How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Morwenna paused, a slight smile playing at the corners of her mouth.

The day-shift caregiver froze and burst into anger. "Keira, are you defying your mother? If you dare go with her, I'm calling your mother right now."

Keira turned pale.

Morwenna returned to the bedside, scooped Keira up, and walked out.

"As far as I'm concerned," Morwenna said, "if your mother finds out, I'll be the one she hears from. I can't believe she'd allow a caregiver to mistreat her daughter like this."

"What are you talking about? When have I ever mistreated her? Don't put words in my mouth!" The caregiver stepped forward, trying to snatch Keira back. "Her mom left her in my hands, that means I have every right to take care of her. Let her go!"

But Morwenna didn't let go.
