Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 213

“Foebe, you’re not Phoebe; you just aren’t!” Melody’s cries filled the air.

A nurse hurried over to calm her; sensing trouble, she called for a doctor.

“Foebe, I know Phoebe’s secrets. You don’t believe me, do you? I really do know secrets about her.” Her voice turned hoarse as she suddenly grabbed me, “Watch out for Colin, beware of that lunatic.”

I took a step back, looking at Melody who was in despair, “The Langley family won’t shield you, and I don’t need to hear Phoebe’s secrets from you, Melody. You’ve made your bed; now you must lie in it. No one can save you.”

Melody trembled, collapsing to the floor, “Foebe Larson! You’ll regret this!”

Her hatred for me was palpable, furious that I had made her kneel today yet refused to protect her.

I ignored her. Her hysterical screams continued.

Colin took my hand and led me away. I didn’t look back. I was no saint; her pain should bring me joy.

As I watched Colin’s back, my vision blurred. Melody had said that Phoebe and Colin were lovers, that Phoebe’s heart belonged to Colin, and his to her.
