Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 446

My breathing deepened, my gaze trembling as I looked at Colin.

Colin's eyes met mine, burning with intensity.

He knew the old Phoebe was devoid of emotions. She didn't know happiness, pain, despair, or what a broken heart felt like...

She didn't even have the instinct to protect herself.

But now, I understood... I was starting to feel.

So no matter what the police said about me, I could remain silent. But the moment Colin was mentioned... I instinctively started to protect myself.

"Phoebe... you've always been wonderful, in every way... don't force yourself," Colin said, wrapping his arms around me tightly, his voice hoarse and shaking.

He knew how hard I had tried... tried to be normal.
