Athena unlocked the door, pushed it open, and entered.
The yard, once organized by Romy, was now overgrown with weeds.
Fortunately, before Romy left, she gave many beautiful plants to the neighbors.
Otherwise, they would probably be withered by now.
The grape trellis, which the family used to cool off in summer, was also worn, and the vines were withered.
After a short stay in the yard, Athena opened the door and went into the room.
Most of the furniture was covered with white cloth.
Athena stood at the door and looked.
Sure enough, every corner of the house embraced the reflection of happiness, leaving Athena with a lump in her throat.
After a while, she walked into her mother's bedroom.
The bedside cabinet in the room was full of her mother's things.
She had few relics.
Except for some clothes and a small amount of jewelry, there was only one photo album.
Athena's grandfather liked taking pictures very much when he was alive.
In the photo album, most were photos of the family traveling.
Athena wanted to take the photo album when leaving here, but Romy refused.
For this reason, Athena went on a hunger strike for two days.
In the end, Romy said, "This is your mother's favorite. We'll leave here and need to leave something for her."
Athena cried all night, holding the photo album.
Then she carefully put it in the bedside table drawer and left with Romy.
Athena took out the photo album and gently brushed the cover.
There was graffiti she had drawn when she was young.
Athena took off the protective covering and carefully opened it.
She laughed with tears in her eyes.
The first photo was of her when she was just born.
Athena was like a crumpled ball in the photo.
Her mom wrote in the lower right corner. [My ugly baby.]

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?...
