Byron received a phone call from Sam after he had lunch.
"I appreciate your trust in Mia. I, too, want Mia to have fun with her best friend every day. However, in our family, my wife is the one who makes such decisions. I'll need to check with her first," Byron responded.
Sam laughed heartily at the other end, saying, "I understand. It's the same for all of us. I'll be waiting for your call then."
"Sure," Byron replied and hung up the phone.
At last, Byron had a reason to call Athena.
However... as soon as the call connected, it was abruptly disconnected.
Soon after, Byron received a short message: [In a meeting.]
Byron looked visibly dejected after he read the letter.
However, he suddenly remembered that Thea had faced even more of these moments during their five years together.
He then sighed softly.
Byron began typing the message: [Mia's friends from the nearby park (Mr. Ziegler and Mrs. Ziegler) would like to give Mia their golden retriever. Would that be alright?]
It turned out that Athena was in a meeting.
Previously, she had taken charge of the packaging design issue that had been stuck with Bloor Food Industry Company, and now, with active intervention, she was making the final adjustments.
Once the current version was finalized, Athena planned to meet Fitch's aunt at Bloor Food Industry Company personally.
She clicked open Byron's message and instinctively furrowed her brow after reading it.
"Let's take a break," Athena said, raising her eyes to the conference room. "We'll resume in ten minutes."
Once she finished speaking, Athena got up and went outside to call Byron.

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?...
