End of the World? I'm the Boss novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 The Truth

Erin froze, then was almost immediately overjoyed. “Aunt Robin, you’ve agreed to let me stay?”

“Why wouldn’t I?”

After all, another set of helping hands would be a good thing.

Naturally, Robin didn’t tell Erin what she was thinking.

“Follow us.”

Finish

Robin took a few steps forward before she paused and turned back around, asking, “Do you have an ability?

“An ability? I…”

Erin swallowed before she spoke, “I don’t…”

Robin scanned Erin from head to toe, making Erin feel a little guilty.

Fortunately, Robin quickly looked away. “Since you have no abilities, you’ll stay with the rest in the zoo employee dormitories.”

Erin let out a sigh of relief and quickly nodded. “Okay!”

Since Monica was the one who had brought her back, Robin gave Monica the task of getting Erin settled in.

But when she was assigning the task to Monica, Robin suddenly seemed to think of something. A meaningful smile curled at the corner of her lips. “Go ahead and help her prepare the things she needs, but there’s no need to be too thorough. She’ll have to come looking for me sooner or later.”

Monica was a smart woman.

She immediately understood what Robin was getting at and paused. “Robin, you mean…”

Robin smiled. “I hope she doesn’t keep me waiting for too long.”

Robin didn’t even have to wait for nightfall.

That afternoon, Ella came to her. “Robin, there’s

someone called Erin who’s asking to see you.”

That was quick.

Robin smiled. “Show her the way to the first-floor study room.

“The study?”

Ella was a little surprised.

The study room was a place kept for formal occasions. Robin rarely let anyone else in.

Ella concluded that Erin was pretty special.

Chapter 244 The Truth

She couldn’t help getting more serious.

Very soon, Erin was led into the study.

Even after entering the room and seeing Robin, Erin was still in shock.

Since she had told Robin that she had no abilities, Monica had been told to take Erin directly to the employee dormitories, and she had been nowhere near Shangri-La.

When she had arrived at the dorms, she was already stunned.

Erin had never imagined that in the midst of all the chaos of the apocalypse, there would be such a clean and neat dormitory inside the zoo.

However, she was even more surprised when she saw Shangri-La, where Robin and the others were staying. It truly lived up to its name.

Both the exterior and the interior layout of the villa completely shattered her expectations.

Especially when she had come in and seen a robot vacuum gliding lazily across the floor, Erin had felt a little dazed.

She felt she hadn’t seen something so modern in years.

Although it had only been two months since the apocalypse had broken out, she felt like a century had already gone by.

The clean and neat study was brilliantly lit by the ceiling lights.

Robin leaned against the desk, tilting her chin in Erin’s direction. “Sit wherever you like.”

Erin was so nervous, she didn’t know what to do.

Finally, she gathered her courage and spoke, “Aunt Robin, I… I came to tell you…”

She took a deep breath. “Actually, I’m an ability

user too.

“Okay.”

Robin looked at her calmly. “Anything else

you

want

to

tell me?

Erin was shocked. “You… W-Why aren’t you surprised? Did you know already?”

Robin smiled. “Erin, you’ve never been good at lying. Didn’t you know?”

Erin’s face flushed red. “I… Aunt Robin, are you going to…/throw me out because I lied to you?”

“Why would I throw you out?”

Robin looked at her with a confused expression. “This is a new environment for you, so it’s a given that you’ll be cautious. At least it shows you’re smart. Now that you’ve realized this is a safe place, you’ve come to tell me the truth. That isn’t really lying. You’re smart, there’s no reason for me to throw you out.”

Erin hadn’t expected to hear that, and her eyes turned red at once. “Aunt Robin…”.

Finished

She thought that Robin would definitely be angry after hearing the truth and might even throw her out. However, she hadn’t imagined Robin would react this way.

Robin looked over at her and said seriously, “Erin, I already told you. I hate people who cause frouble. But you were only trying to protect yourself. That doesn’t count as causing trouble. In times like these, the overly kind are the first to die. I admire people like you the most because if you know how to protect yourself, you won’t become a burden to others.”

Erin stared blankly back at her. “Understood, Aunt Robin…”
