Just as Athena felt that she was trapped and there was no escape, a hand suddenly reached over and forcefully struck Annie's arm.
Annie winced in pain, and the syringe in her hand slipped away.
"Hensley!"
Clutching her wrist, Annie looked in shock at the tall man approaching from Athena's side.
Athena also turned her gaze in that direction.
It was one of the two killers sent by Robert.
Hensley gave Athena a glance, his expression devoid of emotion, before turning his gaze to Annie. "Mr. Anderson said we can't kill her."
His earlier hit was merciless.
As they were in a conversation, Annie's wrist started swelling.
Despite the pain, Annie seemed unfazed, her eyes burning with hysteria. "She is the one who orchestrated Heather's death! Why should she be allowed to live? Why?"
"Mr. Anderson has decided that there should only be one to die between Byron and Athena. He chose Byron, so Athena must live," Hensley stated coldly.
A chill ran down Athena's spine.
"Byron, please, you must think of our children, Aiden and Mia. We can't let them become orphans.
So, please.
Don't fall into the trap!
You must not fall into the trap," Athena thought.
"This matter is not his sole decision!" Annie's tone was exceedingly forceful. "Both Athena and Byron must die!"
Hensley didn't respond.

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?...
