Chapter 63

'If Maximilian goes for it, I'm done helping him with his leg!' Katniss thought.

Maximilian kept his cool, his icy gaze sweeping over Brenda. "Honestly, I don't think there's anything your company can offer us." Katniss couldn't help but laugh out loud.

For the first time, she saw just how sharp Maximilian's words could be.

He straight-up dismissed the other company as too small and not worth his time.

Brenda, who had bent down to shake hands, now found herself in an awkward spot, her face looking pretty sour.

"Yeah, Kieran, looks like your companies don't have much overlap in terms of business, "Katniss said, circling behind the wheelchair with a sweet smile. "It's getting late, don't you have work to do? Hurry up and go, so you can get home early." With that, Katniss pushed the wheelchair and left.

Watching them leave, Kieran's face darkened with anger. Was Katniss stupid or just clueless, not even helping her own family?

Brenda bit her lip, feeling super resentful. Rejecting a hot-bodied beauty for a young girl who hadn't even grown up yet. Was Maximilian dumb?

"What's up with Katniss, not even helping her brother-in-law!" Brenda sneered.

Kieran snapped, "Don't blame me for your failed seduction attempt!"

Giving Brenda a cold look, Kieran strode away.

Brenda stood there for a moment, stomped her foot, bit her lip, and followed.

Meanwhile, on the second floor of the Starry Night Hotel, a group of rich kids had seen the whole thing.

"Hey, Desmond, isn't that your ex-fiancée who used to follow you around?" someone sneered.

Desmond glared at his friend. "I broke off the engagement with her a long time ago!"
