Chapter 312 Trapped in Debt

• Quinn stumbled away from Reign Healer Clinic, her mind racing with fear and desperation as rain poured down on her. She trudged towards Apothecary's Hall, her thoughts consumed by the weight of impending doom. Suddenly, a rough hand clamped over her mouth from behind, silencing her. Before she could react, a sack was thrown over her head, and a sharp pain shot through her neck, plunging her into darkness.
• Half an hour later, Quinn woke abruptly to the shock of icy water splashing over her, jolting her senses alive. Blinking against the harsh light of a dim, rundown room, she found herself surrounded by a group of menacing men.
• The sight of them sent a chill down her spine, and Quinn instinctively curled up in the corner, her eyes darting fearfully from face to face. The leader, a man with one eye, spoke with a voice that dripped with menace.
