Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1047

She knew the heavy metal mic had struck him hard, but she didn't offer a single word of comfort.

It was a bruise; he wasn't going to die!

Ethan had leaped onto the stage the second she threw it, but he had been a fraction of a second slower than Sebastian.

If he had been faster, he would have taken the hit for her. Or worse, collided with her and they both would have been struck.

Sebastian stumbled slightly from Lillian's forceful push. He looked at her, stunned that her first reaction was physical rejection.

"Are you okay?" he asked urgently.

Lillian's face was a mask of absolute ice, a stark contrast to the glowing speaker she had been moments ago.

Suppressing a suffocating wave of rage, her voice was glacial. "Control your wife."

Sebastian offered a bitter smile. "We're already filing for divorce.

Lillian, I came here today specifically for you..."

Before he could finish, Vice Chancellor Rhodes rushed onto the stage.

A guest being assaulted was bad enough, but having a billionaire VIP take the hit was a catastrophic nightmare.

Julian barked orders at the campus security guards, pointing frantically at Bella. "Grab her! Hold her down and call the police!"

Julian had no idea that the crazed attacker was actually Bella Ward, Sebastian's brand-new wife.

Bella was completely trapped, boxed in by a wall of furious college students. She couldn't escape even if she tried.

A few students recognized her, and a shocked murmur ripped through the crowd.

The optics were insane. The wife throws a weapon, and the husband throws his body in front of the target to save her.

And the desperate, yearning way Sebastian was looking at Lillian? It was impossible to miss.

"This is wild," a student whispered loudly. "Aren't they married? Talk about a house divided."
