How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Keira was the first to notice that something was off about the way Dahlia looked at Morwenna. She had wanted to talk to Morwenna about it, but was afraid of wrongly accusing Dahlia and worried that Morwenna might not believe her. Now that Morwenna had realized it herself, Keira felt she had to be honest.

As soon as Keira finished speaking, Dahlia shot her a glare that could freeze hell over. Keira shivered in fear.

Morwenna stepped in front of Keira, facing Dahlia with a calm demeanor. "Let's just leave it at that, Dahlia. We're not friends, but there's no need to become enemies."

Dahlia looked away, remembering that she had come to reconcile, not to make things worse. Embarrassed, she muttered an apology to Morwenna before turning to leave. It wasn't shame that drove her away but the humiliation of standing there after a begrudging apology, feeling isolated.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Once Dahlia left, Lorna, who was not often serious, asked Morwenna, "So, is it really over between you two?"

Morwenna nodded. "Yeah, we're just not on the same path."

Morwenna, in particular, was dedicated, spending all her spare time there, even borrowing books from the library to read at the pickup point instead of the library, balancing work and study.

At 8 PM, Morwenna's phone was finally returned. Lorna handed it over, apologizing for not being able to find an exact screen replacement but instead had managed to find a compatible one. Morwenna, grateful, didn't notice any difference and thanked Lorna.

Upon unlocking her phone, Morwenna's face turned pale. She read the message three times, her hands trembling, then frantically- dialed Stuart's number, but it went unanswered. Panic-stricken and at a loss for words, she then called Orson.

Orson picked up immediately, his voice urgent. "Mrs. Hetfield, Norbert's in trouble, you need to come home now! Something's happened at home, Mr. Hetfield is nowhere to be found, and we couldn't protect Norbert, I... Oh..."
