Chapter 406 Benefit Maximization

After hesitating for a moment, Athena helped Byron out of the bedroom. And Byron directed her to take him to the sofa.

On the sofa, there were pillows and a folded quilt.

At first, Athena didn't overthink and helped Byron to lie down. "Where's the medicine?"

"The second drawer under the TV..." Byron replied.

Athena immediately got up to look for the medicine, but Byron suddenly grabbed her wrist. He looked at her with red eyes aggrievedly. "You won't take the opportunity to run away, will you?" Athena was speechless.

She didn't have this idea just now, but now that Byron had reminded her, it seemed it was a choice.

"I won't," Athena said impatiently.

Byron hesitated for a moment, then let her go.

After that, although he felt uncomfortable, he kept his eyes open and stared at her busy back.

She found the medicine and prepared water...

Then she went back to him.

"Take it."

Byron took the medicine, threw it into his mouth then took a sip of water.

She used to coax him to take medicine.

But now she was impatient.

Did she not love him? Was she in love with the daughter's father?

Thinking about it, Byron felt pain.

"Why did you take the medicine, and your face became paler?" Athena frowned. "Maybe we should just go to the hospital."

Byron shook his head.

Taking advantage of Athena's inattention, he held her hand and put it on his chest. "I don't mess around anymore. Don't leave. I get scared on my own."

Scared?

When did Byron get scared?

"Oh, yes. He is afraid of limp bugs and snakes." She thought.

"Thea." Byron held her hand tightly. "Now Grandma's dead, and I'm all alone."

Athena was taken aback.

Byron closed his eyes. He was close to tears.

"No way..." She whispered.

"Do you know why Lola suddenly turned against me?" Byron's voice was very soft as if he was afraid of alarming something.

Athena thought for a while and asked, "Why?"

Initially, it was rumored that Byron had a falling out with Lola because of Freya.

But actually, the rift between Byron and Lola should have appeared earlier.

At that time, Athena was not dead yet.

"She suddenly discovered that the son she had raised for more than twenty years had no blood relationship with her." Byron laughed absurdly.

"You..."

Athena was shocked.

She had never heard of this matter.

"Do you know how I was born? Whose child am I?" Byron suddenly opened his eyes. His beautiful eyes were filled with weak that Athena had never seen in his eyes.

"If you don't want to say it, don't," She said.

Athena already vaguely felt that there would be a tragedy behind this.

"I want to tell you," Byron whispered.

Athena didn't speak and let him tell her by default.

"My biological father should be called Larry Crawford."

"Your uncle?" Athena was surprised. "But... Your age... When you were born, he had passed away for three years."

"Larry's condition was not right. Grandma had noticed it a long time ago. Just in case, she kept his sperm in the name of a medical examination. In the second year after his death, Grandma found a top female student from a prestigious school and paid a lot of money to buy her ovum. After the embryo was synthesized, it was put into the body of Lola, who was doing test-tube babies," Byron said.

Athena was shocked.

But Byron laughed. "I knew about this when I was eleven years old. Grandma said... This is called maximizing benefits. She retained her eldest son's blood and fulfilled her youngest son's dream to be a father.
