Chapter 76
He decided to give Morwenna another chance
But Stuart just took it for granted and never even asked Morwenna if she needed this chance.
Originally, Morwenna disliked Stuart
It was Stuart who, under the guise of kindness, had engineered a car accident that had made her heart flutter for him.
Morwenna was too naive, barely able to differentiate between love and gratitude.
Yet, Morwenna knew a love triangle couldn’t persist
She also knew that Norbert meant much more to her than Stuart ever could.
At that moment, Norbert was having heart troubles. Despite taking his medication, Morwenna was too worried to leave him alone in the
Seeing that Monvenna wouldn’t budge. Stuart approached with an overwhelming sense of authority, about to forcibly pull her out of the
car
Orson, seeing this, decisively started the car and stepped on the gas
Stuart was left fuming
Through the rearview miror, Orson saw Stuart’s dark expression but pretended not to notice. After all, his current charge was Morwenna. not Stuart, his former employer.
Once the car was on the move, Norbert, noticing Morwenna’s anxiety, reassured her, “Wenna, I’m alright now. Don’t worry. As for Stuart. you don’t have to be afraid. I’m here and he can’t just take you away. It’s okay even if you can’t live with Stuart.”
Norbert had been truly disappointed by what he’d seen that day.
His wife was drowning, yet Stuart chose to rescue some other woman.
How abandoned must the pure–hearted Wenna have felt at that moment?
He had once hoped that the genuine Morwenna might redeem Stuart. Now, it seemned he had been overly optimistic.
His past mistakes had already harmed Stuart. How could he allow them to harm Wenna too?
Morwenna widened her eyes. Was it really okay not to be with Stuart?
But she knew that Norbert’s greatest worry was Stuart, always hoping someone would genuinely care for him.
Her eyes brimming with tears, she apologized, “I’m sorry, Norbert. I haven’t done well enough
“You’ve done wonderfully.” Norbert reassured her. “It was my oversight. Since I brought you into the Hetfield Family, I will protect you as long as I live. If it doesn’t work out, I agree you can divorce Stuart.”
Finally, Morwenna couldn’t hold back any longer.
She burst into tears.
What should she do? How could she ever repay Norbert for his kindness?
“Norbert, why are you so good to me…” Tears choked her words.
The last time she had cried this hard was when she was five years old.
Her mother had passed away, and her father had disappeared.
At five, she didn’t know what to do and had cried loudly for a long time.
Later, she realized that no matter how loudly she cried, no one would care for her anymore.
So, she stopped crying.
Even last time, when she had to pay a hefty sum for the bluegrass, she just silently shed tears
But now, Morwenna cried like a child.
All those long–suppressed emotions were released with her sobs.
Norbert sighed and gently rubbed her head.
“In recent years, the Hetfield family has been through a lot. I almost thought I couldn’t go on, then I received your thank–you note from the mountains. It motivated me. If I died, who knows how many children like Wenna in the mountains would go without schooling? I kept going because of you.”
Morwenna looked up at Norbert with teary eyes.
