"Damn Luther, you put Athena through that and never reflected on it after all these years, and now you've actually put even Joyce
in a coma because of you.”
“Damn it, damn it! In this life, | will never let you go!" He gritted his teeth and slammed a few more punches towards the wall in
quick succession.
The walls in the hospital were made of diatomaceous earth, pitted and full of granules.
Instantly his knuckles bled, staining the wall red. He didn't even realize it yet, just lashing out in a rage.
"Stop it."
Vicki suddenly stepped forward and held Christian's wrist to stop him from hurting himself.
"I know you've had a deep love for Athena since she was a child, but six years have passed, and for good reason, you should move
on from the pain of the past.”
“Otherwise, you don't look like the Christian | know."
She took his hand, her long eyebrows furrowed, "You're bleeding. Just go bandage it up."
"No need."
Christian drew back his hand, unconcerned about his bleeding finger.
"Now that you're here, do you want to go see Athena ?" Vicki asked in a faint voice.
"It's not necessary. | feel ashamed to see her. | have failed to protect her.”
“She has been in a coma for six full years now.”
For these six years, Luther had got enough women around him and must have long forgotten her. But she, who had foolishly given
all for him, has now been lying here alone for six years."
Christian's dark eyes lit up with angry flames, "Everything is in vain. | am sitting on a billion dollar fortune, but | can't even do
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtanything to protect the people | want to protect.”
“That was true of Athena before, and it's true of Joyce now."
Speaking of his past, he leaned against the wall in a disheveled and powerless manner, as if he was immersed in the grief of the
past.
Vicki looked at him silently, without saying a word.
Athena Ballard, the daughter of the Ballard family, was born by her Japanese mother.
Athena looked very beautiful. She had black clear round eyes, curved leafy eyebrows, and a little red lips, like the delicate
witchcraft doll in cartoons.
Athena, of course, meant the daughter of God.
Athena, however, was actually the adopted daughter of the Ballard family.
There was no blood relation between her and Christian.
Vicki didn’t know what really happened between the three of them six years ago.
But she could see that Christian's feelings for Athena went beyond that of a normal brother for his sister.
Unfortunately, Athena had treated him as her brother.
And Athena's heart since childhood had always been with Luther.
After Athena's accident, she had been in a coma for six years. Christian thought about her all the tand would cto Mufron
to visit her from tto time.
Moreover, the Ballard Group and the R&S Group had been bitter rivals for several years.
Christian's opposition to Luther at every turn was also related to what happened six years ago.
Even Christian asked her to work at DeNox and get close to Felix for the sreason -- the truth about what happened six years
ago.
At one time, Luther was close friends with Christian and Felix when they were young.
Before Athena's accident, they were very close.
Only later, Christian and Luther parted ways.
Felix must have known what happened six years ago.
Vicki looked at Christian, who was slumped against the wall, and then at Joyce, who was lying asleep in her sickbed, and sighed
heavily.
Hopefully, Joyce would not be like Athena and wake up soon.
