Byron extinguished the cigarette.
"How did you come over here?"
"I... I woke up and didn't see you. I was afraid..." Freya whispered, "Are you smoking?"
"Just relieving fatigue," Byron replied as he walked over, "It's cold outside. Let's go back to the ward."
"You didn't smoke before," Freya said softly, "Am I making you annoyed?"
"Freya, you need to set aside these thoughts in your mind. You have to live for yourself. Don't always worry about whether others will get annoyed or like you!" Byron said sternly.
To be honest...
Freya's dependence on him indeed made it hard for him to breathe.
But...
He couldn't just abandon Freya!
"I understand. I will! Please don't be angry!" Freya immediately said.
Byron felt extremely speechless.
He suddenly felt deflated.
"Come on. Let's go back to the ward."
Freya obediently followed him back to the ward.
Around the same time...
Athena was awakened by a nightmare.
She sat up in bed, feeling a bit dizzy.
She got up and went to the living room to find a thermometer. It turned out she had a slight fever.
She figured it was because she had exerted herself too much during the day and sweated. The fluctuation between hot and cold air caused her to have a fever.
Athena wrapped herself in a small blanket and sat on the couch in the living room. She had bought some fever-reducing medicine for pregnant women and a cooling patch.
After she waited for about half an hour...
The medicine was delivered.
She took the medicine, applied the cooling patch, and crawled back into bed.
Usually, she used to complain about Byron's body being too hot. Now that he wasn't there, the bed just couldn't warm up no matter what.
The next day, Athena woke up after 9 o'clock.
She measured her temperature again, and the fever was gone.
She just felt a bit weak.
She got up and went to the closet to put on a set of warm clothes.

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?...
