Chapter 315
"Hello, Dad." Ashton looked up at Dexter.
Dexter held Ashton’s hand and gave it a playful shake, and Ashton blinked in return. They were seemingly engaged in a silent conversation.
I looked from Dexter to Ashton, sensing that two were definitely keeping something from me. But it wasn’t the right time to ask now. As such, I could only hold onto Xan while standing behind Dexter.
He had always subconsciously shielded me behind him. It was as if I felt a sense of security when he stood there.
"Sophia, regardless whether Miguel would wake up or not, I’ll do my best to convince that crazy bitch to let all of you go later. Listen to me and don’t hesitate," Dexter reminded me softly.
Clearly, he wasn’t sure if the experiment would succeed as well. There were many factors that would affect the success rate of the experiment.
"Why was mine successful?" I asked.
"Firstly, both parties involved for the reincarnation would have to be on the brink of death. Back then, when the serial killer took you away, he did not kill you immediately but kept you hanging on. That gave me enough time to track and pinpoint the location of your soul." Dexter looked at me.
His gaze was intense and unwavering when he said, "I knew that you were right by my side during that time."
I looked at Dexter in surprise. I had indeed stayed by his side after I died and turned into a soul.
"I couldn’t touch nor see you, but I could feel you," he mumbled.
