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.

"And who's this? A brother from another mother I wasn't aware of?" I looked up at Colin, my tone far from welcoming.

Colin tightened his grip on my fingers. "An unimportant figure," he dismissed.

My words were clearly unwelcoming towards this unexpected brother.

"The lady seems to have taken a dislike to me," Matthew laughed, extending his hand for a handshake. "I'm not here to stir trouble with the locals. I'm actually looking to collaborate with you."

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

"The Langley Group has been sold off to the All-Stars Consortium, which means members of the Langley family no longer enjoy any benefits from the Group. My brother took a bold move, essentially declaring war on the entire Langley family," Matthew explained, the smile never leaving his face.

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. "And the team behind the Gene-Forge Collective is nothing but pawns for the capitalists. The true evil lies where you can't even touch before you become part of the capital."

I looked up at Matthew, understanding the gravity of his words.

Damian was just another puppet for the capitalists...

To get to the heart of darkness and truth, one needed to become the capital.

That was probably why Colin had decided to return to the Langley fold.

"Brother, I told you three years ago, only by joining forces can we confront everything," Matthew said, looking at Colin. "Sadly, you refused. Over the years, I've been trying to show you my sincerity. You must see that now, right?"

Colin remained silent, his protective stance around me as if guarding something precious.

Seeing the moment to retreat,

Matthew stepped back, still smiling.

"Bro, no need to be so tense. The upper echelons of capital are already infuriated by the killings, and soon.Osomeone will step in to eradicate and resolve everything. The masterminds behind the scenes, thinking they're untouchable, will soon meet their end." NovelDrama.Org

Matthew was referring to the serial killings' mastermind, suggesting...

After a meaningful glance at me, he added, "Truly a masterpiece..."

Then, Matthew turned and walked away.

Chills ran down my spine at his words-masterpiece...

Before 'Phoebe Caldwell' was murdered, the killer had uttered the same phrase, "You're the most perfect work I've ever seen..."

I knew Matthew wasn't the murderer, but his words... carried too many implications.

"Who was that? Way too

handsome..." Stella was still lost in

Matthew's presence and looks "But... doesn't he seem a bit like a villain from the movies?" NovelDrama.Org

"Hmph," Colin huffed, clearly disgruntled.

Seeing Colin's reaction, Stella teased, "Oh, come on, he's not as handsome as Colin, nowhere close."

Colin turned to look at me, seemingly seeking the same reassurance.

Was this really the time for comparing looks?C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Matthew's words hinted at the capital being thoroughly provoked by the serial killings, indicating they were ready to take action.

"You're all set to be discharged today," the doctor announced during his rounds, reviewing my medical records and results.

Wearing his mask, he seemed... too

observant. Maybe it was just my heightened sense of caution, but it

felt like... everyone was wat at it
