Chapter 1893: Who Will Athena Target Next
"I have one more thing to remind you about. Although Seren is dead this time, I didn't expect that he
would have a connection with Athena. If Athena makes a move now, it may implicate you. Be
prepared," Joyce said seriously.
"Understood, I've been vigilant," said Vicki, absently rubbing her long fingers.
"If she dares to come, I'll make sure she doesn't leave alive," Vicki said, her expression indifferent.
Joyce remained grave, "Even so, Athena is unpredictable and ruthless. With Cloud gone, she's even
more dangerous. At least with Cloud, there were limits. Now, it's a precarious situation. I fear Athena
might seek help we cannot anticipate. We must be cautious."
"Based on your judgment, where do you think Athena will strike?" Felix inquired.
"I truly can't guess," Joyce shook her head.
"It doesn't matter, we'll face the challenge when it comes. I'm not afraid of her," Vicki said, nonchalant.
"Don't be careless. From what I know, it seems Rohomes has sent a new OGW leader. I still can't find
out who it is or their background or capabilities," Joyce cautioned.
"Who cares who it is? OGW is falling apart. I've heard many are joining Christian, and some have even
found Mr. Ball. Though they aren't top-tier, it signals the end of OGW. It's only a matter of time," added
Felix.
He pulled Vicki close, "Are you tired from standing for so long? Maybe you should rest in bed today, I
can take care of things for you."
"Really? I'm not that delicate," Vicki brushed off Felix's hand, "Just be cautious outside, don't meddle
with me."
"Felix,..." he hesitated.
He cared for his wife, but how did that become meddling?
"Enough, I don't need anyone's care," Vicki raised her hand, flipping her long hair, her manner
unyielding.
"Mr. Saunders really cares for you. Vicki, not to criticize, but you really need to take care of yourself like
a pregnant woman. I know your belly isn't big yet, so you might not feel it, but have the nauseous
feelings improved?" Joyce asked.
"You know, I haven't felt nauseous recently. It seems those people are what's bothering me, not my
pregnancy. I'm flat-bellied now, it doesn't bother me, and it hasn't affected anything. I often forget I'm
pregnant," Vicki said, glancing at Joyce's protruding belly, "Haven't seen you in a few days, why does
your belly seem much bigger?"
Joyce looked down, "Yes, the two little ones are growing fast. I feel like it's gotten a lot bigger too."
Vicki envied and reached out to touch, "That's more like it, being pregnant. I wonder when my little one
will move."
"The fetus is still small, don't rush it, it will grow slowly," Felix reassured Vicki.
Vicki gave Felix a look, "Of course I know."
"Joyce, I think you're the one who needs to be most careful. According to my judgment, Athena will
definitely target you. Your pregnancy, I'm afraid it won't be a secret, she will know. I've heard Darrin
went to Rohomes, you need more help around you. Do you need me to assist?" Vicki asked with
concern.novelbin
"No need, Luther has already sent more people to guard day and night," Joyce shook her head.
"I don't think Athena will target me, my presence is too big. She must know I have many guards around
me. It's too difficult for her to make a move. I've been unsettled these days, feeling like something is
about to happen," Joyce pondered.
"You're in the late stages of pregnancy, perhaps too sensitive. You need to rest more and worry less,"
Vicki patted Joyce's shoulder, "Leave anything to us. And Mr. Warner, he'll handle it all."
"Okay, let's hope so," Joyce's gaze fell on Vicki's hand resting on her shoulder.
A dazzling ring, with a unique shape, the gem shimmered with a golden light, as if it had a sharp eye.
"What a beautiful ring, what is this?" Joyce asked curiously.
"Oh, a cat's eye gemstone," Vicki explained.
"This is our wedding ring," Felix added quickly, flashing his own hand with the men's ring.
Joyce smiled contentedly, "Truly beautiful, suits Vicki's personality. Just like a tiger's eye, sharp and
bright. Mr. Saunders really has good taste."
"Of course, my best decision was choosing a wife," Felix boasted even more.
Vicki lightly elbowed him, "Show somedecency, will you?"
Startled by the sudden attack, Felix grunted and held his chest.
Vicki paused, "Did I hurt you? Did I hit your wound?"
"No," Felix shook his head, forcing a smile, "Darling, be gentler. I want to live longer and grow old with
you."
Vicki stared at Felix in disbelief.
Their tender exchange brought comfort to Joyce.
"Alright, I've taken care of everything that needed attention. Be careful, both of you, especially with the
people coming in and out of the house. Don't let anyone take advantage," Joyce advised.
"We know, don't worry. I have some matters to attend to back at home. I'll head back now, we'll keep in
touch. Call me if anything comes up," Vicki said, lightly patting Joyce's shoulder again, "Relax a bit,
we'll weather this storm together."
Joyce nodded.
Felix added, "Joyce, you need to be especially careful about Anderson. Athena often targets children.
That woman is despicable."
"I will," Joyce nodded, "You go on, take care."
Vicki left with a nod.
Felix quickly followed Vicki and waved to Joyce, "I'm off too, thank you for today."
"What's with the formalities?" Joyce smiled as she saw them off, before returning home alone.
Her belly was noticeably larger every day, with the twins, it was a whole different experience compared
to a single pregnancy. Standing was uncomfortable, and so was sitting for too long. She didn't want to
drive herself in case of an accident.
She made sure everything was secure on her end.
As she waited at a red light, she pondered deeply, steering wheel in hand.
Where would Athena strike next? She truly couldn't predict, couldn't fathom it.
But she had a strong feeling, a storm was coming, and it was coming soon.
