My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup

Chapter 172 A Dead End II

"Ah!" There was another scream.

At this time, the knocking on the door outside had turned into a banging on the door.

Athena also heard a rumbling sound in a trance.

But she had no time to think about what was that and kept whipping.

In the meantime, she moved to the window. It was only a matter of time before someone from the outside broke through the door.

But she would rather die than fall into Erik's hands!

"Bitch!" Erik was utterly furious after being poked blind and whipped several times.

He was much taller and more muscular than Athena.

So he seized the opportunity, grabbed the whip, and pulled it hard.

Athena fell forward unsteadily.

"Snapped!"

She was slapped so hard that the blood from his hand was on her face.

Her ears buzzed continuously instantly, and the person in front of her appeared as a phantom.

The next second, Erik threw himself on her.

He was now so angry that he was completely free of that obscene thought.

His big hand tightly grabbed Athena's neck.

"Vile bitch! I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"

At first, Athena could struggle.

But Erik was too strong, and gradually, she lost her strength and couldn't breathe at all.

Soon Athena's consciousness was fading.

At the last moment, the door was pushed open.

Athena, who was unconscious, saw many people rushing in.

It might be a good thing that she was going to be strangled.

Athena thought so.

Would Byron find her and bury her when she died?

Would there be an autopsy?

Would he know she was having his child?

Presumably, because she was dying, Athena suddenly felt that she should have told Byron about her pregnancy. After all, Byron had previously expressed his willingness to keep the baby. If she had told him, even if her baby would be taken from her and become someone else's, at least it would live.

Athena was full of regret.

And then she slowly closed her eyes.

But suddenly, Erik, who was pressing her down, was pushed away.

"Athena!"

A familiar voice came from far away.

Byron...

Was he coming to bury her?

Athena thought so.

Then she lost consciousness completely.

Erik's people were very meticulous.

At first, Byron had no clue. But there were cars in and out of the care home around the time Athena disappeared.

It took him a while to spot the suspicious man pushing a suitcase away from an abandoned passageway.

After locating the suspect, he saw several suspicious vehicles heading in different directions on an electronic monitor.

Then Byron realized the other was not afraid of him finding Athena but was stalling for time.

The thought that something terrible might happen to Athena in the meantime drove Byron mad.

With a lot of effort, Byron finally locked down Erik's suburban mansion.

He called Erik.

But Erik's phone was off.

Byron immediately dispatched a helicopter and arrived within half an hour.

And he saw Erik strangling Athena the instant he broke the door open.

Byron went crazy. He immediately pulled Erik away.

Athena was covered in blood, especially on her neck.

At that moment, Byron felt like the sky was falling.

He called Athena's name and immediately gave her artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

He did it repeatedly.

There was so much noise around him, but he couldn't hear anything.

All his attention was on Athena.

Athena was in chaos.

She walked aimlessly forward.

She was tired and wanted to go to her destination quickly to rest.

Just as she was about to step into her destination, a cry came from behind her.

"Mommy!"
