Seeing how his eyes wouldn't move away from her bosom, she teased him, "Mr., who do you think is more beautiful between us, me or my sister?"

"Hehe, you two are top-notch beauties, so you're both very beautiful," Kael replied with a stern gaze.

The sisters laughed, covering their mouths, and Kael found himself enchanted by their beauty.

"My name is Charlotte, what about yours, Mr.?" asked Charlotte with a gentle smile.

He shook his head and said, "You can call me Kael. Nice to meet you, Charlotte."

"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Kael," they both said as they shook hands.

He felt a pleasant sensation holding her fair yet tender hand, but he also felt a sense of familiarity after their touch.

"System, is she a zombie?"

"No, she isn't. She's a variant."

"Variant..."

Just like Kael, Charlotte frowned and fell into deep thought.

"It's my first time meeting a variant. Compared to the pressure I felt after touching him, I felt very weak in front of him," Charlotte murmured inwardly.

"Both of you, what are you doing?" Elizabeth asked after seeing that both Kael and her sister were standing in a daze.

Upon hearing Elizabeth's voice, both of them snapped back to reality and released each other's hands.

"Sorry," said Kael.

"No, Mr. Kael, I'm sorry," said Charlotte with an apologetic look.

"Okay, Miss Charlotte, I want to make a deal with you," Kael proposed.

"Oh, what kind of deal is it? What are you offering me to make a deal?" asked Charlotte, curious.

"I will offer you this," Kael took out a pack of bread and placed it in front of her.

"A pack of bread?" Charlotte's eyes widened.

"It's not expired," Kael added with a calm smile.

"What?" Charlotte and her sister, Elizabeth, both stood up with shocked expressions.

"Can I... Can I taste it?" they asked in shaky voices.

"Of course," said Kael, folding his hands and showing his bare teeth.

If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

Charlotte hurriedly took the pack of bread and opened it. Both sisters took a slice and smelled it in unison. "Smells so nice."

Then they took a bite at the same time. "Hmm... Mmm... This texture... This sweetness... This slice of bread is just like the bread our grandma used to tell us about when we were kids."

Tears slid down their faces as they entered a dreamland while chewing the bread.

"Hmm, this is just bread, right? Do they have to react like this just from eating a slice of bread?" Kael was left speechless but continued to enjoy watching the happiness in the sisters' eyes.

It took them a few minutes to come back to their senses. Charlotte looked at Kael with a pleading expression and asked, "Can I have this bread pack?"

"Of course, just treat it as our meeting gift," said Kael with an awkward smile.

"Thank you... thank you so much, Mr. Kael," Charlotte reached out her hand to grasp his, holding it tightly with a grateful look on her face.

"Ahem..." Elizabeth coughed, looking at her sister.

"Oh," Charlotte realized she was holding his hand and immediately released it, embarrassment coloring her face.

But as soon as she let go of his hand and withdrew hers, Elizabeth jumped on him, hugging him tightly. "Kael, thank you for giving us this bread. It's the first time I've ever tasted something so delicious in my life."

"Haha, as long as you like it," said Kael, feeling the smooth texture of her hips in his hands.

"I love it!" exclaimed Elizabeth.

"I also love holding you there," said Kael, gently rubbing his hands on her hips.

Elizabeth's face turned beet red as she felt Kael's hands moving on her hips. She immediately loosened her grip around his neck, jumped back, and stood on her feet.

Charlotte moved close to her sister and reached out her hand to pinch her ear, feigning anger. "Do you still think you're a child? Why can't you act like a grown-up?"

"Ouch... Ouch... I just hugged him. Why are you exaggerating?" Elizabeth asked, her face showing pain.

"Hmph, I'll deal with you later," Charlotte reprimanded, then turned to Kael.

"Mr. Kael, I'm sorry for her behavior. Even though she's grown up, she acts like a kid sometimes. Please don't take offense," Charlotte said apologetically.

"No, it's okay. I really like it... Ahem, I mean, I like her childish behavior," said Kael, rubbing his hands.

"So, Mr. Kael, let's talk about the deal. What do you want from us in return?" asked Charlotte.

"I want firearms and ores," Kael asked with a huge grin on his face.

"Deal," Charlotte immediately agreed. There was no way she was going to miss out on such a great deal.

Do you know what makes you rich in this apocalyptic world? Firearms? No. Weapons? No. Money? No. Only food makes you rich in this apocalyptic world. Since she could exchange the insignificant firearms and metal for food, it was a great deal, especially considering the food wasn't expired yet.

"Here, take this box as my advance payment. I want 50 firearms and 20 thousand rounds of ammunition. I'll be back in two days. I don't tolerate mistakes, so I hope you won't make any," said Kael, releasing an intimidating aura.

Feeling his imposing presence, Elizabeth's body trembled, causing her to lose her balance and fall back onto the sofa.

Charlotte raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and said with a forced smile, "Of course, I'll ensure there are no mistakes until our deal is completed."

"I thought he was an easygoing and carefree guy, but no, he's dangerous," Charlotte murmured inwardly, her brows furrowed.

"Okay, I'll take my leave," said Kael as he walked towards the entrance of the building, the two sisters following behind.

As he stepped outside, he paused when he saw someone.

"Oh, it's you, Sniper Bro! Long time no see. How have you been?" asked Kael, a look of familiarity on his face as if greeting an old friend.

The sniper was petrified on the spot, with a shocked expression on his face.

"Oh, do you two know each other?" asked Charlotte, surprise evident on her face.
