How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 156

"It's lovely seeing you. I'll be off now, but I'll come visit again soon."

Morwenna waved goodbye to Keira with a bright smile.

Summoning her courage, Keira also raised her hand and waved back.

As she watched Morwenna walk away, a sudden urge to recover and return to school washed over Keira. She had dreaded the thought of going back to that intimidating institution, convinced that no one cared about her education. She used to think even without a diploma, her life wouldn't be much affected.

But learning that Morwenna was also at Rosefrost University shifted her perspective—maybe school wasn't so scary after all.

...

Morwenna returned to Hetfield's Homestead.

She spent some time chatting with Norbert before heading upstairs to make a phone call to Johnson, inquiring about the progress on the construction of Hope Elementary School.

Afterward, she carefully calculated her earnings to figure out how long it would take to pay off her debt to Stuart.

Feeling that she had attended to everything and everyone, she noticed that Stuart hadn’t come home yet. This time, Morwenna didn't go to sleep but stayed awake, waiting.

By midnight, Stuart still hadn’t returned.

Unable to hold back any longer, Morwenna sent him a text: “Stuart, what time are you coming home tonight?”

After sending the message, she kept staring at her phone screen, lighting it up every time it went dark.

Half an hour later, her phone pinged. It wasn't Stuart, but a marketing message.

Morwenna couldn’t help but complain, “Who sends promotions in the middle of the night!”

Stuart didn’t reply, and after a while, Morwenna, unable to stay awake any longer, drifted off to sleep.
