A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1016

The lettuce was certainly heavy, but Zoe started looking for the next vegetable on the inventory.

She had never seen actual eggplants in farms before, but she at least knew that they were purple.

It was too distinct a trait, so she found them immediately and plucked two.

And then, it was the bell peppers…

"Bell peppers, so peppers that look like bells? I guess I just have to find something similar… Okay, got it!"

Zoe started to get a little excited just then.

She suddenly wanted to praise herself for her intelligence—she never felt as smart as this!

Once she was done with the bell peppers, she started to look for giant cabbages.

"This one should be easy. Since it's 'giant', I just have to find the biggest vegetable in the farm," Zoe said, though she had to move to another part of the farm to pull out the cabbage.

With that in the basket, she moved on to the spring onion, and found it yet again according to a hunch.

But what was a coriander?

Zoe was left staring at the word. It was just so bizarre a name for a vegetable, and there was no clue as to what it even looked like. And to make things worse, she could not Google it on her phone, since the production crew had confiscated everyone's phone for this task. There was no assistance to be hoped for from there!

Where should she even start looking?

Zoe started strolling aimlessly through the farm, but there were just too many vegetables for her to pick the correct one according to her 'feelings'.

She asked the cameraman just then, "Are you sure that we'll be denied food ingredients tonight if we don't pick the right vegetables?"

"Yes," the cameraman replied.

"Well, what's a coriander?" Zoe asked him casually.

The man even glanced at the inventory but said, "Beats me."

"You're the ones who set the quiz, no?!"
