It was half past six.
Athena approached the cruise restaurant's top floor in high heels. She was wearing a floral dress. She
immediately saw Matthew standing against the railing with his hack facing her. He was dressed in a well-fitting
black suit. He had a noble temperament and an elegant bearing. His long legs were especially eye-catching. His
charm was astounding. Athena felt like drawing him.
Matthew seemed to be telepathic. As soon as she appeared, he turned around. He had a faint smile.

Louis was peeping at them from the side. He silently cheered Matthew on. He looked like he was about to cry.
Yet another physical contact.
Matthew allowed Athena to touch his head again.

said, "Your hair grows very fast. When your hair grows even longer, | will miss your shaved head.
Matthew smiled. "If you like, | can always shave my head and wear a wig when necessary."
Athena chuckled. "No need. You'll look good with longer hair too

The dishes were also served consecutively.
Matthew raised his glass. "Thank you for the crscene investigation report. It's useful. | know where to start

There was a pause before he continued, "I've already asked someone to trace all the purchase records, track
down all the buyers, and find out who's related to my sister or the Graham family." Athena nodded. "Based on
my experience and intuition, if the murderer is a woman, it might be related to relationship problems. then

accomplices.
That was why Athena liked to talk to Matthew.
There was a tacit understanding between them. There was no need to explain too much to the other party.
"Great minds think alike," Matthew said with admiration. He had the sthought.
Matthew said, "I suspect one person was responsible for finding and bribing the truck driver. Another person paid
for it. A third person installed explosives on the driver and the truck. Another person used a drone to capture the
car accident." He paused momentarily before saying, "Of course, there aren't necessarily four murderers, but
there should be more than
two.
Athena nodded and asked curiously, "With all these clues, could you narrow in on the suspects?"
Matthew turned the glass in his hand. His gaze was bottomless. There are many people with various motives. |

He shook his head before continuing. It's just that | can't think of a single female murderer linked to relationship
problems."
Athena blinked. "Why? If it involves romance, it should be easier to identify the suspect."
She then waved her hand. "Oh, it's alright if you don't say anything as it's your sister's privacy"
Matthew did not speak immediately. He passed Athena her favorite food before pouring more champagne for her.
His voice was low as he said, "There's no information forto hold back. The media has already exposed all my
sister's relationships." He said. "My sister was 20 years old when she broke up with the popular singer, Mavis
King, and married the heir of the top cruise company in the industry."
He sighed. "Mavis passed away three years later. My sister got a divorce using her husband's infidelity as an
excuse. She swore she would never marry again. She successfully divorced him and devoted herself
wholeheartedly to her work." Matthew looked | at her. "You were still young then, so you probably wouldn't have
paid attention to such entertainment gossip."
"I have an impression of what happened, Athena recalled. "At that time, | idolized your sister. She was
astonishingly beautiful and capable. Despite being young, she managed such a big company so well."
She then pursed her lips. "At that time, like many people, | felt her ex-husband had poor taste in women. He
didn't know how to appreciate his wife, but he fell in love with a female celebrity who was a money-grubber and
had past scandals with wealthy men. She even ended up bearing a male child together with him." She shut up
abruptly. "I'm sorry. | said too much."
All these matters were Lucy's privacy. She should not say it in front of Matthew.
Matthew smiled. "I was the one who asked you to treat my sister and helpinvestigate the murderer. | should

Matthew felt that it was special. He knew Athena's secret and Athena knew his

The light in his eyes dimmed as if dark clouds were forming inside them. His blank eyes looked like the lights in

His gaze and low voice enthralled Athena. It was as if he had crossed the river of memories and was trapped in

Athena listened quietly and sighed in her heart.
Mavis's songs were timeless. Many singers still covered his songs His relationship with Lucy was still a hot topic

Everyone felt sympathetic towards the unfated lovers.
Mavis's sudden and untimely death at the height of his popularity was even more lamentable.

Matthew looked at Athena and asked, "Do you know why my mother left all her shares to my sister and not me?"
