Chapter 190
Stuart suddenly made his way over to Reuben, a grin plastered on his face, and without warning,grabbed Reuben's hair and slammed his forehead against the wall.
There was a loud thud.
Reuben's head was bleeding, and he was so scared that he was practically frozen in fear.
Stuart, still holding onto Reuben's hair, sighed lightly, "When your elders are speaking, you keepquiet, got it?"
Reuben wanted to retort that Stuart was hardly his elder by any stretch of imagination!
But the look in Stuart's eyes was enough to silence him.
Phineas was furious, "This is outrageous! To think you'd assault someone right in front of us, you'relawless. Stuart, you're a monster, you belong in the sewers. The Hetfield family was just fine withoutyou. The moment you show up, everyone's luck turns sour!"
Sabrina, always sharp, felt a pang of sympathy for her son, but the moment Phineas mentioned'monster', she quickly tugged at his shirt.
And sure enough, Norbert's expression darkened. "Phineas, about the matter of Stuart'sconfinement years ago, I've always wanted to ask if you knew about it all along but chose to remainsilent."
Phineas' face turned ashen.
With a glance that seemingly aged years in a moment, Norbert's look of disappointment scannedover everyone. "And what about the rest of you? Did you all know? Choosing to turn a blind eye allfor the sake of maintaining a facade of dignity."
Yara, heavily pregnant, couldn't help but step back, regretting her presence.
Norbert clasped his chest as if heartbroken. "The Hetfield family, huh, this is the bunch I've given mywhole life to. We're supposed to be people, not beasts!"
The room fell silent, but Stuart was anything but quiet.
He casually threw Reuben to the ground, kicking him, dislocating his arm, crushing his fingers,sending blood everywhere.
Reuben's screams were the only sound in the room.
Phineas and Sabrina, seeing their son beaten to such an extent, lost all composure.
Phineas charged forward, "Stuart! You lunatic, stop it!"
But Stuart's loyal subordinates blocked Phineas and Sabrina, who tried to intervene.
Stuart continued his assault.

Stuart, who had been watching indifferently, eventually had to intervene.
If Stuart had waited two more days, until after Norbert’s demise, he could have struck a fatal blow.But Stuart didn't wait.
He always claimed he was heartless, that the extinction of the Hetfield family wouldn't make him batan eye.
