He glanced at her with a frown.
Karen and Byron seldom interacted with each other.
Furthermore, she had heard a great deal about Byron’s usual approach.
When he assumed control of the Crawford Group, Byron was never merciful to his elders, not even to
his mother.
Moreover, Karen was just a distant cousin. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Taking a step back, Karen cringed.
Afterward, Byron turned his head and asked, “Are you suspecting that you’ve been framed?”
“Yes,” Athena responded.
“Who do you think you are?” Lola snapped furiously.
“Byron, a girl asked me just now if I could help her pick up a small ball. Since it was just a few steps
away from me, I headed over right after informing Mrs. Alivia Crawford. As soon as I turned around, a
boy dashed over and pushed Mrs. Alivia Crawford’s wheelchair while running off. When he got to the
slope, he let go of the wheelchair and ran away. If my prediction is right, it’s unlikely you’ll find those
two children if you try
now,” Athena explained in a deep voice.
Lola barked furiously with her lips twitching, “The surveillance cameras aren’t working, so you can say
whatever you want!” She then hollered at Byron, “Byron, whose side are you on now?”
Byron looked at Athena.

After about two seconds of silence, he said, “Liam, go find those kids.”
“Copy that!”
Liam nodded immediately, and then walked out quickly.
“Byron?” Lola questioned, seemingly in disbelief.
“You said just now that she intentionally hurt Grandma to vent her anger.” Byron took Athena’s hand
and stood in front of her to shield her. He then turned to look at Lola and said, “But that reason doesn’t
make sense. Why would Athena want to vent her anger?”
“Of course, it’s because you want to marry Heather! This vixen…” Lola said sneeringly.
“She’s probably happier than you that I am getting married to Heather,” Byron said in an icy cold voice
as he gripped Athena’s hand with greater force. He continued, “She immediately resigned when she
heard about the engagement and left quickly. Now that she is back, I have threatened her with her
relatives and friends, compelling her to return to the company.”
The members of the Crawford family present, including
Heather, who was soon to be part of the Crawford family, were dumbfounded.
“Byron, what nonsense are you spouting?”

“Since she doesn’t want to be with me, she naturally won’t feel resentful and take revenge on Grandma
for the reason you just mentioned.” Byron paused for a moment before adding, “I’m also really curious
to know if this was truly an accident or a premeditated act.”
Lola’s face was incredibly sullen.
She was glowering aggressively at Athena as if she was dying to devour the latter.
At this moment, the person whom Athena had never met before, spoke up.
“Lola, I have to rush off to attend a reception, so I won’t be staying any longer!”
“Since you have something on…” Lola answered.
“Until the outcome is out, no one can leave!” Byron interrupted Lola coldly.
Stunned to hear that, the stranger asked, “What… What does
this mean?”
Literally what I just said,” Byron said as he motioned to the bodyguard. Afterward, he led Athena over
to the other side.
Athena was a little stunned.
When she decided to fall out with the Crawford family, already mentally prepared.
She had expected that Byron might throw a tantrum.
The pride and glory of his family had always been very important to Byron.
In any case, they mattered more to him than Athena did.

“Byron, how about I take Miss Newton to get the wound on her face treated while you have a good talk
with your mother?” Heather suggested as she stepped forward.
“There’s no need for that.”
Byron didn’t turn around.
He coldly rejected Heather.
