Byron accompanied Athena to the parking lot.
But something happened as soon as they reached the car.
"Byron!" someone called out.
It was Lola who had appeared out of nowhere.
And they were both startled.
Byron instinctively stepped in front of Athena to shield her.
But Lola still had a glimpse of her face.
"You... Where did you find her?" Lola demanded, shocked. "Sure enough, you've been coveting those jewels. Or did that old woman not leave them to Athena at all? Did you bribe the lawyer to add them in?"
"Go."
Byron squeezed Athena's hand and urged her to get into the car.
"You're not going anywhere!"
Lola seemed to have lost her mind as she lunged forward, trying to grab Athena's hand.
Byron pushed her away without hesitation. "Don't touch her!"
Lola stumbled back a few steps, nearly falling.
"You're a monster!" she screamed, pointing at Byron. "You caused me to lose my child and you knew the truth when I was a teenager. You never told me! You enjoyed my maternal love like a thief and then stole my company and had me locked up in an asylum for this woman. You tortured me! Abused me! And now you want to take those jewels for yourself!"
Byron didn't want Athena to hear that.
He escorted her to the driver's seat.
He might remain composed.

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?...
