Chapter 97
The next morning.
Aiden and his group got into the vehicle to head to their destination, Shreveport.
“Are you going to stay here?”
Aiden had already suggested to Roman that if needed, they could take him to another place where there might be other survivor groups.
However, Roman shook his head.
“I’ve lived here my whole life. Born here, got married here, raised children here. And now I’ve buried them all here. Now, where would I go if I leave this place?”
“...”
“I’ve managed well enough alone until now. Without that cougar, it might even be safer from now on. Don’t worry about me, just go your way.”
Aiden nodded at Roman’s words.
If that was his decision, Aiden had no choice but to respect it.
Having bid farewell to Roman, Aiden and his group soon left the city. The old man stood on the long stretch of road, watching Aiden’s group move away.
