Chapter 224

Someone said unhappily, "What's going on? Didn't they say we booked the whole place? Why are there still people here?"

The knocking on the door outside grew more urgent, and the waiter had no choice but to hurry through the curtain to open the door.

When the waiter opened the door, the wind howled in.

"Hank, go check it out," someone said impatiently. "We finally got together, don't let anyone ruin the mood."

The person named Hank nodded, "Got it, got it. You've had a few drinks and are throwing a tantrum, drink less."

Katniss knew the person named Hank. When they first met, everyone introduced themselves.

Although she didn't remember everyone clearly, she had a deep impression of this person because he was the owner of Tranquil Valley Manor.

Hank was a bit chubby, had long hair, and a thick beard, looking like someone not to be messed with.

But he seemed quite kind, at least he spoke gently to Katniss.

After a while, Hank returned, but he was followed by a group of people.

"What's going on, Hank? You brought people in?"

Clara and the others were also surprised to see Katniss and Maximilian.

Maximilian looked around, raising an eyebrow, "What's going on?"

His voice wasn't loud, and his speech was slow, but for some reason, it made people feel tense.
