I'm the Villainess in the Apocalypse -
Chapter 440. Play Along
Chapter 440: 440. Play Along
Butler Henry was standing not far from where Old Master Daniels was standing. He was glad that they didn’t have to fight, but he felt that Old Master Daniels was a bit melancholic right now.
"Old Master..."
"I’m fine." Old Master Daniels shook his head. "These big mutated animals have retreated. Call my son."
"Yes, Old Master."
Old Master Daniels knew that Uncle Darien and his nephew, Dylan, were strong. But even if they were strong, anything could happen when they were facing these big mutated animals. Thus, Old Master Daniels wished that they would be fine.
Hopefully the Heaven would be kinder to him and let him reunite with his family.
The call was connected.
"Uncle Henry? Why do you call me?" Uncle Darien’s voice could be heard from the phone. Butler Henry had set it to hands free mode to make sure Old Master Daniels could hear it too.
Old Master Daniels heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his son’s voice. However, his tone turned stern. "What are you doing outside for a long time? A lot of people are died in the central area!"
"I heard about it and Matthias will be the one to handle it," Uncle Darien quickly replied.
They divided their work and it was Uncle Matthias who will be responsible for the central area.
"Do your work and go back earlier!"
"Yes, Father!"
After saying a few more words, the call was disconnected and Old Master Daniels felt much calmer. He was a bit curious about the reasons and so on, but he knew that there was no point in asking his son now.
Uncle Darien was busy and it would be better to wait until Uncle Darien has some time before asking more questions.
...
Other side, Mason Family
The mess from the big mutated animals was slowly being cleaned up. Sean was busy dealing with his relatives who wanted to take advantage and pushed them to the forefront.
This way, they would have to work for him and he was the one who benefited in the end.
Even if his uncle and aunts were angry, there was nothing much they could do but to accept because Sean was much stronger than them and still kept a lot of liquid from the research institute for recovery.
They were all beaten senseless.
And later on, Brenda somehow joined in the fun and collaborated with Sean, pressing them down.
They could only swallow all the losses and accepted the arrangement.
"You’re going to help me?" Sean glanced at Brenda after the day’s activity was done. He knew that Brenda was not so kind and that her father was actually quite powerful and had already started to take over the power that belonged to Mr. Davis.
Would his daughter be so kind to help him out of charity?
He doubted it.
Besides, he still remembered what Derek told him and that the man promised to send him the evidences after it was sorted to him.
"Why not?" Brenda asked with a faint smile. "You’re more pleasant to work with compared with the other people, Mr. Sean."
Pleasant to work with?
Sean glanced at Brenda coldly and didn’t answer her. He looked at the people around him and nodded.
"Up to you."
Brenda looked at Sean, who was still walking away proudly and snorted. She believed that soon, he would kneel down under her and follow her willingly.
But she couldn’t be so hasty because Sean was not stupid and would definitely sense that something was wrong if she was not careful enough. Brenda didn’t want her schemes to be destroyed in an instant just because of impatience.
There were still some events that she could use in the future.
Before that, it would be better for her to spend more time with him~.
...
Dylan and Anna’s side.
The two of them were relatively idle during this period of time. Or more like, they chose not to do anything.
But looking at the message Uncle Darien sent to them, they knew that their deeds had been revealed to the soldiers because many people had seen Dylan and Anna made their moves.
The fact that the two of them were awakened of ice and plants abilities slowly spread.
It wouldn’t take that long before many people knew about this.
"I guess it’s impossible for us to escape from this now, huh?" Dylan looked at the message in his phone helplessly.
Anna chuckled. "Well, the Davis Family and Mason Family will definitely know about our abilities. Do you think they will come forward and try to get our help or something?"
Get their help?
Dylan glanced at Anna and slowly shook his head.
He knew very well that even if the research institute wanted to, they would not blatantly step forward and ask for their help when they were not part of City A Base’s official position.
Official position...
Thinking about this matter, Dylan’s eyes narrowed slightly. "Sister Anna, do you think it’s good for me to be part of the official in City A Base?"
Anna heard Dylan’s words and was dumbfounded.
In the past, Dylan would never think about becoming an official or anything like that. After all, he was more of a business minded man rather than a politician.
Dylan himself also didn’t really have good opinion of those politician whom he had seen in the news or other social medias.
But...
"If you really want to, I’ll support you," Anna replied. "You just have to remember that if you become an official here, your moves will be monitored heavily and that you will be connected to the base."
Monitored and connected to the base...
Dylan smiled faintly. It was the price for power, which he himself understood very well. But rather than doing nothing when others wanted to do something, wouldn’t it be better for him to do what he could do?
Becoming part of the official was one of the few ways for him to continue surviving.
