"Good heavens, how much are we spending this month?"
Before Morwenna had arrived, it seemed like Stuart had always lived this extravagantly.
Early on, Morwenna had realized that the Hetfield family was far wealthier than she had imagined.
When she first arrived and saw just a modest two-story house, she thought they were quite ordinary.
But how could ordinary family spend hundreds of thousands a month with orchids in the garden that cost thousands each?
Morwenna decided she should take on all household duties herself.
If she did it, they wouldn’t need to spend extra money.
Of course, even after taking on everyone's chores, Morwenna never thought about asking Stuart for money. She believed it was her duty as Stuart’s wife.
Stuart stepped out of the bathroom to the ring of his phone. It was Norbert calling.
Stuart thought he might ask about the car accident.
But as soon as he answered, he was met with a gruff voice, “I expect you and Wenna at the private dinner party in three days.”
“That’s not appropriate.”
“Why? Surely you’re not thinking of bringing Adelaide with you? Stuart, I was only displeased before when you were involved with Adelaide. But if you dare to mistreat Wenna now, I’ll definitely kill you!”
Norbert hung up without waiting for a reply.
Stuart raised an eyebrow. What got into Norbert?
He hadn’t even asked about the car accident. In the past, Norbert would rush over at the slightest injury to show his concern, clearly favoring Stuart within the family. What had changed today?
Could Morwenna have secretly told him about moving out of Windcharm Villas?
