The Hetfield clan just couldn't wrap their heads around Norbert Hetfield's ever-changing moods.

Everyone thought Morwenna had fallen out of favor, yet there was Norbert, personally dropping her off at school-a privilege none of the younger Hetfields had ever enjoyed. Just when Norbert had Stuart and Morwenna move out, making Rose and her group think they had finally won his favor, he went ahead and gifted Morwenna an incredibly valuable jade Buddha.

Lily had been enamored with that jade Buddha since she was a little girl, pestering Norbert to no end. But he wouldn't even let her look at it closely, let alone own it. Seeing it effortlessly handed over to Morwenna made Lily's blood boil.

She stepped forward, barely holding back her words. Quick as a flash, Rose pinched her, silencing her protest.

Once Norbert and Morwenna had moved to the dining area, Lily, lagging a bit behind, whispered bitterly to Rose, "Why'd you pinch me? Do you have any idea how much that jade Buddha is worth? Grandpa never gave it to me no matter how much I asked. Are we really less important to him than an outsider?"

Rose's eyes were cold and calculating. "Is that jade Buddha worth more than a stake in the Hetfield empire? Once Grandpa gives something away, it's gone for good. Instead of getting on his bad side over some trinket, we should focus on getting those two out of here."
