"OK." Athena added, "You can ask him what he likes to eat. We can bring the food he likes."
Byron looked at Athena with a gentle smile. "He will definitely like you more after you guys meet."
"That's for sure! Few people wouldn't like me after they met me?" Athena said proudly.
Byron chuckled and wiped the coffee foam from the corner of her mouth.
The relaxing breakfast time passed quickly.
Byron and Athena switched to work mode and began a long on-site investigation with the designers.
Liam used Athena's connections and found a first-class international designer team for the project this time.
They lived up to their reputation, professional and creative.
They could clearly understand Byron and Athena's design ideas for the hotel and come up with a plan quickly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The design plans were finalized.
Athena and Byron wanted to stay on the island for another night and return to Girard City the next morning.
In the evening...
After work, they changed into casual clothes and walked along the coastline.
Bertha's hotel was the first place to be demolished on the whole island.
Now, it had been razed to the ground, and there was no trace of a hotel anymore.
Athena took a glance as they passed by.
In the past, when Athena heard Zora talk about the hotel and her father, she thought that the hotel meant different to her.
But after Athena found out what Bertha had done, she realized that this seemingly warm and loving place was actually a deformed cage, imprisoning Zora's father for the rest of his life.
"He must be thrilled to see this place turn into ruins, right?" Athena thought.
"Don't look."
Byron blocked Athena's gaze with his palm.
Athena snickered.
"I admit what I did to Paul wasn't right, but I'm not wrong about what happened to Bertha's family. They deserve it." Byron tried to explain.
"Well, let's not talk about who did what in the past." Athena gently stroked Byron's hand and pointed it out. "I didn't know you could row a boat."
Athena paused for a moment and snorted, "Zora once came to me to show off and said that you rowed a boat and took her to the sea."
In this season, the sea was no longer as magnificent as it was when Athena first met it.
"Nonsense!" Byron frowned. "She was the one who brought me along. Forget it. Let's not mention her name."
Byron had a grim look on his face.
Athena knew that he really hated Zora and her family.
Thus, they changed the topic.
