Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1609: I Like You

The Prince of Carloxi actually grabbed her wrist. Have their relationship developed to the stage of skin-on-skin intimacy?

Morgan Ashworth looked at Prince Carloxi with eyes full of darkness, "I think the one who should let go is you!"

Morgan Ashworth had increased the pressure, directly causing Willow Crawford pain. Willow frowned and cried out in agony, "President Ashworth, let go quickly, you’re hurting me!"

Feeling heartache when Willow cried out in pain, Prince Carloxi was immediately distressed. "Sir, did you not hear what Willow said? You’re hurting Willow. How could you be so rough, to treat Princess Willow in such a manner?"

Originally intending to ease his grip when he heard her cry of pain, Morgan Ashworth was hardened in response to Prince Carloxi’s protective nature and reprimands, "You heard her cry out too. Why don’t you let go? If you let go, then she wouldn’t be hurt."

"You!" Prince Carloxi didn’t want to argue with this rude man. He intended to snatch Willow away.

But with a swift, accurate, and forceful pull, Morgan Ashworth drew Willow’s delicate body into his embrace.

He snatched Willow away from Prince Carloxi’s hand.

Willow, unable to steady herself, fell directly into his arms. He immediately reached out to support her slender waist to steady her, "Are you okay?"

Willow shot him a glare without any good humor, "President Ashworth, if you could stay away from me, then I would certainly be okay."

Morgan Ashworth, "..."

Prince Carloxi looked at the intimate posture of the two, "Willow, who is this person?"

"Willow, tell him who I am!"

Feeling a bit speechless, Willow looked at Prince Carloxi, "He’s Morgan Ashworth, President Ashworth. He’s also my son’s daddy, and my... ex-husband."

Prince Carloxi was shocked as he looked at Morgan Ashworth, not anticipating that this man was Willow’s ex-husband.

"This... President Ashworth, you’re already Willow’s ex-husband, a thing of the past with her. Why are you still entangled with Willow now?"

Morgan Ashworth dominantly kept Willow secured in his arms, asserting his sovereignty, "This is between her and me; it’s not your place to interfere."

"Very well then, Willow, I like you." Prince Carloxi directly confessed to Willow.

Willow hadn’t anticipated this turn of events, her mouth opening wide in surprise, "Prince Carloxi, you..."

"Willow, I like you. I’ve liked you since I was a child, for many years. Previously, when you were with Rosen, I could only bless you silently. Later, I heard you chose a poor guy, who seemed to be this President Ashworth. I don’t want to miss out on you anymore. Let’s be together."

Willow and Prince Carloxi were childhood friends. Previously, he often played with her and Rosen; the three were friends, and he secretly liked her.

"I..." Willow wanted to speak.

"Willow, you don’t need to say anything. Just listen to me. I like you and will certainly treat you well in the future, healing all the wounds in your heart. I’ll also regard Joy as my own, fulfilling the role of Joy’s new daddy. You needn’t worry about these things." Prince Carloxi confessed with deep emotion.

At this point, Morgan Ashworth’s hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist. This Prince Carloxi dared to imagine being the new dad of his son?

Did he believe he was dead?

Morgan Ashworth could already envision it—Prince Carloxi with one arm around Willow and holding his son’s hand with the other.
