Chapter 41 A Heart of a Wicked Witch
Carlos thought that he had heard the man wrong, so he asked
again, “Who’s in trouble?”
“Someone exposed a lot of matters about Arlan on the Internet, committing crimes, murder, arson, and a lot of things. Now that the police are arresting him.” The person who came in asked in horror, “Carlos, what should we do? Would Arlan reveal…”
Before the man could finish speaking, Carlos kicked him.
Only then did the man come to his senses that there were still people from the head office in the room.
He immediately shut up.
“Mr. Butler, that’s enough,” Athena said.
She was not in the mood to watch those people continue to
act.
Carlos turned his head to look at Athena and wondered, “How could it be that Arlan’s affairs are exposed at this point? Could
“Miss Newton, is this your arrangement as well?” Carlos asked.
Athena shrugged slightly. “Who knows? It may be that karma will never be late, and the wicked will take their own course. I wonder if the police have caught him or not. I really want to be verified with Arlan for what you just said.”
Carlos stood there without moving.
It was in the autumn, but his forehead had already broken out in a sweat.
He knew very well that if Arlan were caught, he couldn’t get away either.
He thought, “This vicious woman must have discovered everything long ago and silently compiled a big net. When we are still dreaming of extorting hundreds of millions of dollars without any realization, she has quietly set up a trap that leaves no room for us. It’s a deadly trap. The things that Arlan committed are made public on the Internet. No matter how strong his relationship is, he can’t escape the death penalty. If to take Arlan as a reference, I wouldn’t end well either. But…”
Carlos gritted his teeth and said, “Miss Newton, my son is still young. He is innocent. Let my son go, and I will turn myself in.”
‘Mr. Butler, don’t worry. Let’s talk slowly.” Athena gestured for him to sit down.
Carlos’ legs seemed to be filled with lead and thought, “I have said that I would turn myself in. What else does she want?”
However, since she got his son, he had no choice but to obey her words.
After sitting down, Athena took out a blank notebook and a pen from her laptop bag and pushed them to Carlos.
She said gently, “When I was young, my grandfather taught me that crooks don’t appear alone. I don’t want to waste time investigating. So, Mr. Butler, please write down those crooks. one by one.”
Carlos was stunned.
“Miss Newton, I only know about my own affairs…”
Before he could finish speaking, Athena slammed the pen before him without speaking a word.
Yet, Carlos still felt a full sense of threat and oppression.
“Mr. Hale, do you have a seven or eight-year-old child in your family?” Athena turned sideways, and suddenly started chatting with Gideon.

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?...
