Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 1687
Their faces were devoid of any vitality.
There were no dreams, no hopes, only the bare struggle for survival on this island. Anyone would wear the same expression under such circumstances.
Emmanuel couldn't afford to concern himself with these people. He took off
running southward.
"Hey! Emmanuel, stop!"
Aqua's frantic shouts echoed behind him, drawing the attention of many.
Eventually, Emmanuel halted. After running a considerable distance, he finally
noticed a bridge ahead. Across it, the identity tags worn by the people
indicated they were no longer members of the Black Wolf Team.
"Emmanuel, wait.... don't go rushing in!"
Panting heavily, Aqua caught up to him from behind.

Seeing him stop, she took a moment to catch her breath and then said
urgently, "Ahead is the territory of the Frost and Flame Alliance. If you rush in recklessly, you could be surrounded and attacked!"
It was only then that Emmanuel noticed the guards posted at the borders of
each faction's territory.
Guarding the Black Wolf border today was Ironskull, the same person
Emmanuel had taught a lesson to the day before.
Unable to return last night, Ironskull had decided to come straight to the
border. He was now shivering in the cold there, with snot running from his
nose.
He spotted Emmanuel earlier but had deliberately remained silent, hoping Emmanuel would cross into enemy territory and get beaten up.
"Is there always someone guarding the border?" Emmanuel asked Aqua.
If there were always guards on duty, Emmanuel thought he might as well 14:52 Sat, 29 Jun
force his way through now. The longer he took to find his wife's whereabouts,
the more he worried something torriblo might happen to her.
"No, that's not it!" Aqua oxplained patiently. "The management enforces a
curfew. After 8 p.m., everyone has to return indoors, and they can only come out again at 6 a.m. the next day."
"Dark Night Island gets extremely cold at night, bone-chillingly cold. Who
could endure guarding outside?" she continued.
Emmanuel understood. Seeing Ironskull shivering last night and sniffling this morning made sense. Even though Ironskull's cultivation level was far below his own, he was still an A Rank internal strength martial artist. If he couldn't
handle the cold, an ordinary person would likely freeze to death.
Clenching his fists, Emmanuel asked another question, "If someone
trespasses into another faction's territory and starts a fight, will ther
management intervene?"
Aqua's eyes widened in stunned disbelief. "Emmanuel, you're not seriously.

thinking of forcing your way through, are you? The Frost and Flame Alliance is
tough to deal with. Moreover, to protect the island's workforce, if people start getting killed, the Airspace Group management will punish the offenders, and
severe cases could result in execution!"
Emmanuel understood Aqua's point. In simple terms, "If you win, you're
punished; if you lose, you die."
Without knowing Mackenzie's exact location, Emmanuel realized that forcing
his way through was a last resort. He might end up entangled in various troubles before even finding his wife, potentially causing innocent deaths. After weighing his options, he decided to wait until tonight and mover
stealthily, even if it meant enduring the cold.
Seeing him finally change his mind, Aqua breathed a sigh of relief. She
followed him back and asked quietly, "Emmanuel, you're really looking for your wife? I mean, has your wife been kidnapped and brought to Dark Night
Island?"

Emmanuel didn't hide it and nodded.
Aqua was surprised and asked again, "Is your wife an Airspace Group
member?"
Emmanuel shook his head, causing Aqua to be even more puzzled.

dangerous.
Emmanuel's heart was constantly on edge, but he forced himself to stay
calm and make the right choices step by step.
Recklessness wouldn't help him rescue his wife.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
As they walked back, they suddenly felt the ground shaking.
What is happening?
Emmanuel frowned. Could there be giant beasts in this place?
"Not good! It's Vachon Rhodes!" Aqua e
