The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 913

"Where?!" Irene asked urgently.

"It's quite a distance," James said. "We have to foot it."

"Alright, let's go," Irene said urgently. "Take me there."

It was fine if it was far. She wanted to see if it was Isaac right away!

With the Dunesians leading the way, they strode through the pathless mountain and climbed up the mountain.

Along the way, Irene missed a large rock beneath her foot and slipped, bending her foot in an odd angle.

As she gasped in pain, Zachary asked from behind her, "Are you alright?'

"I'm fine," Irene said, shaking her head—she would not delay the others.

However, her ankles hurt, and she thought it might be a sprain.

The skies overhead were turning dark, but they trudged along with their flashlights.

The trek remained difficult as ever, and they would spot debris from the wreckage from time to time.

Irene tried her best not to look, so as to calm herself.

Soon, it was night, and their environment was much quieter and colder.

Even so, they were all sweating after walking for so long.

"We're here," James said, pointing to a spot ahead that was illuminated brightly.

Irene also spotted the body that was covered under a large piece of white cloth and dashed forward to pull it off.

The man was dead with a foot missing, his face thoroughly charred.

However, judging from his body's build and height, it was not Isaac.

Irene heaved a sigh of relief, though she tensed up at the same time as well.

If this man ended up like this, what about Isaac?

The thought scared her so much she stumbled a couple paces backward, and Zachary had to quickly catch her. "Irene?"

Irene dropped to a couch and rasped, "Let's keep looking."

"Everyone is," both James and Zachary said.

Vision was poor at night up on Darcy's Peak, and they had to rely on flashlights.

Both the Dunesians and volunteers from the Zidonian embassy stopped as midnight approached, but Irene refused.

She did not seem to tire, and she continued her search with a crazed fervor.
