"What's this?"
Byron asked in confusion.
"It's a cute kitten!" Mia replied, "Do you have a cat? Can you raise it for me?"
"Why don't you raise it yourself?" Byron asked.
Mia shook her head. "My brother is allergic to animal furs, and I hate to see this one become a stray cat. Byron..."
Mia raised her big eyes and looked at him pleadingly. "Can you adopt it? I'll give you my monthly allowance, so you can buy dried fish."
Byron smiled helplessly.
"I'll keep it for you, but you must promise me one thing, Mia. You will never run away without telling your family." He said in a harsher tone.
Mia nodded. "It won't happen again."
Byron glanced at the cat.
It was a skinny, bald kitten. Apparently, it wasn't very fit.
Suddenly, Byron received a text message from Aiden.
He took a look
and was a bit surprised.
Mia was allergic to eggplant. So was Byron.
"Mia, let us have lunch first and then take the kitten to the pet hospital for an examination." Byron looked at Mia.
"Okay!"
Mia was starving.
She had never been so hungry all her life.
Byron took Mia to the restroom and helped her wash up. He even tied up her hair clumsily.
"Byron..."
Seeing the ugly braid in the mirror,
Mia gave Byron a bitter glance.
After a while,
Mia returned to the Office of the President, where a pretty girl helped Mia braid her hair and cheered her up.
"Thank you, pretty lady."
Earning double pay would enable them to have a trip to the island!
How could they not be envious of Sherry?
"Haven't you noticed one thing?" Sherry composed herself and said, "That little girl looks a bit similar to Mr. Crawford."
"Maybe she is the child of Mr. Crawford's brother. That will explain the similarity."
"You are right."
People dropped the topic soon
but began to ask Sherry for a treat.
Sherry was happy to say yes. She wished Mia could come here more often.
In that case, she would get more benefits!
Byron informed the restaurant and ordered a few dishes Mia liked.
The little girl was truly famished.
She didn't stop eating until she felt overfed.

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?...
