Chapter 166

Katniss hung her head, her bangs covering the guilt in her eyes. Should she tell Cecilia?

While she was hesitating, Cecilia had already started talking excitedly.

"Never mind that, what I want to say is, I think my uncle Lazlo is out of his mind."

"My dad said that business seemed to have offended Maximilian, and Maximilian just handed it over to Lazlo."

"Or maybe it was a small compensation to the Thorne family. After all, the former richest man's grandfather had hinted at wanting to marry into the Thorne family, but then he turned around and married someone else."

"Feeling a bit guilty, compensating a little is quite normal."

"My uncle misunderstood that the Hamilton family still had intentions of marriage and forced my perfect cousin Yasmin to be a mistress!"

Mistresses are so despised!

Yasmin, being so proud and strong, couldn't stand it.

After hearing Cecilia's complaints, Katniss couldn't help but think that many things in this life, and their trajectories, were changing.

So far, it seemed that Yasmin and Maximilian's relationship from the previous life had also changed.

Katniss didn't know what this would turn into in the end.

But every time she thought about it, she felt a sense of guilt, always feeling like she had taken Yasmin's place.

It gave her a headache.

After dinner, Katniss and Cecilia went to the hospital together.

Conrad came to pick them up.

He was driving a flashy limited edition Range Rover.

Cecilia marveled at the car, then at Conrad.

She slapped Katniss on the shoulder, exclaiming in surprise, "Katniss!! Is this guy your bodyguard? He's so cool!"

"With that height and build, he'd be unstoppable on the basketball court!"

The more Cecilia talked, the more excited she got. "If we had someone like him on our team, making it to the world finals wouldn't be impossible!"
