Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 307

Dexter's wound had been bandaged, and he walked over to where I stood, gazing into space. "Phoebe, let's go home."

Jolted back to reality, I shook my head. "You go back by yourself."

The murder case was getting more convoluted by the minute.

And Colin - God knows what state he's in, at the mercy of Damian. Being in that mental institution... it's no place for anyone.

"Only I can protect you." Dexter frowned, gripping my wrist. "Don't be stubborn."

"I don't want to go back with you right now." I wrenched my hand away from his.

Going back meant facing Melody, and just the thought of her made my blood boil. I had to figure out a way to attend the charity gala tomorrow. I needed to meet the president of the All-Stars Consortium.

"Did you ask Melody about the president of the All-Stars Consortium?" Dexter threatened, seeing my defiance.

I knew it.

I looked up at him, a sardonic smile playing on my lips. "Oh, trust Melody to be the queen of gossip."
