Malvina never expected that her casual inquiries about the Schnabel family, combined with her polite Interest in Ulrich’s medical work, would lead him to believe she was fascinated by the field of medicine.

Did she really look like someone who could understand all those medical terms?

Luckily for her, a nurse poked her head in to summon the ever–chatty Ulrich, “Dr. Schnabel, there’s an emergency patient!”
