How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Chapter 346

"What do you think should be done, then?"

"Cousin Jack almost committed murder. Even if we don't throw him in jail, the Hetfield Group shouldn't remain under his control. I'm not after anything for myself; I just think with his kind of madness, it's only a matter of time before he destroys the Hetfield Group."

The family doctor had already come over, eyeing Adelaide's pitiful state, and added, "It's all external injuries; none are fatal."

Rose gave the family doctor a cold glare.

Is this really about being fatal?

This is about how Jack is a madman!

If it weren't for Morwenna, Norbert would have agreed.

But now, Norbert believed in Morwenna.

Norbert said sternly, "This woman drugged Jack. Can't you see it? And Rose, I have to ask, with Adelaide being such a schemer, why did you bring her back to the mansion? What were you planning?"

It was obvious to Rose, as it was to everyone present.

But she didn't want to bring it up, preferring to shift the blame onto Jack.

When Norbert mentioned Adelaide, Rose explained, "Grandpa, you're misunderstanding. I didn't have any ulterior motives. I just wanted her to teach Clare piano, that's all."

"Rose, I'm old, not senile. Such excuses might fool yourself but not me. If anyone dares to spread today's events, they're out of the Hetfield family!" The patriarch's command was absolute.

Rose fell silent.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

They all came back because they thought Norbert was on his deathbed, waiting to divide the inheritance.

Leaving the Hetfield family now could mean losing everything.

Norbert, clutching his chest, finally spoke, "Enough, disperse. I'll handle these matters."

"Grandpa!"

"Silence! As long as I'm alive, I'm the head of this family. Those of you who wish to lead the Hetfield family can wait until I'm gone."

Keegan stepped forward, ready to enforce Norbert's orders at a moment's notice.

Angered, Rose turned and left.

With Rose gone, Lily and the others followed, and Ryan left without a word.

Only after everyone had left did Norbert let out a heart-wrenching cough, spitting out blood and nearly collapsing.

Keegan, alarmed, rushed to support him, "Grandpa, your health..."

Norbert weakly ordered, "It's nothing. Clean up the blood and help me to my room to rest. Don't let anyone see."

With his last bit of strength, Norbert dismissed everyone.

He couldn't hold on any longer.

All he hoped was for Morwenna to calm Stuart down.

From what he had seen, there shouldn't be a problem.

Norbert had done his best to arrange everything. The only mistake in his understanding was that he didn't know Stuart and Morwenna were actually in a skam marriage, without any real marital refations.

He thought that since Morwenna hadn't

opted for a divorce and Stuart

had learned to love, they were el

already a true couple.

And Morwenna thought Stuart was just hurt and had lost his reason After all, even in his sleep, Stuart would become fierce; she believed calming him down would solve the issue.

In the study.

Under the strong influence of the drug, Stuart almost lost his sanity.

When facing Adelaide, he was brutal and bloodthirsty.

But with Morwenna, he was drowning in desire.

Morwenna thought a kiss would calm him.

The next moment, she was pinned on the study's sofa by Stuart.

Morwenna hadn't grasped the seriousness of the situation yet.

Still trying to comfort him, she said, "Stuart, it's okay now. I'll protect you. No one is going to hurt you anymore."

The next moment, Stuart leaned over her, tearing at Morwenna's clothes.

Morwenna was bewildered.
