Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 274

Leaning Into Colin’s embrace, I deliberately brought up my pregnancy again, just to rile Henry up.

Even if Colin wasn’t around, there was still our baby.

“Sir, ma’am.” Eric’s car was parked just beside us, and he opened the door, ushering us in.

I cast a glance at the man standing silently behind Colin. He wore a baseball cap and remained silent but was ever–vigilant, guarding Colin’s back.

“He is…” I whispered as we got into the car.

“Bodyguard.” The man himself answered my question before Colin could.

“His name is Bran. Eric adopted him. He’s in charge of our protection,” Colin whispered back to me.

Bran hummed dismissively, his cap’s bill lowered as he gazed out the car window.

I had this nagging feeling that Bran held some animosity, but I couldn’t tell if it was directed at me or someone else.

I looked at Colin, then at Eric.
