Chapter 35 Miss You
The intensive care unit was spacious.
And there was even a sofa by the window.
Sitting on the sofa, Byron dealt with some things he didn’t deal
with during the day.
It was raining outside.
Lola left not long after Byron came.
And Jones also went outside tactfully.
So, there were only Byron and Heather in the ward.
“Byron, you can go home if you feel bored. I’m good,” Heather said thoughtfully.
“It’s okay. Take some rest,” Byron said without raising his head.
After finishing his work, Byron somehow clicked on Athena’s WhatsApp.
In the past, Athena would text Byron to check if he was all right every time he went to take a flight
alone.
But not this time.
Byron felt a little sour in his heart.
And then he checked Athena’s posts.
The background of Athena’s homepage was a fluffy kitten.
Byron had never seen it.
He didn’t know when she kept a kitten.
Byron browsed down and found Athena’s latest post was three hours ago.
She was in Salin City. In the picture, a cat was rolling in the fallen leaves on the street full of the feeling
of autumn.
The caption was: [A happy kitten.]
Below the post, everyone in the Office of the President replied.
[Love you, Miss Newton. I miss you so much.]
Athena’s replied: [Love you too.]
Byron was speechless.
“Why don’t you post your selfie?”
Athena replied: [Sent it to you.]
Byron’s expression darkened.
Athena had never sent him a selfie.
Byron went on browsing the comment area.
Someone commented: [Hope I can be Miss Newton’s kitten in my next life!]
Athena replied to him with a kitten emoji.
After reading all those, Byron liked this picture.
And then he browsed the other picture Athena posted.
Athena didn’t post much.
The next one was from three months ago.
And it was a small cake.
The caption was: [One year older.]
Byron frowned subconsciously.
was
ds in August.
But he didn’t remember the exact date.
Every year, he just gave her a check and asked her to buy something she liked for herself,
Byron couldn’t tell whether it was because the cake was
too small and shabby or something else, he was somehow agitated.
And the following post was from the end of April.
There were nine pictures.

hands that were holding, and an old photo.
In the picture of the hands, one looked aged, and the other looked young. They should belong to Romy
and Athena.
Two aged people and a woman who looked similar to Athena were in the old photo.
And there was also a little girl with an adorable smile. She was wearing a floral skirt and two pigtails.
This old photo should be a family photo.
And the caption was: [Miss you.]
Byron frowned.
At this time of the year… Athena should be going home to accompany Romy.
So, he thought Athena was sad for her leaving Romy and returning to Girard City.
Byron clicked on the comment area.
Surprisingly, everyone in the Office of the President commented and liked Athena’s posts every time,
but not this
one.
There was no comment at all.
Just when Byron seemed to think of something, Heather suddenly snorted softly.
Byron looked up and found Heather getting up from the hospital bed.
“What’s wrong?”
Byron put away his phone and walked over with his eyebrows frowning.
Heather was a little at a loss.
“Get on the bed. I’ll get you the water.” Byron walked to the water machine and poured Heather a glass
of water.
Heather just stood by the bed and didn’t get on it.
After taking the glass, she hesitated momentarily and said, “Byron, can you tell me something about
Miss Newton?”
