Chapter 441 Colin glanced back at me. "Phoebe, did you hope it was me?" "I didn't hope so," I shook my head.

Whatever the intentions of the person behind all this were, their methods were undeniably extreme.

Using such methods to deal with and harm others for their own ends... I couldn't see them as entirely 'good.' Colin grabbed my hand, pullingto hide behind a van, and took off his protective gear. "If you don't hope it's me, then it's not me." I looked at him, puzzled. "And if I did hope it was you?" "Then I'd find the person behind this, replace them, and becthe one you hoped for." Colin was earnest.

I couldn't help but smile at his silly yet clever response, which addressed my doubts.

Finn said Caleb was all brains and no heart, but from what I saw... Colin was terrifyingly high in both IQ and EQ.

He just... used his intelligence on others and his emotional smarts on 'calculating' me.

Sighing, I walked behind him and hugged him from behind, tiredly saying, "I'm so exhausted, carry me?" With a smile, Colin liftedonto his back, step by step leadingaway.

"Sir," I murmured, eventually falling asleep on Colin's back.

When I woke up, Eric had surprisingly arrived by car, not only Eric but he had brought quite a few people with him, evidently aware of our precarious situation.

I was astonished. "How did Eric get here so fast?" "Sir, you've been missing for days. The last trace was here; I've been searching for you guys," Eric explained. "What about Bran and the others... Are they okay?" I must have been really worn out, feeling utterly weak. These past days, surviving the brutal gin the derelict building, I was practically living on adrenaline. Falling down the stairs didn't help, and coupled with hunger and lack of sleep, my body was severely fatigued.

"They're all right. Silas was the worst off, but he's alive. Melody was taken by the Gene-Forge Collective, but she'll survive. Stella's injuries were minor Eric reassured me. "As for the fest, just superficial wounds." Relieved, I drifted back into sleep.

QUMS In my dreams, I could feel Colin holding my hand, never letting go.

Deep down, I knew the mastermind behind the deadly gwasn't Colin, but I was scared it could be. Waking up again, I found myself in a hospital in Sea City, with Stella sobbing besideand Dexter ne sitting nearby, giving Colin unfriendly looks.

"Phoebe!" Stella exclaimed upon seeingawake.

"What happened...?" I frowned, confused. I had only slept, so why was I in a hospital with everyone looking so worried? "Phoebe, you're finally awake." Stella climbed out of her bed and huggedtightly.

"What about Robin?" I patted Stella's back.

"Robin went back to the police station. This case has alerted s

very high-ranking officials," Stella whispered, hesitating. Dshouldn't say too much, but it's big even the top brass are involved!"

I paused, understanding. The person behind this had drawn significant ve attention which seemed inevitable. But it hadn't been made public yet, likely to avoid panic...

The authorities would definitely intervene, and the people from e Gene-Forge Collective must be m panicking by now. "Have I been asleep for long?" I asked, noticing Colin had immediately stood up to block Dexter.
