After her rebirth

Katniss had no intention of paying attention to Desmond. She glared at him, "Get out of the way!"

Desmond looked at Katniss and vented his frustration, sarcastically saying, "What, feeling guilty? If my brother knew what a shameless woman you are, what do you think he would think?"

Katniss sneered, "Desmond, is this how you talk to your sister-in-law? Where are your manners? Where is your upbringing?"

Desmond was momentarily speechless. He had indeed been warned by his brother about this, but now Maximilian wasn't here.

Desmond sneered disdainfully, "Katniss, who do you think you are? You're just temporarily bewitching my brother. A woman like you is nothing compared to Yasmin." Thinking of Yasmin's generosity, good family background, and capabilities, Desmond looked down on Katniss even more. "I heard that recently, because of your impulsive actions, my brother has targeted a wealthy heir? Katniss, you're really something, always causing trouble."

Katniss looked Desmond up and down, who was fuming with anger, and snorted coldly, "This is between me and your brother. What, are you now meddling in your brother and sister-in-law's affairs?"

"I'm warning you!" Desmond, already full of anger, seized the opportunity to vent at Katniss. "If it weren't for you, the Hamilton and Boleyn families' businesses would be thriving. You're just dragging my brother down. You'd better back off early, or the consequences will be dire."

Katniss was amused by Desmond's righteous indignation. "Clara is also dragging down your career, but I don't see you giving up on her. Desmond, if you can't do it yourself, don't think about lecturing others."

Desmond's face changed, and he roared, "You're not the same. What right do you have to compare yourself to her?"

As if trying to convince himself, he said angrily, "Katniss, our difficulties are temporary, but you... do you really think you can stay by my brother's side forever?"

Katniss sneered, "Desmond, my relationship with Maximilian is none of your business. I don't care about you and Clara either. Since we broke off our engagement, we have no Terártorischip. possite, Teany on warn to see you, just unitésny eyes: '

With that, Katniss didn't waste any more words and mocked, "Get out of the way." Desmond's face turned pale, "You..."

Katniss didn't indulge him and directly pushed the door open and left. Desmond was very dissatisfied.

He was already full of resentment, and now Katniss was lecturing him.

Desmond was so angry that he wanted to chase after her, but at that moment, a nurse's voice came through, "Family of Clara in room 12, please come over. Family of Clara in room 12..."

The nurse's voice was loud, and when it reached Desmond's ears, he stopped in his tracks.

Looking at the closed door, Desmond left angrily.

At the same time, on the other side of the door, Katniss also heard the nurse's voice.

She curiously opened the door and watched Desmond's back as he entered a room. The nurse had called for Clara's family.

What happened to Clara again?

Although she was somewhat frail, she often went to the hospital, almost as much as Nathan.

She only knew that last time, because of Laura's report, Clara was caught in a murder- for-hire situation, but later Laura told her that the matter seemed to have been settled. So, who helped her?

The Manners family didn't have that capability; the Boleyn family was more likely. Thinking of this, Katniss's lips curled into a sneer.

To deal with Clara, it seemed Desmond was the biggest obstacle.

But, there was plenty of time; she wasn't in a hurry.

When she first reincarnated, she was filled with resentment and hatred towards those people. But now she felt her life was getting more comfortable and didn't want to get involved in those trivial matters.

However, she also knew that with the Manners family and Clara's personalities, they wouldn't let her live comfortably and would cause her some trouble.

While Katniss was deep in thought, her phone rang.

"Hello, Maximilian." Katniss's tone was cheerful.

"Where are you?"noveldrama

"At the hospital." Katniss explained obediently, "I'm here to see Ashley."

Ashley originally wanted to save money and didn't want to owe Katniss and Maximilian too many favors, thinking her injury wasn't a big deal and directly discharged herself.

Later, she found the pain kept her up at night, and the wound reopened because it wasn't properly treated. Plus, Katniss had gotten her a large sum of money from the Loomis family, so she was back in the hospital.

Katniss was here to visit her.

As a result, she was inexplicably attacked by the crazy Desmond.

Maximilian pondered for a moment and then said, "I'll come to pick you up."

Katniss instinctively refused, "No need, it's quite convenient for me to take a car over."

"Wait for me." Maximilian didn't give Katniss a chance to refuse and hung up the phone.

Katniss had no choice but to slowly go downstairs and find a place to sit and wait for Maximilian.

Before long, Maximilian's call came.

The hospital was too congested, so he parked the car across the street and needed Katniss to walk a few steps.

and turn. The next chapter awaits, exclusively on our site. Dive in now! Katniss naturally had no problem with that.

She chatted gossipily with Maximilian, "Guess who I ran into at the hospital today?"

"Hmm?" Maximilian's voice was pleasant, with a hint of curiosity, "Who did you run into?"

Katniss thought for a moment and then told him about running into Desmond at the hospital, and took the opportunity to complain, "Don't you think Desmond is too disrespectful? When you're not around, he speaks to me so rudely."

Katniss couldn't see Maximilian's expression, but she could tell his tone had darkened, "Indeed."

As she was about to cross the street, Katniss hung up the phone.

Maximilian's car was black, a common color on the street, but Katniss spotted it immediately.

When she arrived, she found Maximilian on the phone with a stern expression.

Curious, Katniss got into the passenger seat.

Who had made Maximilian angry?

Although Maximilian didn't smile often and usually had a stern face, Katniss could now clearly sense he was a bit angry.

She didn't know what the other person said, but Maximilian warned, "Desmond, you need to be clear about your position. I don't want to repeat myself."

With that, Maximilian hung up.

Katniss was stunned for a moment. Was he disciplining Desmond for her?

Maximilian looked at Katniss and smiled, "Where do you want to eat?"

Katniss snapped out of it and smiled, "I'm fine with anything. Do you have a place in mind?"

Maximilian nodded, "Yes."
