Byron knew nothing about the matter of Cheesy Sweet Potato Stacks.
After hearing this, he immediately looked at Athena.
Athena clenched her hand holding the sandwich.
"Oh, Mom, why are you talking about it?" Carol's daughter-in-law said with reproach. "Sorry."
"It's okay." Athena shook her head.
Carol was in a bad mood, so she went to rest.
Athena stared at the sandwich on the plate.
She never thought about this.
She didn't know that her death back then would cast such a shadow on someone else besides her relatives and friends.
"It's okay." Byron coaxed her gently.
Athena took another look at the place where Carol had left and then lowered her head to eat slowly.
"Even Carol is so sad.
What about Byron?
I never felt that Byron really loves me.
I always feel that he is just too possessive of me.
I am an object that has been used for a long time. He is not willing to throw me away, nor does he want me to be touched by others.
But...
What if Byron loves me?
Is the punishment I gave him back then too severe?" she thought.
Athena had never thought about these things.
She finished eating in silence.
Athena and Byron left the sandwich shop one after the other.
"You go upstairs first. It's time to get the flowers I ordered," Byron said.
Athena nodded. "Okay."
Byron thought for a while. Without caring about being outside, he hugged her and rubbed her head. "Don't be unhappy."
He was really not good at comforting others.
"I see," Athena responded.
Then the two separated.
After Athena went upstairs, she used her fingerprint to unlock the door.
When she came here last time, it was so chaotic that she didn't take a good look at this place.
