After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Gained Nothing

Renee Strong stared in disbelief at the man before her, who had clearly lost his mind.

She frowned and retorted:

"What are you talking about? Isn’t this because you wanted to awaken a Thunder Element Superpower?

Going to City J was my idea, sure, but you were the one who made the final decision!"

She was a Healing Element Superpower User. She could have had a much better future at the base, yet she willingly accompanied Liam Grant to such a dangerous place.

And now he was blaming her for everything, making her out to be the sole culprit?

Renee Strong was so furious she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

She finally understood what Nina Jacobs from her past life had told her.

She had said that Liam Grant was unfit for any great responsibility because he couldn’t bear the consequences of his actions...

Back then, she hadn’t believed it at all. After all, Liam Grant was so exceptional.

But now, with the truth laid bare before her, a sense of irony washed over her.

"Liam, this isn’t her fault."

Simon Abbott came in and tried to mediate. "No one expected Wyatt Jacobs to do something like this. I think he might have developed serious psychological problems."

Simon Abbott’s words made Liam Grant slump to the ground, dejected.

’That’s right. I should have noticed sooner.’

Back at the shelter, he had already noticed Wyatt Jacobs’ growing fondness for killing for sport.

Once, just because of a single comment from some passersby, he had lured an entire street’s worth of zombies to them.

As a result, all of those people died.

And he had just turned a blind eye to it.

In his past life, Nina Jacobs had established strict rules for the team, forbidding anyone from endangering the lives of others.

This included plundering supplies, harassing women, and so on.

Because of this, Ivan Lawson and Wyatt Jacobs had complained to him more than once, thinking Nina Jacobs was too harsh.

Once, when Ivan Lawson broke the rules, Nina Jacobs broke one of his legs without hesitation, and he had resented her for it ever since.

This time around, after the team formed, he was the captain. He had long since decided to abolish those rules, believing his team members should be free to do as they pleased.

’So what if it’s killing people?’

But he never imagined that when Wyatt Jacobs got ruthless, he would even dare to lay a hand on his parents.

’How dare he!!!’

"I told you I didn’t want to go to City J!

If I had stayed at the base, Wyatt Jacobs would never have dared to do this!

Why wouldn’t you believe me, big brother? Why did you have to drag me along?!"

Hannah Grant had cried her fill, but she still couldn’t accept what had happened.

Originally, she had planned to stay at the base so she could still see Adrian Shaw every day.

But Liam Grant had been worried she’d run her mouth and insisted on bringing her along no matter what.

The first thing she did after returning today was go see Adrian Shaw, but he had looked at her as if she were a complete stranger.

’In the end, this is all Liam Grant’s fault.’

"Believe you? Believe the boy-crazy girl who falls in love with every guy she sees?

Believe all the stupid things you’ve done in the past?

Hannah, if you hadn’t leaked secrets for some man back then, we wouldn’t have to be doing any of this!"

He had done a lot of thinking on the road from City J. He didn’t understand why, after getting a second chance, things were even harder.

There were clearly the same number of zombies, but they were a hundred times more dangerous than in his past life.

In his past life, he’d always managed to find suitable shelters while on the run, but this time, he couldn’t find any at all.

Eventually, he figured it out. Not only was he missing a few capable people, but he was also saddled with a few deadweights.

Although Hannah Grant was a Space Superpower User, she didn’t know how to do anything and was completely useless.

Compared to the Nina Jacobs of his past life, she was a world apart.

"You’re yelling at me? You got Mom and Dad killed, and now you think you can bully me?

WAAAAH, give me back my mom..."

Hannah Grant’s crying grew even more heartbroken, and she simply ran out of the room.

Watching the siblings tear into each other, Renee Strong felt a surge of vindictive satisfaction.

Simon Abbott, on the other hand, didn’t say much, only mentioning he was going to check on her before leaving.

"Liam, I think you need to calm down.
