Chapter 238

The caller was a friend from the village where she used to live at Ella's house.

He said they should hold a memorial service for Aaron and asked if she wanted to come back to attend.

Although Katniss was not Aaron's biological daughter, she had called him dad for so many years, so it was reasonable for her to go back.

Katniss agreed.

But she wouldn't be genuinely sad at the memorial, just attending to fulfill that faint father-daughter bond.

In recent days, Maximilian's condition had improved a lot, and he seemed to be back to normal, which put her at ease.

Hearing that Katniss was going to attend Aaron's memorial service, he frowned and then said, "Let Conrad go with you."

Katniss did not refuse.

Going to that place, with so many people and gossip, although there wouldn't be any danger, it was best to be cautious.

After driving for several hours, she arrived at the memorial venue.

It was very lively here.

Many people were chatting together, and the venue was set up very decently.

Katniss raised an eyebrow, did Ella get rich? But it's no wonder, the Manners family placed their precious daughter here, naturally, they had to spend some money, otherwise, how could they ensure Clara wouldn't be bullied?

"What are you doing here?" Clara, carrying a basin of water, happened to run into Katniss at the door.

Her face was unfriendly, not wanting to put on a facade in such a place.

Mainly, it didn't matter how these people viewed her. Plus, living here for a few days, she felt very oppressed, and now encountering the culprit who made her like this, Clara naturally wouldn't have a good expression.

Katniss glanced at Clara and walked into the house on her own, "I was invited."
