Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 7

“I’m telling you that Phoebe can never die. And whatever my relationship with her is, it has nothing to do with this case!” Dexter snapped with a mixture of anger and embarrassment,

“Mr. Fitzgerald, we’d appreciate your cooperation in this investigation. Please don’t make things harder for us,” the cop said with a hint of irritation in his voice.

I stood to the side. With a smirk on my face, I said to the young cop, “How could he possibly tell you about what dirty things he had done to his own sister?”

“Captain! We’ve got the lab results from the blood and skin found on the bracelet. It doesn’t match the body. The DNA is from another victim, a woman named Phoebe Caldwell, It looks like something bad has probably happened to Phoebe.”

Dexter’s fists clenched tightly, but he stood firm in his belief that I couldn’t be dead, “She’s clever enough so she’s just trying to throw us off her scent.

I watched Dexter, my heart was sinking in disappointment until it reached the bottom.

“Mr. Fitzgerald, your stalling and lack of cooperation could be costing us precious time. If Phoebe’s been taken by a killer, she could be desperate while waiting for rescue!”

Looking at the officer, my eyes welled up. He was right.

During the transition from being alive to death, no one could imagine the depths of my despair. ! prayed countless times for the police to find me, for Dexter to come save me.

But in the end, just thinking of Dexter made my heart ache.
