Chapter 2052 Because of Him

That night, Athena and Evie were talking and laughing happily.

Occasionally, Aron would also talk about his childhood.

The atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Athena thought to herself, "Is this the calm before the storm?"

As the night grew darker, Evie and Aron went back to their rooms to rest by eleven o'clock.

Probably due to medication, Byron was a bit excited today full of energy.

Athena felt a bit uneasy and took the opportunity to ask Ennis when Byron wasn't paying attention.

Ennis quickly replied, "It's normal to be a bit excited on the first day, and medication can be used to aid sleep."

Athena put a tranquilizer in Byron's nighttime medication.

Byron never paid attention to what she gave him and obediently swallowed it.

Under the influence of the medication, Byron even lost his previous negative emotions.

Lying in bed, gently stroking Athena's cheek, he earnestly said to her, "Athena, don't worry, I will get better. We have gone through countless hardships to be together, and with our adorable child, how could I bear to see you all suffer? I will get better soon."

Saying that Byron leaned in and lightly kissed Athena's lips.

Then, the effects of the tranquilizer gradually took hold.

He himself didn't want to sleep.

His eyelids opened several times but were ultimately defeated by the power of the medication.

Athena looked at him and gently kissed him before saying, "Goodnight, Byron."

After Byron fell asleep, Athena got up and left the master bedroom, opening the surveillance temporarily installed at master bedroom.

Mike and Dorian were still in the living room when they saw Athena coming downstairs.

Both of them visibly relaxed.

"What's with those expressions?" Athena asked.

"It's nothing." Dorian waved his hand.

"I'm not so love-struck." Athena self-mockingly lowered her eyelids. "I still have Aiden and Mia."

If, even if there was only a one in ten million chance, the events at the bottom of the lake that day were to happen again, and she died by Byron's hand.

She would die oblivious and ignorant.

But for Mia and Aiden, the future days would be walking in the depths of hell.

"You haven't had a good rest for several days. Go back and sleep." Athena paused, looking at Dorian, "We're going camping tomorrow. Don't put all your attention on me. Spend some quality time with Ottilie." Dorian inexplicably felt an urge of crying.

Then nodded. "I understand."

"Goodnight."

Athena nodded lightly.

Before Mike left, he hesitated for a moment. Then he was pulled by Dorian to the doorway, and looked back at Athena.

The lights in the living room were almost all turned off.

Only the night light near the sofa was still on, and Athena, a small figure huddled in the corner of the couch, looked abandoned by the world.

Mike even had trouble recalling how vibrant she used to be.

Mike was about to go out when he suddenly sensed a gaze from the stairs.

Alertly looking over, he was taken aback.

It was Logan, barefoot, sitting on the steps, with messy hair, looking even more desolate than Athena.

Seeing that Mike noticed him, Logan waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

Mike sighed and silently cursed Byron in his heart.

Such a good family was ruined because of him!

The next day, Byron slept until late morning.

He looked at the glaring sunlight outside the window, took a moment to react, and then remembered who he was, where he was, and what he had to do today.

"Athena..."

Byron subconsciously reached out to embrace the person beside him.

But he was met with emptiness.

The remaining drowsiness immediately disappeared.
