Chapter 325

Author: Ada Plus
It sounded like Nicole was asking Zeph, but maybe she was asking herself, too.

"We're only at the beginning," Zeph said. "We'll live long enough to see the end of it."

We.

Nicole thought about that and realized he was right. She was only in her early twenties, and Zeph was only a few years older. If they kept fighting their way through each disaster, maybe they really would live long enough to see a new world.

She turned in the sunset and wrapped her arms around him.

For the first time, she

    Nicole didn't even blink. "That's fine."Her answer caught Amy off guard, and she quickly called Lillian over.Lillian stayed professional. "We do sell submarines, but we'll need to verify your points card first."She had seen plenty of people walk in bragging about buying a plane or submarine, only to spend half an hour talking before revealing they barely had any points at all.So for anything priced in the seven figures or higher, the store checked the customer's balance first. It saved everyone time.Nicole didn't mind and handed over her black card.Silver cards were issued for seven-figure balances, gold for eight figures, and black for nine.The moment Lillian saw the brand-new black card, her expression changed.Lillian recovered quickly and became noticeably more attentive. "Right this way."She wasn't the only one surprised. The other clerks had worked at the trading hall for years, and none of them had ever seen a black card before."Did you see that? Someone act

    The staff member's face lit up when Nicole and Zeph walked in. "The inspection results are back. I was just about to contact you."To everyone's surprise, every batch passed.The timing couldn't have been better. The shipment filled a critical shortage at the base's factories, and production quickly ramped up around the clock.Crews worked in shifts day and night, racing to build more boats, survival pods, and submarines before the next disaster hit.Once the receipt was verified, the paperwork was signed, stamped, and finalized.Nicole took the documents to the points exchange center. The employee behind the counter stared at the total, ran the numbers several times, and only entered it into the system after confirming that it really was nine figures.Just like that, Nicole became the richest scavenger the base had ever seen.In fact, aside from the base itself, she was probably the richest person there.The employee smiled as he handed everything back, but still suggested s

    Camila seethed as she thought about Nicole.Back at the villa community, Nicole had beaten and humiliated her, forced her to eat filth, and left her with no dignity at all.Now, Nicole had followed her all the way to the base, humiliated her in public again, and threatened the one thing Camila couldn't afford to lose: her identity as Arthur's daughter.Without that, Camila had nothing. She couldn't protect the life she had now, much less marry well and stay comfortable for the rest of her life.She and Irene could deny everything, but Nicole was still a threat. Worse, Arthur wasn't the kind of man they could fool forever.Nicole couldn't stay at the base. They had to get rid of her before she ruined everything.The thought festered until Camila's expression turned vicious."Nicole, I'm gonna kill you."Nicole, meanwhile, had no idea what Camila was thinking.She was in the middle of eating when she suddenly sneezed several times in a row. She rubbed her nose. "Someone must b

    Deep down, Camila still believed Arthur resented Irene for marrying someone else and resented her for being raised by another man.He never truly accepted either of them. Supporting two more people cost him nothing, so he let them stay close. Sometimes, Camila even wondered if keeping them around was his own quiet way of getting back at Irene for leaving him all those years ago.As a senior officer at the military base, Arthur had no shortage of options. If he wanted a woman in his life, he could've had his pick. Irene, meanwhile, was already middle-aged and only came looking for him again after her husband died.Camila couldn't exactly blame him for being bitter.What bothered her even more was how little Irene seemed to care about Camila's future once they reached the base. Almost all her attention went to Arthur.Arthur wanted Camila to enlist, and Irene sided with him even though she knew Camila wasn't cut out for that kind of life.Then, when Camila asked him to help her

    Or maybe Arthur simply had no interest in romance anymore.After all these years of Irene trying to get closer to him, he never once returned her feelings. He made sure she and Camila were comfortable, but that was as far as it went.The man Irene once knew felt more distant with every passing year. She couldn't read him anymore, much less understand what he was thinking.And now Nicole was here.The radio crackled, pulling both Irene and Camila from their thoughts."Sorry. I've got a lot to do today, so I won't be coming home."Arthur's voice was calm and steady. He sounded polite, but nothing more.Irene froze for a moment before quickly answering, "You still have to eat, no matter how busy you are. If you can't come home, I can make something and bring it to you.""There's a cafeteria here. Besides, this is a restricted military area. Civilians aren't allowed in."And that was it.Irene's face fell, and her hands slowly curled into fists.In previous years, even when Arth

    Irene dug up the supplies the Clarks had hidden outside the villa community, hired a few armed escorts, and headed for the military base with Camila.But as soon as they reached Grayport, the men turned on them. If a military patrol hadn't come along when it did, Irene and Camila would've been killed.Getting to the base on their own clearly wasn't going to work.So when the soldiers questioned Irene, she lied. She said Arthur was family and Camila was his daughter.She didn't feel guilty about it. Arthur had supposedly stayed single all these years because of her, and the truth was, she had never completely gotten over him either.Once the soldiers heard they were Arthur's family, they helped Irene get in touch with him.They gave her a military satellite phone, and for the first time in more than 20 years, Irene heard Arthur's voice again.The sound of his voice brought all her old regrets rushing back.If she had known they would meet again someday, she never would've given

    Nicole didn't hesitate. She blocked Edward right away.Less than a minute later, her phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar number.She didn't need to guess; this was Edward's classmate or one of his friends.Given a second chance at life, Nicole had zero interest in being taken for a fool. She w

    Nicole jolted, then immediately checked with her mind.The storage space was still there. The supplies were still there, too. She tested it; she thought of an item, and a coal briquette appeared in her hand.Sweeping the space again, she noticed the glowing timer had reset to zero.That was when

    After paying the deposit, Nicole drove straight to the largest outdoor gear store downtown.The outdoor gear market was fiercely competitive. The store was in full clearance mode, shutting down with brutal discounts. Some items were marked down to 20% of the original price.Perfect timing.Nicole

    "Ah!"Nicole Floyd jolted upright in bed, gasping. Sweat streamed down her forehead, her eyes unfocused and hollow.The sight in front of her cut through the haze in her mind.This was her old apartment, the one from before the apocalypse.Ding, ding…Text alerts kept chiming. She grabbed her p
