Chapter 257 The blinding headlights sent my consciousness into a haze.

No. I struggled against the encroaching darkness.

I couldn't bear to lose this child.

“Dexter, don’t touch her....

‘Dexter... She's not Phoebe. Stop it, you're scaring me.” “Phoebe, don’t die, please, don’t leave me.” Dexter's voice was frantic, bordering on madness, as he clung to me, pleading fornot to slip away.

Melody and Stella's voices grew fainter.

“Dexter, you bastard.” Stella’s curses echoed in the distance.

| fought to open my eyes, my awareness slipping further into chaos.

“Save her. Doctor!” “The baby... we're losing the baby...” “Save the child at all costs, we must ensure both mother and child are safe.” | heard Dexter's voice cracking as he begged the doctor to save our unborn baby.

What was he doing? Feeling regret now? What was he thinking? Was it the image of my lifeless body being found by the police? “Please, doctor, save the baby. She’s already lost one; she can’t lose another, | beg you.” Dexter was pleading like a madman for the doctor to saveand the baby.

Melody, through her tears, tried to bring him to reality. “Dexter, when will you wake up? She’s not Phoebe, her nis Foebe. No matter the resemblance, she isn’t Phoebe! Snap out of it!” Dexter ignored Melody.

“Dexter! What was so great about Phoebe, anyway? You know how vile the real Phoebe was... you despised her.” Melody’s tears turned to questions, asking why he had changed so much after Phoebe’s death as if he'd gone mad.

“Dexter, look at yourself. You tried to kill yourself over Phoebe, risked your life for her...” Melody’s voice was tinted with jealousy. “And now, for a woman who just looks like her, you're ready to throw your life away. Dexter! What am | to you?” | could still hear Melody’s cries, questioning Dexter.

Kill himself? Would someone like him really consider suicide for someone like me? Ridiculous.

“That lunatic finally died... ha... finally gone.” Melody seemed delirious with joy, probably upon hearing Colin had fallen off a cliff.

“He’s gone, Carter's gone, the monsters from Double-Genius Orphanage are finally dead. They should've died long ago. Why should they have talents? Why should God favor them? Such geniuses deserve death...

1126 equality only comes when everyone is ordinary, right? “Shut up!” There was a slap - Stella must have had enough and hit Melody “Stella! Do you think Phoebe was skind of saint? You were the only one who treated her like a friend! Back at the orphanage, just because someone liked her red dress and wanted it, guess what she did? She pretended to be an innocent angel and got praise for being sensible and cute, but behind the scenes, thed kill the kitchen chickens, smear their blood on someone, dye their dress red, and then ask with a smile if they liked red dresses, promising to dye it for them every day...

Melody shook as she recounted these horrors as if reliving sterrible memory. “Phoebe was a lunatic, a perfect match for that Colin! They both deserved to die!” “Shut up!” This time, it was Dexter who roared at Melody.

“She’s not...” Dexter was actually defending me. “She was just sick, Dr. Damian said Phoebe was just traumatized as a child. He had a way to make her normal again, to make her forget those bad memories...

Dexter's voice was a whisper.

“If it happened once, it could happen again. | didn’t believe Dr. Damian before, but this time, | make sure she stays by my side. I'll help her forget all the unhappy things, forget everything about that madman. She’ll only rememberand cback to me.” “She’s not Phoebe!” Melody wailed.

And that’s when panic set in fortoo. | tried to struggle, to wake up.

| was scared... scared that my amnesia was linked to that Damian, scared of losing my memory again, of forgetting Colin.

No, | couldn't forget him.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Our Phoebe daring to kill a chicken? That's badass,” Stella retorted to Melody.

“You don’t need to spread lies. I'm telling you, even if Phoebe really did kill a chicken and smear blood, that person had it coming,”
