Chapter 397: Friends and Family
Mineah smiled as she looked at the rising sun. Another season had ended with summer now fast approaching, and yet Mineah still felt like days were passing by more slowly than she would’ve hoped.
Gently caressing her growing bump, she murmured, "You’re growing fast inside of me, Alya." She was six months pregnant now, and her stomach was visibly showing.
"Hmm... We’re not yet sure if she’s really a girl, Mine," Nikolai pointed out with a soft hum as he sat beside her with a platter of cut fruits.
"I can feel her inside of me, Lai. Our baby is a girl," she insisted. "I can see through someone’s life essence, and in my case, I can feel our baby girl’s life essence. And trust me, she’s a girl."
Nikolai chuckled as he gently grabbed her by the hand and lovingly kissed it, his gaze also turning to stare at the rising sun before them. They were currently on the roof of their palace having breakfast, and Mineah had wanted to do it early so that they could witness the eastern sunrise. Thankfully, it was all worth it.
"I can’t wait to hold her in my arms and see how adorable she will look then," Nikolai enthusiastically remarked. "I hope she’ll look more like you though."
"We’ll see when the time comes," Mineah simply smiled as she rested her head on her husband’s shoulder. "You know, Brother is very determined to hold that Global Summit for all the kingdoms in the world at the moment. Do you think it will be a success? I heard all the preparations will be completed in around three months."
"You’ll be near your due date by that time, Mine," Nikolai answered. "But to answer your question, that Global Summit looks promising, and I do think we all need an event like that so all rulers can have an open discussion about important matters to maintain peace, and order and keep the good relationships between the realms."
Mineah nodded. She was glad that her husband, including her brother-in-law Darius, were both very supportive of Ezekiel’s intentions.
