Chapter 224 The Wishful Thinking Clown

Seraphina wanted to explain.

A terrifying atmosphere suddenly emanated from Gideon. He had a cold expression on his face and said, "If anything happens to her, you're done. Remember that. You're done. Literally."

"Gideon... She did it to protect me. Why do you have to scare her?" Freya asked, her voice trembling.

"Freya, long time no see. How did you let yourself become like this?" Gideon asked.

Freya sighed helplessly.

Did he ever consider pushing her wheelchair for her?

Gideon didn't bother to pay attention to her.

His gaze turned toward the direction Athena had left.

She was clutching her belly just now. He didn't know if she had hurt the baby...

Athena was also worried about this.

Even if she lost her man, she wanted her two angelic babies to be safe.

"Thea!"

Byron caught up with Athena before she got into the car.

"What are you going to do now?" Athena asked impatiently.

"I want you to listen to my explanation!" Byron grabbed her arm and said in a deep voice.

"There's no need for that anymore, Byron. I've already said that I won't be trouble you can't get rid of. Freya is back. I won't stand in your way anymore." Athena paused for a moment. "Actually, from the first time you lied to me, I already anticipated this ending!"

"It's not like that!" Byron frowned. "I was afraid you would keep thinking about the substitute incidents. If you knew she was back, you would start overthinking, so I didn't want to tell you." "Well, it's all my fault, right?" Athena sneered.

"It's my fault..." Byron softened his tone, almost begging, "Thea, I no longer have those obsessions for her. Now I just want to live a good life with you."

Athena remained silent.

Byron continued, "Freya was married off to Europe against her will, forced by my grandmother, mother, and her own family. Her husband treated her poorly after the marriage. He has abused her, cheated on her, and even had her sterilized."

Athena furrowed her brows.

"In the end, it was also my responsibility for her being sent away. I wanted to accompany her in getting better and returning to normal life sooner. I also wanted to alleviate some of my guilt." Byron gently stroked Athena's wrist. "Her current situation is terrible. The day before yesterday, I told her that I was going to marry you. Unexpectedly, she took sleeping pills and attempted suicide yesterday..." All these things...

Athena felt suffocated and hopeless.

"What if she never gets better? Will you take care of her forever?" she asked.

"She won't be like this forever. I have already contacted the most authoritative experts!" Byron replied.

"Byron, I can't trust you anymore." Athena looked at him. "We both should calm down and think about it."

"Thea..."

Byron still held onto her hand tightly.

"What do you want me to do then? Forget that I was once her substitute and take care of your true love like a dutiful wife?" Athena's face turned pale. She smiled and said, "She doesn't look good. You should go back quickly."

"Promise me that you won't leave. You have to wait for me at home!" Byron insisted.

Athena laughed mockingly.

"Mr. Crawford, aren't you still using my loved ones as threats? Can I dare to run away?"

Byron's expression became even more unpleasant.

Athena shook off his hand, got into the car, and drove away.

When the car was far away...

Athena's tears started flowing uncontrollably.

What was Athena, after all?

A foolish and pitiful, delusional clown!
