Chapter 416 Chapter 416 Dexter's face turned even darker, and with a deep breath, he gritted his teeth and said, "Marriage can be ended, you know." "I'm not leaving," Colin shot back at Dexter.
"Caleb!" Dexter looked like he was about to throw a punch.
With an innocent look, Colin hid behind me. "Phoebe, he's so scary. Just now, downstairs, he looked like he wanted to kill me." I frowned, sending a warning glance towards Dexter.
Dexter looked like he was about to lose it. "Kill him? It was pitch black downstairs, how would I even know where he was? Don't listen to his nonsense, Caleb, are you out of your mind?" Normally cool Dexter always lost his composure around the sly Colin.
Colin, still hiding behind me, started whining, "He grabbed my injured arm, it hurt so much, it even bled." Colin deliberately showed the wound on his arm, and seeing the look of sympathy on my face, he leaned contentedly on my shoulder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFinn couldn't bear to watch. "Let's go, leave him here to fend for himself. He's too much." Bran had been zoning out the whole time, and after coming back to reality, he glanced at Colin and walked away quietly.
He seemed less lively than before.
"He's not telling a single truth," Dexter tried to convince me.
"Phoebe, you can't trust him. He and Melody might both be working for Damian. The Fitzgerald family is one of the backers of the gic engineering project. He's a capitalist through and through..." Colin whispered his complaints to me.
Dexter clenched his fists, his gaze filled with the desire to end Colin.
"You two seem perfect for each other, just make it work," I said indifferently, pushing Colin away and turning to leave.
Colin, looking pitiful, clung to me. "Phoebe, it hurts so much." Ahead, Stella was helping the injured Annora walk, while Melody, after being exposed, was clearly isolated, left to walk alone.
She was also injured, trailing behind by herself.
No one cared about the crazed dean, letting him fend for himself.
"Dexter..." Melody called out Dexter's name.
Dexter stopped, his gaze complex as he looked at Melody.
"You've always known I was Damian's person..." Melody said with a sarcastic laugh. "Actually, before Phoebe'supposed death, you had already sensed that the Fitzgerald Group was funding the gic engineering project, hadn't you?" Dexter remained silent, not speaking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Dexter, you've always known that Phoebe was product of gic experimentation. That's why you were so sure, so convinced she wouldn't die..." Melody asked in a low voice. "A gically modified freak, how could she possibly die? She's so good at disguising..." Dexter didn't respond, walking beside Melody.
He only knew that Melody couldn't die now, she knew too many secrets... about the gic engineering project, about the 'deification project'.
"Why not explain it to her? Weren't you convinced that she is Phoebe? Or are you starting to doubt it too?" Melody sneered. "The more you know the truth, the more terrifying it becomes, right? Phoebe is dead, there won't be another Phoebe, no matter how similar, no matter how much the memories overlap, it's not her..." Dexter frowned. "Maybe there really are miracles in this world." Melody laughed. "Miracles? The miracle is us ending up in this godforsaken place, not knowing if we can make it out alive."
"Damian must have located you by now, right?" I stopped, tyrning to look at Melody.Why hasn't he sent En someone in?"
"Because he can't tip his hand too soon." Melody looked at me, lowering m her voice. "The real mastermind behind the normal gis among us. He wants to know who it is too, whether it's you, Caleb, or anyone among us."
I scoffed mockingly. "So, there's someone even Damian is troubled and scared by." This madeeven more curious...
Who was the person behind all this? Among us? Looking at the few of us still alive.
None seemed like the mastermind.
And yet, he was among us...
