Chapter 1556 Fool

"You're so stern. Mia not did the whole hand-slapping thing," Byron said, hesitating for a split second. Then with a mischievous demeanor, he moved closer to Athena, gently kissed her earlobe, and murmured with a grin, "However, I do enjoy it when Athena disciplines me like that."

Caught off guard, Athena was a bit flustered and went speechless.

She pondered, "I was just teaching him to write. Why did he suddenly start flirting out of the blue?"

While Athena tried to appear unfazed, her swiftly blushing ears gave her away.

"How about we stop writing and head back to the room?" Byron suggested, wrapping his larger hand around Athena's.

Athena glanced at him and seriously retorted, "We can't. We're not leaving until you get it right!"

Byron then wasted no time, quickly grabbing the pen and scribbling his name down.

Athena, witnessing this, was rendered speechless.

She thought, "Is he playing the fool with me?"

"Let's go!" She said.

Byron had become somewhat obsessed with playing little games with Athena these past few days.

Athena was both amused and exasperated.

She followed as he pulled her toward the elevator.

It had been a chaotic day, ending in a whirl of passionate confusion and ridiculous antics.

The main bedroom was dimly lit, with clothes scattered and piled everywhere.

Utterly exhausted, Athena nestled in Byron's arms.

"I have to go to the company tomorrow," Athena murmured, her eyes closed. "Do you want to come with me?"

Byron shook his head. "I'll pass for now. If word gets out about my amnesia, I'm afraid it might cause more trouble for you." Athena then lightly stroked his waist in reassurance. "Don't worry about it. If you want to go, just go. Nothing else matters." Noticing Athena's exhaustion but still trying to comfort him made Byron's heart melt.

Unable to resist, he leaned down and gave her several tender kisses. "Sweetie, sleep first. We can discuss this later," he whispered. "Okay," Athena murmured in an exhausted tone.

She nuzzled against his chest and quickly drifted off to sleep.

The following morning came quickly.

While Athena was still sleeping, Rose had already come over, bringing along the team to design the rehabilitation room for Byron.

Not wanting to disturb her peaceful slumber, Byron let her sleep in and went downstairs alone.

When Athena finally got up and made her way down, the team had already finished their measurements and left.

"Going to the office?" Rose asked, handing a warm glass of milk to Athena.

"Yes," Athena replied with a nod. "Several branch offices are reporting their progress today. I expect it'll be a full day."

"I suppose Byron isn't going then?" Rose asked, pouring hot milk for Byron as well. "Mia has a rehearsal for her cultural event today. Why don't you come with me and cheer her on?"

After hearing her, Byron instinctively glanced at Athena.

"What are you looking at her for?" Rose questioned, somewhat baffled.

Athena couldn't help but chuckle, "I'm the head of the house. Of course, he had to go by me first."

She then directed her gaze to Byron and said, "Go ahead."

She leaned closer to Byron, teasingly whispering, "Keep an eye out. See if she's secretly dating a little boyfriend behind our backs."

Byron remained silent and didn't respond, his face showing apparent frustration.

"Secret talks this early?" Rose questioned, shaking her head with an exaggerated cringe. "This old lady will get out of your way now. I'll go find my precious great-grandson and great-granddaughter!" After saying her piece, Rose left the dining room straight away.

Despite her words of disdain, the wrinkles on her face showed her happiness as she departed.
