After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 256

Chapter 256

Katniss finished her full body check-up.

Although the report wasn't out yet, the doctor basically determined that there shouldn't be any major issues, except for the obvious slap mark on her face.

But to be safe, the doctor still suggested that Katniss stay for one night.

After the doctor left, Maximilian sat by the bed.

He looked at Katniss, who seemed like a child who had done something wrong, and gently asked, "Does it still hurt?"

The side of her face that was hit was swollen, and Katniss felt a burning sensation.

Katniss shook her head and said softly, "After applying the medicine the doctor prescribed, it feels much better. It only hurts a little now."

Maximilian patted Katniss's head, "Then get some rest."

He got up to leave but was pulled back by Katniss grabbing his coat.

Maximilian turned around and asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Katniss bit her lip and looked up seriously, "Are you angry?"

She spoke slowly, probably to avoid pulling on her wound.

Each word was soft and gentle, but it tugged at Maximilian's heart.

Maximilian sat back down and held Katniss's hand in his, "Yes."

"I'm sorry..." Katniss lowered her head slightly, her tone sincere, "I didn't mean to cause trouble. Mainly, if I didn't help, Ashley would have..."

She might have been raped.

If she hadn't seen it, it would have been one thing, but she clearly saw it and knew what would happen if she didn't help.

Even though she knew that being selfish was the way to survive after her rebirth, her inherent kindness wouldn't let her stand by and do nothing.
