Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 119

Ella’s heart sank when she heard Kenzo’s words. She quickly jumped out of her car and ran forward. "Where is the injured man?!" she asked desperately.

The man they were carrying was not her father, and her stomach couldn’t help but sink at the possibility that it was her father who was heavily injured.

Michael saw the desperation in Ella’s eyes and answered her, "Run down the main hall, then take a left. He’s in one of the rooms being bandaged by our group leader."

Ella ran inside as soon as she got the location, praying that her father was okay on the way.

She saw a handsome man carrying another person out of the room and sprinted forward.

"Dad! Dad?!" she cried, running into the room.

Julian and Lenny saw Ella speed past them, unsure of who she was. They were on their way to the van, carrying another unconscious man.

Ella walked into the room and gasped at the bloody sight. She saw that the floors and walls had many blood splatters, painting a picture of what had transpired here.

She saw a burly woman carefully bandaging a man, making him look like a mummy due to the number of wounds he had.

"Dad!" Ella cried out. She couldn’t see the man’s face clearly but assumed this was her father since he wasn’t one of the other two men who had been carried to the van.

Tears began pouring down her cheeks as she began to sob.

"Ella? Why are you here?" asked Reginald, seeing his daughter standing in the room, distressed.

He had stepped out with Rayne to find more bandages when he saw his daughter crying in the room.

Ella turned when she heard his familiar voice, seeing her dad standing in front of her. "Dad! You’re okay! I was so worried!" she ran into his arms and started to cry.

Reginald hugged his daughter, patting her on the head like he had always done whenever she came to him crying since childhood.

"I’m here, I’m okay. It’s all okay now," he whispered, trying to calm her down.

"When I saw the bloody room and the man on the floor... I... I thought it was you," she cried, tightening her hug around him.

"Everything is okay. That man will be okay too," said Reginald calmly as he continued to pat her gently.

He had never expected that she would come looking for him, but the fact that she had made his heart warm.

"Look who I found," he said, trying to cheer her up.

Ella lifted her head from his chest and looked behind him, spotting another familiar figure.

"Rayne! Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed. The sight of her best friend helped her calm down almost instantly.

"Ella! You came here alone?" asked Rayne. She was surprised by her friend’s bravery.

Ella nodded as she wiped her eyes. "I wanted—"

"Well, since we’re already here, why not go around and find some things to bring back? I’d like to bring something nice for my wife as an apology for making her worry," said Reginald quietly.

After Rayne and Ella finished catching up, they walked over to join the guys, hearing the proposal to scavenge for items.

"Yes! That’s a great idea, Dad!" Ella said cheerfully. She was hoping to find some appliances, while her father wanted to find furniture items. He didn’t want his lovely wife to suffer sitting only in plastic fold-out chairs.

"You did good leaving the trailer on. We can bring back some larger pieces of furniture now," said Reginald. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

The four of them walked to an apartment building across the street and began to look around. The building was only half intact but was fully abandoned.

Rayne pretended to find a sledgehammer in an alleyway and used it to break into the locked apartments so that they could scavenge the items inside.

The furniture was nowhere near as luxurious as it was in the building where Lenny lived, but some of the pieces were in good condition and made from solid wood.

They all worked together to bring down as many pieces as they could fit on the trailer, quickly filling it with a small couch, a table, and a mini fridge Ella begged her dad to bring.

Seeing her adorable pleading face, he couldn’t say no and finally agreed.

He also found a number of paints, artist’s colored pencils, drawing paper, and canvas in an apartment that clearly belonged to an artist. He didn’t think twice before stuffing the vehicle with these supplies for his wife, using up most of the precious space.

Rayne walked over to the car with a big box of food supplies, pretending to have gotten them from one of the small corner stores in the area. She wanted to make sure that her friend could at least eat her fill.
