Chapter 318

Zoey was feeling dead inside at the same time Rose felt they were lucky that no one got hurt. The search for one person started causing more trouble and loss of another member.

Zoey's heart weighed heavy with the burden of responsibility. Each loss on the island deepened the void within her, a hollow reminder of the stakes they faced and the lives at risk. Despite her best efforts to lead and protect, the island's relentless dangers cast a shadow over her spirit, leaving her feeling hollowed out and numb.

She recognized the precarious nature of their mission and acknowledged the fortune that no harm had befallen them during their search. However, the disappearance of one member had inadvertently led to new challenges and the tragic loss of another, a stark illustration of the island's unforgiving terrain.
