What a clever plan!

I was about to lose it when suddenly the door clicked open.

Jennifer walked in, looking down, and stood in front of me.

"Honey, I was wrong! Gavin told me everything. In our previous life, I did you wrong," she said.

Jennifer reached for my hand, trying to say she was sorry.

I pulled away. "Don't call me that. I never asked you to marry me. Whoever wants to be the fool can be, but it won't be me!"

Jennifer's face was streaked with tears as she followed me.

She even pulled a bank card out of her pocket. "Take my money, all of it, Wesley. Please, just give me another chance!"

Gavin quickly grabbed our arms, his voice calm and convincing, "Wesley, I think Jen really gets that she messed up. Let's give her another shot, okay?

"The scorching apocalypse is coming. Why not let her clean up around the house and take care of you? How does that sound? Jen, why aren't you already getting Wesley a Coke?"

Jennifer nodded over and over, rushing to get a Coke from the fridge. She promised loudly that she would wash clothes, cook, and even scrub the toilet.

If I had not been reborn, I might have actually listened to them.

However, I remember it all too well.

Before my soul came back, I saw Jennifer and Gavin chowing down on my flesh.

It sure looked tasty!

Yet, Jennifer and Gavin were not quite happy.

"It's too dry when roasted. Should have bled it while it was still alive, save the blood for drinking."

"Why didn't you say that earlier? What a waste!"

I took a deep breath, grabbed the bank card, and forced a smile. "If you're truly sorry, then I'll give you one more chance."

I took the bank card and left to keep stocking up on supplies.

Gavin stayed behind, claiming he would watch Jennifer for me.

Little did they know, I had already set up tiny cameras and recorders around the house while Gavin was busy moving stuff.

The moment I walked out the door, Jennifer's expression soured instantly.

"Hmph! I gave him all of my savings! What kind of dumb plan is this?"

I chuckled coldly. That card Jennifer had was from me, and whether the money on it was truly hers, well, that is up for debate!

Gavin quickly wrapped his arms around her, trying to cheer her up, "Babe, don't be down!

"This is all so we can have a better life when the world ends. Soon, all of his money and possessions will be ours."

They were a truly wicked couple!

Fuming with anger, I kicked a rock along the road, only to trip and hurt my nose.

My nose would not quit bleeding, the blood staining the jade pendant my grandpa had handed down to me, a cherished heirloom in our family.

Suddenly, I felt like I was in a vast empty area, as huge as six football fields.

Was that a storage space?

The kind of thing I had only heard about in tales was right there before my eyes.

I completely forgot about my fall and the nosebleed and dashed into the supermarket to explore that space.

I just stared at the bread on the shelf, and whoosh! It vanished into thin air.

To retrieve the bread, I just had to think about it, and there it was, back on the floor in front of me.

I experimented with other items too. Even the ice cream remained frozen when I removed it.

"It's like the universe has my back!

"I've been given a fresh start in a crumbling world, but I've got this storage space for supplies!"

I headed straight to the warehouse manager of a large store and informed him that I wanted to purchase all the food and water he had.

The manager gawked at me like I was crazy.

I slammed Jennifer's bank card down in front of him.

"Charge it!"

I put most of the supplies I bought into the space, enough to last me for years of fun and games.

The rest, I had delivered to my house using several tricycles.

By the time the last tricycle got there, I was feeling the heat.

The tricycle had barely stopped outside when the tire went flat, cooked by the hot ground.

I scowled, realizing the scorching end of the world had started sooner than expected.

Gavin and Jennifer's days of bliss were about to be over before they know it!
