Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Risk of Exposure

Ronan Rhodes nodded in agreement.

Sophie Thorne, who was standing nearby, saw Ronan’s reaction and silently rolled her eyes.

Ronan had been going on and on about the Arcadia Store for the past few days, and Sophie was sick of hearing about it.

’If he’s really so curious, why doesn’t he investigate what caused this apocalypse?’

Sophie was in the middle of texting with Melody Summers, so she took the opportunity to complain to her about it.

Vanassa: Ronan has been acting like he’s possessed for the last couple of days, constantly trying to investigate that online store called Arcadia.

Summertime: Huh???

Summertime: Is there a problem with that store?

Vanassa: Ronan keeps saying the store is super sketchy, like it’s run by aliens.

Vanassa: Maybe he’s afraid aliens will use the store as a staging ground to attack Terra :)

Summertime: Hahahahahahahahahaha.

Summertime: By the way, have they found anything?

Vanassa: Nope.

Vanassa: Ronan and his uncle have tried a bunch of things over the past few days, but they’ve come up with nothing.

Summertime: Oh, I see.

Summertime: Honestly, I don’t think it’s necessary to get so hung up on it. The store isn’t selling anything illegal, right? It’s just farm products.

Vanassa: I know, but that’s my hidden gem of a store. I’m honestly scared they’re going to mess with it until it disappears.

Summertime: What, they still haven’t given up on investigating it?

Vanassa: Nope.

Vanassa: They’re planning to find a chance to seize the drone used for deliveries. They want to check its brand, model, and purchase records to narrow down the search.

Summertime: Oh, I see.

Summertime: That’s pretty smart of them.

Vanassa: Ugh, let’s not talk about them. I’m stuck at the hotel every day and can’t go out. It’s so boring...

Vanassa: If only you were here too, you could keep me company.

Summertime: Once the blizzard is over, we can move back to the villa. Then we can see each other every day.

...

After putting down her phone, Melody Summers wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

She had always known her store would be investigated sooner or later, but seeing Sophie’s messages firsthand still made her heart race.

’Roman and Ronan Rhodes are so infuriating!’

’The online marketplace is full of contraband—gasoline, diesel, Molotov cocktails, crossbows... They don’t go after any of that, but they’re relentlessly investigating me for selling farm products.’

’Is there any justice left in the world?!’

When she thought about the drone Sophie had mentioned, Melody broke out in another cold sweat.
