How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

"Could it really be like my cousin said? Is this a tainted lineage?"Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Everyone was waiting for Grandpa Norbert's decision.

Norbert closed his eyes for a moment, and when he reopened them, he said, "Stuart, you and Morwenna should move out."

After what happened yesterday, the stress caused him to cough up blood, and his health was deteriorating rapidly. Even doubling his medication couldn't mask his condition anymore. He didn't want Morwenna to see him like this.

Norbert had never feared death, but he was worried about how Morwenna would cope.

When Rose and the others heard Norbert's decision, they couldn't hide their glee.

See, what was Stuart so proud of? He was just a madman, and Grandpa must have seen through him, that's why he asked Stuart to leave. Rose felt that the kick she received earlier was now worth it. She doubted even her mother had imagined they could push Stuart and Morwenna out.

Ryan's eyes widened in disbelief. He thought it was possible for Grandpa to drive his cousin and the rest away, but Grandpa had always been genuinely kind to his sister-in-law. How could he ask her to leave?

Stuart didn't ask any questions, just said emotionlessly, "Fine, but nobody is to tell Morwenna about this. She's supposed to be in school. After dinner, I'll take her away. Next month, during the holiday, I'll have her stay at Windcharm Villas."

Stuart turned and went upstairs.

Norbert shrugged off Ruby and Pearl's hands, his expression weary. It was clear that Norbert was unhappy, and no one dared to further furrow his brow. After all, they were the ones who remained.

When Stuart went upstairs, Morwenna had already gotten ready, changing her clothes, and was slowly walking out, leaning against the wall for support. Seeing Stuart come in, she quickly dropped her hand from the wall, trying to save face.

Morwenna huffed, "Stuart! I was supposed to be in school today. I didn't take a leave of absence or go to school. What am I supposed to do?"

It was already eight in the evening. Who knows how they had been running around for a day and a night...

Stuart scooped Morwenna up with one arm, comforting her, "Don't worry, I've already asked for a leave of absence for you. After dinner, I'll take you to school."

Morwenna's face slightly brightened. She had never been late or left early, and she had never skipped school without a reason before.

Stuart carried Morwenna downstairs.

As soon as they reached the bottom, Norbert greeted them with a smile, "Morwenna, you must be hungry. Come, I've prepared all your favorite dishes today."

Morwenna quickly pushed on Stuart, signaling him to put her down. After what happened yesterday,

Morwenna was too embarrassed to let Stuart carry her. Insisting, Stuart

had no choice but to letenna

down.

Morwenna's legs wobbled slightly, and Stuart supported her as they walked over. Blushing like a bride meeting her in-laws for the first time, she greeted, "Grandpa."

"Ah!" Norbert's face lit up with a smile. He took off the jade pendant he had worn for decades and handed it to Morwenna.

"This is my lucky charm, and now I'm giving it to my granddaughter-in-law."

"No, Grandpa, I can't take your lucky charm."

"Take it, take it. I have a few more, it's just a small token of affection."

Morwenna, unaware of the full story, carefully accepted it.

But everyone in the Hetfield family knew there were no "few more." This pendant was unique. Norbert had worn that precious item for thirty years its value aside, its

significance to Grandpa e

irreplaceable. And yet, he had just given it to Morwenna?
