The next gust hit before they could agree on where to go.

The shelter roof groaned. A sharp metallic screech followed as another section of gutter tore loose, striking the ground outside. People screamed and crowded away from the entrance.

“Stop pushing!” Evelyn shouted. “There is room for everyone if you move in order.”

Damien and his team cleared a path through the room, directing people toward the rear exit. Evelyn checked the area beyond it through a narrow window. The exit opened onto a sm

  • Reborn Before Doomsday: My Ex husband will kneel    Chapter 55

    The first sign of trouble came from the road behind Evelyn's house.A series of heavy impacts shook the quiet morning, followed by the screech of metal. She looked up from her breakfast and checked the security cameras.A cargo truck had struck the entrance to a small distribution depot two streets away. Its front end was crushed against the concrete barrier, and several workers were running out of the building. Boxes had spilled across the road, blocking the route Evelyn had used the previous day.She set down her cup.The accident was serious, but the crowd gathering around it concerned her more. People were rushing toward the scattered goods, grabbing cartons before anyone could determine whether the truck was carrying food, medicine, or ordinary merchandise.A man climbed onto the truck's rear platform and began throwing boxes to the crowd.Then a second vehicle arrived.Its driver sounded the horn repeatedly, trying to get through, but nobody moved. Within minutes, the road had b

    By the following morning, Evelyn had made up her mind.She could not spend every day watching the cameras and reacting to whatever happened outside. Her supplies were secure for now, but she needed reliable information about the surrounding district. If the roads became completely impassable or medical services disappeared, she would have very little time to adjust.She decided to visit the community center Peter had mentioned.She wouldn't go to offer unlimited help or make herself responsible for strangers. She wanted to confirm whether the treatment point was operating and find out which roads remained usable. That information could matter if she ever needed to leave her neighborhood in a hurry.Before departing, she checked the gate, the locks, and the camera feeds. The fallen tree still blocked part of the street, but workers had begun cutting away the smaller branches. The stolen-property incident had not repeated overnight.She left through the rear access lane and took the uti

    Evelyn woke to the sound of metal striking metal.She sat up immediately, reached for her flashlight, and checked the time on her phone. It was barely past five in the morning.The noise came again, followed by angry shouting from the street.She opened the security monitor.Three men were attempting to force open the gate of the house across from hers. One held a metal bar while another pulled at the lock. A fourth man stood near the road, watching for anyone approaching.The house belonged to an older couple who had evacuated the previous afternoon. Evelyn had seen them leave with two bags and a small suitcase.The men knew the property was empty.She watched as the lock gave way.One of them pushed the gate open and disappeared inside. Another followed, carrying a large sack. The man standing guard glanced toward Evelyn's compound, then returned his attention to the street.Evelyn's stomach tightened.She could call the police, but the response time was uncertain. She could confron

    Evelyn waited until the injured man and his family had moved away from her gate before returning inside.She had given them a dressing, clean gauze, and instructions to maintain pressure on the wound. It wasn't enough to treat a serious injury, but it was better than leaving them with nothing. She had also told them where the nearest clinic was located, though she couldn't guarantee that anyone would be working there.She locked the inner door and checked the cameras again.The street was growing darker. People who had spent the afternoon trying to salvage belongings were beginning to disappear into whatever shelter they could find. A few families carried mattresses toward the larger buildings, while others pushed loaded carts through the narrow roads.Evelyn turned away from the screen.She had spent too many hours reacting to whatever happened next. Now that she was home, she needed a practical plan for the days ahead, one that did not depend on the authorities restoring services or

    The rear access lane was narrower than Evelyn remembered.A delivery tricycle lay on its side near the entrance, surrounded by scattered cartons and broken glass. One wall had cracked from top to bottom, forcing her to steer around a pile of bricks. She drove slowly until another vehicle would no longer fit, then parked beside a shuttered workshop.From there, she could reach her street on foot.Evelyn locked the utility vehicle and checked the small bag over her shoulder. The air smelled of dust, fuel, and something burning several streets away. In the distance, people were shouting, but the sounds were too scattered to tell whether a fight had started.She kept moving.The back lane connected to a row of residential properties. Some gates stood open, while others had been secured with chains. A man was dragging a suitcase over the uneven pavement, followed by a woman carrying a sleeping child. They looked exhausted, but neither appeared injured.“Is the road ahead clear?” Evelyn ask

    Evelyn made her decision before sunrise.She would return home.The school courtyard had become crowded overnight. Families occupied every dry corner, injured people lay beneath the covered walkway, and volunteers struggled to distribute what little food remained. Nobody was starving yet, but the arguments over portions had begun. A man had tried to take three bottles of water from a box meant for children before two volunteers stopped him.Evelyn had seen enough to understand what would happen if she stayed much longer. The refuge might be safe for a few hours, but it was not somewhere she could build a future.She needed her own shelter, her own supplies, and control over who entered her space.At the far end of the courtyard, Damien was speaking to two men who had arrived with a handcart. One of his staff members approached him with a folded sheet of paper, and he studied it before giving several brief instructions.When he finished, Evelyn walked over.“I’m leaving for the western
