End of the World? I'm the Boss novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229 Free Food Chaos

“Free? A bag of rice?”

Willard’s eyes widened in shock. “Ms. Neel, did you just say… a free bag of rice?”

How is that possible?

A bag of rice….

For people now, that’s extremely valuable!

Robin actually said that as long as Centerville residents accept Outerville residents, each person can get a bag of rice!

“That’s right.”

Robin nodded. She glanced at the sky outside the window. “Only within four hours.”

Willard looked at her with a complicated expression, like he wanted to say something but held back. In the end, he only said, “Yes.”

Then he quickly went out to spread the news.

Robin stood up from the sofa. “Now it’s our turn.”

There was a small square in the Centerville. When the group arrived, the area was full of noisy voices, mixed with angry shouting. “Why should we?! I worked my ass off to get into the Centerville! Do you know how much I paid for this?!”

“And now those lowlifes outside can just come in whenever they want? Then what was all my effort for?!”

Soon, someone argued back. “You’re full of crap! How much effort did you put in? How much did you sacrifice?! It was your wife who paid the price! Don’t think I don’t know what you did to get into the Centerville. You personally gave your wife to the Centerville guards just to get the right to live here! And your wife became a toy for those guards and died of sickness not long after!”

“Exactly. Everyone knows that they say only people who make big contributions to the base can live in the Centerville, but everyone knows the shady deals behind it! You keep calling other people trash, but what the hell are you! You’re just a coward who sold his own wife!!”

Since his secret was revealed, the man became angry from embarrassment. “So what! I am the pillar of the house. I’ve always been the one working hard to make money. That woman ate and drank well at home. Now that the family is in trouble, shouldn’t she give something back?

Besides, by sacrificing her, one of us could live. If we both stayed in the Outerville, maybe neither of us would have survived!”

The crowd erupted into chaos. People argued, cursed, and soon it turned into a large-scale fight.

The place had been noisy, so the voice wasn’t very clear at first. But as soon as it rang out, people from all directions started responding: “What news? What news?!”

“Say it already!”

This immediately grabbed everyone’s attention.

A man pushed through the crowd, holding up a bag of rice high in the air, his face full of exaggerated excitement. “As long as Centerville residents accept people from the Outerville, they can go to Linden Plaza and get a bag of rice for free!”

“I already got mine. I heard it’s only for four hours. It’s free, really free! If you go late, it might be too late!”

After saying that, he tightly hugged the rice in his arms. He shouted while running into the distance. “I have to tell my wife this good news quickly. Everyone can get it. It’s free! It’s freeur”

Drake’s vision went dark. “That guy…”

The person holding the bag of rice was none other than Willard!

And as he ran off, the people he had planted in the crowd also started shouting excitedly, “What? Free? A bag of rice?! Then I’m going to get one too!”

“Only for four hours! If you go late, it will be gone!!”
