Standing too close, her dress got splattered with blood, and the small bottle of whiskey she was holding dropped to the ground, shattering into pieces.

Norbert scolded in a low voice, "What are you screaming for? Shut up!"

Lily covered her mouth, her face turning pale, not daring to make another sound.

The others were also visibly shaken, each of them too scared to utter a word.

Norbert, with blood at the corner of his mouth, looked at them seriously and said, "Since your parents sent you back here, they must have informed you about my health. I'm not asking you to leave, but there's one thing: my health condition must not be disclosed to Wenna."

Everyone exchanged puzzled looks, unsure why.

Why keep it a secret from Morwenna? Was it because Morwenna had fallen out of favor?

Norbert did not provide a reason but commanded sternly, "Got it?"

"Yes, yes."
