After Sabrina made her comment, Morwenna remained silent. However, Yara, who was always quick to stir trouble, couldnât help but make a snide remark.
âOh, Sabrinaâs so lucky, having had two boys. But even two don't quite stack up to Stuart,â she mocked.
Far more astute and less inclined to such pettiness, Sabrina responded smoothly, âItâs not a problem. They are part of the Hetfield family, and being part of such a grand family, having a share is quite enough.â
Her words were cleverly veiled. On the surface, they seemed calm, but they subtly pointed out that her sons were true Hetfields by blood, whereas Yara, having married into another family, could bear as many children as she wanted, but they wouldnât carry the Hetfield name.
Yara was quick to anger. âWhat are you implying, Sabrina? Even if I married out, I remain the darling of the Hetfield family. I have my place here whenever I want.â
Sabrina maintained her composure. âYara, donât get me wrong. Youâre pregnant and should focus on taking care of yourself.â
But it only enraged Yara further. With four daughters and another child on the way, she felt reduced to a mere childbearing machine.
Slamming her cutlery down, she turned to Phineas. âPhineas, did you hear that? Sheâs been targeting me since she married you. Youâre my brother, and sheâs an outsider. How can you let her treat me like this?â
Troubled by the escalating argument, Phineas frowned. âThis isnât the way to behave in front of the children. Sabrina, you might be more accommodating toward Yara.â
A flicker of irritation crossed Sabrina's eyes. She was always the one putting up with stuff and stepping down, and she was sick of it.
Standing up abruptly, she declared, âFine, keep your close sibling bond. Iâm just an outsider, right? Iâll leave!â
Morwenna was confused by the sudden outburst of conflict.
She had no emotional ties to the rest of the Hetfield family and listened dispassionately until she suddenly cried out, âNorbert!â
Clutching his chest, Norbert collapsed backward.
Horrified, Morwenna scrambled up, knocking her chair over. âQuick, call a doctor!â
Phineas rushed to his fatherâs side.
Meanwhile, the quarrel between the two women raged on.
âItâs all your fault, Sabrina! If you cause any harm to Dad, Iâll make Phineas divorce you!â Yara shouted, furious.
Sabrina finally snapped. âOh, itâs always my fault, right? Just because youâre unwanted by your in-laws, you think you can come here and rule over the Hetfield family as if youâre still the untouchable Miss Hetfield?â
âHow dare you speak to me like that!â Yara screamed, her face red with anger.
The room was in chaos.
The family doctor arrived quickly, his face filled with concern. He treated Norbert in no time and announced, âMr. Norbertâs heart is acting up. Heâs stable for now but not out of danger. We need to get him to a hospital immediately.â
As Morwenna watched Norbertâs pale face and lips, a cold fear gripped her heart. She thought of Melvin and felt a deep dread about Norbertâs condition.
The argument continued unabated around her.
Driven to her limit, Morwenna shouted, âEnough! Be quiet!â
The room fell silent.
No one expected such boldness from Morwenna, a recent addition to the family with no significant standing.
Sabrina fell silent, lost in thought.
Feeling humiliated, Yara lowered her voice. âWho do you think you are talking to? We are your elders.â
Without turning, Morwenna's voice carried a chilling edge. âIf anything happens to Norbert, I may not do much to you, but Iâm sure Stuart wonât let it go.â
Yara fell silent. She wasnât afraid of Morwenna, but the thought of Stuart, unpredictable and volatile, made her pause.
As the family doctor hurriedly prepared Norbert for transport to the hospital, the Hetfield family faced a moment of uncertain silence, the echoes of the conflict hanging heavily in the air.
