Chapter 211

Conrad was stunned.

Katniss smiled sweetly, "With you here, we won't have trouble handling a few people, right?"

She was curious to see what Elodie and the others were up to.

Would they still act all high and mighty, or would they lower their proud heads for Simon?

Conrad felt a surge of pride; Katniss actually trusted him so much!

When the two were brought into the ward by Conrad, Katniss was sitting at the table inside, enjoying her meal.

Hearing their footsteps, she didn't even bother to look up.

It was Elodie who, seeing Katniss's posture, felt as if she had been pricked by a needle, and a wave of anger surged in her heart, "Katniss, what is your heart made of? You're fine, but you sent your fourth brother Simon in? His leg is broken now, and if it doesn't heal properly, he'll be crippled."

Katniss frowned and stopped what she was doing, "So you're here to talk nonsense. Conrad, throw them out."

If you're asking for help, you should have the right attitude.

Not this high and mighty demeanor.

"Katniss, what do you want?" Elodie was anxious.

If Katniss didn't want to help her, Simon was really done for!

Katniss waved her hand at Conrad, then took out a tissue to wipe her mouth, smiling at them, "Did you get the point wrong? You insisted on coming in, I didn't invite you. If you still can't learn how to talk, then I don't think we have anything to discuss."

Elodie was so angry that her chest heaved.

She really couldn't bring herself to lower her pride and speak softly to Katniss.

Clara quickly tried to smooth things over, "Katniss, can you let Simon go? He's really miserable, his leg is broken. You know, if he goes to jail, he might have lasting effects. We're all family, can't we talk things out?"

"Yeah." Katniss followed Clara's words, "Did Simon talk to me nicely? What did he do? Besides, he committed a crime, it's not up to me to decide whether he goes free or not."

These people are really presumptuous.

Clara looked guilty, "Sorry, Simon was impulsive. We promise, once he's out, he'll

behave. He won't bother you anymore. And if you write a letter of forgiveness, he'll be fine soon."

"You're asking me?"

"Yes, we're asking you."
