The car suddenly fell silent.
After a while, Athena looked at Byron, and the corners of her eyes turned red. "Byron, many years have passed, and we can't go back to the past. I live a very stable and happy life now. You know it's not easy for me... If you have a little sincerity towards me, I beg you not to disturb my peaceful life again."
Byron's heart seemed to be stirred by thousands of knives.
Athena suddenly spoke to him so calmly.
Byron panicked even more.
These words were not because of anger.
It was the truth she spoke when she was calm.
She... didn't want him at all.
Athena saw Byron become decadent gradually.
Her heart was full of mixed emotions.
Athena said, "I'll take you home. The apartment?"
Byron said, "Umm."
Where else could he go but the apartment?
Those houses without her traces were not home to him.
Athena started the car and drove in the direction of the apartment.
Byron seemed shrouded in a cloud and remained silent all the way.
Halfway.
Rose called.
Athena put on her headphones.
The phone connected.
Athena asked, "What's wrong?"
"I just heard that you stopped several businesses with Evie's family. What happened?" Rose asked.
Athena simply told Rose about the affairs of the Hansen family.
Of course, the part about Caspian was hidden.
"Bastard!" Rose was furious. "No wonder Evie is always absent-minded these days. I even saw her eyes swollen occasionally after waking up early!"
"Where's Mia?" Athena asked deliberately.
Byron's hand on his knee suddenly trembled.
"Mommy, Mia is here. Aiden and Uncle are talking on the phone!" Mia's soft voice came from the phone.
The smile on Athena's face immediately softened.

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?...
