Chapter 476 Ungrateful Monster

"From now on, let's put an end to this completely." Byron's tone was as cold as ever.

With that, he turned and walked back to the church.

Lola stood rooted to the spot.

After a moment, she squatted down, covered her face with her hands, and burst into tears.

She had fought for half of her lifetime, but in the end, she had gained nothing.

She couldn't accept it.

The two million dollars that Byron gave her each month was too little for her to do anything.

When she had cried enough...

The cold wind began to blow again.

Lola suddenly snapped back to reality.

She looked at the ruts on the ground and thought about that woman's face.

She didn't know who that woman was.

But her protection of Byron indicated her feelings for him.

In this world, no woman could accept her lover having someone else in his heart.

As long as it bothered her, she could be provoked.

Lola stood up and looked in the direction where Byron had left.

That hypocritical, ungrateful monster! This wasn't over.

She would ruin his love and make him pain for the rest of his life.

As Athena drove back home, she lowered half of the car window.

The cold wind blew in, clearing her head.

Five years was enough time for everything to become etched into her bones and flesh.

Her desire to protect Byron was as strong as ever.

After all this time, Lola still cursed like a madwoman when she saw Byron. It was plain to see that when the secret had first been revealed, she must have been even crazed.

Back then...

He had been seriously ill because of her death.

The thought made Athena feel a little depressed.

When she arrived home, Evie was already there, humming as she put fresh ingredients into the refrigerator.

"What are you doing?" Athena asked, leaning against the bar.

Evie jumped in surprise and put her hand on her chest. "Geeze, you just appeared like a ghost."

"Is that so? I think you were too immersed in the bliss of being newlywed to notice me."

Evie blushed and playfully twisted her body. "I failed to make breakfast last time. I have to redeem myself tomorrow morning."

Athena gave her a thumbs up. "But why don't you move to the lakeside and live with him? Aren't you tired of running back and forth?"

She was concerned about Evie.

But she couldn't say it outright.

"You don't understand. Even though we're married, we still need to go through the process of getting to know each other and falling in love." Athena thought about it.

She and Byron hadn't really had a traditional love story.

From the beginning, it had been a transaction, and it ended with her 'death.'

Perhaps after she resigned, she and Byron had briefly experienced something akin to a normal relationship.

"Then I wish you sweet love," Athena said with a yawn, "I have a presentation to make tomorrow morning. I should go to bed."

"Is it with Freya?" Evie asked eagerly, "Go ahead and sleep. You have to be absolutely stunning!"

"I just need the plan to be flawless."

Athena waved her hand and headed upstairs.

Evie withdrew her gaze, took another inventory of the ingredients, and happily went upstairs. Before going to bed, she set three alarm clocks.

Just in case she overslept.

Before going into dreamland,

She received a message from Aaron.

She quickly checked it out.

She smiled and fell back under the covers.

[Good night, Mrs. Timberlake. (From Mr. Timberlake who is feeling a little lost without his goodnight kiss.)]
