How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 327

The room fell silent after Stuart spoke up.

It was as if a pack of foxes had been caught in their own game, each trying to outwit the other, all while putting on a facade in front of Princess. Did they really think Stuart couldn't see through their act?

Princess had qualities that others simply lacked. And whatever Princess didn't have, Stuart was determined to provide in abundance. Forget about matching social status or upbringing—anything that mattered to Morwenna, he was ready to address.

When Stuart fell for someone, it was an all-in, no-holds-barred kind of love.

Adelaide's face turned a shade paler. She had always strived to show her best side to Stuart, to prove she was worthy of standing by his side. But now, Stuart's words made it clear that none of that mattered. For years, she was the only woman close to Stuart, which everyone saw as favoritism—a belief she shared. But seeing Stuart's treatment of Morwenna, Adelaide realized this was what true favoritism looked like.

Why? Why did the cold, ruthless Stuart fall for Morwenna? What was so special about her? Adelaide felt her world crumbling yet managed to keep a strong facade.

Morwenna, on the other hand, stood there, dazed. This was the first time Stuart had firmly stood up for her, the first time he defended her in public like Norbert Hetfield once did. She felt cherished, not smug, but confused and cautiously hopeful it wasn't just a dream.
