Semua Bab Reborn Before The Apocalypse: My Revenge Begins: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Clara stepped back inside the fire station with Marcus, and they were still laughing about something he had said when Elena suddenly appeared in front of them.“Thank goodness I found you!” Elena exclaimed.Clara's smile faded slightly as she looked at her. “I've been looking for you. I told you I wanted to talk to you both.”Elena's words trailed off when she noticed Marcus standing behind Clara. Her eyes moved between them before a knowing smile slowly spread across her face.“I guess you two are back to being friends.”Warmth immediately rushed to Clara's cheeks.“It's nothing,” she said quickly, looking away.Elena's smile widened. “Girl, I know that smile.”She chuckled as Clara rolled her eyes.“Can we just go to the research room?” Clara asked, trying to hide her embarrassment.“Of course,” Elena replied, still looking amused.The three of them walked toward the research room, but the moment they stepped inside and the door closed behind them, Elena's playful expression disappe

Clara pulled out her phone and checked her bank account. Her eyes moved across the screen, and a quiet breath of relief escaped her when she saw that there was still some cash left. After locking her phone, she looked back at the list in front of her. The first place she planned to visit was a gardening supply store on the other side of the city. If it hadn't already been looted, she could probably get most of the seeds and tools they needed there. Clara closed the notebook, already planning her route. She would leave after breakfast and try to return before dark. At least, that was the plan. Clara looked through the window and saw Marcus standing outside with several survivors. Training had already started, and she smiled faintly when she realized he hadn't wasted any time. She stepped outside and found him showing the group how to hold their weapons properly. “Keep your feet apart,” Marcus instructed. “You need to stay balanced. If something knocks you down, strength w

Clara folded the list and slipped it into her pocket.“I’m going into the city.”Marcus looked up from the rifle he was cleaning. “For what?”“Gardening supplies.”His expression changed immediately. “I’ll come with you.”Clara paused.For a moment, she almost agreed. Having Marcus with her would make things easier. He was strong, experienced, and capable of handling himself, which meant she wouldn't have to worry about watching her back every second.Then the System warning flashed through her mind.[MARCUS WEBB CANNOT ACCOMPANY THE HOST.]Her fingers tightened around the edge of the table as the System's warning echoed in her mind. She couldn't take Marcus with her, not this time.“I'll go alone.”Marcus frowned. “Why?”“I'll be quick.”“That wasn't what I asked.”Clara met his eyes. “I need you here.”Marcus lowered the rifle onto his lap. “Why?”“Because Elena is busy with the research, and someone needs to keep an eye on everyone.”He glanced toward the research room before looki

Clara drove back to the fire station faster than she normally would, her hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that her knuckles had begun to ache. Every few seconds, her eyes flicked toward the rearview mirror. The road behind her was empty, but she still expected to see the same man following her.She forced herself to take a slow breath. She had escaped. That was what mattered.Yet the words kept replaying in her head.By the time the fire station came into view, Clara's pulse had finally begun to settle. She drove through the gates and parked near the entrance, but the moment she stepped out of the car, Marcus noticed her.He had been helping two survivors carry bags of supplies across the compound, but he immediately stopped and stared at her.“Clara?”She didn't answer.She shut the car door and started walking toward the building, hoping she could reach somewhere quiet before anyone noticed how badly shaken she was. Marcus quickly handed the bags to the nearest survivo

The next morning, Clara waited until most of the survivors were busy with their usual tasks before finding Marcus.He was near the entrance, checking the weapons with two of the defenders. The moment he noticed Clara approaching, he handed one of the guns to the man beside him and stepped away from the others.“What is it?” Marcus asked quietly.Clara glanced around to make sure no one was close enough to overhear them before lowering her voice.“I did something last night.”Marcus studied her face, his brows drawing together.“That sounds worrying already.”Clara almost smiled, but the tension sitting heavily in her chest made it difficult.“I gave three people different information about today's supply runs.”Marcus's expression changed immediately.“Who?” He asked.“Rachel was told about the pharmacy. Another survivor was told about an abandoned warehouse, and Derek was told about a food supply location.”For a moment, Marcus simply stared at her.Then understanding slowly appeared
