Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 351

I was totally gobsmacked. My jaw practically hit the floor.

I glanced between Zoe and Colin in disbelief.

I froze, thinking I had misheard, and anxiously stared at Zoe. "What did you say?"

My gaze instinctively flicked back to Colin. He remained on edge, as if he had anticipated Zoe's wild claims all along.

He clasped his hands together, explaining calmly, "She's talking about sharing a bed in the literal sense, not what you're thinking."

I was baffled. "Literal sense? What are you talking about?"

"Back at the orphanage, me, Carter, and her often slept in the same bed, but it was just sleeping. That's the literal sense," Colin explained through gritted teeth. "When I'm with you, and we have our baby, that's the other sense."
