Chapter 249

He liked Clara not only because she was beautiful and kind-hearted, but also because her delicate appearance always aroused his protective instincts.

Unlike Katniss's aggressiveness or Brynn's lively and outgoing nature, Clara couldn't survive without him.

But now, if he wanted to rely on his father to save Clara, it seemed he had to agree to the condition of breaking off the engagement.

Desmond was very annoyed. He didn't want to stay in this oppressive house, so he drove away directly to find friends to drink and relieve his boredom.

Efforts always pay off. After a week of persistent efforts, Jesse finally got some information about Maximilian's condition from his psychologist friend.

"Non-Suicidal Self-Injury..." Katniss frowned deeply as she listened to Jesse report the

name.

She hadn't expected this term to be a medical condition.

Jesse nodded, his expression unusually serious. "Yes, because of some of Maximilian's past experiences. You know his parents didn't have a good relationship, and Gabriel was always out..."

Jesse hesitated, although he disapproved of Gabriel's actions, it wasn't good to criticize someone behind their back.

Katniss was well aware of all this.

Maximilian's parents married due to a family alliance, and there was no love between them. Their relationship after marriage was also poor.

Gabriel had a rebellious mentality; the more his family oppressed him, the more he wanted to rebel to prove his capability and existence. So he found Emily outside and had Desmond.

Emily had a pitiful background.

Her family was poor, her father was ill, and her mother did odd jobs to support the family. Young Emily had no choice but to go out to work and earn money. Without money or power, and being very beautiful, Emily was naturally harassed, and coincidentally. Gabriel came to her rescue.

In Gabriel's eyes, Emily was weak and needed protection and pity, completely dependent on him. Such a person could arouse Gabriel's protective instincts, so they had an affair.

When Maximilian's mother found out, she naturally made a big scene. The more she did, the more Gabriel resented her. Their constant quarrels and fights made Maximilian's childhood miserable.
