My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup Novel

Chapter 88 Ill Protect You Athena had nothing else to say.

She went to the garage.

Byron followed after a while.

What do you want to eat? Byron got into the car and asked Athena gently.

Athena thought about it.

Lets go back to Girard City, she said.

Its dinner time, Byron said in a deeper voice.

He sounded impatient and unhappy.

Mr.

Crawford, where can I go for dinner with you? Your engagement to Miss Ross just came off the trending list not long ago.

Why? Are you already trying to attract media attention and put me in the spotlight? The news cannot be released without my permission, Byron said.

Athena lowered her eyes and laughed at herself.

Mr.

Crawford, the Internet is ubiquitous.

Besides, so many people want the marriage between the Crawford and Ross families to fail… They are playing games behind the scenes.

You may think of me as a pawn, but I dont want to be one.

Athena, you know thats not how I think! Byron growled.

No, I dont, Athena replied.

You… Byrons breathing was a bit heavy and uneven.

He stared at Athena for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Byron quickly gave up.

He hooked his arm around Athenas neck, pulling her close and resting his forehead against hers.

Dont worry.

Ill protect you.

Athena looked down.

Her eyes gradually turned red as tears welled up.

Protect? But Byron, youre the one who has hurt me deeply in the world, she thought.

In the end, they didnt stay in the Dunlop City for dinner.

However, Athena still got what she wanted.

They bought some food from KFC at the airport.

In the departure lounge, Byron watched as Athena enjoyed her food, Is this cheap food really that delicious? he asked.

Athena finished a spicy chicken wing.

: It may be cheap for you, Mr.

Crawford, but when I was a child, I could only have KFC when I was sick, she said.

Hearing that, Byron thought of something.

Lets go for a medical checkup tomorrow.

Athena was taken aback.

She quickly concealed her inner turmoil.

I just had one recently, so its not necessary, Athena said.

You just had one? Did they find any problems? Is that why Liam saw you taking medicine that day? Byron asked seriously.

Athena replied with a relaxed tone, I have a bit of anemia, and Im lacking some trace elements.

Its not medicine, just vitamins.

Youre too thin, Byron said.

Athena looked at Byron in surprise.

Mr.

Crawford, didnt you tell me to keep slim? Athena couldnt gain weight easily.

Forget about the nonsense I said before.

Lets not dwell on the past.

Byron became annoyed at the mention of what he had said before.

Okay, Athena responded.

She continued to focus on eating her chicken wings.

It was half past ten.

The plane landed in Girard City.

Athena ate half a bucket of chicken and fell asleep contentedly as soon as she got on the plane.

When they got off the plane, Byron whispered in her ear, You ate and then fell asleep like a little pig.

His words were tender and affectionate, carrying a hint of indulgent love.

Athena almost fell for him.

But fortunately, when it came to Byron, someone would always pour a bucket of cold water on her at the right moment, preventing her from falling too deeply under his spell.

Athena froze.

She looked over there.

In the crowd was Heather, who was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, waving her hands vigorously with a pure and charming smile.
