Chapter 2097 Love At First Kiss


    After confirming that Josephine was not a phantom image, hot tears burst out from Jared''s eyes. In


    utter disbelief, he asked, “Is this real, Josephine? Are you real?”


    "Yes. It''s real...” Tears of joy streaked Josephine''s face too.


    The long-separated lovers had finally reunited with each other. Even though they had many


    questions, none of them could form coherent sentences at this moment.


    Jared''s eyes fixated on Josephine’s tear-stained face. He had longed to see his lover for a long time.


    Ultimately, he could no longer resist the urge to kiss her on the lips.


    Josephine returned his kiss passionately.


    Nothing else in the world mattered to them other than the other party.


    They were so deeply engrossed in their kiss that they disregarded everything else.


    Their kisssted for a while, only ending after Josephine had breathing difficulties and Jared let her

    She looked at the darkened sky, finally remembering that she was here to forage for food.


    "Oh, no. I forgot I was here to search for food. Mnie must still be famished now,” Josephine


    stated urgently.


    “Mnie? Do you mean Mnie Woonds? She''s around this ce too?"Jared asked shocked.


    “I''ll exin it to youter. Why don''t you help me seek edibles? Then, we can talk as we walk back...”


    Josephine urged Jared along.


    Soon, both found some wild vegetables and fruits before returning to Mnie''s side.


    As they walked, Josephine recounted the story to Jared. That was when the man finally found out


    that Malphas had abducted both Renee and Mnie into this secret realm.


    Jared''s interest was piqued when he heard about the book Arthur gave to Mnie.


    How did Mr. Sanders know that Mnie and Renee would run into me? Was it in his prediction that


    these two women would be kidnapped by Evil Heart Sect, and abandoned here in the secret realm?


    Besides, what is the true motive for abducting them?


    The circumstances were shrouded in mystery, and it bothered Jared.


    Quickly, Jared and Josephine arrived at their destination. Before them, Mnie was lying weakly on


    the ground while Renee stayed beside and caring for her.


    Detecting movement near her, Renee lifted her head. She was stunned the minute she saw Jared.


    Then, the woman immediately jumped up from the ground. “Jared! It''s you... I never thought that I


    would really meet you here...”


    Meanwhile, Mnie heard Renee''s excited screams. She tried to raise her head to determine the


    cause of thetter''s joy. When Jared''s face appeared before her, she felt her body injected with


    energy, and she got up right away.


    The group exchanged pleasantries joyously, letting Mnie consume some wild fruits to replenish


    her energy.


    Just then, Mnie took out the book Arthur gave her. “Mr. Sanders told us to pass it to you so we


    haven''t flipped through it.”


    Jared took the aged and worn book, feeling a bizarre aura from it. Frowning, he peered at


    Josephine. “Josephine, have you everid your hands on this book before?”


    "Yes, I did. But I didn''t open it.” Came Josephine''s reply.


    "You felt that strange auraing from it?" Jared probed further.


    “No. I felt nothing at all. It was just an ordinary book to me.” She shook her head.


    "That''s odd.” Surprise gripped Jared. He proceeded to flip the book open.


    Everyone was stunned when they saw the content, for there were no words in it. The pages were left


    nk.


    "W-Why isn''t there any content in this book?” Renee gaped in astonishment.


    “Jared, could this be a magical book we must unlock to view its subject matters?” Josephine


    suggested.


    Jared nodded. “It''s possible...” Then, he transferred a flow of aura into the book.


    No visible changes were made, though. The book was still empty.
