After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22: Chapter 22: It Turns Out to Be Because of Him?

In another villa in Prosperity Gardens, Mr. and Mrs. Grant were shouting at the top of their lungs, cursing at the refugees relentlessly knocking on their door.

"This is our house! Why should we open the door for you?"

"Take shelter from the rain? Go find shelter somewhere else! We’re not opening this door!"

By early morning, Jed Grant had already cursed out and driven away several groups of people.

But different people kept coming to their door, begging to be let in to stay.

"Dad, that’s enough. They can’t get in."

Liam Grant stopped Jed Grant, who was standing under the eaves.

"We still have to drive them away. We have so many supplies here. If someone gets in, who wouldn’t be green with envy?" said Mrs. Grant, Susan Warner.

A few days ago, her son had brought them to the city, telling them the apocalypse was coming. He had filled this house from top to bottom with supplies, and it would be bad if those people outside found out.

"Mrs. Grant, I’ve already had people raise and reinforce the walls around this house, and the main gate has been thickened by several layers. How could those people possibly get in?"

Renee Strong walked out, dressed in a silk nightgown, her young body graceful and alluring.

"It was my son’s idea. You all just followed his lead."

At these words, it wasn’t just Renee Strong’s expression that changed; so did those of the few others in the room.

"Alright, Mom, why don’t you go make some food? Everyone’s hungry."

Liam Grant felt a little helpless. He was the only one on the team who had brought his family along.

Afraid that he wouldn’t be able to properly explain certain things from his past life, he had lied and claimed he’d dreamed that the apocalypse was coming.

This also led the Grant Family to believe that everyone else was just riding their coattails.

"Brother, didn’t you say you were going to look for someone outside? Can you take me with you? I’ve been cooped up at home for days, I’m going to die of boredom."

Hannah Grant pleaded, tugging on Liam Grant’s sleeve.

"Mm, alright. Get ready in a bit."

Liam Grant couldn’t say no to his own sister, so he agreed.

"Liam, didn’t we already have a plan for this?"

After Hannah Grant walked away cheering, Renee Strong was clearly displeased.

’They had planned this the night before last. What if something goes wrong because Hannah is tagging along?’

"What else can we do? If we can’t find Ian Chandler, this whole lead is a bust," Ivan Lawson said, taking a large bite of his breakfast.

Little did they know, Nina Jacobs had heard everything they said.

"In our past life, Ian Chandler would only listen to Nina Jacobs. If it weren’t for him, Nina Jacobs never would have been able to latch onto a connection like Myra Lawson."

Renee Strong said indignantly. She was resentful; although Nina Jacobs had saved Ian Chandler, she was clearly the one who had healed him.

’This life, I have to get ahold of Ian Chandler and secure Myra Lawson’s connection for myself.’

In her past life, while she was treating Ian Chandler, she had overheard him say that the first place he was forced to flee to was the Prosperity Gardens Villa Area in City D.

That was why they had chosen this place as their temporary base in this life.

’So that’s why. It was because of him?’

Nina Jacobs suddenly understood.

Myra Lawson was the only daughter of the future leader of the City D Base, and Ian Chandler was her only son.

Not only that, but Myra Lawson’s current husband was the supreme commander of the main base’s military, and her ex-husband had established what was then the largest private base—the Tomorrow Base—in the third year of the apocalypse.

No wonder Renee Strong wanted to get in with her.

What Renee Strong didn’t know, however, was that the only reason she had been able to heal the heavily injured Ian Chandler in their past life was because Nina Jacobs had given him some diluted Healing Potion beforehand.

Thinking of this made Nina Jacobs’s heart ache.

In her past life, exchanging for a single bottle of Healing Potion cost a massive amount of system experience, so she always diluted it and used it drop by drop.

But this time, after accumulating for the past few days, she already had nearly 90,000 bottles of Healing Potion!

She wouldn’t let Myra Lawson’s network of connections slip through her fingers, either.
