How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 462

Matthew had a point, Phineas had to admit. If it weren't for the recent upheaval, he might not have realized until after Norbert's passing that the shares would fall into Morwenna's hands.

Right now, the main goal was to find someone. There was no need to get entangled with Matthew.

Matthew, all smiles, said, "By the way, how is Norbert Hetfield? My grandfather sent me to check on him."

"My father is fine, no need for your concern."

Phineas suppressed the urge to have Matthew thrown out. But with the urgency of finding Morwenna, he didn't want to waste time bickering.

Matthew was slightly on edge, too. Bringing a crowd might make negotiations difficult, but coming alone felt risky, like inviting a beating.
