Chapter 293 Your Dad Was Gone

"I see."

Athena responded indifferently.

"Get them away."

Jaxson motioned to the people behind him. They quickly stepped forward and took away the flowers and wine.

Athena placed the things she brought.

The sunglasses on Athena's face blocked her raging tears.

Looking at the photos on the tombs, she said inwardly, "Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, I hope you will forgive me for disappearing for five years. With your blessings, my babies were born and grew up healthily."

Athena touched her kids' heads.

"Aiden, Mia, the one over here is your grandma, and the two over there are your great-grandpa and great-grandma."

Before coming, Evie had already told the kids about Athena's elders.

And Athena often told the kids about her mother and grandparents' stories in the past.

Mia caught on first.

She bowed to the tombs immediately.

Seeing this, Aiden also bowed.

"Don't worry about my mom, Grandma, Great-grandpa, Great-grandma. I'm Mia. Now I have grown up, and I'm strong. I will protect my mom and Aiden." Mia promised adorably after bowing.

Athena was amused.

"I'm your elder brother, and I should be the one to protect you, you idiot," Aiden said helplessly.

"I'm not an idiot. I'm a heroine!" Mia talked back immediately.

Athena didn't stop Aiden and Mia from arguing in front of the tombs.

She hoped that her mother and grandparents could see this lively scene.

After bowing and standing in silent tribute, Evie took the kids to the store to buy food.

"Your mom has missed this ice cream for a long time, but I don't think it is so delicious," Evie said while eating it.

Evie was sitting in a row with the two kids.

And the kids also held one ice cream each.

Athena was still at the tombs, talking to her mother and grandparents.

"Evie, I'm a little scared."

Mia suddenly tugged on Evie's sleeve.

"What's wrong? Did you see anything?" Evie looked around in horror.

"There is a photo of my mom over there!" Mia said sadly, "Jaxson said that only a dead person would have a photo on a grey stone!"

"What grey stone? That's called a tombstone!" After Evie corrected Mia, she suddenly thought there was a tomb beside Stacy's grave. And that was the one George set up for Athena...

Mia must have seen that.

"Mia, I don't know how to explain it now. You'll understand it when you are five years older."

Evie didn't think Mia would remember these five years later.

Anyway, she had to fool Mia for now.

Aiden glanced at Evie.

Evie felt guilty after seeing this.

Fortunately, Aiden just glanced at Evie for a second.

Mia couldn't sit still, and soon she went to catch the butterflies with Jaxson and Alice.

Sitting next to Evie, Aiden was still eating the ice cream.

"Is my dad a bad guy?" Aiden asked suddenly.

Evie almost choked.

"What?"

"He must be a bad person. He forced my mom to feign death and run away, making her unable to come back to see her loved ones for so many years." Aiden's tone was very calm. Dimly, Evie thought that she was talking to Byron.

Aiden was strikingly like Byron in some aspects.

"Aiden!"

Evie looked at Aiden seriously.

"I told you about it a long time ago. Your dad was gone!"

Aiden was stunned.

"He died terribly!" Evie paused. "Of course, as you said, your dad was not a good person. Don't think about him since he was dead..."
