Athena and Byron went up the steps slowly with the flowers.

Although Athena had been very busy in the past year, she came with Aiden and Mia for an annual visit.

Today, Athena's mood was different from any time before.

As she knelt in front of the tombstone and wiped the dust off the tombstone, she suddenly thought of the moment more than six years ago. She had just found out that she was pregnant and came here alone to tell her mother, grandpa, and grandma that she had decided to keep the baby.

At that time, she simply thought she was over with Byron.

She never thought things would come to where she was now.

She also never thought that one day, she would bring Byron to see them.

"Mom, grandpa, grandma," Athena said softly after wiping the tombstone and then glanced at Byron. "I brought my husband to see you today."

Byron welled up, and his Adam's apple rolled as he tried to control his emotion.

"Mom, grandpa, grandma, I am Byron. I'm sorry to come to pay homage to you so late. I will come more often in the future."

Athena smiled and asked Byron to put the flowers they bought in front of the tombstones.

When Byron did this, Athena looked at her grandmother's photo. It felt as if she were gazing at Athena lovingly.

Tears suddenly streamed down Athena's cheeks.

"Grandma, please help me. Help me bless him. I don't hold a grudge for anything in the past. We will make up for all his mistakes in the past together..." Athena prayed in her heart.

At this time, Byron was also silently confessing and making a promise to Stacy's family.

He was repenting for his past misdeeds and the pains he inflicted.

And he was promising to protect Athena in the future.

They stayed in the cemetery until dusk before leaving.

Athena took the same old path. Although the owner of the canteen was different, they still sold the same ice cream she had before.

She bought two and shared them with Byron.

They ate while walking.

Athena told Byron about the reason for eating this ice cream.

Byron put his arm around her waist and pressed his forehead against hers.

Athena smiled at him, "Make a guess. Is your daughter complaining at home now that we came to Greeli City without them?"

"Yes." Byron smiled and nodded. "She just sent me a WhatsApp message."

Athena laughed.

"We can't take them with us wherever we go. From now on, we must ensure that we travel together yearly, just the two of us," Athena said immediately. She wanted to say more about a better future to give Byron more hope.

"Okay." Byron looked at Athena tenderly.

Athena caressed his cheek and touched him with her lips. They were cold because she had just finished eating ice cream. "Let's go! We're going home!" The slowly setting sun prolonged Byron's and Athena's shadows on the ground.

Athena stopped by to pay a management fee when they were at the gate.

At this time, Byron's cell phone rang.

It was the boy calling.

Byron glanced at Athena and walked aside to answer the phone.

"Mr. Crawford, we are back in Girard City." The boy sounded happy. "When are you free? I brought you some delicious specialties!"

"Let's meet tomorrow. I'll ask the driver to pick you up." Byron said gently, "Do you want to have lunch with my wife at noon?" "Okay!"

The boy said happily.

"But there's no need to pick me up. Just tell me where it is, and I'll ride there by myself! Grandma bought me a new bike. It's cool!"
