Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Pregnant?!
Rayne spent the rest of the day downloading and watching movies and TV shows. She wanted to get a head start on stockpiling all sorts of entertainment for the future.

The next morning, Rayne showered and got dressed, ready to meet with the delivery men. She placed the couch and bed into her system, leaving the apartment completely empty.

About thirty minutes later, the delivery truck arrived, and the workers began to carry the new furniture into the house.

Rayne ordered everything from new sofas, armchairs, bar stools, bed frames, mattresses, outdoor furniture, rugs, to small décor items.

A few hours later, her empty house became beautifully furnished with quality furniture. The overall design followed the ‘French country’ theme, with lots of neutral colors and a few pops of color.

Part of the small décor items Rayne had ordered included beautiful porcelain vases. There were a few of these vases spread around the house in various sizes, and Rayne had filled them with fresh-cut flowers.

The atmosphere in her house was now very calming and cheerful.

Before Rayne did anything crazy, she went around and stored all of the new items into her system. This way, if she spilled a glass of red wine on her new linen couch, she could easily replace it without worry.

Krissy rushed home from the mall angrily. She was feeling very territorial about Dillon and couldn’t get the image of Rayne shopping in the baby section out of her head.

“I need to find a way to deal with her before that baby is born,” she said menacingly.

She entered Dillon’s apartment, unlocking it with a spare key he had given her. Looking around the apartment, she realized that he wasn’t home, most likely out at a bar with his buddies.

She placed her shopping bags on the ground and sat down to think about how to keep Dillon with her.

“I need to prevent him from going out to look for that vixen,” she thought. She spent a few minutes thinking, but only one solution came to mind.

“I know the thing Dillon hates the most is being lied to, and that woman clearly lied about being on birth control. Even with me, he’s very strict when it comes to taking the pill on time! That’s it!! He must not know she’s pregnant!!” she muttered to herself.

Krissy picked up her purse and pulled out her cell phone to text Dillon.

[Hey babe! I’m back from the mall. Where are you? I want to come hang out kissy face]

A few minutes later, her phone buzzed.

[I’m at the usual spot, come meet me]

Smiling at Dillon’s quick reply, Krissy grabbed her keys and left for the bar where Dillon normally spent time.

When she entered the bar, she spotted Dillon right away. The bar was somewhat empty since it was still early, with only a few people sitting around.

Krissy noticed that the person Dillon was hanging out with was one of his newer ‘friends.’ She frowned when she saw them together. There was something about these new friends that made her feel very uneasy.

Still, Krissy was determined to expose Rayne’s schemes to Dillon, so she walked over and sat down beside him.

Dillon was already slightly drunk by the time Krissy made it over, and couldn’t help but stare at her chest. Krissy purposely wore a very low cut shirt, knowing that Dillon enjoyed looking at her melons.

“Hey babe, you’ll never guess who I ran into at the mall today.”, said Krissy, trying her best to sound seductive.

Dillon glanced over to her, “Who?”.

“That dirty slut who was pestering you at that bar downtown a few weeks ago”.

Dillon’s attention was now fully on Krissy. He knew she was referring to Rayne! His eyes darkened, remembering how she threatened him when he broke into her apartment.

“Was she there with anyone?”, he asked, probing to see if she was seeing someone else.

Krissy saw his dark expression and was elated! “No, she was there alone. But I found out a big secret!”.

Dillon stared at Krissy waiting for her to explain.

“She’s pregnant! She must’ve lied to you about being on birth control and wants to secretly give birth to your child so that she could extort you for money in the future!”, exclaimed Krissy excitedly!

Dillon’s mind went blank!

Rayne is pregnant? I told her that she’s my woman…HOW DARE SHE SLEEP WITH ANOTHER MAN!

Dillon’s blood boiled with fury! She dare do something like that behind his back?

“I’m going to teach her a lesson!”, he fumed.

Krissy was in heaven seeing Dillon’s furious expression. She was completely convinced that Dillon was angry because Rayne lied about being on birth control!

Ha! Serves you right! Too bad your little scheme will no longer work!

Dillon was so angry that he was clenching his jaw.

Looks like I’ll have to pay you another visit sooner or later. And when I do, I’ll make you regret sleeping around with other men!

A few weeks went by very quickly. Rayne was busy with her self-defense and marksmanship classes, excelling in both. She had also made multiple trips to the library to continue chipping away at storing the books.

She now had around half of the library’s books in her space. Another thing that was slowly stockpiling was the downloads for various movies, TV shows, music, and video games that could be played offline.

She had acquired a number of high-capacity external hard drives and used them to hold the movies, music, and TV shows. This way, she could make copies if she ever needed to.

Some of the other items Rayne managed to store included luxury skincare, makeup, hand soaps, household cleaning supplies, feminine hygiene products, and basic medical supplies.

The medical supplies were obtained at her local pharmacy. They were all basic over-the-counter items, such as bandages, pain reliever pills, fever reducer pills, common antibiotics, burn creams, pregnancy tests, eye drops, various stomach relief medicines, etc.

Although Rayne had already begun the shooting part of her marksmanship training, she had only managed to store a single bullet.

Yasmin was a very good instructor and was constantly watching Rayne, making sure she was handling the firearm carefully and in the proper stance. This made it difficult for Rayne to store the pistol in her system, but she was patient, knowing that the right time would come eventually.

Rayne had also met up with Ella a few times. They mostly went out to eat at new restaurants while discussing various aspects of their lives. Of course, Rayne took advantage of each new restaurant and always ordered to-go boxes. Ella even made fun of her, calling her a glutton — which Rayne couldn’t refute!

Ella was still passionately designing the office building for REN Corp. and kept mentioning how wonderful the project manager on her team was. Although Rayne didn’t say anything, she felt like a romance was blossoming soon.

Rayne was happy to have a good friend like Ella! She enjoyed having a friend to go out with occasionally and gossip. The more time they spent together, the more they got along!
