They continued chatting about the At and robots they'd seen their commation Bowing effortlessly as they made

anxiety grow
Seeing Jaden and Athena leave together, she immediately followed them in her car
She assumed Jaden was heading back to Viento Court but was shed when she saw him pull into Mid-Level
Mountain Garden
as his car disappeared into the complex
Shocked, she thought, Jaden's living with that girl now? How edhe fall so far? Isn't this worse than what | did? No.
| can't think like that about Jaden
She shook her head. People change, but Jaden wouldn't. | have to believe in him. He might just be there for
something, and he'll cout soon.
So, she parked under a tree near the entrance of the complex waiting for Jaden to cout.
Half an hour went by.

An hour passed.
Two hours later, Jaden still hadn't shown up, and neither had the car.
As the night deepened, Linda's heart felt like it was sinking, much like a grand ship slowly descending into the
sea, unable to
surface
Jaden, spending the night at that woman's place! He's not mine anymore, she thought. She drove away, tears
streaming down her face.
Back at the Donovan family villa, dinner had ended, and everyone was sprawled on the couch, watching TV.
Athena was recounting their afternoon at the robotics exhibition with a playful tone. Jaden seemed completely
smitten with those robots. He looked like he wanted to run off with them"
Arthur, chomping on ribs, said, "Jaden's always been into robots. He wanted to study Al bar ended up going into

Athena
was intrigued. Over the past few days, she'd noticed how sharp and capable Jaden was. With his brains and
drive, it seemed like he could succeed at anything. So, why did he give up his passion she wondered Of course,
she didn't ask him directly.
Jaden responded, "It's not really a pity. If | had chosen Al at a different university, things might have turned out
differently. But I'm doing well now. My choices back then didn't go against what | truly wanted" Sun, Oct 13 w

He smiled and added, "Life is like the moon and tiles- sometimes it's about balancing gains and losses. A little
regret isn't such a bad thing."
The adults nodded in agreement, while the younger ones seemed indifferent.
Athena was really enjoying this new routine of curling up with the family, watching TV, and chatting together. But
she couldn't deny that she was incredibly busy.
Daniel was at it again, pestering Athena with a message laced with mock frustration. The comments section blew

Unfortunately, this clever reader wasn't well-known before, so their comments got buried and went unnoticed
until now.
Athena barely pat said. "Tm going to

Everyone sighed in admiration. "As expected of a genius. Not only is she smarter than the rest of us, but she
works harder
Back in her room, Athena wrote and posted a straightforward chapter of over three thousand words.
She portrayed the three murderers as rivals, suitors, and an obsessed fan of the victim, who were driven to
jealousy by the victim's engagement to a wealthy heir. Consumed by envy, they decided to take her life. The
writing was blunt and lacked any literary or artistic quality it read like a dry account.
But Athena didn't mind..
She posted it and went to bed.
The next morning, she woke up to find everyone gone except for Jaden, who was in the backyard watering the
garden in a tank top and jeans, holding a hose. She asked, "Jaden, aren't you going out today?"
Jaden replied, "I bought sflower seedlings yesterday and just planted them."
Athena thought for a moment and suggested, "Jaden, | have something important to discuss with you. How
about we go out for breakfast and chat while we eat?" Jaden, who enjoyed their conversations, quickly rinsed his
hands with the hose, turned off the faucet, and agreed, "Sure, let's
go.
Athena drove Jaden out.
Meanwhile, Linda had been waiting in her BMW at the West Care of Mid-Level Mountain Garden for a whole hour.
She finally saw the noticeably larger SUV belonging to Athena appear Peering through the dark-tinted windows,
she could faintly make out two figures inside: a woman driving and a man in the passenger seat. Her instinct told
her these were Jaden and Athens 13:17 Sun, Oct 13 Chapter 134
She was shaken, and tears began to roll down her face.
But she clenched her teeth, holding back from making a scene, and followed them discreetly.
A few minutes later, the SUV parked outside a popular breakfast spot.
She watched as Jaden and Athena walked in together, chatting and laughing, appearing very close.

Athena nodded, "What was Zilvia's personality like? Did her personality change significantly?"
