Julian never thought his comment deleted in seconds would cause attention.
So, when he saw a strange phone call from Mailand, Julian's first thought was that this month's money was coming.
He quickly answered the call,
"Hey! What are you doing? This month's money was supposed to be paid yesterday. Why now..."
"Julian,"
Athena said calmly.
Julian's roar suddenly stopped.
Inexplicable panic, like an invisible big hand, slowly tightened around Julian's neck, making him unable to breathe.
"Why is it you?"
Feeling guilty, Julian asked.
"I didn't cause any trouble for you outside, and I was obedient every day. However, the living expenses you gave me were getting less and less. Do you consider me a beggar?"
After all, he was Alivia's son.
Athena had no intention of abusing Julian.
Although Julian couldn't spend millions a month like before, the living expenses she paid were enough for Julian to live a life without worries about food and clothing.
But Julian was wasteful.
After he got the money, he spent it lavishly, thinking that he could get it again after spending it.
Athena wouldn't agree.
"What did you post on Twitter today?" Athena asked coldly without answering his question.
Julian was a little arrogant just now.
Hearing Athena's words, Julian felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
"What... what Twitter? I have stopped reading domestic information. Are you trying to find another reason to reduce my living expenses?" Julian planned to mess around.
At the same time, he regretted it. He wished he hadn't posted that comment.
"Julian, you know, I don't have any patience with you. There are only two choices in front of you now. Without living expenses, you support yourself, or you stop pretending to be stupid and tell the truth when I ask you."
Athena was impatient now.
Knowing he might lose the little money, Julian panicked.
"Athena, don't be so cruel. I just commented. Didn't I delete it quickly? Did it bring you trouble? At my age, even if I am not Byron's father, I'm still his uncle, right? If my mother knew you were abusing me like this..."
"How did Larry die?" Athena asked straight to the point, unwilling to listen to Julian's mourning.
Julian became silent instantly.
During those few quiet seconds, Athena wondered if Julian had died suddenly.
"Suicide. Don't you know?" Julian then replied.
"Why did he commit suicide?" Athena asked again, "Is it related to the mental illness you mentioned?"
