The Killer Queen ( Noella Briony ) novel Chapter 412

Malvina's heart skipped a beat!

Could it be something wrong with the baby because of her health, and Noella was too scared to tell her?

Was that why she was whispering to Ulrich here?

"Ulrich, you need to take extra good care of Malvina these next few days. She's running a fever and can't take any medication, so be extra cautious."

"I know, Noella... I was practically out of my mind with worry when I saw Malvina had a fever. I thought something had happened to her and the baby. I even started thinking about how I'd explain to Malvina if we lost the baby!"

"Thankfully, both she and the baby are fine!"

Noella, hearing a breath behind the door, guessed it was probably Malvina.

She raised an eyebrow and asked, "In your heart, Ulrich, who is more important, Malvina or the baby?"

Though it seemed like a trivial question, Noella knew Malvina would care about the answer!

Ulrich paused, then chuckled softly.

"To be honest, I never thought we'd have a baby, but the idea of having a little one that resembles her makes me incredibly happy!"

"Of course, she's more important. Even if we have a baby, the baby is important because it's hers. That's what makes the baby important!"

"In essence, she's the reason the baby matters!"

"Babies are important, but it's because they are hers that they matter!"

"Actually, at this stage, a baby isn't really considered a 'person' in a societal or existential sense, just a cluster of cells. I don’t have much tangible feeling about this, but as a mother, you might feel the existence of the baby more profoundly."

"I'm just really happy and feel so blessed that I'm getting married to Malvina!"

Noella, seeing Ulrich in this light, also felt the unnameable joy and happiness radiating from him!

For Ulrich, the real excitement came from Malvina being pregnant and the prospect of welcoming a lovely baby into the world, soon to be celebrated in marriage!

Standing outside the door, Malvina gently pushed it open.

"Are you guys here?"

Ulrich immediately went to her, lifting her into his arms.

"Why did you come out? Couldn't find me? Next time, just ring the bell, and I'll be right there! Let's get you back to rest now!"

Malvina, wrapping her arms around Ulrich's neck, whispered softly.

"I'm not a patient... Noella sweetheart is watching!"

"It's alright, Noella's family! Noella, Palmer said he'll be here any minute, Malvina and I will head off first!"

Noella, amused, waved her hand, "Sure, got it."

Leaning on Ulrich, Malvina mumbled, "I'm really scared of getting married, afraid it'll be like my dad..."

"I know. If you're that scared, we don't have to get married. I can talk to my parents about it."

Even at this moment, Ulrich didn't want Malvina to feel pressured.

"You don't understand! I really do want to marry you."

"When you proposed last time, I almost said yes. Later, avoiding you, I was worried I couldn't resist asking when we'd get married, which would be embarrassing."

Ulrich had thought Malvina regretted agreeing to date him!

But it was because of this!

Malvina nervously traced circles on Ulrich's coat.

"Dr. Schnabel, when you confessed to me, I was so happy! But I'm worried you won't be able to tolerate my difficult personality..."

Malvina, with her personality, only felt unworthy in front of someone she genuinely liked!

After placing her on the bed, Ulrich leaned close to Malvina's face, whispering, "I understand. Your eyes never lie to me."

No matter what was said, the eyes never deceive.
