Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 461

"Don't trust anyone, Phoebe, not a soul around you..." Hannah clutched at my wrist with a frantic grip, her eyes wide with fear and unease. Dexter, with a thunderous frown, glared at Caleb before turning his anxious gaze towards Hannah. "This... This is what you've been too scared to tell me?"

Hiding behind Dexter, Hannah clung to my wrist, refusing to let go. Her eyes were rimmed red, not the eyes of someone lying.

"Dad... he told me to protect you, and I will... I'll protect you," Hannah sobbed, shaking her head, pleading with me to stay away from Colin. "Phoebe, Hannah never told me any of this before. She just said we should get you away from Caleb... I can't believe he's involved with the organization." Dexter's voice was laced with anger and suspicion as he stared down Colin. "Caleb, what the hell do you want with her?"

"Phoebe." Colin pulled me into his embrace, his warning gaze fixed on Dexter and Hannah. "Dexter, back off!"

"Caleb, you're the one who needs to back the hell away!" For the first time hearing all this from Hannah, Dexter, fueled by rage, pushed Caleb aside and pulled me closer. "I won't let you hurt her."

Colin's pale fingers tightened around the umbrella handle, his gaze fixed on me with tense caution.

"Phoebe... don't believe him. I've always felt there was something terrifying about him, like he's unhinged," Dexter said, gripping my wrist tightly. "Come with me..."

"Ah... a madman and a madwoman, isn't that a perfect match?" In the car, Melody sneered, clearly scared of me leaving with Dexter.

She feared that if I went with Dexter, he'd abandon her.

I glanced back at her, offering a deliberate smile. "I've said before, I could go with you, just get rid of her. I don't want to see her around."
