Morwenna''s thoughts weren''t filled with the melodies of a grand piano; instead, they were consumed by thoughts of Melvin.


    Snapping back to reality, she shook her head and said, "No, I wasn''t thinking about that. Stuart, why are you back so early today?" Usually, Stuart woulde back from hispany, Hetfield Enterprises, quitete, but today, he had returned after barely an hour. Stuart replied nonchntly, "Things have been slowtely."


    At Hetfield Enterprises, Stuart''s three assistants were buried in work. Ever since Stuart made a move against the Roberts family, their workload had skyrocketed. However, Mr. Hetfield himself only took care of a few major decisions and left the rest to his team.


    Rumor had it that Ms. Winslet had taken a month off.


    The assistants had braced themselves for another night of overtime.


    Falling in love might not cost Mr. Hetfield money, but it sure was costing them their sanity!


    Even Morwenna, usually so naive, couldn''t help but cast doubtful nces at Stuart.


    Could managing such a massivepany really leave him with free time?


    At that moment, Adide and Ruby emerged from the music room, their piano practice over. They were discussing sheet music and what to focus on for their uing exams.


    Noticing Morwenna looking their way, they spoke with an air of casual confidence.


    Their attitude was like unting a foreignnguage in front of someone who couldn''t understand it, barely concealing their disdain and superiority. To them, Morwenna was a country bumpkin-probably never even touched a piano before.


    Adide had a realization. Stuart wasn''t one to be swayed by beauty alone. How long could serving beautyst?


    She had nearly deprived herself of a joyful childhood, dedicating herself to learning and excellence. How could she possibly lose to someone like Morwenna, who seemed to know nothing?


    Society often says that marriages should be between equals because differences in education, upbringing, and experiences can lead to a disconnect over time.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    But Adide knew she matched Stuart''s tastes, could keep up with his conversation, and had gotten to know his friends. She had molded her soul to fit his—something Morwenna could neverpete with.


    Convinced of her conclusion, Adide found a reason to stay calm in front of them.


    Morwenna''s ce by Stuart''s side was temporary. Sooner orter, Stuart would be hers.


    No one was more suited for Stuart than she was.


    With that thought, Adide resumed

    her role, guiding Ruby in piano, critiquing Pearl Hetfield''s paintings, ying chess with Lily, and even baking treats for everyone.


    They unted their superiority as socialites in front of Morwenna.


    Rose observed all this and thought Adide was truly astute.


    Appearing non-confrontational, yet constantlyparing herself to others.


    Such a versatile woman was indeed a fitting match for the Hetfields, perhaps even more so than Morwenna.


    The younger Hetfields didn''t care for Morwenna, as she didn''t try to ingratiate herself with them. Other women, including Adide, would tter and charm, knowing they were dealing with the Hetfields.


    But Morwenna, with no connections or background to speak of, treated them like ordinary people.


    Morwenna paid no mind to Adide''s actions, her attention divided between a book and the TV.


    Stuart, enjoying a rare moment of leisure, joined Morwenna,

    Morwenna noticed that Stuart hadn''t looked at Adide at all.


    This time, it seemed, things were truly different.


    Adide could no longer wedge herself between Stuart and Morwenna as she had before.

    Just then, a sound came from outside.
