After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 97

After a moment of silence, Wesley shook his head. "Anyone know how Oliver's family treats Katniss."

Wesley's face turned colder. He stubbed out his half-smoked cigarette and said harshly, "They're really cold towards Katniss. Whether they know it or not doesn't matter. If Katniss gets mistreated at Maximilian's and they don't care, I will. I'll bring Katniss back here."

When Katniss was young and got wronged, even if she was bullied at school, Wesley and Elodie didn't feel sorry for her. Instead, they blamed her for causing trouble and told her to reflect on herself.

With this attitude, how could he expect the Oliver family to support Katniss?

Daphne sighed, "You're right, the Oliver family only cares about the adopted daughter with no blood relation. But Maximilian gave so many gifts, properties, and money. If they find out you bypassed them to act as a guardian, I'm worried Oliver and Elodie will make a fuss."

Wesley snorted coldly, "I'm not afraid if Oliver comes to me. All those gifts, properties, and money were given to Katniss. We didn't take a penny. I have a clear conscience!" Hearing this, Daphne nodded.

Wesley was right, they weren't greedy for Katniss's property.

If Oliver's family could treat Katniss better, they wouldn't have to step in to discuss her marriage.

Neither of them spoke again, and the room fell silent. Then the sound of a door opening came from the entrance, followed by the sound of a doorknob turning.

Saskia entered the room quietly, her eyes red and swollen, clearly having just cried.

Seeing Saskia like this, Wesley and Daphne were startled and quickly went over.

"Saskia, what happened?" Daphne asked, heartbroken. She then had a guess and her face changed, "Did Kieran hit you? Saskia, don't hide this from me and your dad!" Saskia's nose tingled, her voice hoarse as she held back tears and said, "No, Mom, no one hit me."
