Chapter 175 I Want Athena Dead

Heather and Byron's wedding date had been set.

The 18th of next month was a good day, especially for weddings.

Athena was tense all night. But after Byron had held her for a while, she fell into a deep sleep.

Byron looked down at the bruises and swellings on her cheeks and neck.

All he felt was heartbroken.

Heather was asleep when the bodyguard arrived at her manor with Erik's tongue.

"Byron has something for me?"

Heather was a little puzzled.

She had been cranky for the last two days, knowing that the gift Rose spent so much on was probably given to Athena.

At this moment, the gift from Byron immediately dispelled most of the haze in her heart.

"Yes, Miss Ross." The bodyguard said with a cold face and a particularly blunt tone.

Then he turned around and handed a rough cardboard box to Heather.

Heather hadn't seen what was inside yet, but the smell of blood was overwhelming.

The quality of the cardboard box was poor, and some blood was faintly oozing from inside. Heather frowned.

Then...

"Ah!"

Heather knocked over the cardboard box, and the bloody tongue rolled down on the expensive velvet carpet at her door.

"What do you mean? Are you crazy?" Heather roared.

The bodyguard stood there and said, "Miss Ross, this is Mr. Lawson's tongue."

Heather froze for a moment as if struck by lightning.

"What did you say?"

"Looks like someone had Mr. Lawson kidnap Miss Newton and almost get her killed." The bodyguard said succinctly.

But he looked as if he knew for sure it was Heather who had told Erik to kidnap Athena.

Heather was shocked.

But she really didn't know about it.

The guy she sent to hire the killer on the black market hadn't returned yet!

Erik...

"I really don't know about this!" Heather's face was pale as if she was about to faint at any moment. "How is Miss Newton? Is she still alive?"

It would be nice if she were killed by Erik.

Otherwise, wouldn't this idiot Erik fall into Athena's hands for nothing?

"Of course!" The bodyguard replied.

"What about Erik?"

His tongue was cut off, then how was he?

"He was still alive when I left." The bodyguard replied, "Mr. Crawford said if you want Erik back, go directly to him tomorrow."

With that said, the bodyguard left.

Heather hurried forward, avoiding the tongue. "It really has nothing to do with me!"

"That's out of my control."

The bodyguard dropped those words and left without looking back.

For some reason, he always had a hunch that Heather would not be able to marry into the Crawford family.

After the bodyguard left, Heather stood where she was.

Behind her, Jones stepped forward with a face full of anger. "Byron is really crazy! Does he really think the Crawford family is great? Miss Ross, if it weren't for your liking for him, he wouldn't be eligible to marry you at all! Everyone knows Erik is an illegitimate son of the Ross family. How dare Byron cut off his tongue for an unchaste woman!"

"Idiot!"

Heather kicked the tongue hard.

"Miss Ross!" Jones had never seen Heather lose such a temper.

"Since he chose to take action, why not make it clean! Why did Byron find out!" Heather grabbed her hair violently. Jones stood aside, worried.

Heather clenched her fists tightly and looked at Jones. "Add more money! I want Athena dead before I get married!"
