High Temperature apocalypse my husband who won 30 million with his girlfriend and unless son bigged me for alms novel

8 .

The night was deep , yet the temperature showed no signs of dropping .

In my past life , I spent my final days in the basement , cut off from the outside world .

The uncertainty of my fate was a heavy weight on my heart .

Luckily , my house was well stocked .

Theres no problem a hearty meal of hot pot cant solve ; and if it cant , two meals surely will .

Iraided the fridge , pulling out some tripe , shrimp balls , duck intestines , fatty beef , lamb , and a variety of vegetables and mushrooms .

I prepared a rich , spicy hot pot for myself .

Still feeling unsatisfied , I pulled out my tablet to watch The Office .

Just as I was enjoying my meal , my phone rang .

It was Ethan , having discovered the empty basement .

Wheres all the food ? Why didnt you get the air conditioning fixed ? Are you trying to kill me ? I bought that food with my own money , so of course , I took it .

I dont need the air conditioning , so why should I pay to fix it ? Elyse ! Youre so tight fisted ; no wonder you cant make any money ! Yeah , yeah … Im poor and proud .

Youre rich ; go buy new stuff , you fool .

He wanted to keep yelling at me , but Im no longer the woman who lets him vent without standing up for myself .

I simply hung up the call .

I watched him try calling a few more times through the surveillance feed , but I had already turned off my phone .

When he realized he couldnt reach me , he stormed into the basement looking for food and finally exploded in rage .

Theres nothing to eat here ! The AC doesnt work ! And the kids just wasting food ! I trusted you with this home , and you cant even manage this ? Chloe was left speechless by his yelling .

Now he realizes his childhood sweetheart isnt all he imagined her to be ? This is the woman he always dreamed of .

Ugh ! If theres nothing , just buy some ! My son was in the living room playing with his toy car , looking at Ethan with annoyance .

Ethan didnt have a kind look for him either : The temperatures so high outside , no delivery person will accept an order .

You talk so easily , why dont you go yourself ?! My son shrugged and pulled out a bag of chips : If theres no food , there are always snacks .

If Im hungry , Ill just ask Mom to bring something .

Ethan was so mad his face turned red .

Chloe seized the opportunity , whispering softly to Ethan .

Watching the three of them , each with their own motives on the screen , I casually cooked some duck intestines , dipping them into the spicy oil to enjoy their tender taste .
