After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Diverting Disaster

Nina Jacobs’s rebirth wasn’t the scary part.

The scary part was that they didn’t know.

Because they had worked together to kill Nina Jacobs.

Nina Jacobs could be the one wild card in their midst.

The two people in the car fell silent for a moment after hearing Simon Abbott’s analysis.

"Abbott has a point."

Wyatt Jacobs quickly came up with an excuse.

"Stay over? Of course, you can, but I just finished shopping and haven’t made it home yet."

The moment Nina Jacobs got the call from Wyatt Jacobs asking to stay over, she guessed his intentions.

Wyatt Jacobs was testing her.

But Wyatt Jacobs couldn’t possibly be this cautious on his own.

It could only be that person.

Simon Abbott.

Nina Jacobs’s eyes darkened slightly.

The one she trusted the least, but who was also the smartest.

Renee Strong didn’t know how to drive, so there had to be at least one other person in the car acting as the driver.

If Wyatt Jacobs was the driver, then this call must have been instigated by Simon Abbott.

Sure enough, Wyatt Jacobs asked her a question in the most casual tone he could manage:

"Nina, you’re out shopping this late? Don’t tell me you’re sneaking off to eat some good food all by yourself?"

On the other end of the line, Nina Jacobs was silent for a few seconds.

The three people in the car all held their breath.

"Wyatt, there’s something I don’t know if I should tell you,

I’m feeling very conflicted right now."

"What... what is it?"

Wyatt Jacobs swallowed hard, suddenly nervous and guilty.

’Could Nina really be back too?’

Nina Jacobs seemed to sense his nervousness over the phone and let out a soft chuckle.

"Why are you so nervous?

It’s not a big deal, really. It’s just... I think my mom’s pregnant. I might be a big sister soon."

So that was it.

"Nina, since you’re not home, I’ll just head out with my friends for now.

I’ll catch up with you when I have time."

Wyatt Jacobs breathed a sigh of relief.

That would also explain why Nina Jacobs was out buying baby supplies so late.

It all made perfect sense. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Wyatt Jacobs hung up. The three in the car looked at each other and then burst out laughing.

"Were we being too paranoid?"

Renee Strong couldn’t help but say.

’So what if Nina came back for revenge?

There were more of them.

Worst case, they’d just kill her again.’

"Now’s not the time,

It’s better if she doesn’t die just yet. She might be useful to us later."

Simon Abbott’s eyes were full of calculation.

"Are you talking about... that person?"

Renee Strong seemed to have thought of something as well.

"Besides, aren’t you and Liam the ones who want to make her regret it the most?"

Simon Abbott said nothing, just smiling and shaking his head.

"Liam and I already have a plan.

Who cares about her?

Wyatt, let’s get going."

Renee Strong glanced irritably out the window.

Over the past two days, Liam Grant had already mentioned Nina Jacobs unintentionally many times.

Once, he even called out Nina Jacobs’s name.

She knew he still couldn’t break the habits from their past life.

In their past life, every time they found supplies, Liam Grant would immediately have Nina Jacobs put them into her space.

’Is it because he misses the convenience of the space?’

Renee Strong decided that as soon as the apocalypse began, she would find a Space Superpower User to replace Nina Jacobs.

...

「On the day the acid rain fell.」

The morning air, which should have been fresh, was filled with a strange smell.

"The factories are polluting again.
