How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband



Morwenna turned back, "Dahlia, this is the end of the line for us. If you bring up the Hetfield Group with me again, I'll go straight to Stuart. You know how he can be. I doubt you'd want to see how he'd react towards the Scotts."

Dahlia was stunned, quickly responding, "Morwenna! Ending our friendship over something so minor?"

Morwenna said nothing more, just opened the door and left.

Some people reserve their kindness for the underdog in trivial matters. But once you truly get to know them, you find fundamental differences that cannot be reconciled. Morwenna never wasted energy on things she couldn't change. If they weren't aligned, why put in the effort?

Morwenna simply walked away, leaving a bewildered Dahlia behind.

Dahlia couldn't comprehend where things had gone wrong. Wasn't she good enough to Morwenna? She had shown Morwenna nothing but kindness since the semester started—showing her around campus, accompanying her to the cafeteria, even ensuring Morwenna didn't feel out of place by eating lots of sandwiches together, so others wouldn't look at Morwenna differently. She had done so much; wasn't it enough?

Why end a friendship over such a trivial matter? Just passing along a message, making a connection—it wasn't a loss for Morwenna, was it really worth ending their friendship over? Dahlia felt a pang of unjustified hurt.

...

Morwenna stepped out of the dorm, heart aching as she retrieved her phone. The screen was so shattered it had gone black and wouldn't even turn

on.

"Morwenna! Are you slacking off in the dorm when you said you were just going to the bathroom?" Lorna's boisterous voice echoed.

Morwenna looked up, her large, watery eyes meeting Lorna's.

As Lorna met Morwenna's gaze, her bravado deflated significantly, "Well, uh, sneaking off isn't such a big deal, everything's nearly done anyway." Lorna thought, Morwenna's so adorable, what's the harm in her slacking a bit?

Morwenna looked up at Lorna, holding up her phone, pitifully saying, "Lorna, someone broke my phone."

At that moment, Lorna suddenly understood why some people became so protective. With that sweet, vulnerable look, who on earth would break her phone!

Lorna's tone softened, "No worries it's just a phone. I'll get you a new one. My family owns an electronics store. We can get it at cost, it won't be expensive."

Morwenna's real friends knew she was frugal by nature. This had nothing to do with being with Stuart; Morwenna was simply not one to splurge. Morwenna shook her head; it was a phone Stuart had given her, and she only wanted that one.

Seeing Morwenna's refusal, LornaContent from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

scratched her head and said, "Okay, how about this? I'll get someone to fix it. Probably just the screen, we can replace it and it'll be good as new."

JMS

"Really?"

"Of course, when have I ever lied? Give me the phone, I'll call a buddy to pick it up from the campus gate. It'll be fixed in no time."

Morwenna quickly handed her phone over, her eyes shining brightly.

"Lorna, thank you!"

Lorna couldn't help but smile, putting on a serious face, "We're friends, aren't we? No need to thank me!"

Now, Lorna had completely

forgotten that her initial reason for

befriending Morwenna was because of Morwenna's "battle skills." Fighting? Who would want to fight someone as cute as her?
