18 Floors Above the Apocalypse novel Chapter 75

The dream was abruptly shattered, and Sadie's newfound illusion was broken. But since she dared to call Stella out, she was already prepared.

"Why can't you share some of your possessions with me? It's better than being found out by others and being overwhelmed by them. If that happens, you'll be in deep trouble."

Hearing her presumptuous request, Stella couldn't help but laugh. "No, you don't understand me. I'm a hot-tempered person who acts impulsively without considering the consdequences. What threatens me about you coming empty-handed?"

Sadie's heart skipped a beat. She was immediately on guard and warned, "Stella, since I dared to invite you out, I obviously have a backup plan. If you dare to harm a single hair on my head, you won't be leaving this place today!"

Stella laughed at the threat, as if a cat was playing with a dying mouse. She was in such a good mood. "For a bag of ramen, you're willing to sleep with two or three men. Don't tell me you've hired a bunch of gangsters to ambush me. They charge a lot; you won't be able to afford their appearance fee even if you sleep with them day and night for a month."

Sadie, feeling the blow, bristled with anger. "Stella, what's so great about you? Is it just because you have the Arcadia? Without the Arcadia, you'd be worse off than me. You're just a cheat and think you're so powerful? With your looks, I doubt you could even be exchanged for a bag of ramen."

"I'm sorry, indeed I'm not as capable as you. Anyone can have their way with you."

In Stella’s previous life, Arcadia was stolen, she'd much rather starve to death than deal with the devil, while Sadie, even with the Arcadia, still relied on her body to make exchanges for resources, using Arcadia to steal theirs.

Stella sneered, "You need to understand, who can make the choice now."

Sadie gritted her teeth. "Fine, I didn't bring anyone with me, but if I can't go back today, the news of you having Arcadia will be exposed."

"Really?" Knowing her selfish greed, Stella didn't fear her at all. "Don't tell me you told Hector, or those men."

Sadie was silent.

"They not only share you and Amanda, but also let you two go out and use your bodies to exchange for food. If you really trusted them, you wouldn't have come here alone today."

If she did, they would have surrounded and threatened her to hand over the Arcadia.

Unfortunately, Sadie didn't know that the Arcadia couldn't be taken away. As long as she didn't enter the Arcadia, no other living thing could.

Hector was selfish, and Sadie was even worse. She wanted to snatch the Arcadia but was even more afraid of it being taken away once she got it. So, she would definitely not tell Hector and the others.

Stella, seeing through her, made Sadie furious. "Stella, don't be too arrogant, just try it if you don't believe me."

"Alright." Stella smiled, "Let's try it."

Sadie's face hardened. "Fine, we'll see!" Now she absolutely couldn't show weakness. Once she did, she would lose.

Sadie stood tall and warned, "You'll regret it!" After saying that, she turned and left.

Stella didn't leave and watched Sadie walk away.

Sadie was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Since Stella refused the suggestion, she had to deal with rejection and do as she had warned. She would let everyone in Griffith know that Stella had the Arcadia and see if there was still a place for her to stay.

With the knowledge of Stella’s possession, Sadie would make Stella homeless. With a determined mind, she quickened her pace down the stairs.
