Who’s the Dog Now? novel Chapter 168

Zebulon had called her many times and, seeing she hadn't answered, had sent a flurry of texts.

[Naomi, what are you playing at now? I just forgot to tell you, that's all. It was something important, why can't you be more understanding?]

[Call me back right now. You don't want your parents to find out you're being two-faced, do you?]

[Naomi, my patience has its limits. If you keep this up, I can't guarantee we can go back to how things were.]

[Naomi!]

His messages grew angrier, full of threats, but the last few suddenly sounded like they were from a different person.

[Okay, I know I was in the wrong today. I'm sorry, Naomi. Please don't ignore me.]

[What do you want to eat tonight? I can buy you your favorite food to make it up to you. Please talk to me, Naomi...]

[Come on, Naomi, don't be mad...]

Naomi stared at the messages, completely baffled.

Had someone stolen Zebulon’s phone?

The last few texts were nothing like something Zebulon would ever say.

But what kind of thief steals a phone and then helps the owner placate his girlfriend?

“What’s wrong? Is your friend coming down?”

Seeing Naomi hadn't made a move, Lennon asked.

Naomi snapped back to reality and quickly sent a message to Patricia.

Patricia was clearly bored, because she replied instantly.

[Ahhh, you're finally back! I was about to die of boredom!]
