A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 660

Zoe was beginning to lose hope.

Was she going to stay the night here?!

It was probably impossible for her to try to find her phone in such darkness.

She might fall to her death before she made it to the rehearsal room.

It was eerily silent in the darkness, and neither of them spoke a word.

They could only hear the subtle sounds of each other's breathing.

"Where's your phone?" Jay suddenly spoke up after a long while.

Zoe almost thought that Jay had vanished into thin air.

"It's in my bag in the rehearsal room," Zoe replied to his question.

"Are you going to take it?"

"I don't dare to. It's too dark and scary."

"You kicked my walking stick away just now."

"Oh. It's next to your right arm," Zoe said.

Jay crouched down and groped around in the darkness.

Zoe heard the sound of the walking stick against the floor and figured that Jay probably found it.

She then sensed Jay standing up next to her.

Was he planning to help her take her phone?!

How kind-hearted of him.

No, he was just trying to save himself.

"Wait here for me," Jay said.

"Are you sure you can make it there yourself with your injury?" Zoe blurted.

She did not mean it sarcastically, but she just felt like Jay was being a little conceited.

"Well…my body is weak, but my will is strong."

Zoe almost burst out laughing.

Who would describe themselves that way?

In that case, she decided to wait here obediently.

She was glad to be able to sit back and wait for help, rather than banging her head against walls.

With the help of his walking stick, Jay hobbled out of the washroom.

She was not sure if he bumped into anything. All she could hear was the occasional strange sound that echoed in the night.

Zoe sat and waited for a long while.

She had no idea how long she waited.

She only knew that it was deadly quiet around.
