My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup novel Chapter 1234

"Byron, you are somewhat unreasonable. Back when I worked by your side, wasn't this how you demanded things from me? I should never come to you for help unless there was something I really couldn't handle. Why can't it be the same now?"

Athena was already fed up today.

She had no mood to placate Byron's sudden outburst.

Her words caused Byron's expression to falter slightly, as if he were a child who had done something wrong.

"Alright, let's stop arguing and not bring up the past..." He lowered his eyes, reaching out to hold Athena's wrist. "I'm sorry. I got caught up in unnecessary worries."

It was a sense of insecurity.

In fact, this sense of insecurity had never disappeared since they got married.

He was always overly cautious, afraid of touching things he shouldn't touch.

And he was eager to cater to Athena's every need.

But somehow, the more he acted this way, the more he felt like he was walking on thin ice.

He was so cautious.

In contrast, Athena gave him the feeling that she could leave at any moment.

On the way back just now, Byron couldn't help but wonder whether she would have married him if he hadn't resorted to threats.

Would she have held onto him if he hadn't been so desperate to hold on to her?

"Byron..."

Athena looked at him with concern.

"I'll handle the matter with Simon. It's because of me that we got into trouble." Byron tightened his grip on her hand and looked into her eyes.

His beautiful eyes were now bloodshot and appeared fragile and pitiful.

Athena had never seen Byron like this before.

"You can't intervene," Athena said as she sat beside him, holding his hand back firmly. "Since it involves Freya, you shouldn't come forward."

The domestic media were under Byron's control, but overseas media were a different story.

Once certain rumors spread, it would be hard to quell them.

Whether Simon wanted to take revenge on Byron or Byron intended to punish Simon, once it started, the media would blur it all into a story about Freya.
