My Mother Made Billions Of Dollars Following The Split

With her body still humming after their passionate meeting in the secretary's lounge, Athena Newton gulped for breath. Byron. Crawford refused to let go of her, holding on to her from behind. Enjoying the afterglow of their pleasure, Byron planted tender kisses on Athena's neck as they both relished the last remnants of their intoxication. After a 15-day business trip, Byron had departed. His personal secretary, Athena, stands behind them. Unexpectedly, she sensed relief, supposing that maybe he was sick of their five-year relationship.

To tell the truth, she couldn't help but smile at it. Five years prior, her grandmother, Romy Lewis, was severely ill and in dire need of financial assistance. in need of cash. When there was no longer any hope, Byron entered. Word spread that Athena resembled his real love, Freya Bates, who, following Byron's accident that put him in a coma, traveled overseas and married a well-known European aristocracy. After he healed, he found it tough to go on and understood he'd been ignored. And that's when Athena entered his life. He arranged for her to receive the greatest medical treatment and assisted her in paying off her family's obligations. grandmother. She assumed the position of Byron's secretary while also falling in love with him behind his back.

She'd molded herself into a mirror image of Freya and hidden who she really was for the last five years. She put on the act of a docile and accommodating lady, going to great lengths to win his approval. However, she was exhausted by the nonstop performance and yearned for Byron to find someone to replace her. She was surprised to see that Byron went straight to work after returning from his business trip, rather than heading home. He didn't wait for her to finish work since he was so consumed by need, and he took his pleasure harshly, leaving her completely exhausted. Athena gently reminded him, "Mr. Crawford, after a little rest, The stockholders are in the conference room, ready for you.

"Humph," he said, his tone abruptly monotonous. He let go of Athena, making a beeline for the restroom. She exhaled a breath of calm. Byron's extra suit was in the lounge, so she headed there despite the pain in her lower body. Byron got into his suit after taking a shower, and Athena helped him put on his tie with gentle assistance. He couldn't help but note how intelligent and well-behaved she was when he glanced down at her. He felt happy. A check is lying on the table. $20 million," he declared. serenely. Additionally, the Lakin villa will be given to you. name." Stunned, she gazed blankly at Byron. Was this a payment of any kind? A departure severance payment with her? "Why would you, Mr. Crawford?" He felt a surge of happiness at seeing the bewildered expression in her eyes. Gently stroking her chin, he whispered, "See it as a reward."

An award? What had she done to merit a prize of this kind? A wealth of twenty million dollars, and the Lakin mansion alone was more than five times more valuable. Byron had always been giving, but he had never given her so much in one go before. Using his thumb to softly stroke Athena's somewhat swollen lips, he said, "If you follow my instructions, there will be other sources from whence that originated. Athena found it hard to believe. What was his meaning? Did he not intend to end their relationship already? She looked away, still looking lovely and elegant in her façade. With a nod, she said, "Yes, Mr. Crawford." She wasn't sure whether it was all in her head, but it felt like Byron's shoulders were somewhat relaxed in relief.

Superb, Byron said. "This is the only thing you can do." afternoon. You are free to return home. She gave another nod. Byron then walked out the door. Picking up the check from the table, Athena scowled. She suspected that Byron had become weary of her throughout the previous half-year. She had even seen a glimpse of him not too long ago. conversing with a girl who strikingly resembled Freya. "This isn't possible." Her mouth dropped silently. During their session, her phone fell beneath the bed, and she heard a buzzing sound from there. She grabbed it and read the headline on her alerts right away. [Breaking News: Imbe Group President to Wed Ross Family's Youngest Daughter, Forming Potent Coalition] Her eyes darted between her phone and her heart. as well as the check. Byron was the president of Imbe Group, to be exact. The lounge was still a mess. Byron's suit and her skirt were dispersed all over the floor.

She was laughing so hard that she couldn't contain herself. This was the rationale behind his sudden lavishing of her with cash and property. Even though he was married, he wanted to acquire her and keep her as his submissive lover. Abruptly experiencing nausea, she hurried to throw up in the restroom. She looked pale and dejected when she later glanced in the mirror at herself. Byron was the greatest when it came to being vile. Even though he was about to tie the knot, he was unable to let go of Freya and refused to call it quits on Athena. "Oh no! Does he believe that I like filling in for him? Her hands clenched into tight fists. "I gave up!" She dressed, wrote her letter of resignation, and headed to the president's office right before Byron's meeting. was coming together. As she approached his door to knock and go inside, she heard a boisterous, playful voice within.

It was Byron's buddy, Gideon Hale, who came from a prosperous Hutchin City family. "What's your deal with Athena now that you're getting married?" After a little period of stillness, Byron said calmly, "Nothing. She's staying with me as usual. "Is she willing to be a mistress?" Gideon asked. "As long as I give her enough money, she will do anything." His voice was rife with scorn and ridicule. Outside the door, she remained still, her heart prickling with suffering. After all, their "relationship" was only transactional. Five years later, she was just a product in his eyes. to be used for play at the appropriate cost. "Really?" Gideon's tone had become animated. "If I present her with a greater cost, will she agree to my suggestion?"

Liam Carson, Byron's assistant, shouted up from outside the door before anybody else could reply. How are you doing, Miss Newton? She abruptly stopped thinking and gave him a nod. then went to Byron's office and knocked on the door. Gideon's blushed a little from shame. He smiled at Athena after a little pause, as though he had said nothing improper. "Good day, Miss Newton." She was repulsed by Gideon's remarks and decided to ignore them. She approached Byron directly, and he was still wearing the same attitude of coldness. "Did I not tell you to return home?" He asked, clearly annoyed, in a low voice. "Mr. Crawford," Athena said, her customary kindness gone from her voice.

With resolve, she extended her letter of resignation. "I'm calling it quits." His face reddened instantly. "Explain what you mean." "We made a deal when we were dating-I would never be your mistress, and I would leave as soon as you got married." Athena put the missive down on his desk. Athena turned and left after that. She passed Gideon and halted, appearing utterly stunned. She was sick of having to be kind and patient. She gave the lusty man a scathing gaze, treating him like a piece of trash. Gideon's inquiry was answered clearly with just one glance. She would never allow herself to be used as a prop!
