How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 460

"What did you say?"

"That's how it is, Stuart. You'll have to handle this yourself. I'm neither a part of the Hetfield family nor connected to Morwenna. I can't help you."

Edmund approached with a silver needle in hand, catching part of their conversation and rolling his eyes. "Why so negative? As long as I'm here, even if you're crippled, you won't die."

Fletcher couldn't help but think, *Is that supposed to be comforting? It sounds more like an insult.*

Just then, Jack suddenly shouted in excitement, rushing over with his phone. "I've got a signal! I received a message from our team outside!"

For a soldier like Jack, showing such obvious delight was a rare sight.

They had set up plenty of satellite internet equipment and signal boosters around the perimeter. The phone had been silent for days, but while they were setting up camp, it suddenly rang.

Jack quickly contacted the team outside, explained their situation, and got their coordinates.

"We're not too far from getting out," Jack said, his voice quick with excitement. "With the coordinates, we won't lose our way, and it won't be long before we're out."

"Can we push through the night now that we have a path?" Stuart, thinking about Fletcher's earlier words, was eager to return as soon as possible.

Jack shook his head. "No, it's too dangerous at night. Just because we know the way doesn't mean it's safe. We can't risk everyone's safety for a bit of time."

Stuart understood; safety couldn't be compromised no matter how urgent things seemed.

Everyone was buzzing with excitement, except for Edmund, who remained indifferent. Life and death held little distinction for the old man.

During the conversation, Edmund had already turned Stuart into a human pincushion with his needles.

After a moment of silence, Stuart asked, "Can you find out how Norbert is doing?"
