18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 132

As a trainer, handling dogs was a walk in the park for Jasper, but he chose to be patient instead. Stella couldn't help but laugh as she called Cooper to come home. "Come on, Cooper. Time to go."

As she reached the door, Cooper gave one last intimidating glance towards Jasper.

Jasper, who had been on the receiving end of Cooper's threats, sighed in exasperation.

The residents of apartment 1803 returned, carrying their beddings. The 18th floor was lively once again.

Stella had brought over 30 pounds of winter potatoes.

The generous trio didn't take it for free, though. Angela returned the favor by giving Stella 10 pounds of dog food. "Stella, are we having meat tomorrow?"

Stella had a balanced diet of meat and vegetables, but she kept this to herself.

"Sure, what would you guys like to have?"

"Anything would do as long as it has meat."

Cody brought home a few frozen sausages, planning to let Jasper take over the cooking.

Jasper surprised everyone. "Tomorrow, Stella and I will treat you all to a meal."

Angela was taken aback, but Lukas was quick to respond, grinning mischievously. "Great, we've been looking forward to this."

After saying this, he shot meaningful glances at Stella and Jasper.

Stella frowned at his impure intentions. Well, why not? They had been together for a while, and it was better to admit their relationship themselves than to be discovered by others. What would happen in the future? Who knew? They would just take one step at a time.

Just as she was about to leave, Lukas found an excuse to keep her, and had Jasper leave. "So, how far have you guys gone?"

Stella was speechless. Did Lukas really think everyone was as casual as him?

Angela gave him a light kick.
