George froze in place.
The person in his arms did not make a sound, but her shoulders were shaking slightly, obviously crying.
George was silent for a moment.
Thinking about it carefully, even after that tragic parting, when they met again, the two of them never hugged like this.
This was the first time...
George looked at Byron, who was walking over.
And also the last time.
"How old are you already? Still crying in your brother's arms, huh? Embarrassing." George looked away and patted Athena's back lightly, "Madam Stella was just comatose due to drugs. Her body functions are fine. The examination has been done, but it will take a few days before she wakes up. Go in and have a look."
"Don't go. Wait for me to come out."
Athena let go of George and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
In a trance, George felt like he had returned to the distant past.
Little people.
With her nose red from crying, that little girl held his hand and said while sobbing, "George, don't go, please! I don't want you to go!"
If...
George looked at the person in front of him.
If he did not leave at that time, would everything be different?
"Understood. I won't leave." George gently wiped away the big droplets of tears on Athena's face.
Nobody knew if he was talking to the Athena in front of him or the Athena of the past whose nose was red from crying.
Athena pushed open the door of the ward.
Seeing Rose lying on the hospital bed breathing steadily, her hanging heart finally fell back to its original place.
Outside the door, Byron walked up to George.
"Mr. Crawford, you're not going to chop off my hand just because of the hug just now, are you?" George raised his hand.
The scar on his wrist was clearly visible as he did not wear a watch.

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?...
