How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Chapter 251

Lorna had a point.

Their room only housed four people.

Dahlia hailed from the influential Scott family - no one dared cross her, and Lorna herself was untouchable. Morwenna was doing just fine, which left Keira as the only one with a target on her back.

Morwenna couldn't bear the thought of timid Keira being bullied. What would they reduce her to?

Seeing Morwenna hesitate, Lorna, with a mix of awkwardness and defiance, blurted out, "Sorry!"

But the tone and the stance were anything but apologetic. It sounded more like a challenge to a duel than an apology.

Morwenna, still pondering Keira's whereabouts, was startled by Lorna's loud 'sorry'.

Lorna, noticing Morwenna's sharp gaze, lost a bit of her swagger. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She continued, "We agreed - lose the fight, apologize. So, that's my apology. But don't think for a second I'm okay with losing. I was unprepared last time, underestimated you. But I'm not convinced. Morwenna, if you're so tough, let's have another go!"

Morwenna wasn't fond of Lorna for two reasons: Lorna's rudeness and her not keeping her word. But Lorna had apologized.

This cleared up most of Morwenna's resentment.

Concerned for Keira and putting aside her issues with Lorna, Morwenna grabbed Lorna's hand and sprinted, "We can fight later, first, take me to Keira."

Lorna stumbled, dragged along by Morwenna, and grumbled, "Holy cow, Morwenna, are you secretly a linebacker? Since when did you get so strong?"

"Didn't you say someone was messing with her? Who told you? Hurry, take me there," Morwenna urged, her voice tinged with desperation.

Morwenna sensed something was wrong with Keira, who hadn't been answering her calls. Reflecting on the past few days, she realized Keira had been acting off, increasing her worry.

Lorna, feeling like a giant being led by a pint-sized powerhouse, protested as her face turned red, "Morwenna, let go! I can walk by myself!"

Morwenna released Lorna.

Still annoyed, Lorna said, "I don't understand why you're so worried about that weakling. Follow me, this way!"

Knowing Morwenna was anxious, Lorna picked up the pace.

Of course, in her mind, she wasn't just helping Morwenna; she was looking forward to their rematch.

Lorna led Morwenna to the basketball court.

The varsity team was practicing, surrounded by a crowd of girls holding towels and water, some screaming their adoration.

Lorna marched over, plucked a glasses-wearing girl from the crowd without a word.

Before the girl could scream, Lorna told Morwenna, "This is the one. She told me someone was after one of us."

Morwenna immediately questioned the girl, "Who's trying to mess with me? Is it because I became the Freshman Representative?"

The girl snapped back, "What are you doing? You're ruining my view of the game. What trouble? What Freshman Representative? Are you out of your minds?"

Confused, Morwenna thought they had the wrong person.

Lorna impatiently asked, "What about Keira? Is someone after her?"

The girl's demeanor shifted slightly but she remained irritated, "I don't know any Keira. You've got the wrong person. I'm going back to the game."

Morwenna was naive, but not foolish. She noticed the girl's brief panic at the mention of Keira's name.

So, someone was indeed targeting Keira, but not because of Morwenna.

But why? Keira was too timid to offend anyone. She'd struggle to even raise her voice.
