How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 439

At this moment, the footprints of two people were clear, and in this area, Fletcher was convinced it was Stuart’s trail.

It turned out that Fletcher and Jack were the perfect duo to find Stuart.

Fletcher truly understood Stuart.

The two followed the bloodstains, which led them to a bloodied dagger.

Fletcher’s eyes lit up with recognition. “This is definitely Stuart’s. I gave him this dagger a while back after going through a lot of trouble to get it.”

Jack nodded solemnly. “They’ve run into a bear. The blood is still fresh. We need to hurry!”

The two quickly followed the trail, staying on high alert. Armed with binoculars, they spotted the bear from a distance.

Jack and Fletcher were well-prepared, armed to the teeth.

Not only were they equipped with weapons, but they also had medical supplies, food, and medicine ready. If it hadn’t been so difficult to locate people in the dense forest from the air, they would have considered bringing in a helicopter.

Jack carefully observed the bear standing guard at the cave entrance and instructed, “Fletcher, you move forward to draw the bear’s attention, and I’ll take the shot.”

Without hesitation, Fletcher agreed, “Alright.”

Being the bait was risky, but the shooter needed to have impeccable aim, ready for any situation. As someone with military training, Jack was undoubtedly more suited for the task.

They coordinated effortlessly.

Their group of friends was actually closer to Stuart than anyone else.

But such coordination was impossible with Stuart.

Stuart didn’t trust anyone enough to expose his back or use himself as bait.

Fletcher walked directly towards the bear.

He was anxious about Stuart’s condition and couldn’t afford to slow down.

The wounded bear turned its head towards Fletcher.
