Chapter 297
"What are you talking about? You better cto the hospital today! Otherwise, I'll go to your school and let
them know you're a heartless person who won't even save his own mother!"
Oliver was now entangled with the police and was saying all sorts of harsh words.
"Not seeing you for a while, you've really beca scoundrel."
Katniss said this and then hung up the phone.
Oliver never expected Katniss to dare hang up on him, and he was furious!
He called Katniss several more times, but they were all hung up, and then there was no response for a long time,
as if he had been blocked!
"Dare to block me!" Oliver was so angry that he left the hospital in one go and went to Katniss's place.
He knew Katniss lived in Golden Crest Estates, but when he got there, he was stopped at the gate by Conrad.
Conrad put down his meal with a cold face and asked Oliver, "What do you want?"
"I want to see Katniss!" Oliver's anger hadn't subsided, and his attitude was even worse after being stopped by
Conrad.
"Madam doesn't want to see you." Conrad said this and then sat back at the table in the yard, continuing to eat
his meal.
Oliver was dumbfounded and angrily said, "I'm Katniss's father! How dare she not see me? Letin right now!"
Conrad completely ignored him and continued eating.
Oliver, both anxious and angry, started shouting directly.
"Shut up!" Conrad quickly got up and opened the gate.
Just as Oliver was smugly about to enter, Conrad pushed him several meters away from the gate.
"Now you can shout."
Oliver's face turned black, and he got up to grab Conrad, but Conrad easily threw him to the ground.
"Murder!" Oliver immediately lay on the ground and started wailing, not caring about his dignity at all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no one else around, so he wailed even louder.
"Stop pretending, why are you holding your stomach? You fell on your butt!" Conrad
found it quite amusing to see him wailing on the ground.
Oliver stopped holding his stomach; his butt did hurt a bit, but he was too embarrassed to hold it.
He was forced into this by the police, with no other choice.
Unable to save face and hold his butt, Oliver threatened again:
"Get Katniss out here right now! Or this won't end today! Do you believe I'll call the police!?"
"Go ahead, I'm acting in self-defense, and there's surveillance here. Call the police if you want." Conrad pointed
to the surveillance camera by the road and then went back inside.
Oliver's face looked bad, and he moved back to the gate, shouting again.
"No one will ceven if you keep shouting; the house is well soundproofed." Conrad couldn't be bothered with
him and continued eating his meal.
"You!" Oliver had no other options and could only call Lucas.
Lucas didn't expect Oliver to go to Golden Crest Estates to find Katniss and still need him to call Katniss to notify
her.
Although he didn't understand and was too busy to investigate the reason, he still had tto notify Katniss.
However, when Lucas called Katniss, the call wasn't answered.
His assistant notified him of a meeting, and thinking that Katniss would call back when she saw the missed call,
he didn't dwell on it and went into the meeting room.
On the other side, although Oliver had Lucas notify Katniss to cout, he didn't stop shouting in front of
Golden Crest Estates.
After being reprimanded by Conrad again, he stood a bit further away but still kept shouting for Katniss, even
starting to curse.

He thought that no matter how good the soundproofing was, it should still be heard, but an hour passed, and no
one cdown.
And didn't Lucas notify Katniss?!
He called Lucas again, and Lucas, just out of the meeting, tiredly asked, "What now?" He felt that every family
member was a source of worry!
Especially Oliver, who not only neglected the company but also caused embarrassing incidents outside.
"Didn't | ask you to call Katniss? Did you tell her I'm downstairs?" Oliver shouted at Lucas in anger.
"I just had a meeting, and | forgot after one missed call. Wait a bit longer."
After saying this, Lucas hung up and called Katniss.
In Golden Crest Estates, Katniss closed her book, feeling anxious about tomorrow's banquet.
Although she had only met Yasmin a few times, facing someone as naturally brilliant and outstanding as Yasmin
always made her worry that she couldn't measure up and that she wasn't worthy of Maximilian.
Katniss thought she should practice acupuncture to distract herself.
She had been learning medicine from her grandmother since she was a child, and over the years, she had
becvery skilled in Shadow Acupuncture and practiced it regularly.
Often, practicing acupuncture allowed her to calm down, not think about external matters, and focus on the fine
silver needles.
After half an hour of practice, Katniss felt a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, and her mood improved
significantly after immersing herself in something she loved and focused on.
After a simple wash and tidy up, Katniss noticed several missed calls on her phone.
All the missed calls were from Lucas, so Katniss called back.
"What's up?"
Katniss's tone wasn't warm; she was just worried that something might have happened with Nathan, so she
called back.
"Dad cto see you, he's downstairs. Also, take him off the blacklist."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOliver couldn't reach Katniss and cto bother him, which was a headache for Lucas.
In the hour he couldn't reach Katniss, Oliver called him eight times to urge him,
But what could he do? Katniss didn't answer her phone, and he didn't know what she was doing.
If Katniss hadn't called him back now, he would have guessed that she had blocked him too.
"What kind of tone is that? Are you ordering me?"
Lucas knew things were bad as soon as he heard Katniss's tone and quickly tried to make amends:
"Consider it a favor, don't hold a grudge against our dad, take him off the blacklist." Katniss: "He's your dad, not
mine."
When she left the Manners family, she made a clear break with them. She still remembered how they treated her
and the looks they gave her.
How could Lucas have selective amnesia so quickly?
And still call him "our dad"?
"Fine, he's downstairs now, go see him. He just wants you to go to the hospital to see
mom. | promise he won't make a scene!"
Katniss: "Let him wait."
Oliver was downstairs and had been waiting for a while. She didn't want to push him
too hard, so she reluctantly agreed.
After getting Katniss's response, Lucas immediately called Oliver.
