Chapter 113 Accept It
Amber froze for a moment.
She was a little surprised, but not really shocked.
As an outsider, she could clearly tell that Timothy and the others didn’t treat Cecelia that well.
Especially that guy Ryan. He was always calling Cecelia a useless slacker.
If Cecelia were a useless slacker, then what would that make her?
Leaving that team didn’t seem like a bad thing.
Finished
Amber quickly accepted it. She smiled at Cecelia. “Got it, Cecelia. I’ll clean up the house, find something to eat, and later check the area for zombies. Might as well practice my ability.”
“Sure.”
Cecelia liked that kind of attitude.
Efficient. No dragging things out. And most importantly–she didn’t talk much.
With Ryan’s noisy presence gone, the house felt unusually peaceful.
She planned to use tonight to test something.
She wanted to drop the level 3 crystal into the small pool inside her space to see what would happen.
Meanwhile, Timothy and the others found a house not far from Cecelia’s group and settled in.
While they were tidying up, Regina frowned and looked at Timothy, sounding a little disappointed. ‘Timothy, it looks like Cecelia is really set on splitting up here. They’re not even staying in the same place with us anymore…”
Honestly, she felt reluctant to part with Ivy.
Not because of Ivy’s healing ability.
But because Ivy was genuinely a good sister. She treated Cecelia well–and she treated her well too.
Before, she had thought Cecelia was just a lazy freeloader and felt sorry for Ivy
But over the past few days, she realized something. Cecelia cared about Ivy more than any of them did.
She could feel it. Cecelia truly wanted to become strong enough to protect Ivy herself instead of relying
on outsiders like them.
She thought that if Ivy were her own sister, she might make the same choice Cecelia did.

Chapter 113 Accept It
Because in this apocalypse, the only person you could truly rely on was yourself.
She envied the bond between sisters like Ivy and Cecelia.
Finished
Timothy paused before speaking in a low voice. “Cecelia can protect Ivy. Her power is strange. I suspect she has an ability but has been hiding it from us. But whether they stay or leave isn’t something we can force. Since it’s their decision, we should respect it.”
Then he looked toward Matthew by the door. “Matthew, take some food over to Cecelia’s group. Tell them that until we pass through Merriton, they’ll still get a share of our supplies.”
Matthew nodded. “Got it. I’ll bring it over now.”
Ryan, standing nearby, curled his lip but didn’t say anything this time.
He hadn’t expected Cecelia to be this firm.
She really insisted on taking Ivy with her.
For their team, that was a huge loss.
From now on, he wouldn’t dare charge straight at zombies anymore.
Getting injured in the apocalypse was no joke.
Without Ivy, they’d have to rely on medicine. And that meant actually finding the right drugs. If they used the wrong one, they’d be the ones finished.
And… Cecelia wasn’t completely useless either.
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became.
Now he was full of regret.
If he hadn’t always targeted and picked on Cecelia, she probably wouldn’t have dragged Ivy away from the team so decisively.
And now everyone was…
Ryan felt miserable.
He could only sit by the doorway, pulling at his hair in frustration.
When he saw Matthew picking up food to take to Cecelia’s place, he suddenly stood up. “I’ll go with you.”
Matthew paused.
Timothy’s face darkened. “Ryan, come back.”
“Timothy?”
Ryan stopped at the doorway and turned around, looking frustrated. “I’m going to apologize to Cecelia.”

“And you think apologizing now will help?”
Hendrick glanced at him coldly. “If you had the guts, you’d at least stick to hating her.”
“I…”
Ryan instantly lost his nerve and slumped again.
