For a man who didn't love her...
It was not worth it.
In the study, Byron taught Mia very seriously.
But Mia didn't have much interest in learning.
Ten minutes later.
Mia closed the book, leaned on the table, and tilted her head to look at Byron. "Why are you unhappy?"
It was the first time in such a long while that Mia asked this kind of question.
Byron felt a bit teary.
Byron didn't know why he wasn't happy.
Since seeing Annie and mentioning Heather and that incident, Byron felt a pain in the neck and was distressed.
"I did something wrong in the past." Byron replied softly, "It came to my mind suddenly, making me feel guilty and sad."
Mia thought for a while. "Did you hurt anyone?"
Byron nodded.
He almost made it impossible for such a lovely angel to come to the world.
Byron's heart throbbed again.
"Did she forgive you?" Mia asked.
"Probably." Byron thought for a while, but he wasn't sure at all whether Athena forgave him or was forced to, and she didn't want to struggle with other troubles and then lived with him.
"If she forgave you, you don't have to blame yourself so much." Mia hesitated for a moment and put her little hand on the back of Byron. "My circle of friends is small, but you are one of the good ones."
Tears were glimmering in Byron's eyes.
"Sweetie, can I hug you?" Byron asked.
Mia got up and walked to Byron.
Byron hugged Mia, and she gently patted Byron's back. "It's okay. It's okay. Just pat a little, and you won't be sad anymore. If you're sad, Mommy will be unhappy too. Don't be sad. I'll cook some delicious food for you this evening!"
Acting like a mature child.
Mia comforted him with soothing words.
The unpleasantness in Byron's heart dissipated significantly.
"Let me cook with you!" Byron said merrily.
Then Athena touched Byron's cheek and kissed it. "Is it better now?"
"Yes."
Byron spoke and opened his arms to embrace Athena.
"Thank you, honey," Byron whispered.
"Since it's all right, I just got a call from the company. Regarding the tripartite cooperation plan, there are details to be confirmed with you, so my darling, you probably have to attend a video conference." Athena said.
Byron sighed.
"Why are they now not looking for me but directly for you?"
Athena laughed. "Who made you increasingly lazy with work lately? Where is the workaholic we knew?"
At last.
Athena was dragged and accompanied Byron to the meeting.
After the meeting, it was just in time for dinner.
Mia kept her word.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup
I am at Chapter 550 and there are almost 2 stories in 1. Aron and Evie's story could very well have been made into another story. Such a waste of time because I am reading for Byron and Athena, not Evie and Aron...
Is there no new updates after this one?...
