He had a hint of pride in his eyes.

Listening to these words, Katniss's rationality slowly returned.

She had been really foolish just now.

How could Maximilian be that kind of person?

Even if, in the worst-case scenario, Maximilian was that kind of person, given their alliance, he wouldn't be so blatant about it.

Jesse was very curious, "You said Maximilian locked you out, and there was a woman's voice inside?"
