Who’s the Dog Now? novel Chapter 40

“I didn’t even do anything…”

“Why didn’t he believe me…”

Naomi’s voice was a whisper. Lennon, focused on driving, only caught a few words—“Zebulon,” “believe”—and his expression hardened, a flicker of bitterness in his eyes.

So, it was still about Zebulon.

After a few moments of delirious muttering, Naomi fell silent. Lennon said nothing, but the car went even faster.

Fortunately, the hospital was just ahead. Lennon screeched to a halt by the curb, jumped out, and ran around to the passenger side to lift her out. He sprinted towards the entrance, shouting, “Someone’s in shock from blood loss!”

Emergency room staff immediately rushed out to help. Lennon placed Naomi on a gurney and watched as she was wheeled into the ER. Only then did he notice the bloodstains on his clothes.

He stared at the crimson smear, his expression unreadable.

After a long moment, the ringing of his phone pulled him back to reality.

“Speak.”

Without checking the caller ID, Lennon put the phone to his ear, his voice as cold as ice.

The assistant on the other end of the line was taken aback.

“Mr. Spencer? Is something wrong?”

Recognizing his assistant's voice, Lennon’s eyes narrowed. “I need you to look into something for me.”

“Of course, sir. What is it?”

…

Zebulon and his friends partied wildly until four in the morning, completely unconcerned about their classes the next day.

For their crowd, attending class was optional. Anything they could learn at the university, they could learn through other channels.
