Adelaide watched as Stuart and Morwenna came downstairs together.
Stuart had that just-woke-up look about him, and it was clear he had been roused from sleep.
But how could it be?
Stuart hadnât lashed out at Morwenna.
Everyone in the Hetfield family saw it and found it unbelievable.
Had Stuart really mellowed over the past couple of years?
Only Norbert knew the truth; Stuart had indeed changed.
Morwenna, unable to contain her urgency, tried to appear calm as she addressed Norbert, âNorbert, I... I need to step out for a bit.â
Norbert, puzzled, suggested, âWhy not have dinner first and then go?â
Morwenna shook her head, âItâs something important, I'll skip dinner. Stuart will come with me.â
Norbert, hearing this and seeing Stuartâs acquiescent demeanor, couldnât help but smile broadly.
His grandson was rarely seen helping out like this.
Ever accommodating, Norbert said, âAlright, then take your time, Wenna. If you need anything, just ask me.â
Morwenna nodded and was about to leave with Stuart when Adelaide suddenly blocked her path. âMorwenna, are you trying to embarrass me? You know I needed to speak with Stuart, yet youâre taking him away.â
Morwenna explained, âNo, itâs really important.â
âItâs something you can do on your own, I need Stuart.â
âI know you want to host a party at Windcharm Villas, right? Here, Iâll give you the keys to Windcharm Villas. You can arrange it however you like.â
Morwenna handed over the keys she had forgotten to return to Stuart, directly to Adelaide.
Adelaide seemed even more furious, grabbing Morwennaâs blouse, âMorwenna! What right do you have to make decisions for Stuart?â
Windcharm Villas was Stuartâs domain.
None of them were even supposed to stay there.
What right did Morwenna have to hand over the keys to Windcharm Villas?
Was this her way of showing her upper hand?
Morwenna was truly irritated now. Didnât Adelaide come here about the party at Windcharm Villas? She had already given her the keys, what more did she want?
She felt Adelaide was unreasonable, always picking fights with her over Stuart for no good reason.
Morwenna had truly had enough and was not in the mood for further bickering.
She yanked her arm free from Adelaideâs grip and warned sternly, âAdelaide, Iâm only tolerating you because youâre ill, not because Iâm afraid of you.
If you stop me again, youâll get a beating!â
âYou wouldnât dare! Morwenna, youâre the extra one coming between us, Iâve been by Stuartâs side for five years, do you understand?â
Morwenna held onto Stuartâs hand tightly.
The heat from his palm made her all the more agitated.
âEnough! Adelaide, cut it out. Whoâs the extra here? I am Stuartâs legal wife. No matter what his feelings are, right now, he is mine!â
The room fell silent!
Stuart, who had been quiet, slightly lowered his head to look at the fuming Morwenna.
âAm I really hers?â he thought.
Stuartâs fingertips twitched slightly.
Adelaide looked around at everyone around in disbelief.
Then, she turned back to Stuart, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face, âStuart, this must be a joke, right? This isnât funny at all. How could you possibly marry someone else?â

He turned to Adelaide, his voice detached, âItâs true.â
