She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 36 As night fell, Athena returned to her apartment.

Freya sent her a message: [The pharmacist and neurologist have successfully seen the patient. They will conduct a comprehensive examination tonight and send you the first report tomorrow.) Athena replied simply: [Okay.1 According to the plan. Dr. Annie's team was set to arrive in the capital this afternoon and would then be secretly transported to Lucy's retreat by Louis.

Thinking of Lucy remin reminded Athena of Matthew. His meticulously sculpted face, flawless from every angle, lingered in her mind.. What could Matthew be doing right now?' she wondered.

Curious, she logged onto the inteand searched for updates on Matthew. Despite his reputation for being low- key and avoiding the spotlight, she quickly found a recent video of him "This afternoon, actress Luna Carter held a a yacht party at Moon Bay. Numerous high-profile guests arrived at the dock. Among the invited were...

Matthew arrived at at Moon Bay in an reclusive Matthew Graham, CEO of the Graham Group.

"The most surprising guest was the SUV, got out alone, and boarded the luxurious yacht with a bikini-clad beauty. The SUV then drove away. After Matthew boarded, the yacht left the dock "It was said that these parties require signing confidentiality agreements, with all phones collected, so that no one is able to take photos or videos. Therefore, what happens on the yacht remains unknown." Athena quickly understood. Matthew must have deliberately leaked his whereabouts to draw public and family attention. allowing Louis to secretly take Dr. Annie's team to see Lucy.

This showed just how deeply Matthew cared for his sister. Athena couldn't quite explain why, but she didn't want to see sadness, pain, or disappointment on Matthew's handsface. She found herself silently praying. Praying for Lucy's surgery to go smoothly for her to recover soon...

and Meanwhile, at Harmony Hospital, the old lady opened her eyes and kept calling out, "Athena, where is Athena... The nurse, who had secretly accepted a six-figure bribe from the Kennedy family, hesitated. Instead of calling Athena, she informed Micah, who was out having a late-night snack.

Micah rushed back to the hospital, calling Isaac on the way.

Isaac, upon receiving the news, went to fetch his children, urging them to cto the hospital.

Andrew, applying a face mask, was de Staying up late ruins my skin! It's too late, I'm not going." Gia, engrossed in her design work, didn't even look up. "I'm busy with my designs. I can't go." Isaac and Regina didn't dare to force them, so they headed to the hospital alone.

In the VIP room, after sending the nurse to rest, Micah discreetly dissolved a stimulant pill in warm water and gave it to the old lady.

He had obtained the pill from a doctor, claiming he needed it to stay awake during night shifts. While it was generally safe Chapter 36 for occasional use, it had severe side effects for someone in the old lady's condition.

After drinking the water, the old lady becmore alert and managed to speak a full sentence: "Athena, I want to see Athena. Please, call Athena...

please listen to me." Micah seized the opportunity to explain the Kennedy family's situation. "Athena is not your biological granddaughter. You have a pair of biological twin grandchildren, a grandson named Andrew and a granddaughter named Gia.." randma, the old lady becfurious, her voice hoarse with anger. "You're u're lying!" Micah sighed, Tm not lying." He produced a DNA test report showing that Athena was not Isaac and Regina's biological child. He then showed photos of Andrew and Gia on his phone. These are your biological grandchildren. They look just like Isaac and Regina..." The old lady closed her eyes and turned her head away. "They don't look like them at all! I want Athena. Call Athena now...

Micah, frustrated, continued, "Grandma, the Kennedy family is in trouble. is in trouble. We need your help. Ignoring whether she was listening or not, he explained the situation with Vission Group. "Only you can persuade Athena to spare the Kennedy family.

The old lady remained stubborn, like a child demanding candy. I want to see Athena. I want to see Athena...

.1 Micah was at his wit's end. "This is so troublesome. I don't even know if she understands...

Just then, his phone rang. It was Isaac. Isaac's voice was filled with frustration. "We're at the hospital, but visiting hours are over. We can't get into the inpatient ward." He rarely visited hospitals. Even when he did, there were always people to handle things for him. He only needed to wait for the results.

Athena had always taken care of his mother's hospitalization and treatment, so he had no idea that visiting hours ended at 10 PM.

10 Micah was dumbfounded. "What do we do now?" "Then what else can we do?" Isaac snapped. "You just have to convince my mom to plead with Athena on our behalf."

Micah, looking pained, replied, "I've said everything I could, but she won't listen. She keeps repeating that she wants to see Athena and insists Athena is her real granddaughter....

Hearing this, Regina grabbed the phone from her husband and yelled into it, "Just keep talking! Keep m brainwashing her il she remembers that Andrew and Gia are her real grandchildren and that Athena is an imposter who deceived us for eighteen years." "Got it?" she bristled. Micah, resigned, said, "Got it."

He hung up the phone and returned to the bedside, ready to continue his attempts at persuasion. But he found that the old Jady had already fallen asleep, drooling at the corner of her mouth. This brainwashing session was over before it even started. X
