How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Stuart headed downstairs earlier than usual. There were some matters he didn't want Morwenna to see, things he needed to handle in advance. As soon as Stuart appeared, the entire Hetfield clan was there. It was as if they'd been waiting for him all along.

Norbert immediately stood up, his face changing colors as he asked, "Is Wenna alright?"

Stuart shook his head. Norbert sighed in relief. As long as Wenna was fine.

Stuart's tone was icy cold as he asked indifferently, "What about Adelaide?"

At the mention of that name, Norbert's demeanor turned equally cold: "Hospital. She's out of danger, just lost a lot of blood and is still unconscious."

"Good, she's not dead. We'll sue her for attempted rape."

Rose gasped, "Cousin, what are you saying? Adelaide is a woman."

Stuart glanced at Rose dismissively, "So what if she's a woman? Didn't I make myself clear? She drugged me, trying to tarnish my reputation." "But Adelaide is seriously injured."

"I was drugged and lost my senses. What's wrong with defending myself?"

"No... nothing's wrong."

In that moment, Stuart seemed calm, but his tone carried an icy chill that even made Rose feel like she was in a deep freeze. Rose didn't dare continue.

Yet, Stuart wasn't done. He walked over and kicked Rose, sending her tumbling to the ground. She winced in pain, her expression twisted, "Stuart, I just asked a question. Why would you hit me?"

Stuart, looking down at her, didn't even bother to glance her way, just turned to Norbert and said, "Old man, it's your choice. Do they leave, or do Princess and I move out of the family home?"

At this, Lily and the others couldn't stand it anymore. They'd just managed to move into the family mansion; how could they just leave?

Lily immediately said, "Cousin, what do you mean? We haven't offended you. Why are you trying to kick us out? We're blood relatives."

Stuart sneered, "Blood? What's there to be proud of in this filthy lineage?"

Everyone was stunned into silence. Norbert rebuked softly, "Stuart!"

Stuart gave Norbert some respect ore. Lily and the

others knew talking to Stuart was pointless Now, they could only hope the grandfather would take their side Grandpa stood with them, they might still have a chance to get Stuart to leave instead.

Rose and Lily exchanged looks, quickly understanding the situation. Rose whispered, "I have to stay to take care of Grandpa. I've been studying for my master's degree just to look after him. He raised me when I was little, and now can't just leave him."

Lily stood firmly behind her sister. Being kicked out now, they could only imagine how their mother would react and how difficult their days at home would be. Their father always wanted a son, and their mother cherished the new baby on the way the most. To their father's family, they might carry the Hetfield name, but in truth, they were

unwanted. Without the Hetfield

name, they were nothing.

Lily discreetly pinched the younger Ruby and Pearl. The two understood immediately and moved forward, grabbing Norbert's hands from both sides.

"Grandpa, what did we do wrong? Why does our cousin want to kick us out?"Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"Grandpa, I don't want to leave. Dad always hits me, I'm scared, I don't want to go back."

Only Ryan stood aside, his face stoic, silent. He truly didn't understand why the Hetfield family had to be like this.
