Chapter 23
The four Schnabel brothers widened their eyes.
Elara, you’re totally cheating here!
Ulrich flashed a meaningful smile, his eyes shimmering with ripples like a serene autumn pond, as his gaze landed on the hairpin atop Noella’s head.
On the hairpin he had carved himself, he had also stealthily inscribed: “I love you!”
The butler hurried forward, “Mr. Schnabel, Palmer has sent over two gifts.”
Tristan scratched his head. “Two gifts? Should be one for the elders and one for Noella, right? After all, Noella and him are still engaged. The kid sure knows how to curry favor!”
Sienna looked puzzled. “But Palmer doesn’t know Noella’s back home, so how come he’s sending her a gift?*
The butler explained, “One’s for you, Mr. and Mrs. Schnabel, and one for Ulrich, as a thank–you for saving Sexton Pollack.”
“When did I save Sexton?”
Noella knew full well that the gift from the Pollack family was meant for her but they mistook Ulrich for her.
She discreetly tugged Ulrich’s hand and whispered, “Ulrich, just take it.”
Ulrich’s heart nearly melted when a soft little hand gripped his suddenly!
Thinking it over, since Noella had been at the hospital lately, she might know the scoop. Tossing all rational thought aside, Ulrich, with a genteel smile, played along. “That was me. I helped Sexton with a prescription before. Mr. Pollack is too kind.”
Sienna playfully scolded, “You didn’t even give us a heads–up. You almost had me thinking Mr. Pollack got the wrong person. We’ve invited Mr. Pollack to Noella’s birthday party; they can meet the kids then!”
Noella was confused. What’s that got to do with me? Engagement? When?”
Seeing how the Schnabels were all hyped up, Noella didn’t have the heart to burst their bubble.
