After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 33
Felix was thinking about how Max had downed three bowls of soup, grinning and saying, "Katniss, you're a lifesaver. Seriously, if
it weren't for you, I'd be lost. Max saw a ton of doctors and popped a bunch of pills, but nothing worked. Now,
he's finally getting better."
Felix's eyes got all serious as he spoke.
Katniss figured Felix had already figured out the issue with Max's meds. With their cash and connections, they'd definitely get to
the bottom of it.
She was curious why Felix hit up Aurora. Sure, she had mad medical skills, but she just ran a tiny private clinic.
These days, everyone wants the big hospitals. Even if a private doc is good, people still go for the big names. Max had money
and power, so why couldn't he find a top-notch doc?
"Felix, I'll do everything I can to help Max get better!" Katniss said, all determined.
Felix was touched by her resolve.
There were tons of people in the Boleyn family, but none of them cared about Max as much as this outsider did.
Katniss blinked her big eyes, cheerfully looking at Felix and saying, "Felix, we should totally stock up this huge fridge with loads
of yummy food!"
Felix laughed heartily and nodded, saying, "No problem, Katniss. This fridge has double doors and tons of space. Go wild, put in
as much as you want!"
After munching on some bass soup outside, Felix couldn't stop raving about Katniss's cooking skills. He even drove her to school
after the meal.

The speech contest was coming up. When Katniss walked through the school gate, she saw a poster for the contest on the
bulletin board, listing the participants.
Katniss originally wanted to slip away but saw that besides Juniper, Clara's name was also on the list, which puzzled her.

Hadn't she already given the spot to Juniper?
Since she had a class, she planned to go to the classroom to ask Juniper but ran into Nathan.
Nathan was a junior, majoring in design, often running errands for Clara.
He had been in poor health since childhood, frail and prone to minor illnesses. He had been taking medicine for years to
maintain his health, which made his skin paler and more delicate than his peers, making him look even thinner under his tall
frame.
Nathan was particularly prone to fatigue and weakness, often looking pale with a faint sheen of sweat on his forehead. He
frequently needed medication to maintain his strength and health, doctors repeatedly advising him to avoid overexertion. Despite
his poor health, he persisted in bringing Clara small cakes, never giving up easily.
In Nathan's life, medicine played a crucial role. To manage his condition, he had to take it regularly every day to keep his body
stable. In her past life, Katniss had always been making medicine and medicinal food for him, helping him nourish his body.
Thanks to Katniss's long-term efforts, his health had improved significantly. But in the future, Katniss wouldn't do it again!
Seeing the obviously weaker Nathan, Katniss felt a sense of satisfaction.
Nathan didn't even deserve her treatment.
Nathan's face changed when he saw Katniss. He looked a bit ticked off, forcing a bitter smile and saying softly, "Katniss, I just
wanted you to help deliver a cake to Clara. Didn't think you'd be so against it."
Katniss frowned at Nathan's words, shooting back, "What bugs me is that you always come to me because of her. Is Clara the
only one who gets your attention?"

Nathan's face darkened at her retort, his voice getting a bit harsh, "Is it so wrong for me to care about Clara? You don't need to
butt in."
The tension between them was thick. Katniss didn't want to waste more words, so she headed straight to the classroom.
As she turned to leave, Nathan grabbed her arm, not letting go. Katniss, furious, her eyes blazing, shoved Nathan away with all
her might. He lost his balance and hit the ground, the small cake in his hand smashing into crumbs. "Katniss!" Nathan looked at
the broken cake, both heartbroken and angry, shouting at her. He was upset about the cake and furious at Katniss.

Nathan's face showed anger as he stood up, breathing heavily. He looked at the broken cake and then at Katniss, his voice low
and filled with rage, "My cake! That was for Clara!" Katniss shot back, "You brought it on yourself!"
"Nathan!" Clara hurried over, asking, "Are you okay?"
"Clara, I'm fine," Nathan said, shaking his head, feeling guilty. "The cake is ruined. I'll get you another one."
Clara looked at the broken cake, nodding, but her gaze shifted to the classroom. "Nathan, what happened? Why did Katniss treat
you like this? We're family."
Nathan sneered, "Katniss never considered us family. Simon is still at the police station, and she's so heartless. Clara, you need
to stay away from her; she'll hurt you."
Nathan's tone was filled with resentment as he coldly looked at Katniss, as if she were a criminal.
Clara wanted to comfort Katniss, but Nathan stopped her, saying, "Katniss shouldn't have taken her anger out on me. She
crossed the line."
Clara ran towards Katniss, but Nathan blocked her, saying, "Katniss, don't avoid the issue. If you're angry, take it out on me, but
don't blame Nathan."
"Clara, don't try to reason with that vicious woman. She's not worth it!" Nathan said, anxiously chasing after her, afraid Katniss
would harm Clara.
Katniss sat at her desk, feeling irritated. She was waiting for Juniper, but instead, these two showed up. Katniss didn't want to
see their sibling affection, not because she was sad, but because she was annoyed.
She just hoped to take the exam soon, switch to the medical program, and get away from these annoying people.
Seeing them still chattering, Katniss took out a tissue from her pocket, slowly crumpling it, and stuffing it into her ears in front of
them. Then she started reciting, "Bicarbonate is an important component of the body's pH buffering system..."
