After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 114

After Katniss left, Felix walked in and shut the door behind him.

"Over the past few days, some unfamiliar faces have been hanging around the villa. Emilio and the others have already taken care of them," Felix said with a sigh, clearly annoyed. "You're in this condition, and they still won't leave you alone. Don't they have any sense that you're family?"

Maximilian wheeled himself over to the big floor-to-ceiling window, lifted a corner of the curtain, and peered outside. The vast black night looked like a cold pool, and his eyes seemed to freeze everything they touched. "This is good. I won't have to hold back," Maximilian said softly. His handsome face looked especially captivating under the moonlight. "They want to elevate Desmond. Fine. But they'll have to go through me." Maximilian let go of the curtain, turned back, and looked at Felix. "When was the last time we donated medical equipment to Sunrise Hospital?"

"Earlier this year, I think," Felix recalled.

Because of Maximilian's health issues, Samuel and Carlton had been investing in medical advancements every year, hoping that one day, medicine would progress enough to cure him.

"It's been a while. Let's donate another two million dollars," Maximilian said.

Felix was momentarily stunned, full of confusion. It hadn't even been a year. Was that considered a long time?

Maximilian pursed his thin lips and continued to look at the documents.

"Got it. Indeed, it's been a while," Felix suddenly understood, a smile appearing on his face.

He would handle it the next day.

As he reached the door, Felix held the doorknob and then turned back to ask, "Mr. Hamilton, should we move Mrs. Hamilton to the master bedroom?" Maximilian's eyes flickered, "No need. She likes that room. She might not get used to another one."

Felix nodded and then left.

He then found the housekeeper and instructed, "Tomorrow, tidy up Mr. Hamilton's master bedroom and move his things to Mrs. Hamilton's room." Since Katniss didn't want to change, Maximilian would be willing to.
