“I’m not afraid of that.” Athena was extremely calm. “If I can’t
handle it, then I’m not able to be the CEO.”
“Athena..”
“Don’t call me like that!” Athena shook off Byron’s hand.
He was stunned.
“Why are you going back to Girard City? Why are you asking
me to go with you?” Athena asked.
Byron took a deep look at her and said coldly, “You are really
ungrateful.”
Byron turned around and strode away after saying that.
Athena was standing there, thinking that this would be the last time, right?
Byron wouldn’t be bothering her anymore, right?

He was shocked by the fact that Byron was in Salin City with
Athena.
He knew that Miss Ross had arrived in Girard City and the two families were preparing for the
engagement banquet.
They even arranged for the media to make the official
announcement soon.
He was just thinking about it when Athena arrived.
Gideon looked behind her. “Where’s Byron?”
“He went back to Girard City.”
Athena took out the computer.

“I’ve already ordered the meals. Let’s eat before we talk about
it.” Gideon waved his arm.
Athena was not looking good. She looked as if she was sick.
“Don’t blame me for the gossip, but are you two back together?” Gideon asked.
Athena looked at ni
nim.
Mr. Hale, it’s strange for you to say
that. When did I ever be together with Byron? And how can we
be back together?”
Gideon had nothing to say.
Athena was indeed more incisive.
“Miss Newton, I appreciate you very much.” Gideon picked up the coffeepot and poured a cup of coffee
for Athena. “I have
reviewed both the Maxwell Electronics matter and the overall
planning of the project here. You are excellent.”
“Just be direct. Enough of these riddles.”
Gideon laughed though being picked on.
“Okay, then I’ll be frank.” Gideon looked at Athena. “Stop hanging out with Byron. The marriage
between the Crawford family and the Ross family will bring huge benefits. They all put great importance
on it…”
“Gideon, you think too highly of me.” Athena smiled
speechlessly. “I’ve been sobered for the past five years, but are you confused instead? I’m just a
substitute for Freya. And as you said, the marriage of Byron and the Ross family will bring huge
benefits. Why do you think that he will give up these benefits for me?” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Even if he won’t, I’m afraid that others will worry about the
same thing.”
Gideon’s words were short but eloquent.
Holding back her gaze, Athena lowered her eyes.
What Gideon said made sense.
She knew nothing about that Miss Ross.
However, there wouldn’t be any women who could accept their husbands messing around with other
women.
Even if she was sheepish and could stand it, could the Ross. family stand it, too?
“I know what to do.” Athena replied lightly.
It seemed that she had to leave Girard City after paying a visit
to Salin City.
After dinner, Athena talked to Gideon about the situation on
the construction site as usual.
Most of the time, it was Gideon who was talking.
Athena just listened carefully and kept lots of records.

Athena replied, “I think there’s no need to have a meeting with Carlos anymore. We’ll just call him and
let him go directly to
the scene tomorrow.”
