How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 196

The room fell into a hushed silence.

No one had expected Morwenna to react like that.

Inside, Stuart breathed a sigh of relief.

Morwenna didn't mind his ruthlessness. That was all that mattered...

After her speech, Morwenna's gaze softened as she turned to Norbert, her cold eyes warming up. "Norbert, let me accompany you to rest. Stuart can handle these matters."

Pain and disappointment must be weighing heavily on Norbert's heart, and Morwenna felt a deep sympathy for him.

Norbert nodded in agreement.

Ignoring everyone else, Morwenna helped Norbert up the stairs.

Once upstairs, as had become their routine, she heated some water for Norbert to soak his feet.

Norbert, with a kindly voice, said, "Alright, Wenna, you should get some rest too. I'm fine."

But Morwenna felt uneasy. She didn't want to leave; she wanted to stay by his side.

She remembered Melvin always insisting he was fine, right up until he wasn't.

Seeing her worry, Norbert tried to put on a stern face. "I'm off to sleep now, girl. I'm a light sleeper, and I can't doze off with you standing there."

Left with no choice, Morwenna reluctantly left, but not before turning back to ask, "Norbert, you're really okay, right?"

Norbert nodded, "I'm fine."

Only then did Morwenna leave the room, gently closing the door behind her.

Once Morwenna had left, Norbert got up and began to write on a piece of paper.

It was a will.

"I've lived my life holding on to honesty and generosity, but in the end, I've realized I've messed up in so many ways. Upon my death, my shares will be left to..."

The room downstairs fell into silence the moment Morwenna left.
