Chapter 30

Penulis: Max Dare
The Cameron family erupted in outrage.

"Eight thousand for a meal? That's ridiculous!" Austin's son barked. "He might as well go rob a bank!"

"You can't let that brute charge whatever he wants," he told the officers. "Tell him to stop gouging us."

Officer Blaise had to admit, he'd laughed the first time he heard it too. Then he'd checked the receipt.

"We've verified. It's eight thousand," he said evenly. "We inspected the restaurant—raw ingredients alone run over six thousand. With taxes and operating costs, the bill hits about eight thousand."

Even so, the Cameron family gaped, disbelieving until the officers matched the receipt with the restaurant's inventory. Once the dishes were verified, there was nothing left to argue. The evidence was there.

A flush of regret broke across Fantasia's face; if she'd known how costly it was, she would never have let Cody take the food.

Now what? Ray had filed a complaint and the police were involved. They'd admitted the theft—unless they c

  • My Reborn Apocalypse Begins with a Divorce   Chapter 115

    Another night passed.It was day 17 of the apocalypse.Ray woke up and immediately felt his mood lift. Every day now was a brand‑new beginning for him.He looked out the window in surprise. The world beyond, once dark and oppressive, was now washed in a noticeable pale brightness.The fog was lifting!Excitement surged through him. He rushed to the window, and sure enough, visibility had jumped to around twenty meters. The fog hadn't fully dispersed yet, but in these conditions, traveling outside no longer meant risking getting hopelessly lost.He could finally go out.Ray's heart leapt. He'd been trapped inside the residential complex for more than half a month. Even though he had women to keep him company every day, there was a limit to that—after all, you couldn't spend every waking moment doing nothing but eating, sleeping, and fooling around. He'd been bored stiff.Being forced into the life of a shut‑in was very different from choosing it.It was time to get out and take

    Honey and Lola were breathtaking—absolutely stunning.Even Lauren, who had always considered herself attractive, felt completely eclipsed in their presence. Standing before them, she simply couldn't compare.Yet, women like them were on their knees before Ray, serving him with total devotion.Her face went pale.With beauties like that at his side, how could Ray ever spare her a second glance?"Ray, what did I ever do to you?" she shrieked, her composure finally snapping. Gone was the pretense of begging or endurance—now there was only raw, venomous hatred. Her last sliver of hope had vanished. "Why are you doing this to me?!"Ray laughed in disbelief. "You're actually asking me that?"Some people never change—the venomous ones never reflect, they only blame.But he wasn't here to argue.He'd shown her all this for one reason only: to let her see just how well he was living now. To make her regret. To make her seethe with envy and hate.To wake her up? To make her weep and re

    The efficiency really was impressive.A smile curved at Ray's lips as he briskly opened the door.If this had been a trap—if Snarky Guy and his companion meant to trick him into opening up so they could take him down—then there would have been only one outcome: they'd be mercilessly swallowed by the otherworldly dimension.But instead, Snarky Guy was grinning obsequiously, bent nearly double, his face full of fawning submission.Ray couldn't help but sigh and think, 'What a coward.'After his wife had been used, he could still smile so ingratiatingly—proof that he had surrendered from the very depths of his soul.How utterly boring.Ray pointed toward the two boxes of instant noodles inside the door. "Take them."The two men were overjoyed. They shoved Lauren inside first, then each grabbed a box of instant noodles and bolted.Ray pressed the remote, closing the iron door, and then looked calmly at his ex‑wife.Lauren forcibly suppressed the venom in her expression and squeez

    Ray felt a sudden spark of interest.Was that Lucy's best friend—the one she called Lindsay?They were actually sleeping together?Damn. Could there be something... intimate going on between them?The thought sent a restless thrill through him. He almost wished he could reach through the phone to get a look for himself, or maybe even jump into the "action."Lucy really was top-tier.He just didn't know if she was still untouched.After the betrayal in his marriage, Ray had grown intensely sensitive about whether a woman was a virgin or not."Alright. As long as I'm not dreaming, that's good enough. Go back to sleep," Ray said with a laugh, and decisively hung up.On the other end, Lucy nearly lost her mind.You wake someone up, say one thing, and then hang up? Who does that?! No way.She was wide awake now. Lucy immediately called back—only to find she couldn't get through.Ray had already turned off his phone."Ray, you bastard!" Lucy exploded.…Finally, dawn broke.R

  • My Reborn Apocalypse Begins with a Divorce   Chapter 111

    Ray wasn't concerned about Honey, Lola, or anyone else out of kindness. The truth was simple: if he couldn't guarantee their safety, how were they supposed to come over and let him have his fun?There was no way he was going out himself—first, it was freezing; second, it wasn't safe.Even if he was unbeatable head-on, what if someone ambushed him from behind?Better safe than sorry. When it came to security, no amount of caution was excessive.The world now lacked law and morality. So he had to protect himself.…True to form, the clash solidified Ray's reputation for good.He was now seen as a god of slaughter.Since the disaster began, hadn't dozens fallen by his hand?If that didn't make him a killing god—or a straight-up demon—what would?But did anyone ever stop to ask if those deaths were meaningless?They weren't. Not only were they justified, every single one had been a would-be intruder trying to force their way into Ray's home.Was it wrong to defend himself? To p

  • My Reborn Apocalypse Begins with a Divorce   Chapter 110

    Right from the start, Ray had only used force once—when he snatched Lola away. The rest was all strategy. Even the "weapons" he used were the most ordinary things imaginable, picked up right off the ground.Toxic hailstones. Apples.Those were common items, nothing more.Bruce prided himself on his intelligence, yet he had been utterly crushed in this confrontation.As Ray closed in step by step, Bruce lost all will to fight.So many people hadn't been able to deal with Ray just moments ago. Now it was only him left.Oh, and Lola and the child—but were those two anything other than dead weight now?The four bodyguards he relied on most were all lying on the ground, their fates unknown. But in this bitter cold, that basically meant death. How was he supposed to fight a monster like Ray?After one glance at his son, he suddenly turned and ran fast—blindingly fast.He even switched off his flashlight. In the pitch-black garage, finding him would be almost impossible.But almost
