After her rebirth by Cici

"Misunderstanding what?" Maximilian looked up and met a pair of beautiful eyes, which seemed to be filled with countless tiny stars. He suddenly pursed his lips, "Do your manners, don't talk!"

Katniss swallowed the words she was about to say.

"I want to talk." Katniss suddenly became bold, "Mira misunderstood that I could give you twins next year."

Maximilian's spoon paused mid-air, and he raised an eyebrow, "You're still young, you can't have children."

"I'm twenty, how am I still young?" as soon as she said this, Katniss regretted it.

Katniss bit her lip, feeling a wave of awkwardness wash over her. What was she even saying?

She sneaked a glance at Maximilian, hoping he didn't care what she just said.

But she found that Maximilian was looking at her and had indeed heard her, "You want to have children?"

How did it turn into her wanting to have children with Maximilian?

Katniss panicked and hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. I mean, our marriage is fake, everything is fake, how could we have children? Mira and Grandpa will be..." disappointed.

Before she could finish, Maximilian interrupted her, his tone heavy, "I know, do you want everyone to know?"

Katniss immediately stopped, glanced at Maximilian's smooth and beautiful profile, and lowered her head quietly, her face a mask of impassivity..

Seeing this made Katniss feel stifled, and she was absent-minded for the rest of the meal.

After dinner, Maximilian had to handle some business. Katniss didn't dare make a sound and quickly took on the task, pushing Maximilian steadily into the study and then giving him acupuncture.

Maximilian was very cooperative, and the whole process went smoothly.

But Katniss sensitively noticed that ever since she said that sentence, the chill surrounding Maximilian had deepened perceptibly.

Even after it was over, Katniss couldn't understand if she had said something wrong.
