How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Stuart's face darkened, a storm brewing in his gaze that silenced the room instantly.

Even Lorna, who'd had a bit too much to drink, seemed to sense the danger and clamped her mouth shut.

Morwenna was about to explain that she'd merely married into the Hetfield family; it wasn't like she had free reign over Stuart's finances. She wanted to clarify that.

But before she could get the words out, Stuart suddenly grabbed her wrist, "Morwenna, you focus on your studies. As Stuart's wife, you do not need to work part-time at the university, nor do you need to skimp and save."

"It's not that, Stuart. I just thought to use my free time to make a little extra cash, to pay back the money I borrowed from you."

Under Stuart's icy demeanor, Lorna couldn't help but whisper, "How much does she owe, anyway? We're all family here. Do we really need to keep score? Morwenna's been delivering packages on campus, lugging hundreds of pounds a day, just to make a few bucks, and she's getting bullied for it."

Stuart's gaze snapped to Lorna, his eyes narrowing, "Who's been bullying her?"

Startled, Lorna burped from the alcohol and found herself momentarily speechless.
