Reborn From Oblivion by Christia Muray

Chapter 757

Officer Baldwin stared in disbelief at No. 13, noticing his bloodshot eyes, as if he'd been crying tears of blood.

"Leave them all here."

Officer Baldwin was caught off guard. He suddenly remembered what Nathalie had said: "If he accepts these gifts, then I'll know for sure he's my brother."

"No. 13, do you know that woman, Ashley?"

No. 13 lifted his eyes, shimmering with unshed tears, but beneath that glossiness, his dark pupils conveyed a strong, intimidating presence. "I have nothing to do with her."

Officer Baldwin recognized that look all too well; it was the fierce protectiveness of a mother guarding her young. He quickly raised his hands to reassure him, "Don't worry, I would never use her."

The tension in No. 13's eyes began to ease.

Officer Baldwin softly murmured, "But she said you're her brother?"

"No," he denied firmly.

Officer Baldwin looked at him. "You saved my daughter; you're a great benefactor to my family. So rest assured, I will consider your feelings."

After a pause, he continued, "Since you've been locked up, only Ashley has kept coming to see you. I can see she's probably the best person to you, the one you care about the most. You're scared of dragging her down, so you don't dare to see her. But have you thought about how she might feel, not knowing how you are?"
