How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 449

Attorney Wesley, a well-respected figure in the circles of influence, was a close friend of Norbert. Whenever the younger members of the group encountered him, they would respectfully greet him as Wesley.

When he spoke, even the gathered journalists were left bewildered, not to mention Matthew and Brian.

Norbert's will? Why announce it here?

Brian and Matthew exchanged puzzled glances, wondering if Claude had anything to do with this. In their prior investigations, they discovered Claude held five percent of the shares that Norbert had somehow consolidated and handed over to Claude. Did Norbert leave a will to further benefit Claude?

Both Brian and Matthew felt a twinge of dissatisfaction but kept their thoughts to themselves. After all, the shares of the Hetfield Group were Norbert's to distribute as he pleased, and they couldn’t stop him.

Their purpose today wasn't to confront Claude but rather to address matters concerning Morwenna.

Attorney Wesley ignored Matthew and the others, turning instead to help Morwenna to her feet. With a sigh, he remarked, "Norbert wouldn't want to see you like this."

Morwenna stiffened slightly.

Standing beside her, Wesley's tone was stern as he addressed the group, "You think Morwenna was after money, that she was greedy for benefits?"

Brian felt an uneasy premonition. It seemed Wesley was here not for Claude, but for Morwenna.

Attorney Wesley's gaze swept over the room as he produced a document, announcing clearly, "Norbert Hetfield of the Hetfield Group entrusted me with his will. Upon his death, twenty percent of his shares in the Hetfield Group are to be inherited entirely by Morwenna!"

The statement burst like a bombshell.

Everyone was stunned!

Matthew found it incredulous that Norbert would leave such a significant portion of his estate to Morwenna, completely bypassing the Hetfield family.

Brian was equally shocked, unable to comprehend the reasoning. Had Morwenna somehow deceived Norbert? But Norbert, a shrewd businessman with deep foresight, wouldn’t be easily fooled. And if he had been deceived, why leave everything to her?
