A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 661

The night stretched on, and Zoe did not even know what time it was.

She pondered the terrible prospect of sitting here the entire night.

What's more, it was so dark around them. There was nothing she could do.

Zoe sighed.

She managed to compose herself after the surge of emotions.

She rationalized with herself that having overcome things that were way more difficult to swallow, like acknowledging the wrong woman as her mother, such a small issue like being trapped in a building in pitch-black darkness was nothing.

Since she could not do anything about it, she decided to make the best out of the situation.
