Chapter 63 For Athena

"Athena, it's time for dinner!"

Logan's voice came from behind.

Hearing his voice, Athena withdrew her eyes from Juliana's phone.

"I'm coming!" She responded.

Logan was nineteen years old.

Athena first met him four years ago, when he was thin and

short, but now the boy was quite different.

As she sat down, Logan proudly said, awaiting her praise, "Athena, I've gotten taller!"

"Why are you so proud? The credit should go to Sir Shawn."

Athena looked at the amiable old man.

Kevin Shawn, Logan's Grandpa, was seriously ill a few years

ago.

He hadn't fully recovered, looking thin and pale.

However, presumably because Logan had grown up and been sensible, he was always in a good mood, wearing a smile. "Athena, help yourself to more meat. You look much thinner

than the last time I saw you," Kevin said.

"Yeah, I said so, but she insisted I was amusing her," Juliana agreed.

"Now that you are here, you shall eat more and put on some weight!" Kevin added some more food to Athena's plate.

He was good at cooking, reminding Athena of her Grandpa.

Athena finished the dinner with a full stomach, while Kevin was delighted to see her eat well.

After dinner, Juliana had another schedule and took a taxi

to the airport.

The old town was tranquil after nightfall.

It was just a little cold.

Kevin went to bed early while Athena and Logan sat by the fire chatting.

"Athena, it's good for you to leave Imbe Group. I always feel that your president has an ulterior motive," Logan said as he

poured her a cup of hot cocoa.

Athena coughed lightly.

Logan had only seen Byron with her once.

How did he come to such a conclusion?

Was that his intuition?

"Mr. Crawford is engaged," Athena shook her head and said, "His fiancée is beautiful."

"I saw her, not as beautiful as you." Logan looked at her seriously.

Athena smiled.

She knew Logan never flattered anyone.

He did think so.

"Athena, you can stay here longer and needn't rush to replace a job. I can support you, for I earned handsome money by writing code a while ago!" Logan added, "Besides, I have saved the money you gave me in the past few years. If you are not satisfied with this small house, let's change to a bigger one later!"

Athena took a sip of hot cocoa.

She did want to replace a place to give birth to the child in peace.

However, staying here was not a good choice.

Logan had to go to school, and Kevin was not in good health,

so she wouldn't like to bother them too long.

"Thank you, but I want to return to Greeli City, closer to my family." She turned him down politely.

Logan looked disappointed.

Athena responded to him with silence.

Then Logan put it aside and went on to talk about other

things.

He talked endlessly until Athena kept yawning.

Perceiving her sleepiness, Logan let her rest while he went back room and continued working on the code.

After typing a few lines, he took out the sticky notes.

He picked up a pen and wrote down his goal: [I'll earn ten million dollars and buy Athena a big house in Greeli City!]

Then he stuck the note on the opposite wall with satisfaction, so he could see it as soon as he looked up.

There was heating in the room.

Athena covered herself with a thin quilt.

She didn't sleep well.

Somehow, she dreamed of Byron sending flowers to Heather.

Heather took the flowers.

The two smiled and hugged each other sweetly.
