How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband

Chapter 392



All these were secrets the Hetfield family had kept hidden for years.

"Ugh!" A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.

Norbert swayed, on the verge of collapse. The vile and cruel wounds, though old, still bled and hurt as if they were fresh.

With his mouth filled with blood, Norbert's voice trembled, "Stuart, I'm... I'm so sorry."

Stuart, who seemed cold and heartless, held his breath. He rushed to the door, trying to call for a doctor.

Orson, who had been waiting just outside, instinctively looked up as the study door suddenly opened. Seeing Norbert covered in blood, Orson was completely stunned.

Then, in a panic, Orson jumped up, shouting even louder than Stuart, "Doctor, for God's sake, save him!"

After shouting, Orson ran back into the study, positioning himself in front of Norbert to keep Stuart away. He angrily confronted Stuart, "Mr. Hetfield, what have you done? If anything happens to Norbert, Mrs. Hetfield will never forgive you!"

Orson knew better than most the importance of Norbert to Morwenna. He had promised to look after Norbert for Mrs. Hetfield, but it seemed he had failed.

Stuart, somewhat dazed, ignored Orson's anger. He felt as if he was back in those days-locked in the basement, eating stale bread soaked with his own blood. They had put a small window in the basement, allowing him to see the outside world but never to leave.

One day, he saw that pair of wicked siblings holding a baby-a child of sin, born ill, which only led to more brutal treatment for Stuart. His dear aunt said, if her child wasn't happy, neither should he be. His dear father said, as long as you're happy, you can do whatever you want to that thing in the basement.

Until they all died.

That day, the woman he called mother came to see him. Through the small window, she saw the state he was in. His mother went mad, killing those vile siblings. He was saved.

The darkest secrets of the Hetfield family were exposed to the light. After the shock, Norbert suppressed all the truths. From then on, no one spoke of his parents, and Yara, the aunt, became just an aunt.

The old man, trying to make

amends, kept him close and raised

him. Those vile siblings weren't

entirely wrong; he was a devil,

stronger. He quickly surpassed

The family doctor had already entered the study. Without time to move Norbert elsewhere, he immediately started a blood transfusion and other emergency treatments right there in the study.

The younger members of the Hetfield family were also alarmed. But seeing Stuart, standing fiercely at the door of the study, none dared to approach. Only Norbert, as if overwhelmed by profound sorrow, seemed to have lost all will to live.

Orson, with eyes red from crying, kept muttering, "Norbert, you can't leave us, not yet. You've got bottles of bourbon hidden away that Mrs. Hetfield hasn't found yet. Mrs. Hetfield made you fudge, and secretly saved a little box for you. I'll give it all to you when you get better, no more hoarding. Mrs. Hetfield said we need to eat up those Cabbages in the garden before they bloom and turn bitter. She also said she'd be back as soon as vacation starts to see you..."

In Norbert's deathly still gaze, a flicker of light seemed to appear. Stuart, nearly consumed by memories, also seemed to regain a spark of life. Morwenna, oh! The one who entered the Hetfield family with such innocence and cleanliness!
