How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 160

Only Fletcher understood the situation, sighing as he watched from the sidelines, a look of pity in his eyes.

It was hard to tell if he felt sorry for Morwenna or Stuart.

Morwenna had been watching Stuart intently and noticing his indifference. Disappointed, she stood up and headed to the restroom.

Once she was gone, Jethro, full of resentment, complained, "Mr. Hetfield, Adelaide has always been my biggest supporter. She'd be heartbroken to hear I got roughed up."

Jethro couldn't stand up to Morwenna. In his frustration, he looked to Stuart for support.

Just then, Orson stepped forward.

With a simple and honest expression, Orson grabbed Jethro by the collar and said to Stuart, "Sir, I'll take Mr. Gallagher outside for a little chat."

Stuart remained silent.

Orson, strong as an ox, easily dragged Jethro out.

Before Jethro could protest, Orson knocked him out cold.

The guests around them gasped in shock.

With a naive look, Orson apologized, “Sorry guys, Norbert made it clear we can't let anyone mess with Morwenna.”

Jethro was dragged away.

The guests in the ballroom exchanged puzzled glances.

Inside the restroom, Morwenna frowned.

She didn’t understand what was going on with Stuart.

It was as if he had become a completely different person.

She thought the change in his demeanor had been because of Adelaide, his lifesaver.

Just as she felt differently about Norbert, surely Stuart did too.

But now, without Adelaide around, why had Stuart changed again?

Every time Morwenna thought she understood him, she felt utterly clueless the next moment.

His cold detachment made her fiery spirit begin to wane.
