Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 485

"Subject 77, seems like you're not too fond of the rules around here." He was the kind that held grudges, alright.

But she moved like she was empty inside, a shell of a person, walking up to the doctor.

"Kneel," said the doctor, his voice deep, as if he was trying to assert his dominance in this confined world.

"You're disgusting," I laughed. "People like you probably sit at the bottom of the barrel in the real world, huh? Can't get your way outside, so you seek your thrills in a lab. You know what that makes you? Trash."

My taunt angered him. His face turned cold as he pressed a button on the outside of the isolation unit, his smirk twisting. "I'll show you who's in charge here."

Then, he cranked up the air conditioning...
