How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 289

The drama at the welcome party didn't manage to drag Morwenna down.

Sandra had initially plotted to make Morwenna gradually despised and expelled by everyone. However, Lorna and Barclay, for reasons unknown, had taken Morwenna's side, forcing Sandra to tread carefully. Especially after hearing that Jethro, who had targeted Morwenna, ended up in the hospital with serious injuries.

So, for the time being, Sandra had laid off Morwenna. At the moment, she was just looking for an opportunity to stir up some trouble for her.

Morwenna had just finished delivering a staggering hundred parcels that evening. She was amazed at how much Rosefrost University students loved online shopping. Just as Morwenna was about to return the little cart, someone rushed over, calling out, “Morwenna, someone's looking for you at the main gate.”

Morwenna frowned, “Who's looking for me?”

The messenger shrugged, “Don't know. Some pretty lady. Go see for yourself.”

Morwenna thought it might be her sister Greta. She didn't really know many people in Rosefrost Hollow, and among the few women she did know, aside from Keira, Greta was the only one who came to mind.

Morwenna hurried to the main gate. But the moment she saw the coughing figure, she turned to leave.

Adelaide's fragile voice called out, “Morwenna, wait!”

Morwenna had no intention of listening to Adelaide.

Adelaide's voice, laced with malice, was sharp and piercing, “Don't you want to know why Stuart has suddenly been so nice to you? Don't you want to know how his behavior might change now that I'm back?”
