Athena laughed.
"So you're quite fair, huh? Don't let Aiden hear that. He used to be the best, but now we have Paul too. Aiden will get jealous!"
"This is a little secret between best friends!" Mia sniffled and proudly said, "The previous incident with Mr. Brian Hansen and Evie was a small secret between me and Evie. I never told anyone!"
That was Evie and Brian's secret affair now exposed.
"I heard that you and Aron also had a little secret?" Athena asked.
Mia nodded. "But Aron isn't considered my best friend. It's more like... a gentleman's agreement!"
"Mia knows about 'gentleman's agreement'?" Athena beamed with joy.
"I know much more than Mommy thinks!" Mia said, gently stroking Athena's cheek. "Mommy is the best Mommy, and Mommy's child will be the best child."
Athena's heart had broken into pieces. On this night, Mia carefully patched them up.
The next day, the last search and rescue team searching for Byron outside sent a message.
It showed that the search had ultimately failed.
All the islands had been visited, and every possible place had been searched.
No bodies, not even any washed-up clothes, were found.
There was no news of anyone finding a survivor and bringing him home.
They even investigated the nearby merchant ships that had been around during that time, one by one.
Athena finished answering the phone.
She sat in the cloakroom for half an hour. Her mind was empty.
Her heart felt like it was being torn apart.
But when she changed her clothes and went downstairs, Athena once again regained her composure, appearing as a confident and strong woman.

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?...
