Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: The Shameless Father

Seeing this, Seraphina Sullivan barely hesitated. She immediately stepped forward to intercept Crystal Lynn.

Her voice was quick and clear. "I’ll go with you. I can help look after your sister, so you’ll be free to... handle things."

Crystal Lynn stopped in her tracks, looking at Seraphina Sullivan with some surprise.

She wasn’t close with Seraphina Sullivan; they had only done business twice. She never expected the other woman to offer help at a time like this.

But the calm and supportive look in Seraphina’s eyes seemed genuine. Besides, her offer to look after Freya Lynn would truly free Crystal Lynn from any worries.

Time was short, leaving no room for second thoughts.

Crystal Lynn gave Seraphina a deep look. Without any unnecessary pleasantries, she uttered two words:

"Thank you."

An agreement was reached.

Seraphina Sullivan took the hand of Freya Lynn, who was still shaken but gripping her hand tightly.

Sean Chandler followed silently by Seraphina’s side.

The group moved quickly toward the direction where Crystal Lynn had parked her RV.

Their group was not a quiet one, and Freya Lynn’s earlier cries had already drawn attention. Now, a crowd of onlookers had started to follow them.

In the oppressive atmosphere of the safe zone, this sort of family drama—involving morality, betrayal, and conflict, with the added possibility of a physical fight—was undoubtedly a potent stimulant.

People whispered and pointed, trailing behind from a distance, fully displaying the unshakeable human instinct for rubbernecking that persists in any environment.

「Meanwhile」

Damian Lynn, the father who had abandoned Crystal and Freya Lynn, was standing smugly in front of a reasonably intact RV. He had his arm wrapped around an attractive young woman whose flashy attire was completely out of place.

He puffed out his chest, boasting wildly as he spoke:

"What do you think, baby? Your man here has got what it takes!"

"I knew those two money-losing baggage had something good stashed away. See? Didn’t I get it? With this RV and the food inside, we won’t have to worry about our future anymore!"

His face was filled with the smug satisfaction of having taken advantage of someone, showing not a shred of a father’s shame.

The young woman snuggled into his embrace, cooing her flattery, "Buck, you’re the best! I’m so lucky to be with you. When our son is born, I’ll make sure he dotes on you!"

As she spoke, the woman gently caressed her still-flat stomach.

Damian Lynn was ecstatic from the praise. He waved his hand magnanimously. "Mhm! You just focus on giving me a son to carry on the family line, and you’ll be set for life! Anything you want, you just tell me, and I’ll get it for you!"

The woman’s eyes darted around, just as she was about to ask for something else.

Just then, a furious shout that seemed squeezed through clenched teeth shattered their smug conversation.

"DA-MI-AN—LYNN—!!!"

Crystal Lynn’s figure appeared in the distance. She approached step by step, her gaze ice-cold and locked squarely on Damian Lynn.

The White Spirit Snake on her wrist was now fully awake. It had raised the upper half of its body, its scarlet tongue flicking rapidly and letting out a heart-stopping "HISS HISS."

Its cold, vertical pupils were also focused on the man who had abandoned his family.

The large crowd of rubberneckers formed a semicircle behind them, holding their breath in anticipation.
