How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband
Chapter 425

When Matt revealed the news, it was quite a shocker. The Morwenna he knew wasn't the kind to stab someone in the back. But the facts they uncovered painted a different picture Morwenna had betrayed Stuart. The group fell into a tense silence. Jack, looking serious, broke the silence, "The military's got some intel. Stuart's ventured into no-man's land, and it's risky." Sam, who usually kept to himself, added, "Even Stuart gets duped by a woman. While he's risking his neck, she's scheming. That's some nerve." Brian, with his charming demeanor, showed a flash of ruthlessness, "In my opinion, we shouldn't overthink it. A traitor doesn't deserve leniency. Let's replace some leverage and keep her under control." Despite his innocent appearance, Brian was the most ruthless among them.

Matt hesitated, "I think we should locate Stuart first. We don't know his perspective. Acting against Morwenna without his input doesn't feel right." Brian scoffed, "Do you really think Stuart's caught up in emotions? She's just a woman, and a traitor at that. Dealing with her would actually be helping Stuart!"

After hearing about Morwenna's betrayal, Fletcher, who had been silent, finally spoke, "No one is to touch Morwenna. Focus on replaceing Stuart. I'll handle Morwenna and uncover the truth." Jack frowned at Fletcher, "Why are you protecting Morwenna?" Brian, also frowning, said, "Something's off, Fletcher. Don't tell me you've fallen for her act?" Fletcher remained firm, "Morwenna means more to Stuart than you realize." Brian sneered, "What's so special about her? She's just a woman. Given some time, I could replace a thousand like her."

Sam tried to reason, "Fletcher, she's

already betrayed him. Why hold back? Even if Stuart were in Rosefrost Hollow, would he spare a traitor? Letting go of someone important might hurt, but it won't be the end of the world." Fletcher shook his head resolutely, "No! No one can touch Morwenna. To Stuart, she's not just a deep wound; she's

irreplaceable."

The others didn't understand, but Fletcher knew that Morwenna held a unique place in Stuart's heart. It wasn't just about affection. Stuart had invested all his trust and care in her, even when he was at his most vulnerable, she was the one he longed for. It wasn't just going to hurt; it could destroy him.

The group hadn't expected

Fletcher's unwavering stance. Matt, conflicted, finally said, "Maybe we shouldn't act hastily. Norbert might be in trouble, and Morwenna could have her reasons. Let's focus on replaceing Stuart first." Fletcher's determination made Matt inclined to give Morwenna the benefit of the

doubt.

Anyone who really knew Morwenna wouldn't see her as a villain. She was a girl who strived to improve and live courageously-how could she harm someone? Brian and the others let the matter drop. They knew the priority was replaceing Stuart, not fighting amongst themselves.

"Alright, let's concentrate on replaceing Stuart. Once he's back, Phineas and his antics won't stand a chance. But

how do we locate him?" Jack's go` the military involved, and Sam's using his underground connections. But with no signals and no signs of life, it's like searching for a needle in

a haystack."

Fletcher then suggested, "Use every resource to narrow down Stuart's whereabouts. I'll replace a way to see Morwenna. Stuart gave her a phone that can track his, even without a signal, if it's close enough."
