Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 447

"Bro, after all these years, you haven't changed a bit," Matthew said with a chuckle.

It sounded like a casual remark about Colin's unchanged appearance, but it subtly implied that Colin hadn't made any progress in life.

Matthew's sincerity was apparent, but trust was far from being established.

I was unsure what he was trying to convey.

"This recent spree of killings has touched upon many dark secrets behind major corporations. Damian was just a doctor..." Matthew leaned in, his voice low enough for just us three to hear.
