"Yeah. Because I was very sad," Byron lowered his eyes and said with a rueful smile.

"You thought I was with Gabe?" Athena asked softly.

"Bertha said that she went to look for you. Everyone was saying that you were going to marry a jewelry tycoon, and that was Gabe." The more Byron spoke, the more aggrieved his tone became.

"It's just fake news from the shifty press." Athena gently stroked Byron's back with her palm and explained, "Do you know why I brought Gabe here?" Byron shook his head.

Athena looked at the magnificent coastline in the sunset and said, "Liam told me that when you came to check out this island, you stood here and watched the sea for a while and said that I would definitely like it and decided to buy this place.

"You also told him to build a house above water here, because I used to say that when I went to the island, I would definitely stay in a house above water. I brought Gabe here and told him everything. So when you were vomiting blood, I was rejecting a jewelry tycoon for you."

A faint smile broke across Byron's face.

"You must've been so weak! You even vomited blood. That must have been hard." Athena pressed her hand against Byron's chest.

Her heart ached for him.

"No matter how hard it was at that time, it's all in the past." Byron stretched out his arm and gently hugged Athena. He rested his chin on her head and said, "I know it won't happen again." Athena hugged him back.

The sea breeze was soothing, as if it didn't want to disturb the couple who had gone through countless difficulties.

When they came back from the walk, Athena received a phone call from Ennis.

"I've already returned to Girard City, Ms. Stella. I have a lot of free time now. You can make an appointment with me based on your schedule." Ennis' voice was as pleasant as the spring breeze as ever. "My husband and I are currently overseas on a business trip. We'll go back to Girard City tomorrow. How about we meet the morning after tomorrow?"

When they got back tomorrow, they had to arrange a meeting in Imbe Group to sort out the follow-up procedures of this project.

"Okay, do you know the address?"

"Yeah!"

"Then we'll meet at 9:30 in the morning?"

"Okay. See you then."

"Yeah. I'm looking forward to meeting you again, Ms. Stella."

Then they hang up.

"Ennis is in Girard City. I made an appointment with him for a consultation at 9:30 a.m. the day after tomorrow," Athena said to Byron, who was packing. "Alright," Byron responded.

Athena was in a good mood today, and he didn't want to ruin it.

Therefore, Byron decided to tell her about another Byron's existence when they got home tomorrow.

They both slept well that night.

The next day, Athena boarded the plane with Byron with a bright smile.

The plane landed in Girard City at noon.

They headed to the Imbe Group and had lunch, and then Athena and Byron attended a meeting about the island project.

This was the first time they appeared at the company's meeting together after Byron's accident.

The staff in Imbe Group was in uproar.

Someone even took photos of them arriving together and posted them online anonymously.

"As I said millions of times, they are perfect for each other!"

Whoever took it found the best angle.

In the photo, Athena was talking and Byron was staring at her.

What people said was true.

Loving someone was the hardest thing to hide.

Byron's gaze perfectly confirmed this sentence.

Netizen 1: [He loves her so much!]

Netizen 2: [It's not just love. Compared with the photos of them in the past, in addition to love, his eyes are now full of admiration for Athena!] Netizen 3: [It's like every part of Byron seems to be saying, 'Awesome, isn't she? She's my wife!']
