Chapter 57 I Have Resigned
Byron actually gave her two million dollars.
What was he buying this time?
She didn’t want to think about it carefully, for fear of disgusting herself.
But she would take this money as compensation for the
disaster she had suffered last night.
“Are you feeling well?” Gabe handed Athena a bowl of soup.
Athena put away her phone and nodded. “I slept well. Now I feel that I’m full of energy again!”
“But your face is still a little pale.” Gabe was concerned. “You have to take the medicines and
supplements prescribed by
the doctor and follow his order.”
“I will.” Athena finished the soup slowly.
After the doctor came to confirm that she was fine, he finally agreed to discharge her from the hospital
after telling her all
kinds of dos and don’ts.
Later, Gabe accompanied Athena to make a transcript.
When she was about to sign it,
she suddenly received a call from an unknown number.
Athena hesitated,
but she still picked it up.
“Athena, where the hell are you?”
Athena was speechless.
The caller was actually Ruby.
“Miss Holland, have you encountered any trouble at work?”
Athena asked.
“Did you flee the city on purpose? You know Byron is going to get engaged to that foreign woman
today!” Ruby said
viciously, “Aren’t you going to do anything?”
“I’ve already resigned,” Athena said calmly.
“I don’t buy it. Byron is getting engaged, and you are acting like an onlooker! Didn’t you threaten him Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
before? You said you would break up with him if he got married someday. And what are you doing right
now?”
“Miss Holland, if you want me to take Heather down, you should’ve come up with a better plan.”
Athena’s tone was filled with sarcasm. “If you are unwilling to watch Byron get married, you can go to
make a fuss yourself. Don’t ruin my
vacation!”
“Athe…”
Athena hung up the phone directly.
Gabe overheard their conversation and frowned. “I know this voice. She’s the bad woman who stopped
me at the pier last time and spoke ill of you!”
“Yeah, that’s her.” Athena nodded. “Gabe, it’s time for you to go home.”
“What about you? Aren’t you going back to Girard City?” Gabe asked.
“No.” Athena shook her head. “I’ve already handed my work to someone else. I’m going to find a
friend.”
“I’ll accompany you!” Gabe said hastily.
“No need.” Athena refused. “Go home. Your parents have been looking for you. Don’t let them worry.”
The Chambers family had been looking for Gabe all day.
Since the summer ended, Gabe’s grandfather had been in poor health.
And he was sent to the hospital again last night.
Gabe was also very worried.
“Then I need you to promise me. You can’t ignore me and must tell me how are you doing every day!”
Gabe seemed
determined, but he sounded like he was begging her.
Athena was helpless.
“Okay. I promise you.”
Gabe and Athena separated at the airport.
However, Athena left the airport after Gabe left.
Juliana saw her from afar and hurried over. “Oh, no. Your
face… Does it hurt?”
“It’s okay.” Athena shook her head. “I’m sorry that I have to trouble you. I need to go to find Logan.”
“Why are you so polite?” Juliana’s chubby face was full of guilt. “I’m the one who should apologize. My
men weren’t fully
prepared and let Arlan run away, which made you suffer so
much!”
“Come on. There’s no need to say such things.” Athena felt a bit helpless. “Let’s go to Grandpa’s place
to have dinner as
soon as possible!”
Logan’s house was more than 800 kilometers away from Salin
City.
Athena knew that if she took a plane, Byron would definitely
be able to find her whereabouts.
Therefore, she could only ask Juliana to drive.
Not long after they got into the car,
Juliana turned on the radio.
Coincidentally, they heard the introduction of Imbe Group.
“Athena, you work for Imbe Group, right?” Juliana asked.
Athena nodded. “Yeah, but I resigned!”
“Resigned? That’s fine! You can work for yourself in the future. With your ability, there’s no need to
work for someone else!”
“Alright. I’ll rest for a period of time and then think about what
I can do.”
“Okay! I’ll wait!”
