Chapter 55 He Will Kill It
“Gabe…”
Athena called him.
Gabe looked at her, then gazed down. “Does Byron know?”
“This child is mine. He doesn’t need to know.” Athena paused.
“You saved my child, so you have to keep it a secret. If Byron learns about it, he’ll kill my baby!”
Gabe was taken aback.
He looked up angrily. “Is he even a human?”
“Don’t be so excited,” Athena comforted Gabe.
Gabe’s eyes were red, and he looked at Athena in distress.
“Athena…”
“Don’t look at me like that. I’m fine,” Athena said with a smile,
“By the way, I was thinking just now. Since you saved my baby’s life, do you want to be her
godfather?”
Gabe was stunned.
Godfather?
“Let’s… Let’s talk about it later.” Gabe felt a little guilty.
“Okay.” Athena lay down on the bed.
She was really exhausted physically and mentally.
“Don’t think about anything. Rest well,” Gabe said beside her,
“Athena, you’re not alone. I’ll be with you.”
His words almost made Athena cry.
During the last two years of Romy’s life, she had always been
unconscious.
Since then, no one had spoken to Athena like this for a long
time.
Girard City.
At the Crawford Manor.
In order to prepare for tomorrow’s official engagement
announcement,
the Crawford family had been busy for a whole day. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
The custom-made dresses and engagement rings were all
delivered to the Crawford Manor.
But Byron disliked these tedious things the most.
Besides, Athena blocked his calls. And in the afternoon, she acted as if she never wanted to have
anything to do with him again. After sending those messages, she also blocked him on WhatsApp.
Now, Byron’s mood couldn’t be any worse.
As a result, the atmosphere in Crawford Manor was also very
oppressive.
The servants were all very nervous, feeling that something
bad might happen.
However, a maid was too nervous and accidentally knocked over the soup that had been prepared for
Heather on Byron.
The maid was so frightened that she almost fainted.
“Fortunately, you didn’t knock it over on his suit.” Heather came over with a gentle look. “Don’t be so
careless next time. Clean up this mess, will you?”
The maid hurriedly agreed and tidied it up.
“I’m going to take a shower!”
Byron was obsessed with cleanliness.
He was covered in soup and couldn’t bear it any longer.
Then, he went upstairs with a sullen look.
He even forgot to take his mobile phone.
Seeing this, Heather picked up his phone and also went
upstairs.
But as soon as she arrived at the door of Byron’s room,
the phone rang.
Heather looked down, and her eyes darkened instantly.
It was from Athena again.
This woman had already called Byron away yesterday…
Heather thought for a while and picked up the phone.
She knew this would be her first time talking to Athena, so she expected Athena to make a fuss.
However…
The woman on the other end sounded like a thief who had been caught. She hurriedly said that she
called the wrong number and hung up.
Heather chuckled mockingly.
She knew Byron was fascinated by Athena and always
wondered what kind of woman she was.
But now, it seemed that there was nothing special about
Athena.
She was just a coward who didn’t even dare to confront her.
Heather pushed open the door of Byron’s room and went in.
Byron’s room was full of coldness and austerity, just like
himself.
She looked around and sat down on the sofa in the small
living room.
Then, she saw two certificates on the small coffee table
opposite.
Heather looked at them and frowned.
Both were real estate registration certificates.
And they all belonged to Athena.
Judging from the date on the certificates, they were both issued today.
It seemed that Athena owned an apartment of 100 square
meters and a detached villa of more than one thousand
square meters.
“I guess Byron is willing to give everything to her,” Heather thought.
After a while,
Byron came out wrapped in a towel.
Heather turned around.
He was half-naked, and some water drops were still lingering on his wheat-colored skin, outlining his
perfectly shaped
muscles.
