"Sweet-talk her?" Ottilie furrowed her brows. "Why would you want to sweet-talk her? She seems very intelligent and not easily fooled."
"You also realize that she doesn't seem easy to fool, yet you're getting me into trouble!"
Ottilie thought for a moment. "But she asked me earlier if we wanted to stay."
"What?" Dorian was taken aback.
Ottilie nodded.
"For real?"
"Father, what is the multiplication table of nine?"
"Huh?"
"Do you know Sleeping Beauty?"
Dorian was silent.
"I can't write..." Ottilie continued, a little frustrated. "Why didn't you teach me how to write?"
Dorian didn't say anything.
Because he wasn't good at it either!
But...
Following the normal progression of a human child's life.
Indeed, Ottilie should be of school-going age.
But she had been wandering around with him, never staying in one place.
How could she go to school?
"Did she test you?" Dorian asked.
Ottilie nodded. "She said she gave me a year to learn these things. If I still can't do it by then, maybe we can't stay."
Dorian felt a heavy sensation in his chest.
He looked up at Athena and the others, who were now looking in their direction.
His eyes started to feel a bit warm.
He intended to kill her children, yet not only did she bring Ottilie back, but she also didn't mind that she was a peculiar child. She welcomed her and even allowed her to attend school.
"My little girl is the smartest in the world. She learns quickly, and whatever she learns, she excels at it! Within a year, we'll make progress!" Dorian said confidently.
There.
Jaxson started crying because of the seeds.
Dorian was silent.
No?
Impressive... a master?
But those moves Ottilie used against him just now...
His strength was quite formidable.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup
I am at Chapter 550 and there are almost 2 stories in 1. Aron and Evie's story could very well have been made into another story. Such a waste of time because I am reading for Byron and Athena, not Evie and Aron...
Is there no new updates after this one?...
