon noticing John waking up, her eyes shone with brightness. She remarked in an adorably serious voice, ” Wait a moment, Daddy, it will be your turn soon.” 

With that, she took her toy syringe and jabbed it into one of the monkey dolls on the bed. 

John smiled and nodded. “Sure.”
