Athena wanted to scroll further, but Byron promptly turned off the iPad and looked at Annie sharply. "Why did you show us these?"
"I was wondering if there was any connection between Heather and these two annihilated families," Annie asked, struggling to maintain her composure.
"Why are you saying that?" Athena replied with a counter-question.
Annie's voice grew deeper as she spoke, "The families you saw earlier, plus two more that you haven't seen yet, all had some connection with Heather. So, when I heard about the suspected annihilation of people associated with you, I instinctively linked these incidents."
Byron's gaze was probing. "Perhaps someone within the Ross family cares deeply for Heather and seeks revenge through these means."
Annie said firmly, "They are not from the Ross family. There are Ross family members among the annihilated families too. While there might be conflicts within the Ross family, we would never harm each other."
"Miss Annie Ross, don't say this. I know quite a few examples of the Ross family members killing each other. For instance, how your father snatched the position of the head of the Ross family from your eldest brother," Athena bluntly exposed.
Annie's complexion turned unpleasant. "Alright, I admit that I've thought about it and even investigated in secret to see if there's anyone suspicious within the Ross family."
She continued, "Everyone is operating their businesses normally, and there doesn't seem to be anyone with such suspicions. However, there's one person I couldn't find any information on."
"Who?" Byron asked.
"I thought Miss Annie Ross and Heather were not familiar with each other," Byron maintained his indifference.
"After all, there's a significant age gap between us, and we are unfamiliar. But Heather is my sister," Annie sighed deeply and looked up at Byron. "Mr. Crawford, now that we have clear pictures of these two slayers, you must capture them as soon as possible and identify the mastermind behind all this! We can't let more people die in such a shocking manner!"
"Miss Annie Ross, you don't look well. Is your wound bothering you? Do you need me to have someone take you to the hospital?" Athena asked with concern.
Annie shook her head. "Capturing the culprits behind the killings is more important. By the way, I heard Mr. Crawford significantly influences foreign countries. You might want to look for Heather's mother there. I heard she married a powerful figure. The mastermind's actions are vicious, and it seems to match their style!"

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?...
