At this time, police sirens wailed as squad cars pulled up to the scene.
Red and blue lights flashed painfully in Athena's eyes.
The next moment, her legs gave out, and she collapsed.
After the chaos, Dorian rushed Athena to the hospital.
But there was a rain suddenly pelting the windshield halfway.
Dorian felt terrible.
Byron was still shackled to that pillar. Even if he was free, the churning sea would have swallowed him whole.
Dorian was deeply affected by the current situation.
Dorian knew that Robert had assassins lurking around every corner.
As Athena was vulnerable, only one place was secure enough.
They went to Stella Medical.
Upon arriving, Dorian reached for his phone to break the news about Byron.
Before he could dial, it rang in his hands.
"Mike..."
"Father, it's me." A panicked voice of Ottilie came on the other end. "Mike has been attacked... badly injured..."
"An assassin breached Lakin?" Dorian blanched.
Their state-of-the-art security could detect a fly on the wall. How had someone slipped past?
Fifteen minutes earlier, since learning Athena went after Byron, unease gnawed at Mike's gut.
The downpour only amplified his dread.
Visibility was shot, and cameras were useless in the deluge.
With Martin away, their defenses were down.

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?...
