Chapter 1779 Have You Given Up?
As Gideon spoke, he looked at Athena. "Let's dine somewhere else. This place has become stifling because of him. It's off-putting."
With that said, Gideon stood up.
As Gideon moved, it seemed like he stepped on something.
Gideon shifted his foot and looked down.
What Gideon stepped on was a tiny hairpin beneath it.
It probably belonged to Fred's daughter, likely falling off while struggling to stay with her father.
Gideon looked away and headed for the exit with a cold expression.
"Gideon."
As Gideon reached the door, Fred's voice called out to him. He paused.
"We've been through life and death together. I pulled you out of the rip current when we visited the mansion that year. I've risked my life for you! I may have wronged Sally, but I've never wronged you!"
Fred's voice choked up towards the end.
Without turning or responding, Gideon opened the door and left.
Seeing Gideon emerge, Dorian immediately checked on Athena.
Athena also stood up, glanced at the sobbing Fred, and then turned to leave the private room.
"You did that on purpose, didn't you?" Athena said as she stepped out, her gaze sharp on Gideon. "You knew that if you sent those two videos to me earlier, I wouldn't have mediated for Fred."
"Isn't it satisfying to confront someone face-to-face?" Gideon looked at Athena and retorted, "Haven't you always enjoyed that?"
Athena was momentarily speechless.

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?...
