How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 228

The guys all caught on to what Stuart meant.

This girl was Stuart's sweetheart. And this time, he was seriously.

Stuart and Morwenna headed home first.

Fletcher tried to slip away, but the guys weren't having any of it.

As soon as Stuart and Morwenna were out of sight, they cornered Fletcher.

"Nice one! You sly fox, plotting behind our backs."

"Out of all of us, you're the one who's tight with Stuart. Hanging around him all day, there's no way you didn't know what was up with him and Morwenna. And you kept it a secret!"

"We were this close to a disaster today!"

Fletcher played innocent: "I did tell you, guys. I mentioned Stuart was head over heels for a girl, planning a future together and all."

That caused a moment of silence – it seemed he had mentioned it.

But who the heck would have taken him seriously? They all thought it was a joke!

Fletcher couldn't help but want to laugh, remembering his own shock at the news.

He wasn't about to be the only one stunned; everyone had to have a taste of it.

Grinning, he said, "Next time you see Morwenna, remember your manners. A friendly heads-up: keep your scheming to yourselves around her."

"Got it. Who would've thought, Stuart blooming late in the game like this."

"Yeah, who knew Stuart, of all people, could be so whipped."

"We've been overseas for a while, hearing rumors about some poor student chasing after Stuart, flaunting her affection. Damn rumors got it all wrong – it's Stuart who's head over heels!"

Fletcher nodded in agreement.

...

Stuart and Morwenna returned to the old estate.
