Chapter 182
The enemy of an enemy was a friend. Did Dexter intentionally avoid putting in his best effort to find the murderer and instead just watch them fight?
"What about Sophia?" Eason repeated the question I asked earlier.
If no one were innocent, what about Sophia?
Dexter’s hand was shaking as he held my hand. "She...is the key. She is the subject of genome editing experiments and should be showcased in the cabinet as evidence."
So, the person behind it killed me. I smiled bitterly. My genes were edited before I was conceived and born.
What did I do wrong? Why should I be ruthlessly killed and used by everyone?
I struggled to free myself from Dexter’s grip, but he held me tightly. His voice sounded hoarse as if he was begging me. "Sophia..."
He did this every time I got angry. But I was killed! Would he still condone the mastermind?
I firmly stated, my eyes were red. "I must find the serial murderer! I don’t care why you’re protecting him. I can’t allow him to kill everyone in order to target the so-called mastermind!"
Those lives were innocent! Regardless of their guilt, it was the law that should administer punishment, not a serial killer!
Dexter lowered his head, his breath trembling with emotion. He still refused to explain. He was so persistent.
