Chapter 1416 Denial

Athena had rejected him many times in such a long time, and this was the most decisive denial.

The sea breeze blew on Athena's face, making her hair stick to her face.

She fixed her hair, folded her arms, and looked at the sea. "Six years ago, Byron almost had me cornered. I thought I hated him. But during many years of separation, I have met all kinds of men, but I didn't feel anything for them. Grandma thought that I had lost the ability to love anyone because I was hurt too deeply by Byron, and she wanted to find a psychiatrist for me."

Gabe frowned but didn't speak.

"I also thought that I no longer had the ability to fall in love with anyone, but after our reunion, I realized that I was wrong. It turns out I only love Byron, and this love has been mixed with my flesh and blood. I'm not a person of two minds. I can only love one, and that one can only be Byron." Athena looked at Gabe and asked, "Gabe, can you understand?"

Gabe's eyes turned red. "Yes," he answered.

Of course, he understood. It was the same as how he felt toward Athena.

Gabe just caught a glimpse of her on the cruise ship that day. But when he looked at other women in this world, he found them too ordinary.

Even if a fairy came to him, she couldn't make a wave in his heart.

"Go back tomorrow," Athena said gently, "You're such a nice person. You'll find the right woman."

Gabe looked into the distance, remaining silent.

Athena had said everything she should say. She had no control over others' personal choices, so she stopped talking.

After a while, Logan's drone flew over stealthily.

Athena looked at it and shook her head speechlessly.

Logan became more and more childish as he grew up. It might be because he had spent much time with Aiden and Mia.

After sunset, Athena took Gabe back.

When approaching the gathering place of the local people, they heard noises.

"Bertha, what do you mean? Didn't you agree to fight against the capitalists together? Why did you side with us in the morning and are going to leave now?"

"Seth even helped that female president this afternoon. Did she give you benefits, so you are going to leave us and run away?"

"It must be so!"

"No, you can't leave! Even if you want to go, you must tell us how much benefit the female president has given you!"

Athena turned her head to look at Dorian, who was following her not too far away.

Dorian nodded slightly and walked over there.

They had a dispute over 30 feet away from Seth's hotel.

A fat brown-skinned woman was surrounded by a group of local people, and a few of them were about to make a move.

"What else is there to say? The Coral Sea and the protection program of Precious Corals are just excuses. Their family is black-hearted. They don't want to protect our rights but to raise prices. After they get high compensation, they will leave us behind and sneak away!"

"No. We didn't ask for more money from them!" Bertha explained, "Alan is sick. We can't just wait like this on the island. We want to take him to see a doctor!"

"Bullshit!"

Seeing that some islanders brandished their fists angrily, Dorian strode forward and shouted, "What are you doing?"
