Chapter 133
Dexter and the doctor came out together. The doctor was saying a few things to him, and Dexter looked pretty happy. He came over to me and held my hand. "
His fingers were a little cool. His grip made my heart settle in my chest. "Is there something bothering you?"
He could always see through me. I shook my head. "No, I’m fine. Let’s go home."
I was distracted the whole way home. Peter said that he used to be my doctor, and Ewan said that Peter had claimed that Dexter was perfectly fine while I was the one with the problem. What did these things mean?
"Mr. and Mrs. Black, Mr. Martin has organized a family gathering, saying that it’s an annual affair for the Black family. You two have to attend," Ewan said.
Dexter looked impatient. "What a nuisance."
It had occurred to me that Martin would find an opportunity to aggravate Dexter.
After all, Dexter had foiled Martin’s plans too many times, so Martin was probably already suspicious of Dexter.
He suspected that Dexter was only acting like a psycho, so this was the perfect opportunity to test his suspicions out.
"Dexter, when we get home, I don’t want you to go anywhere. Stay with me. You have to call me even if you’re going to the restroom." I held Dexter’s hand, feeling a little worried.
Ewan pulled up at the entrance of the Black family’s residence. As soon as I got out of the car with Dexter’s hand in mine, I saw Juliet, who was standing a distance away.
