Expected trouble arose between fellow and wife (7)
I believe the answer is:
foresaw
'expected' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'trouble arose between fellow and wife' is the wordplay.
'trouble' indicates anagramming the letters.
'between' is an insertion indicator.
'fellow' becomes 'f' (abbreviation - of a society etc.).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'wife' becomes 'w'.
'arose' is an anagram of 'oresa'.
'f'+'w'='fw'
'oresa' put within 'fw' is 'FORESAW'.
(Other definitions for foresaw that I've seen before include "Anticipated" , "Predicted" , "Expected" .)
