The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 211

Malvina blinked, not quite catching what Ulrich had muttered under his breath.

Noella craned her neck from the passenger seat to look back at Ulrich and Malvina. “Ulrich, you haven’t been home for two days, thinking of heading back?”

Ulrich quickly whipped out his phone and used the camera as a mirror. “Talk about professional courtesy, they didn’t go for my face! All good then, let’s head back.”

The Pollack Mansion was just in the Dragon Tower opposite to them. As Noella reached the entrance, she saw Annie, her clothes stained with blood, her face etched with worry.

“Ms. Noella! Boss is in his room, III take you to him.”

The Pollack Mansion was a stark contrast to the lively Schnabel Manor, eerily quiet, with the sound of the courtyard fountain echoing clearly.
