Chapter 128

Katniss had no clue how she drifted off, but when she jolted awake and checked the clock on the wall, it was almost midnight.

She glanced at the sofa-empty. No sound of water from the bathroom either.

Where did he go?

Worried about Maximilian, Katniss quickly tossed off the covers and got up.

She had planned to wait for him to finish his cold shower and then head downstairs to make some ginger tea, but somehow she had dozed off.

Maximilian was weak, what if he caught a cold?

Katniss searched the big room but didn't see him anywhere, even checked the study.

Could it be that Maximilian couldn't resist and went out to find another woman?

"Ah!"

The bathroom door suddenly swung open, and a large, well-defined hand reached out, grabbing her slender arm and pulling her inside.

Her delicate back was pressed against the door, and Katniss, still in shock, saw that it was Maximilian.

He must have taken a cold shower. He was dripping wet, but his body was so hot it was practically steaming, with water droplets running down his muscular frame.

So he hadn't gone out to find a woman.

"Looking for me?" Maximilian's voice was hoarse and low.

But something was off about his voice.

Katniss frowned and reached out to touch his forehead.

Her hand was cool and soft, and the moment it touched him, he felt an indescribable
