Chapter 167 A Lifetime of Servitude
“Crazy? Me? How am I crazy?”
Finished
Dennis let out a low chuckle, his eyes full of scorn. “I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. We’ve known each other for years, so why is it that no matter what happens, you always have to come out on top of me?
“Back in school, your grades were better. After we started working, you made more money. And now that the apocalypse is here, you’re still more valued by the people in charge.
“Wayne, are you doing this on purpose? Just to mess with me?”
Wayne never expected all that resentment had been building up inside Dennis.
His eyes widened in shock. “But… you never said anything about this…”
Dennis looked at him like he’d just heard the funniest joke in the world. “Never said anything? Hahahaha!”
He burst out laughing. “Wayne, how are you still this naïve? How exactly was I supposed to tell you that? You wanted me to say I’ve been jealous of you all along?”
Wayne fell silent.
With a cold snort, he continued, “You brought this on yourself. Do you know how many times I’ve tried to listance myself from you growing up? How many times I’ve wanted to cut ties completely? But you kept coming back, again and again, trying to make up with me. I didn’t have the heart to reject you, so I kept etting you back in.
I actually thought you really saw me as a friend. I was such an idiot. After all this time, how did I not see it?
You didn’t want a friend, you wanted a comparison piece. Someone by your side to make you look better. As long as I’m around you, I’ll always be the one who comes up short!
Wayne, that’s what you wanted, isn’t it? But let me tell you, your little plan ends here. Do you think I’m till the same fool who blindly followed you around, letting you use me without even realizing it? You re wrong!”
Because he was so stunned, Wayne forgot to struggle for a moment.
His lips parted, disbelief written all over his face. “I… Dennis, I never thought that way
‘Bullshit!”

Dennis’s smile vanished instantly, his gaze turning vicious. “You dare say that’s not what you think
“Then why is it that from the moment we were kids, you always had to be better than me? Why is it that every time you achieved something, you had to come show it off right in front of me?
Wayne shook his head. “I just wanted to share my happiness with you
“Shut up!”

Dennis finally snapped. “All these years, you’ve been hiding behind that innocent face, fooling me–and everyone else around me–into thinking how good you were to me!
“Even now, after getting into the base, you still outshine me in everything. Do you have any idea how much I hated you when I saw you there? Why didn’t the zombies just tear you apart?
“I worked so hard to get into this base. Why do you get to walk in so easily, and then immediately earn the higher–ups‘ favor?”
Wayne muttered, “So today… this was all planned… You’ve been unhappy with me for a long time, so you used this method to make Serena think I was bitten by a zombie… just to get rid of me?”
‘Yes.”
Dennis lifted his chin. “Tell me, what part of me is worse than you? Once you’re dead, everything you have will be mine. It should have been mine all along.
You just stole it from me.”
Wayne closed his eyes in pain.
But Dennis had already bent down and grabbed him by the back of his collar.
What are you doing?” he asked in a panic.
What am I doing?”
Dennis let out a sinister laugh. “I’m sending you straight to hell. Did you think I’d kill you myself?
No, I’m not that stupid. Sure, people think you were bitten, but what if they start asking questions? No. I’ll urn you into a real zombie. That way, the plan is flawless.”
Wayne struggled desperately, but in his current state, he was no match for Dennis.
