Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 44

Stella sat on the floor, her gaze fixed on Colin, “Where’s Phoebe?”

Colin tossed the stick he was holding, as if struck by panic, and turned to run, but Robin pinned him against the wall.

“Where do you think you’re going? What are you doing here? Take him in for questioning!”

Robin’s voice boomed with fury.

It was always Colin!

I knew that Robin’s suspicions about Colin had deepened.

I breathed a sigh of relief. That was good. As long as the truth was uncovered quickly, and my body was found…

The cops took Colin away, and Robin carried Stella off.

I allowed myself a moment of relief, staring blankly at the lollipop Colin had dropped on the ground.

It was fruit–flavored.

Colin was caught, and the police interrogated him for twenty–four hours, but he didn’t utter a single word. Without evidence, the police had to release him for the time being.

I sat in the police station lobby, my gaze numb as I watched Colin being escorted away by the Langley family.
