How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 207

As soon as Morwenna blurted it out, she regretted it.

Stuart was notoriously picky about his food; he probably wasn't going to be thrilled about the egg.

But Stuart just arched an eyebrow slightly. He didn’t respond, but with a touch of his usual haughtiness, he took a seat on the small stool nearby.

It was a tiny stool, one Morwenna used to rest on when she was tired.

With Stuart’s long legs folded on it, it almost seemed too small for him, almost beneath his dignity.

Morwenna paused, wondering if this meant he was willing to eat after all.

She peeled the boiled egg and brought it to Stuart’s lips.

Just a plain boiled egg.

Stuart didn’t really like it, but he opened his mouth anyway.

Morwenna had never fed someone like this, hand to mouth, and Stuart ended up biting her finger.

He realized immediately, not biting hard, more like a gentle kiss on Morwenna’s finger.

Morwenna jerked her hand back as if she’d been snapped by a mousetrap, nearly dropping the egg in fright, if not for her deep respect for food.

Stuart looked up at her, his gaze filled with that usual noble aloofness.

With her face flushing and heart racing, Morwenna stammered, “Stuart, I thought you didn’t like boiled eggs.”

She had taken care of Stuart personally before and remembered quite well what he liked and didn’t like.

To her surprise, Stuart simply said, “I’ll eat.”

Morwenna was at a loss for words. She had no choice but to continue feeding Stuart the egg.

The yolk was a bit dry, so she thoughtfully poured him some warm water.

The neighbor, who ran a BBQ joint, came over in a mood for gossip, “Oh, Morwenna, your boyfriend here is quite the looker, handsomer than any celebrity my sister fancies.”

Stuart stood up, the perfect gentleman, and politely said, “Thank you for the compliment.”
