Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Chapter 54: What a feast for the eyes

Suddenly, Elijah noticed through the gap in Daisy's T-shirt that she was wearing a style of bra that clearly wasn't her usual preference.

It looked familiar to him. Quickly, his eyes lit up.

Yesterday, at the clothing store, Elijah had jokingly pointed out a more revealing set of underwear and teased Daisy to wear it.

She vehemently refused. But now... she was wearing that exact set of underwear!

"When did this girl sneakily bring this?" A fire ignited in Elijah's heart. "And why wear it? Does she really want me to see?"

Unable to resist any longer, Elijah leaned down and kissed her lightly. Daisy furrowed her brows and then pouted.

Elijah also lay down on the bed, gently embracing her. Daisy gradually woke up. "Elijah~" She seemed not fully awake, looking adorable and coy.

"Elijah, today do you want to... eat me? Can you?"...

When Elijah and Daisy appeared in front of Fiona again, she noticed Elijah's flushed face, as if he had encountered something very pleasant.

But then again, the whole island was technically his now, so he should be very happy.

On the other hand, Daisy's face was slightly red, and she pursed her lips high.

One might think she was angry, but she was tightly holding onto Elijah's arm. Not angry? But her expression clearly showed she didn't want to talk to Elijah.

Fiona always thought of the two as a couple and didn't think much further, assuming they were just having a lover's spat. It might even be because of her.

"Good morning!" Elijah greeted!

Fiona rolled her eyes at him. "It's almost evening now!"

"Then, good evening!" Elijah grinned.

"Do you have any food? We're both starving!" After speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Daisy.

As if on cue, Daisy also looked over and immediately huffed, unwilling to respond to him.

Elijah chuckled! Ignoring her completely!

After all, he already had her entire body! A little complaint now and then was understandable.

"Dinner has been prepared for you!" Fiona pointed to the nearby restaurant and led the way.

The restaurant was on the other side of the lounge area, and it was similarly spacious, with many tables and chairs of various sizes.

Hannah, Grace, and Katherine were all there, but Gabriel and Emily were missing.

"My nephew... cough, Gabriel, where are they?"

Fiona said with a half-smile upon hearing this: "Didn't you tell them to go to the service area on the shore?"

Elijah remembered joking about it in the morning.

"Ah, yes! Someone does need to watch over there!" Elijah suddenly recalled the joke he made in the morning, then quickly shifted his focus to the food on the table.

"Wow! So many pastries! Mmm~ I haven't had these in ages!"

Daisy forgot her embarrassment as soon as she saw the food.

She lunged for the table, unapologetically grabbing a piece of creatively shaped cake and started eating.

Besides various cakes Elijah couldn't name, there were also some dumplings, steaming hot as if they had just come out of the pot.

Elijah also sat down and said to the few women standing beside, "You haven't eaten either, right? Sit down and eat together!"

"Yeah, let's eat together!" Daisy's mouth was full, but she still managed to greet the others happily. "This is delicious, Fiona sis, who made it?"

Upon hearing this, the other women took their seats one after another. Fiona sat next to Elijah, with Grace on the other side.

Hannah sat next to Daisy, with Katherine on the other side. The small round table was just right for everyone.

"Hannah made these!" Fiona smiled slightly. "I haven't introduced her properly yet. Hannah is actually a pastry chef I hired, who used to be the head pastry chef at a Michelin-starred restaurant!"

"Wow, no wonder they're so delicious! I'm going to enjoy myself from now on!" Daisy cozied up to Hannah. "Hannah sis, how did you make this? Can I learn?"

"I... I only know how to make pastries. I'm glad you like them!" Hannah's face showed a rare smile. "These are made by mixing three types of flour and then adding..."

Daisy's head was spinning from listening. She hadn't realized that making pastries could be such a profound art. "That sounds so difficult... I'll just stick to eating!"

Hannah smiled gently, and her smile seemed much more natural.

Elijah couldn't help but glance at her more. Hannah's appearance was not inferior to Fiona's—she had delicate features, fair skin, and a good figure, with the right amount of plumpness in the right places.

But she always had a blank expression, giving off a cold vibe that made her seem unapproachable. But now, with a slight smile, she looked stunning, like a beautiful flower in bloom.

"Hannah sis, you look so beautiful when you smile! You should smile more in the future!" Daisy was also taken aback. It's human nature to admire beauty, regardless of gender.

"Thank you, you're very cute too!" Hannah replied with a giggle. Daisy's lively nature and cheerful personality quickly made her close friends with the other women.

Elijah buried himself in eating, occasionally lifting his head to see the vibrant and distinctive women surrounding him, feeling like he was in a dreamlike state.

What a feast for the eyes! Elijah's appetite was greatly stimulated, and he couldn't help but eat a few more bites of rice.

"We'll be leaving soon, I need to talk to you about something!" After dinner, while the women were tidying up the table, Elijah pulled Fiona aside.

"You're leaving?" Fiona was surprised!

"Yes, we came here just to scout, and we'll be heading back tonight. We'll come back tomorrow with the others!"

"Are your companions not at the service area by the shore?" Fiona was puzzled. She had been wondering why she hadn't seen his companions come over.

Elijah realized she had misunderstood and explained, "I forgot to mention, my second-tier ability is replication of abilities. My first-tier ability is controlling zombies through contracts."

Elijah briefly explained his abilities.

Fiona suddenly realized something. "So when you said there weren't just two of you, it's because you also control zombies?"

"Yes, unfortunately, Isaac was too alert and escaped, leaving behind another person!" Elijah felt a bit regretful.

Fiona wasn't focused on that detail but instead, through his abilities, thought of something more... "Everyone who drinks your blood is bound by your contract. Because zombies lack self-awareness, they can be controlled by you..."

"If one of us were to become a zombie, the contract wouldn't be invalidated, and they would immediately come under your control, unable to attack others. In that case, the virus's greatest threat to the group would be eliminated!"

How astute! To think of all that from just fragments of description!

Elijah was truly impressed.
