After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 142

Chapter 142

Katniss stood in the doorway, her eyes blazing as she saw Maximilian for the first time.

A cool breeze stirred, making Maximilian's black shirt flutter and showing off the sculpted contours of his waist. His hair, damp with sweat, fell messily over his piercing, narrow eyes.

Seeing Katniss return, Maximilian's lips curved into a slight smile.

Katniss's heart skipped a beat. Tonight, Maximilian looked absolutely captivating.

After a quiet exhale, Katniss stepped inside.

She noticed some professional rehab equipment next to him.

Clearly, he had consulted a rehab doctor.

"I thought you said training starts next week. Why did you start today?" Katniss asked, puzzled.

Starting early could help him get used to it sooner, but his leg wasn't fully healed yet. Training now would be tough and painful.

Maximilian replied, "I've been sitting for too long. I wanted to stand up sooner."

Katniss lowered her gaze, her eyes tracing the length of Maximilian's straight, strong legs.

Her clear eyes gleamed briefly. Even in a wheelchair, Maximilian exuded effortless command and control.

But who wouldn't want to stand tall and meet others' gaze?

"Wow, you're so tall when you stand!" Katniss extended her hand above her head, "Look, you're this much taller than me!"

Wearing flat shoes, she only reached Maximilian's chest.

The closer she stood, the more she felt the intense aura emanating from Maximilian. Maximilian's lips twitched. He propped himself on the railing with one hand and used the other to ruffle her hair, "Don't be picky. Eat everything Mira prepares."

"Got it, got it." Katniss puffed her cheeks, looking a bit defiant.

Then she ran off into the hall.
