Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 496

Chapter 496: Chapter 496: The Other Reincarnator

Hearing this from Sylvia Lancaster, Elaine Hughes frowned in displeasure.

Seeing the look on her face, Simon Lancaster worried Elaine Hughes might give Sylvia a hard time. He quickly stepped in to smooth things over. "Mom, calm down. It’s probably just not time yet. The stone hasn’t been washed out by the floodwaters. In her past life, it also took Sylvia a few months to find the space!"

Watching Simon Lancaster defend Sylvia like this, Elaine Hughes felt a surge of anger lodge in her chest—

’How did I not see it in my past life? My foolish son was completely mesmerized by that little bitch, Sylvia!’

’They were brother and sister for over twenty years, yet they actually got together! It’s a disgrace! A stain on our family’s name!’

Elaine Hughes wanted nothing more than to slap them both hard across the face, but she knew she couldn’t afford to have a complete falling-out right now. In the end, she forced herself to swallow her anger.

Simon Lancaster quickly turned to comfort Sylvia. "Sylvia, Mom’s just anxious. Don’t take it to heart!"

Sylvia Lancaster managed a faint smile. At first, she had been happy that the Elaine Hughes from her past life had returned; after all, her mother from that life had loved her so much. But she was also the one who had orchestrated the incident at The Nimbus Hotel. Sylvia knew their mother-daughter relationship could never go back to the way it was...

At this thought, Sylvia felt a pain like a knife twisting in her heart. She would rather her mother from the past life had never returned. That way, the mother who had always loved her wouldn’t have to see her at her worst. She could then comfort herself with the idea that the mother who loved her still existed in a Parallel World...

While Sylvia was lost in thought, Elaine Hughes snapped irritably, "How can I not be anxious? The rain today is even heavier than yesterday’s! The drains and the toilet are probably going to back up again!"

Recalling the "battle" she’d endured last night, Elaine Hughes felt like she was going to lose her mind. She would never forget the feeling of that filth touching her skin for the rest of her life!

’It was so disgusting!’

Thinking of this, Elaine Hughes said through gritted teeth, "That’s it, I can’t stay in this damn dump for one more day! This is no way for people to live!"

Elaine Hughes didn’t understand why things had turned out like this in this life. She just wanted to go back to her past life, back to her well-furnished apartment in The Metropolis Residences!

Hearing this, Sylvia Lancaster suppressed her sorrow and said to Simon Lancaster and Elaine Hughes, "Mom, Brother, I came back today to tell you about this exact thing. We should be able to move out of here soon!"

As Simon Lancaster and Elaine Hughes stared at her in confusion, Sylvia Lancaster said seriously, "The Sheffield Family has already agreed to my marriage with Winston Sheffield. While Dad and Xiaoyuan are still asleep, let’s go visit Mr. Felix Ford!"

******

The "Mr. Felix Ford" Sylvia Lancaster mentioned also lived in this low-income housing complex, coincidentally right above the Lancaster family. Sylvia, Simon Lancaster, and Elaine Hughes navigated around the disaster victims in the hallway, climbed the stairs, and knocked on Felix Ford’s door.

After a moment, the door opened to reveal a middle-aged man. He looked to be in his thirties or forties, with deep-set features and a square-shaped face.

Anyone who had seen "Mr. Caelus" would have found him familiar, because his face looked very much like a younger version of "Mr. Caelus."

This younger version of "Mr. Caelus," Felix Ford, was in fact Mr. Caelus himself.

Previously, to better attract followers, increase the credibility of his "Mr. Caelus" persona, and leave himself an escape route, Felix Ford had dyed his hair white, worn a fake beard, and used makeup to appear as if he were in his fifties or sixties.

Since the apocalypse began, Felix Ford had used the identity of "Mr. Caelus" to carry out numerous criminal activities.

But because he was a cautious man, he had his subordinates carry out most of his dirty work and was not directly involved, which is why he was never caught by the police.
