Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 376



Everything seemed like it was all preordained.

"Phoebe?" Outside, Colin was already waiting for me.

He held an umbrella over us, shielding me in his embrace.

It was only then I looked up and noticed it had started to rain.

"It's okay now," Colin whispered back.

"You knew I was going to be okay, didn't you?" I looked up at him.

Colin's gaze shifted slightly, shaking his head. "I believed you'd be okay."

His words were ambiguous, and I could interpret them as him dodging the subject.

"Let's go home," Colin said, guiding me back.

On our way home, Colin told me Dexter had woken up.

I responded with a nonchalant "Oh," unbothered by the news.

If he's awake, then so be it. It doesn't really concern me much.

"Melody's been by his side the whole time. Chances are, he'll think Melody is you," Colin seemed to be bracing me for the impact of this news, wanting me to be prepared.
