How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 424

In a world as vast as the ocean, searching for one person feels like finding a needle in a haystack. Fletcher was determined to see Morwenna and ask her face-to-face what had happened. But Morwenna wasn't answering her phone or replying to messages.

So, Fletcher decided to go directly to her place, showing up at Hetfield's Homestead, only to be stopped at the gates. Several burly security guards barred his way, simply stating he wasn't allowed in. No matter how Fletcher explained who he was, the guards wouldn't budge.

Not willing to force his way through, Fletcher turned around and headed to Rosefrost University. Morwenna was a student there, and since it wasn't vacation time, her sudden disappearance was odd. Fletcher hoped the university might shed some light on her whereabouts.

At Rosefrost University, Fletcher ran into Keira. Keira was beside herself with worry for Morwenna. The thought that her timid friend might skip classes to find Morwenna had her on edge. One day, Morwenna and Lorna had simply vanished, and since then, all calls went unanswered. Normally, such an act would draw the school's ire—sneaking out and not returning for days was serious business. Yet, it seemed the dean had managed to keep the incident under wraps.

Having waited days with no sign of them, Keira's anxiety peaked when she saw Fletcher. Grabbing his shirt in desperation, her eyes brimming with tears, she pleaded, "You're Wenna's friend, right? Do you know where she is? She's been gone for days now."

Fletcher furrowed his brow and asked, "Days? Did she take leave for some reason, or did something happen?"

Keira shook her head vigorously, "I don't know. Wenna's always been so diligent; she wouldn't miss a single class, let alone disappear for days. Something must have happened... but I'm clueless. Lorna left with her three nights ago."

Fletcher's mind raced. Three nights ago—that was the same day Stuart had left. Fletcher quickly said, "Morwenna's fine, don't worry too much. It's Norbert; something's happened to him. I'll check on it."

"Please, you must help Wenna. Has something happened to Norbert? She cares about him more than anyone. What are we going to do? Here, take this card; it has some money on it. Could you please give it to Wenna?"

Keira handed Fletcher a card, not just any card, but one containing all her savings. She feared Wenna might need money for Norbert's medical expenses, not considering the wealth of the Hetfield family; her only thought was to help Wenna.
