The words from Norbert allowed Morwenna to finally relax.

Her biggest fear was disappointing Norbert, but now he reassured her that everything was okay.

Tears still hung on her cheeks, yet she managed a smile.

Norbert handed her a tissue to wipe her tears. "Oh, Wenna, why the tears and laughter? Don't be too hard on yourself about today. When Adelaide was young, she saved Stuart, but an accident happened which left her injured. Stuart tried to save her because he feared she wouldn't make it."

Morwenna stopped crying, her voice still choked up, "So Adelaide was Stuart's savior."

This made sense to her. It was like the gratitude Norbert held for her and the kindness she returned to him.

Norbert nodded, "In a way, yes. But the Gallagher family has benefited a lot from Stuart over the years. You could say they've nearly repaid their debt. Though Stuart remembers every favor and every slight." Curiosity got the better of her. "But, well, Adelaide seems to really like Stuart. Why didn't you allow them to get married back then?"

Morwenna can still remember Norbert blabbering about Stuart not being able to score a wife. That's when she had the guts to put herself out there, volunteering to tie the knot with Stuart. Norbert shook his head, "They weren't a good match. The people around Stuart can't afford any scheming. Besides, Stuart didn't like Adelaide."
