My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup novel Chapter 1057

Athena slept in until half-past eight, stretching leisurely before getting up.

Coincidentally, she bumped into Evie going downstairs as she headed out.

"Morning." Evie greeted her with a yawn.

"Morning," Athena replied.

The two of them went downstairs together.

Ada was in the living room preparing some materials.

Seeing them coming down, Ada quickly invited them to the dining room and brought them their breakfast.

As Athena sat down, she noticed Evie seemed to have a question that she hesitated to ask.

Seeing that, Athena casually said, "Madam Cross, she knows everything. Just go ahead and ask."

"Um... I was just wondering if you found Linda's parents?"

"We found them." Athena nodded and proceeded to recount some of the events from yesterday.

"Oh, I think I heard about it before. The Ziegler family's financial situation was average, mainly because they have many children. They had several sons and were finally blessed with a daughter, but then..."

"No wonder Mrs. Ziegler was so upset that she had to rely on medications," Evie murmured.

It was common for people who lived during that time and in Mageport to have preference for boys as family heirs, so there weren't a lot of families that genuinely cared for their daughters.

In short, Brian was despicable!

"You two need to be careful when dealing with these matters. Although Brian is getting older, he's still ruthless." Ada expressed her concern.

Athena smiled softly.

"Madam Cross, look over there." She pointed outside the dining room's window to where Mike was talking to Martin. "He can handle ten guys on his own. If it's someone like Brian... taking care of a hundred of them wouldn't be a problem!"

Ada found the joke amusing.

"If there were a hundred Brian, we'd be in deep trouble."

While they were chatting, they noticed Evie was spacing out.

Though her mood had improved somewhat yesterday, the root issues were still there.
