Chapter 677: 619 Friendly Catastrophe

"I realized the agent had bought the house from me for free. He wanted to create a mega mall at that place.

Soon I found out that the eviction letter was actually sent by him, and he was behind everything. When the cops had arrived to check the house a week before, they had found all the legal papers— which they had taken with them.

And the agent got their hands on them. He had connections, money, and the government on his side. He wanted to destroy the town and make his dream city. And if you hadn't guessed it by now… yes, all the fortune they had taken from this house was given to that agent.

The same night after winning the case, they brought bulldozers to destroy the house. I tried to stop them, but they were ready to run me over. And then… something crazy happened.

The clouds started roaring, and the lightning rumbled across the sky. Rain poured down, and the weather turned dreadful. A whirlwind destroyed everything on its way— or so one would think- but there was no damage to most of the houses.

When the storm ended, all the bulldozers, machines, and equipment they had brought were completely ripped apart. Some of them were even carried along with the whirlwind and were never found.

The people who were in the vehicles and machines ran away and never set foot in the town again. It had caused a huge uproar for everyone in the state. Media and scientists came every day to find out the truth behind the sudden storm.

They said it was impossible that not even one person was injured and nothing was damaged beyond repair by a top-tier storm. The scientist even made a documentary on it in which they said it was due to the history of the town and the civilization that had built this town in a way that it could withstand even an apocalyptic catastrophe.

However, for some reason, the documentary was later deleted, and everyone stopped talking about it. Even the scientists who had made the documentary said that everything was fake. And then they said that the storm was minor in the public announcement.

Even the agent who wanted to make his dream city stepped down from his own project. Perhaps, he was forced to do so. Each and every government-related and regulated building or post was removed from the town, and it was left untouched.

No cops ever set foot in the town. Of course, they could come and go, but off duty or for other purposes. No crime ever happened… no major crime like murder and r*pe."

'That's probably when Cassandra was going to come here. She told me something had come up, and she never came here. Who would have thought even that would be connected with this,' Rudy uttered inwardly.

"And then the haunted tunnel incident started happening, and everything stopped. This town had become cursed for some people. But fortunately, there were other ways to leave and enter this town.

As for that agent… he asked for the monthly rent as I was living in 'his' house. I didn't want to drag the matter or make it worse since he still had the higher-ups backing him up. If he wanted, he could actually kick me out of the house.

I soon started working different jobs to make money. It was hard. I didn't know the value of hard work until I got my first pay and bought food. Sure, I had worked before, but all that was just a side hustle to get more money. I never worked for a living.

Elenor helped me in my hard times, and she was always with me, like a best friend. She would hook me up with new jobs every week and make sure I didn't feel uncomfortable or too stressed.

And you would be busy playing with Eric, Erika, and Alice, so I didn't have to worry about it. Soon, I started enjoying my life again, and everything was back on track. As you grew up more, your needs and expenses increased, so that bastard agent also increased his rent price.

At that time, Anthony helped me out with your school-related expenses." She smiled and said, "I was being helped by people here and there and that was the best experience of my life. I felt like I was blessed to have such people as my friends."

"Now to my fourth question; If you knew about me and my powers... if you knew everything, why did you decide to marry Joe? I can't think of any reason why you would do that.

Sure, you said you two only married as Lucy and I could have other parents and also solve the money problems we were having, but I don't think that's the actual reason," he asked with a judging look on his face.

"Because of the family photo," Rebecca shrugged.

"..." Rudy stared at Rebecca with a dumbfounded look on his face.

"What?" Don't look at me like that. I never wanted to marry anyone, but the family picture was proof that I had to marry Joe. If I didn't, I would end up changing the future, which could mess up your plan or whatever you want to call it."

"Paradox much?"

"Wait…" Rebecca raised her brow and asked, "You don't seriously think that I married Joe because I loved him or anything, right?"

"No, of course not." Rudy shook his head and said, "As if I would let that happen."

"..."

'Did I say that out loud?' Rudy gulped down nervously and glanced at Rebecca, who was giving him a judging stare.

Rudy immediately asked, "As for my fifth and the last question— which you might already be anticipating."

After a brief pause, Rudy calmly asked, "You stopped mentioning Elena from the early part of your story. I had entrusted Elena to take care of you and Jessica, so what happened to her?"

"I think it's better if you hear her part of the story from her. She has also been waiting for you to remember everything."
