Tensions were about to boil over.


    Adide was itching for a showdown, hoping Stuart would teach Morwenna a lesson.


    However, Stuart, usually cold and reckless, managed to keep his temper in check and demanded


    icily, “Call your manager over.”


    A sales associate hurried upstairs and fetched the manager.


    Stuart cut straight to the chase, “Who delivered her gown?”


    Not wanting to offend Stuart, the manager quickly replied, “Mr. Hetfield, Ms. Winslet''s gown was


    sent by your grandfather.”


    Stuart shifted his aura subtly, raising his eyebrows slightly.


    Upon hearing this, Morwenna softened her expression. It was Norbert after all.


    Norbert must have worried she wouldn’t have a gown for the g and had arranged everything for


    her.


    Morwenna perked up instantly, looking like a child receiving a gift from a beloved elder.


    But the gift was toovish and she felt undeserving.


    Meanwhile, Adide was nearly sick with anger.


    Her face darkened as she snapped one of her long nails.


    She had thought Morwenna shamelessly clung to a sugar daddy.


    How could it be Norbert who sent the gown?


    Why would Norbert send such an expensive gown to a mere maid?


    Adide waspletely distraught.


    She suddenly pulled a woman from behind her.


    “Stuart, there was a little incident today between Jemima and Ms. Winslet. Ms. Winslet kicked


    Jemima who has beenining of stomach pain. As for attending the g tonight, what if


    Norbert saw her like this?”


    The woman in the ck dress, with a footprint clearly visible, shyly called out, “Stuart.”


    Morwenna also looked over.


    The girl had lost all her earlier arrogance in front of Stuart.


    Adide continued, “It’s true. Jemima and her friends started it. They’re just kids and can be rude,


    but Ms. Winslet shouldn’t have retaliated so harshly. Maybe we should send Jemima home.”


    Stuart was growing impatient.


    What unnecessary drama over nothing!


    Jemima was Fletcher’s younger sister.


    Thus, Stuart was a bit more patient with her than he would be with others.


    Stuart turned to Morwenna, “Why did you hit her?”


    The kick to Jemima and another girl''s hair had been cut all pointed to Morwenna.


    When Stuart asked, Adide smugly watched Morwenna, feeling like they were on one side and


    Morwenna on the other.


    A bitter feeling swelled up in Morwenna''s heart. Didn''t Stuart trust her?


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    She had been moderate in her actions, only enough to cause pain, not internal injury.


    Stuart didn’t even ask what had happened and had taken Adide’s word for it, questioning why


    she hit someone.


    Morwenna dimmed her eyes as she looked into Stuart’s eyes and softly said, “Stuart, you said it’s


    okay to fight back if I’m bullied.”


    Stuart paused, his gazending on Jemima, “I’m only asking once. Did Morwenna bully you?”


    Jemima, on the verge of tears and nervous, understood Adide’s signals but was too afraid to lie.


    She stuttered, “No, it was us who started it. She was just defending herself.”


    Adide internally cursed their ineptitude.


    Hearing this, Stuart got the gist of what had happened and scolded, “Stop causing trouble outside.


    Get yourself home.”


    “Yes, I’m going,” Jemima bolted, not at all looking like someone with a stomach ache.


    Adide hadn’t expected the situation to be dismissed so lightly.


    Even if Morwenna had acted in self-defense, the person she hit was Fletcher’s sister.


    She had tried her best to keep Morwenna from attending the g.
