After her rebirth by Cici
Chapter 152
Chapter 152
In her past life, she had walked on eggshells, trying to win their favor, only to end up betrayed and torn apart, her organs harvested.
But the Maximilian standing before her now was giving her a break she never could've dreamed of.
Suddenly, the door to the hallway swung open, breaking the moment in Katniss's heart.
Maximilian looked up, his handsome face icy, his sharp eyes locking coldly on Emilio, who hesitated at the doorway.
Emilio lingered, hand still on the doorknob, unsure whether to come in or back out.
Katniss quickly stepped back, mumbling awkwardly, "You guys carry on I'll just head back to my room."
Maximilian's voice was cool as he addressed Emilio, "This better be important."
In the study.
Maximilian sat behind the desk, with Emilio standing in front of him.
Emilio held a folder and reported briefly, "The Manners family's municipal project was awarded to the Thorne family an hour ago."
"The news is out, and no one will dare to work with the Manners family anymore."
"Not enough," Maximilian replied, his voice lazy and arrogant.
Emilio closed the folder and looked up, "What do you mean?"
"Do I need to spell it out for you?"
"Got it, Sir." Emilio nodded slightly, turned, and quickly left.
Katniss had no idea what Maximilian had done; she stayed in her room reading until evening.
When Maximilian came in, he saw her absorbed in an old medical book.
The neckline of her pajamas had slipped a bit, showing some skin. Maximilian's eyes lingered for a moment before looking away.
His voice was gentle, "Cover up with a blanket while you read, don't catch a cold."
Katniss's thoughts snapped back to the present, and she smiled, "Maximilian, are you done with work?"
"Yeah," he replied.
With that, Maximilian headed to the bathroom, and soon the sound of running water filled the room.
