"She sounds weird!" Anton exclaimed in disbelief after hearing the loud beeping tone on the line. "This was the first time that she called me by my name." He sounds genuinely suspicious about his sibling's unnatural interrogation. He had grown to Athena's weird temper but she never showed such behavior like this. She was speaking to him similar to a stranger and not his little sister. Somehow, he felt guilty for not paying so much attention to her and now she turned out like this while their parents were gone to another country. They had instructed him to watch over his sister but he seems to have neglected their words due to his busy schedule. He felt utterly guilty for that!Terrence gulped his liquor in one go before he forced himself to talk. "Let's have a bet." He proposed. Judging from Athena's reaction when she heard him chiming into their conversation, he was certain that she had broken her promise. She took those pills again and this time, she succeeded in forgetting him. H

Ding!Athena had just arrived at Monroe's ancestral home when Terrence sent her an address. She opened the message and read through the content as she stepped down from the limo. She had her eyes glued on her screen the whole time until she reached the foyer."I'll see you at 345 N Lemon St. Ocean Breeze Villa in an hour." His message was demanding.She realized that the location he sent was one of their conjoined properties where they stayed together just a week ago before everything turned out of control according to what she had written on her ledger . She didn't want to step into that place again as it only brought endless turmoil in her mind thus she typed and sent. "I can't.""Why not?" He replied."Send me another location." She demanded, refusing to answer his question."This is the only place I know where we could talk in peace." He replied shortly.Athena's fingers trembled in irritation as she typed another message to counter on him. "Should I choose a good place for us to

Terrence paused on his movements and stared at her. Somehow, deep within, he felt relieved after hearing her words as he himself couldn't actually imagine if their divorce would take place… He had plenty of thoughts swirling inside his head and it was all about her… Whatever he was planning behind her back, it was also dedicated to her… Everything has gone clearer now and he realized his mistakes. Hence, he wanted to make it up to her by doing something big… A huge surprise for her…He sighed deeply as he seated on the bedside closer to her. "Perhaps we can reach an agreement rather than getting a divorce… what do you think?" He proposed more similarly like a businessman rather than a husband talking to his wife...Athena blinked her eyes and stared back at him. Their gazes locked within a few seconds before she opened her mouth to speak. "I seemed to sense something odd…" she mumbled, sounding rather suspicious. Her eyes never left his face as she went on, "... aren't you supposed t

Athena was stunned at Terrence's sudden outburst over the phone. She didn't know why he said such words but somehow her insides felt uncomfortable hearing them. It stirred something forming into odd knots that seemed twisting her gut for unknown reason. Just what had she done to earn his emotional turmoil in such an early morning? She was really confused to death thus she remained silent, listening to his accusing remarks."I know what you think. That I deserve all of these!" He continued to babble. "Yeah, I definitely deserve this treatment from you!" She shut her eyes and inhaled sharply, suppressing the urge to nag at him because it would only add fuel to his anger. She remained silent on the other end until he felt satisfied, berating her."Why aren't you saying anything? Talk to me, Athena." He demanded haughtily."Are you done?" Was her cold and short inquiry."I'm not. You have to see me right now." He demanded."Mr. Adams, what's wrong with you? Have you eaten something wrong

The entire Wilson family turned speechless and dumbfounded. Their mouths gaped in shock and astonishment. At that moment everything seemed to freeze. The surroundings were eerily silent.Terrence remained silent, displaying a nonchalant expression on his face as he watched his wife's little astounding scene. Her entire appearance today brought him an immense amount of desire seeing her creamy shoulder overlapping her red off shoulder dress. His hands were itching to grab and take her out of the room to tear off her clothes that covered his crazy possession.Deep down, he was satisfied with those people's priceless reaction, especially Hannah and his stepbrother, Mike Wilson. The woman sitting beside him also looked suspicious as she kept fidgeting anxiously. One could suspect that she might have been pricked with invisible pins and needles. Her stance showcased a terrified look according to her body language and reaction since she saw Athena entering the private room. He had been eye
