Morwenna, amidst the turmoil of the Hetfield family, was the most innocent of them all. It all began
when Norbert forcefully arranged for Morwenna to marry Stuart, leading Stuart to treat her terribly.
The rest of the Hetfields, influenced by the strained rtionship between Stuart and Morwenna,
grew to despise her as well. Everyone knew Morwenna was meless, but what difference did it
make?
Phineas had his own ns, needing to use Morwenna to secure something he desired. Upon
hearing Lorna''s words, he let out a mockingugh, "Do you really think Stuart loves Morwenna?
That''s naive. Stuart, that cold-hearted beast, doesn''t know the first thing about love. Once he''s
back, swamped with work, he won''t spare a second for Morwenna."
Lorna hadn''t even had time to retort before Phineas, still smirking, turned to Morwenna. "Speaking
of which, Morwenna, I''ve got a hrious piece of news for you. I''m sure you''ll be thrilled to hear it."
Regardless of whether Morwenna was listening, Phineas cruelly revealed, "Do you know why Stuart
kept you initially? Norbert forced you on Stuart, who didn''t want you at all. He would''ve kicked you
out if not for Norbert''s threats. But do you know why he changed his mind and kept you?"
Lorna felt Morwenna stiffen in her arms. Without a word from Morwenna, Lorna snapped back,
"What''s it to you? Are you the neighborhood watch of the Pacific Ocean? Mind your own business!"

Phineas, unfazed by Lorna''s sharp response, continued with a predatory gaze, "Because, you see,
Stuart suffers from severe insomnia, and you, somehow, alleviate that for him. He doesn’t fancy
you; he sees you as nothing more than a sleeping pill."
Morwenna''s pupils dted, a sign of her growing fear. Phineas, filled with malice, pressed on, "Don''t
believe me? Let me jog your memory about what happened after Stuart asked you to move out.
Remember the ssic damsel in distress, saved from a car crash? Hah, you don''t know, do you?
The crash was all Stuart''s doing. Trust my nephew to stoop to such levels for his goals. Only a fool
like you would take it all at face value!"
Back then, Stuart''s actions didn''t seem to ce much importance on Morwenna. Phineas, while
digging into Morwenna''s entry into the Hetfield family, stumbled upon these details. He had
dismissed them, thinking Stuart to be the unfeeling monster he assumed. Even in marriage, this
woman couldn''t leverage Stuart. However, Stuart''s behavior towards Morwenna had evidently
changed.
Now, as Phineas intended to send Morwenna to fetch some documents, revealing these truths was
meant to extinguish her hope in Stuartpletely. Morwenna, her pupils previously narrowed, now
appeared shattered. She nced at Lorna in bewilderment. Suddenly, she struggled out of Lorna''s
embrace and limped over to Norbert, curling up beside the dying old man. It was as if the entire
world was against her, and only this frail figure remained her sanctuary.
