The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

On the other hand, Isabelle was beginning to feel worried deep down as she recalled that John had seen and known Dexter. He must have seen someone who looks exactly like Dexter, or he wouldn’t have called. At the thought of that, Isabelle quickly called Dexter’s school to confirm her suspicion.

Nevertheless, her brother’s teacher appeared to be unaware of the matter. “Dexter said he wasn’t feeling well, so he was permitted to leave the class and rest in the infirmary, but we don’t know where he really went after that.”

The teacher’s reply unnerved Isabelle even more, so she quickly asked the schoolteacher to help find Dexter. After that, she made another call to Dexter, but to no avail, as no one picked up the phone. Soon, she anxiously stood up and left her office in a hurry, running into Old Mr. Bailey in the corridor.

At that time, Old Mr. Bailey happened to be discussing some important matter with his assistant in a solemn manner. When he saw Isabelle in a panic, he knitted his brows and asked, “What’s wrong? Why do you look so panicky?”

Isabelle had no idea why her fingers wouldn’t stop shivering. She then gazed at Old Mr. Bailey and told him her concern. “I can’t reach Dexter. I’m worried about him.”

Nonetheless, Old Mr. Bailey appeared unconcerned about that as he waved his hand. “That little brat is probably hiding somewhere because he is upset or something. He’ll be fine after a while.” After that, he summoned his assistant to his office and walked away, but not before telling Isabelle something. “That spoiled kid needs to learn how to appreciate his good life and stop creating trouble!”
