Tyler was pretty sure Athena wouldn't show up, considering the Keller family wasn't really her own. That was Lindsay's family, not hers.
But Athena went anyway.
Tyler didn't stop her; he just told her to come back early.
When Athena arrived at the Keller family home, she found Grandma Edith lying in bed, the room filled with the scent of herbal remedies.
Through a nearby screen, she could see incense burning, likely some concoction from a natural healer.
She walked over slowly.
Grandma Edith's eyes lit up with excitement when she saw Athena.
"Athena, come here and let me have a look at you."
Grandma Edith hadn't been well lately. She’d had some health scares before, and now with the Keller family being under scrutiny, she looked even more worn out. Yet, when facing Athena, her expression was still warm and kind.
"Athena, have you lost weight? Haven't you been eating properly?"
Athena looked at the elderly woman, with so much she wanted to say, most of it filled with accusations. Like why had she allowed Marlon to use such ruthless methods? Why did they have to eliminate other members of the Keller family? And most importantly, why couldn't they even spare someone like Kerwin, who died thinking he was doing the right thing?
"Athena, why aren't you speaking? Did Marlon bully you? That boy's always been like that, don't take it to heart."
Athena took a deep breath, her voice calm and steady as she looked at Grandma Edith.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
