Chapter 101 Be Tough

Evie finished venting her anger.

She sat down dejectedly and looked at Athena tearfully. "Athena, how about you ignore everything and just run away? I don't believe that Byron dares to hurt innocent people! Doesn't Miss Ross restrain him?" Athena was helpless.

"He actually does."

Athena knew Byron very well. He was a man of his word. If he weren't, Athena wouldn't be coerced. Would she?

"I can't risk your or other people's lives that I am concerned about." Athena continued.

She was not deeply involved with many people.

There were only a few people in her life.

Athena couldn't let them be affected by her shitty life.

"But he is going to get married. How can you continue..." Evie was extremely anxious.

"So, I have to replace a way to prevent Byron from retaliating against those people I care about and to escape smoothly,"

Athena said slowly and thoughtfully.

"What can I do?" Evie asked quickly.

Athena looked at her. "You? Your priority now is to stay away

from the idiot Baxter."

"No problem!"

As for Baxter...

In the beginning, Athena could see George Klein in him. She had some crush on him, but not to the degree of liking.

Afterward, Baxter humiliated her because of Byron. That behavior killed Athena's last feeling for him.

But now...

No matter what Baxter wanted...

He got Evie into the mess. Athena was totally done with him.

"Yesterday, you said you were going to move out... Did you mean going back to his place?" Evie asked.

"I will move back to my old apartment. He doesn't live there." Athena explained.

Her phone rang suddenly.

She took it out and checked on the caller ID. Her face darkened

slightly.

"Mrs. Lola Crawford?"

"Lola Crawford, Byron's mother," Athena said.

Evie was shocked when she heard the words.

Without responding to Evie's reaction, Athena answered the call.

"Mrs. Lola Crawford."

"Miss Newton, are you available?" Lola asked.

"Yes, I am. What can I do for you?"

"Madam Crawford is making a fuss and wants to see you," Lola said coldly, "If you are available, just come over."

For the Crawford family,

Athena didn't care about any one of them.

Due to her status, none of the Crawford family was nice to her.

Alivia was an exception.

Athena only went to take care of her once, and the old lady missed her.

"Okay. I'll be there shortly."

Athena was about to hang up.

Lola's voice came again. "Miss Newton, did you meet Heather

last night?"

"Yes."

"What do you think of her?"

"She is very beautiful, easy-going, and gentle."

"Being gentle doesn't mean she is weak." Lola smiled, "She is the youngest daughter of the Ross family, and she is very doted on. Her parents and brothers have never been soft on those who want to hurt her."

"Mrs. Lola Crawford, be frank. You don't have to beat around the bush like this. I know you want to threaten and make me leave your son." Athena took a deep breath. "But before that, should you figure out the current situation?"

Even couldn't see her face, Athena could feel Lola was stunned for a moment.

Athena had always been nice and tamed, no matter how sarcastic Lola said. She seemed unable to hear it.

She was weak and gentle.

She suddenly became tough.

Lola was caught off guard.

"I know the current situation well. It's you. You don't know!" Lola raised her voice.

"Really?" Athena sneered, "Then you must know I have resigned. and left Girard City. Your son used my relatives and friends to coerce me to come back. Are you aware of that?"
