Chapter 47

Ruby paused for a sec but quickly got what Calvin was hinting at.

So she calmly explained, "Dad, it's all 'cause Katniss is cold-hearted. She even ratted out her own brother to the cops!"

Calvin suddenly got it, feeling a bit better. No one would back up someone that heartless. Today, not only could Ruby get her revenge, but he could also watch Katniss's own mom deal with her.

Awesome, he would show Katniss what it took to mess with his daughter!

Elodie was so mad at Katniss that she felt like she was on fire inside.

Seeing there were still people around, Elodie held back the urge to have Simon pin Katniss down so she could smack her, and coldly ordered, "Katniss, your usual rudeness is my fault for not teaching you better, but today you must apologize to this Ruby. Otherwise, this is intentional harm, and you could end up in the police station too!"

Katniss glanced at her but stayed silent.

For some reason, that look made Elodie feel uneasy.

It was like Katniss had completely given up on her, treating her like a stranger.

But soon, a wave of anger surged in her.

Why did Katniss look at her like that? She was her mom, who had carried her for ten months, and she was just asking her to apologize.

Calvin chimed in at the right moment, "Ma'am, let me be clear. Today, an apology isn't enough. My precious daughter got hit by that wild girl! She needs to let my daughter slap her back three times, or she goes to the police station!" Elodie was stunned for a moment, looking at Ruby, finally noticing her swollen face.
