After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 225

Desmond then gently squeezed Clara's palm.

Clara bit her lip in frustration, took a deep breath, and looked at Maximilian with a shiver, "Maximilian, I'm young and not very good with words. Did I say something wrong to make you angry? It's my fault."

Maximilian ignored Clara, his eyes indifferent, and turned to Hank, "Hank, get them a few rooms."

Hank felt relieved and smiled kindly, "Mr. Boleyn, you and your friends, please come this way, take a bath to warm up, and just tell the staff if you need anything."

The implication was clear: don't stay in the lobby and disturb them.

Even Desmond, as slow as he was, understood and forced a smile, "Alright."

After Desmond and his group left, Maximilian loosened his collar and then raised his glass to his friends, "Let's continue."

Katniss leaned in close to Maximilian and whispered, "Wasn't it a bit harsh not giving Clara any face just now? I saw Desmond's face change, he looked really embarrassed, he probably hates you now."

She was worried Clara might tell the Boleyn family about this, and others would gossip. In their kind of high society, dignity was everything.

Maximilian's handsome face remained indifferent, and he chuckled lightly, "So what? Besides, aren't you happy?"

So arrogant... it made her like him even more.

Katniss's eyes sparkled under the light, "Happy!"

Fox, walking at the back, couldn't help but look back at the man with the elegant and stern demeanor. Even just a side profile couldn't hide his noble and cold aura. Was this Desmond's brother?

But... wasn't there a rumor that Desmond's brother Maximilian was sickly and dying? And that he was disabled, needing a wheelchair to get around.

Looking at him now, he didn't seem close to dying, nor did he have a wheelchair. He was tall, with a slender and upright figure, wearing the simplest shirt and suit pants, exuding a silent and restrained aura.
