Chapter 2 Break Up

By the time Gideon regained his composure, Athena had already left.

He stared at Byron in disbelief. "Did you see what I saw? Is that amazing girl your lovely secretary?"

Byron remained silent, his face gloomy.

Panic and confusion were evident in his eyes.

He remembered the agreement he had made with Athena long ago.

But he never thought she would actually leave just because he was getting married.

Throughout the years, she had always been obedient and never refused any of his demands.

He couldn't believe she would defy him this time.

“How dare she!”

Byron stood up, ignoring Gideon's chattering, and angrily stormed out.

After submitting her resignation, Amelia was ready to hand over her work immediately.

But as she returned to the secretary's room, Byron followed her inside.

"Is there something else you want to say, Mr. Crawford?" Athena looked at him, devoid of her usual tenderness from before.

Her attitude only darkened Byron's frown.

"Am I not good enough for you? Why would you make a scene like that?" He approached Athena slowly.

Her face paled with each of his steps.

She tried to step back, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him.

"Mr. Crawford, I have to leave once you're married. That's what we agreed on," she said softly.
