How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 458

Claude's expression shifted subtly as the realization dawned on him: Attorney Wesley's arrangements were indeed necessary.

Phineas, on the other hand, seemed impatient and unwilling to drag things out. He was ready to capture Morwenna, consequences be damned.

Even if Claude called the police, even if there were repercussions, Phineas was determined to act first.

A swarm of bodyguards surged forward, and a brawl erupted between the two groups.

Claude's side was clearly outnumbered.

Under the cover of his bodyguards, Phineas stormed into the villa.

They searched high and low, but Morwenna was nowhere to be found.

It suddenly hit Phineas: he had been played.

Morwenna wasn't there at all.

That day, several people had been present.

Besides Claude, there were Attorney Wesley, Matthew, and Brian.

Since Morwenna wasn't here, one of those three must have taken her away.

Although someone had seen Attorney Wesley leave alone, making him still somewhat suspicious, Phineas decided to focus on the other two first.

After all, no family member wants to make an enemy of a top-notch lawyer.

As Phineas mulled over these thoughts, he turned to leave, his face dark with anger.

He paused in front of Orson, who was pinned down by three bodyguards, as if contemplating giving him a thrashing.

From behind, Claude spoke coldly, "Phineas, leave my place immediately, or... Even though I don't hold many shares, if I oppose you with all I've got, I think you'll still find it troublesome."
