At the same time, the wind and rain poured in through a small opening of the window in a hotel in the city center.
The strong wind blew an investigation report on the table to the ground, and some rainwater splashed on the report.
The name Larry Crawford was blurred by water drops.
At this time, someone came over. He bent down and picked up the report with his bony hands.
His eyes scanned the content in the report.
[The heir to Crawford Group, a well-known conglomerate in Mailand, brutally murdered his girlfriend. The 23-year-old Mailand woman had all her internal organs and corneas removed. She died in a miserable state.]
Byron hadn't slept so soundly for a long time.
When he woke up, it was just dawning outside.
Feeling his hand being held, he looked sideways, seeing Athena holding his hand tightly and sleeping next to him.
She was a light sleeper.
As Byron woke up and moved, Athena woke up with a start. Looking at him, she reacted for a moment and straightened up. "Are you awake? Is it dawn yet?"
Athena looked sideways out of the window.
The curtains were not completely closed, and some skylight was faintly visible.
"Did you sleep like this all night?" Byron asked.
"I fell asleep before I knew it." Athena stood up. "Oh, my waist..."
Byron quickly stretched out his hand and took her into his arms.
"Don't do this next time. If you sleep next to me, we can still hold hands," Byron said seriously.
Athena laughed, rubbing his neck lightly. "I got it."
"It's still early. Sleep a little longer." Byron knew that Athena must have been worried all night because of what he had told her.
He felt guilty.
"Then just sleep for another half hour..."
"Okay, I'll stay with you."
Byron kissed Athena's forehead.
Athena's head was dizzy, but she couldn't fall asleep.
After barely resting for a while, she went to wash up and change into some fresh clothes.
Last night, she specifically told Jaxson that there was no need to wait for her and Byron to go downstairs in the morning.
After the children had breakfast, they were sent directly to school.
Therefore, when Athena and Byron went downstairs, the two kids had already gone to school.
Mia left a sketch in the dining room.
The painting showed Daddy Pig and Mummy Pig sleeping in.
"Your daughter is making fun of us." Athena laughed and handed the painting to Byron.
Byron took it, read it, and carefully packed it away.
Athena thought to herself,
"Regardless of whether Byron inherited any mental illness from Larry, Byron and Larry are essentially different.
Larry was desperate at that time. His mother was strict and demanding, and his beloved died tragically. He was lonely, and no one could save him.
But Byron is different.
He has a family, me and children."
