The Poor Billionaire's Revenge. Chapter 133
Athena walked into the house as if she had seen a ghost. Her eyes were already swollen from crying so hard in the cab. She opened the front door and went into the living room. Her mother was sitting, leg crossed, on the table, but when she saw Athena walk in with her shoulders drooping, she sprang up to her feet. In her mind, Sabastian had done something bad to her daughter. She rushed forward and held her by the arm."Athena, what is wrong? Why do you walk like you saw a ghost? She asked, but Athena didn't answer. She held her close to her and gave her a warm hug. Athena rested her head on her mother's shoulders and began to cry uncontrollably. “I don't know what it is that's making you this sad, but I am sorry, Athena; everything will be fine." She rubbed her back and spoke like a good mother should.She hugged her tight and squeezed her into her body while Athena kept weeping like a child.“He lied to me, mother?” Athena finally spoke the words as she sniffed and sulked.“Whom d

From the beginning, Maxwell knew there would be a problem the moment Athena found out about his identity. The guilt of lying to her this entire time lingered in his heart all night. He laid on his bed and thought about how to make her understand why he did what he did. Grandpa has set up multiple meetings for the week. It feels strange to Maxwell, but Uncle Zander has assured him that he will get used to all of it. Maxwell knows he would, but he is just overwhelmed by everything right now. Emerging as the new MD is something he never imagined would happen so soon.Maxwell laid in bed, tossing and rolling. The thought of losing Athena forever kept racing through his mind each time he tried to go to sleep. He managed to take it away. The rules Uncle Zander gave him to study were still lying on the table. He got up and turned on the light. As MD, he needs to know a few things about the casino and how it's been ruined. He has to learn a thing or two from people who have been in the busin

Maxwell arrived at the venue at about 8:30 a.m. As he alighted from the car, everyone looked at him, but he had no time to observe those staring at him. His finely tailored suit gave him the most beautiful fit on his body. Just as he was about to go into the building, a young man ran to him and introduced himself happily. The young man was only a few years younger than Maxwell and had the professionalism of a man who had been in the corporate world for decades.“Good morning, sir." The young man greeted Maxwell and made him to stop in his tracks. Maxwell examined him for a while before responding. “Good morning, young man, how are you?” He responded happily, but he wore no smile on his face. The young man was still very confident, despite how much Maxwell tried to make himself look tough, the young man was determined to have a steady gaze.“You must be the new MD, Mr. Maxwell Wilmore.”. He asked to clear his doubts.“Yes, that's me. Why?”. He wondered why the young man had come to h

Athena got out of the car, grabbing her bag alongside her while waiting for Uncle Duncan to come out before she finally locked the car. He got out and adjusted his suit, still surviving the building as he had done the first time they arrived. His shoulders squared like they were pillars holding his proud body together. “This is what it means to be rich and famous. This is wealth, pure wealth." Uncle Duncan said it excitedly as he smiled from ear to ear.“Get a grip on yourself, uncle; these people are very bougie and classy; we can't afford to downgrade ourselves.”.“I'm trying my best to calm Athena. The luxury is just too much for me to pipe low." He said it excitedly. She shook her head and began to walk into the building. The automatic door opened, and she was in the lobby leading to the reception. Athena has always been classy and beautiful. She had in her hand her Chanel bag, which was a perfect match with her black dress. She spotted a lady at the reception busy with her syst

Athena pushed herself through the opened door and hurried down the hallway. Duncan was already in front of her as she walked away in shame. A few staff members from the organization looked at her, and their boss ignored him despite the way he called her name."Athena, please listen to me." He said that the moment he caught up with her, She raised her eyes slowly to meet his eyes. His gaze was intent and genuine. He looked around for a while, and when he was sure everyone had left them in the hall, he spoke to her calmly.“May I have a word with you in my office, please?" He pleaded softly. She blinked and rolled her eyes away from his gaze.“I don’t want to talk to you, Maxwell. I made this clear the day I found out you deceived me. I don’t want to talk to you, and I don’t want to see you anywhere near me." She spoke the words with spite.Maxwell chuckled at her words. “Then why are you here if you don’t want to see me? You know I would be at the meeting, yet you showed up even thoug

Athena left Grandma's house looking like she had fought in a thought war. Her hair was rough and scattered, and her shoulders drooped. She had obeyed grandma's instructions; now all she needs is to sleep and forget about all that happened at Wilmore's tower. She pulled over and stepped out of the car, then banged on the door like she wanted to pick a fight with it. She checked the back seat and pulled out the files she gave at the meeting. She sighed as it fell to the ground, just a few inches away from her leg. She picked it up and went into the house. Her mother was not in the living room today, so she thanked her sister for it. She isn't in the mood to say anything to anyone right now. She was emotionally down, and mentally, she didn't think she was strong enough to have a chat with her mom. She surveyed the sitting room. The mini artificial aleovera plant stood on the side of the table instead of the usual spot in the center. She is fully aware it had to be her mom; she's been the

Wait! She called out to him and rushed forward to meet him.“I'm sorry”. She said she was looking downward. Maxwell looked at her and wondered if she had suddenly changed her mind.“Can we talk some other time? She asked, grabbing him by the arm. He looked at her hand on his thick arm and back at her face. He smiled and touched her cheek with the tip of his finger. “It's fine; I will come pick you up at 8 p.m. tomorrow.”.“Are you asking me out on a date?” She asked curiously and was a little shy.“Sort of. I don't know, but you need to dress nice like you always do; that's all,” he said to her. Veronica watched them with utmost disgust in her eyes. She couldn't believe Athena was falling for his cheap deceit. She rolled her eyes and got back to sit on the couch just the same way she was before Maxwell came.“Is that time fine for you? He seeks her consent as the gentle man that he is. Maxwell didn't grow up in a wealthy home, but he had the best home training any grandchild could g

Athena paused and looked at her mother. The words that came out of her mouth at this point are words that he never imagined her mother would say to her concerning Maxwell. Saba Bash has always been her choice. "Do you even mean those words, or do you just want to pull my legs?” Athena asked her as she paused by the door”.“You know what I am talking about, but I pray you don't chase him away,” she said. She had never heard her mom take sides with her on this one. I looked at her and hoped she was joking. But it turned out she was just joking about what she said, but dead serious. Just a moment ago, she displayed her rudeness towards him, and now she wants her to give him a chance. She shrugged her shoulders. “What changed, mom? What's with the sudden change? I thought you never liked him.”. Athea asked her mom, who was busy reading from a stylish English magazine. “I don't want you to miss this opportunity, Athena; it doesn't come twice,” she said to Athena with all seriousness,
