Chapter 52 Die Together
If she was unlucky enough, she would be doomed tonight.
But even if she was meant to die, she couldn’t die in such a
deserted place unknowingly.
She came here because of that bastard Byron’s business.
At least, he must know about her death!
Besides, Athena knew Byron had always been omnipotent.
She believed that he must have a way to save her!
The call was connected, and her phone beeped thrice.
Athena kept stepping on the accelerator, and her foot even
became a bit numb.
Just when she thought that Byron was still mad at her and didn’t want to answer the phone, she was actually through.
In an instant, tears welled up in Athena’s eyes.
“Byron…”
“Miss Newton, Byron is taking a shower. What’s the matter?” A gentle and pleasant voice came from the other end.
Athena’s mind went blank in an instant.
She remembered this voice.
It was Ross.
Athena felt as if something had been blown up into pieces in
her mind, leaving nothing but emptiness.
“Miss Newton? Are you alright?”
“I’m okay. Wrong number.””
Athena hung up the phone in a panic, like a thief being
caught.
There was a turn just ahead.
She was briefly distracted. When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly turned left, but the front of the car still scratched against a sign beside the road.
Her phone rolled off the seat.
But Athena couldn’t pick it up.
Fear and despair overwhelmed her in an instant.
The cars behind were still in hot pursuit.
She vaguely saw someone sticking his head out from the window beside the passenger seat and yelling at her.
Athena glanced at the fuel gauge.
At her current speed, she couldn’t go further than fifty
kilometers.
Gradually, Athena calmed down.
The afterglow of sunset dyed the sky orange, making it seem magnificent.
She would rather die than be insulted of those disgusting
men.
Moreover, she knew she would be killed after being insulted in
every possible way.
Therefore, instead of being killed, Athena would rather kill
herself.
Thinking of this, she let out a long breath.
The wound on her left hand was somehow ripped open again.
And the gauze on her hand was soaked by her blood.
She held the steering wheel with her left hand and gently touched her belly with the other.
“I’m sorry, baby. I’m afraid I can’t bring you to this world. If there is an afterlife, I’d love to be your mother again.”
Athena continued to drive forward.
Although she had prepared for the worst, she still hoped that a miracle could happen.
If she could escape to a town or a crowded place, she would
be able to survive.
However…
The goddess of fortune seemed to despise Athena recently.
Soon, the car ran out of gas.
The surrounding area was still barren. It was even more deserted than before.

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?...
