Chapter 1948 The Reason
"Did something happen to the Campbell family?" Athena asked in a deep voice.
Although the Campbell family had gradually declined over the years, they still had the foundation of an old-money family.
If something happened to the Campbell family, there would be news and rumors outside.
Jacob heard Athena's question, lowered his eyes, and smiled speechlessly, "Athena, everyone says you are a good person. You have always been giving opportunities to all kinds of people... Why haven't you thought of giving my sister one?"
Athena was slightly startled.
She subconsciously recalled Maura, who had been provoking her.
"She was just jealous of you, but didn't you take it out on her later?" Jacob looked at Athena with despair. "She was my only sister. Byron made me send her to a mental hospital by myself, and she was driven crazy there! She is only 24 years old, 24!" Jacob roared hysterically.
"Jacob." Byron, who had been silent, spoke coldly.
Jacob's body stiffened subconsciously.
Then he looked up at Byron with his scarlet eyes.
"It was your sister who did the wrong thing, and the Campbell family made the decision." Byron's tone was calm, without any emotion. "After I lost my memory, you had a lot of opportunities to bring her out, but you didn't for the sake of benefit. Why am I the one who is the sinner now?"
Jacob's facial muscles twitched.
His expression gradually became ferocious.
"You said I didn't investigate what happened to you before I came. Actually, I did." Byron continued, "Athena said you have always been one of the people I trust. Now that you betrayed me, I would certainly try to find the reason first."
Jacob suddenly became excited.
"You know? You know what happened, and you asked me why I betrayed you?" He slapped the table and roared angrily.
So, Jacob intended to expose the matter from the beginning.
This was his revenge against Byron as well as his own family.
"Jacob, why do you have to do it?" Athena asked in a deep voice, "You are such a good lawyer. Even if you leave the Campbell family, you will still have a bright future..."
"My wife and kid are dead! Why do I still need a bright future?" Jacob roared, "Do you know how I have been through the past few months? Because of the family honor, my grandparents and my parents threatened me with death. My wife and kid couldn't even have a funeral! Every night, I could see them crying for help in the flame every night!"
He finished his rant and sat down again nonchalantly, letting out a long breath.
"You guys got me anyway. You can do whatever you want." He leaned back on the chair and spread his hands fearlessly.
"Jacob, do you really think I am the cause of this tragedy?" Byron asked in a deep voice.

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?...
