How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 285

The name Adelaide, for Morwenna, was like a bad taste in her mouth. It was rare for Morwenna to dislike someone this intensely.

In truth, Adelaide had once saved Stuart, and if Adelaide had simply pursued Stuart openly, Morwenna wouldn’t have had an issue with her. But Adelaide didn’t go after Stuart. Instead, she always found sneaky ways to bother Morwenna, which she really didn't appreciate.

Seeing Morwenna’s frown, Greta quickly said, “Don’t worry too much. That backstabber Adelaide won’t stir up much trouble. Stuart wouldn’t allow it since he was the one who sent her packing. She’s already on a flight back home. I have a friend who spotted Adelaide returning, so I came to give you a heads-up.”

Morwenna gratefully responded, “Thank you, Greta.”

Greta leaned in closer, her curiosity piqued, “Even though that backstabber’s return might not mean much, I do wonder what’s brewing. So, how are things between you and Stuart?”

Morwenna gaped, realizing Greta was here for the scoop. Nevertheless, she didn’t mind sharing with Greta. Their relationship wasn’t a secret to Greta, so it was fine.

Morwenna earnestly shared, “Stuart and I are doing well. It's just that now I’ve started school, I can’t just leave campus whenever I want, so we don’t see each other every day. But we call each other daily. My English isn’t very good, so... he reads me English stories…”

Greta was all ears, shaking her head after hearing the story, “No, no, that won’t do. With someone like Stuart, the physical closeness reflects how close he is to you emotionally. This polite distance isn’t enough.”

“Actually... it's not all just polite distance. He... he has kissed me.”
