How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Chapter 301

Stuart Hetfield had no tolerance for betrayal.

He didn't even trust his own family members, let alone his bodyguards.

Orson Brown nearly bit his tongue in panic, loudly replying, "Mr. Hetfield! I was just on the phone with Mrs. Hetfield, telling her I'd keep an eye on you to make sure you don't cheat!"

Stuart's menacing aura dissipated a bit, and he dismissively said, "Get lost."

Orson bolted out of there, patting his chest once he was outside, thinking how dangerous it was to be around Mr. Hetfield, with the threat of getting whacked hovering over him at any moment.

Orson had barely escaped with his life, finding it odd. He had confessed to keeping an eye on Mr. Hetfield for Mrs. Hetfield, yet today, Mr. Hetfield hadn't flown into a rage.

What Orson didn't know was that Stuart, having returned home with blood on him, had his usual fierceness somewhat soothed for the moment. Was Morwenna Winslet worried about him cheating because she cared about him?

Stuart knew that when Morwenna said she liked him, it was in the most platonic sense possible, not romantic.

But her concern about him possibly cheating made him wonder if she had changed her mind.

Morwenna was oblivious to Stuart's thoughts.

She hadn't heard anything about Adelaide Gallagher from Orson.

She and Stuart contacted each other daily, barely exchanging words beyond reading stories together, never mentioning Adelaide.

Morwenna was unaware if Adelaide was still in Rosefrost Hollow.

Time flew by in a whirlwind of busyness.

Finally, a four-day holiday arrived.

Morwenna could go back home.

She was about to find out if Adelaide was still lingering in Rosefrost Hollow, feeling oddly heavy-hearted.

Yet, the thought of seeing Norbert Hetfield lifted her spirits.

She looked forward to meeting Norbert Hetfield but felt a heaviness at the thought of Stuart. Early in the morning, she called Norbert Hetfield, her joy eventually outweighing her sorrows.

After classes, she went to the library to borrow a couple of books before rushing back to her dorm to pack.

But she found her roommates were still there.

As Morwenna packed, she asked, "Aren't you guys going home?"

Lorna Lamont, acting as the spokesperson, said, "Morwenna, it's your turn to treat us to dinner this week. We were thinking, why not at your place? Of course, just for a day to avoid any inconvenience. Is that alright with your family?"

Morwenna was momentarily stunned.

Bringing friends home seemed a bit tricky.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Telling Norbert Hetfield about friends visiting should be fine; he wouldn't mind.

But she and Stuart were secretly married, a fact known by very few. If she brought friends to the mansion, could their secret be exposed?

Seeing Morwenna hesitate, Keira Phillips cautiously added, "It's okay, Wenna, if it's not convenient, we don't have to go."

Morwenna thought for a moment. Bringing friends over shouldn't be an issue as long as she didn't mention the marriage. She was just one of Norbert Hetfield's younger relatives, after all.

She smiled and said, "I just need to give my grandpa a heads up.'

"

Everyone knew Morwenna had a grandfather who, on the first day of school, had asked everyone to take good care of her.

If the welcome party had made Morwenna known to the entire student body, Norbert Hetfield's actions had made her familiar to all the faculty and staff.

Her roommates understood.

Dahlia Scott suggested, "Of course, we should let your grandpa know. On our way there, we could pick up some ingredients for our favorite dishes." Keira nodded eagerly, "We'll try our best not to be a bother."

Morwenna immediately called Norbert Hetfield.

Upon hearing Morwenna's proposal, Norbert didn't hesitate for a second, "Of course! Wenna, bring your friends over. I'll have Oswald Brown prepare some delicious food for you all. You can bring anyone you want, Wenna, even the whole class for a party. It's no problem at all."
