Chapter 1665 Innocence And Evil

Chapter 1665 Innocence and Evil

"What!" Felix almost jumped up from the sofa. "How is that possible? I

saw her fall with my own eyes..."

"She might have just been unconscious. In any case, she's awake now.

Don't doubt it, I'm not just hearing rumors, I heard her voice with my

own ears." Luther's eyes changed. "After what you just said, I'm even

more suspicious. Vicki must know about it too. Her recent abnormal

behavior is probably related to Athena.”

Felix's face turned pale. "Athena, she... Oh my god, this witch, she's

not dead after all. What does she want to do?"

He looked at Luther. "What can I do?"

Luther pointed to the bottles scattered on the floor. "First, pull yourself

together and stop drinking. Don't forget the background of the

Saunders family and what they used to do. Secondly, communicate

with Vicki and ask her what exactly she's involved in."

"Oh, I see.” Felix stood up, and his eyes cleared up.

In fact, he had a high alcohol tolerance and couldn't really get drunk.

He was just venting his emotions.

Athena's appearance was definitely not simple. He didn't know what

her true intentions were. Vicki's recent avoidance of him was probably

related to this matter. Thinking about it, his mood improved significantly.

Seeing Felix finally pull himself together, Luther felt relieved.

“I'll leave now. The information network of the Saunders family, both

legitimate and illegitimate, is extraordinary. Look into it and let me know

if there's any news."

"Don't worry, I'll check right away." Felix's eyes turned sharp. "The old

accounts from ten years ago didn't end, huh? What are you planning to

do?"

"I'l meet her first, and then we'll see.” Luther raised his hand and

straightened his sleeve.

"She's too dangerous. Damn it, there was no other physical evidence

back then. With just our words, no one would believe us." Felix was

filled with frustration. "I almost got deceived by her too. Be careful.”

Luther patted Felix's shoulder. "I know."

He paused for a moment. "Don't be too impatient about Vicki. She's

loyal, as long as you don't betray her, she won't betray you."

Felix's handsome face darkened, and he sighed.

It was true that she hadn't betrayed him. When they were together, she

never had any involvement with other men. She even promised to have

a child with him. But those were not what he wanted.

She refused to marry, she didn't want any status. But he wanted

recognition!

Luther continued, “It seems like you still don't know much about her

past even though you're together.”

"I asked her, but she didn't say anything." Felix helplessly said. "What

can I do?"

Luther narrowed his eyes. "Maybe the time hasn't come yet. I have a

feeling that everything will be revealed this time."

"Okay. I'll go find out right away." Felix nodded.

Luther looked at his watch. "I should go back. Let's stay in touch.”

After saying that, he turned and left.

The Ballard family.

Late at night, there were two rows of black-clad men standing in front of

the door, standing neatly on both sides. They respectfully lowered their

heads.

A stretched limousine stopped on the lawn in front of the Ballard

family's door. The back door opened, and Yan Ling pushed a

wheelchair down. Athena sat upright in the wheelchair.

As they passed the entrance, the black-clad men respectfully greeted in

unison, "Good evening, Miss. Welcome back home, Miss."

Under the dark night, the crescent moon was like a hook, casting a faint

cold light and shadows.

Athena entered the main hall of the Ballard family in the wheelchair.

Christian stood in the center of the hall, wearing a black suit that made

him appear incredibly solemn.

Vicki wore a floor-length navy blue dress and stood beside Christian,

her tall figure not inferior to his.

Christian looked at Athena, who was now wearing makeup. Her pitch-

black, clear eyes, slender eyebrows, rosy cheeks, and cherry pink lips,

along with her loose black-based pink cherry blossom kimono and a

solid-colored cashmere shawl draped over her shoulders, gave her a

fluctuating temperament between innocence and evil.

Heavenly when she smiles, hellish when she doesn't.

No description could be more appropriate for her.

Although Athena's wounds hadn't completely healed, they were

covered by her heavy clothes, so no one could see them. She had

carefully applied makeup to hide her pale complexion.

After more than ten years, she set foot in the Ballard family once again,

feeling a complex mix of emotions.

Christian looked at Athena intently, his eyes full of familiarity but also

tinged with a hint of unfamiliarity. Froma young age, he had been

extremely protective of her, going beyond the boundaries of sibling

love.

But now, he realized that he didn't truly understand her.

His gaze was filled with confusion as he asked, "When did you actually

wake up? Why did you deceive me? You disappeared from Manderson

Hospital, where have you been all this time? What have you been up

to?"

Athena curled her lips, a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

“Brother, you're asking me so many questions. Which one should I

answer?"

Christian couldn't help but clench his fists in anger. "Answer them one

by one. You were unconscious for ten years, and I've been worried for

a whole decade. And in the end, you lied to me, Athena, what exactly

do you want to do?"

Vicki also watched Athena at this moment.

She felt that Athena was different from the last time they met. There

was a stronger sense of hostility in her eyes and a more gloomy

expression.

Suddenly, Athena stood up from the wheelchair and took a few steps

forward.

Everyone around was shocked, their mouths agape.

Christian's anger grew, and his lips trembled. "So your legs have been

fine for a long time. How many more things have you been lying to me

about?"

Athena sneered, her expression twisted. "In the end, we don't even

share the same blood. What right do you have to question me?"

Christian's lips quivered with anger.

But more than anger, he felt heartbroken. He didn't have the right? In

his impression, she had always been gentle and spoke softly, with a

sweet smile like a flower. She had never been as terrifying and sinister

as she was now.

Either she had changed, or everything before was a lie.

"My dear brother, you should know best what I want. I've been lying in

bed for a whole ten years! Ten years! The person I loved has even had

a child! How can I swallow this anger?" Athena's expression turned

even colder.

Christian's narrow eyes squinted. "Precisely because it's been ten

years! You've finally woken up. Shouldn't you let go of the past and

start anew? Shouldn't I...?"

He didn't finish his sentence. Shouldn't he have treated her well?

Did she still insist on clinging to the past?

"Why should I let go? Why should I let that bitch, Joyce, have Luther? I

will never let her get away with it!" Athena almost roared.

Christian couldn't believe what he was hearing as he stared at Athena.

"What do you mean, brother? Are you protecting that bitch too? You

saved her, and now you even like her??"
