She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 

A reporter Anabel hired said, Madalyn Acevedo, 24 years old, 2 from Ebadena

She graduated two years ago from Ebadena University and is an intern lawyer at Doyle Law Firm, earning over 1,600 dollars a month, plus an extra month’s salary at yearend and commission for completed cases. 

The firm is quite mediocre, with only two practicing lawyers and fewer than ten employees total. They don’t get much business, operating on slim profits, mostly handling divorce cases, Infidelity investigations, and lost pet searches

Her parents have passed away, and there are no other relatives. So far, we haven’t found out how she met Matthew

She currently lives in Room 1200, Skyline Apartment, valued at around 2 million dollars. It was originally in Matthew’s name but was transferred to hers last month

Additionally, she owns a threebedroom apartinent in Starry Community worth over 2 million dollars, drives a Volkswagen Phaeton, and has savings exceeding 200 thousand dollars. All these assets can be traced back to Matthew’s confidants.” 

Anabel was initially surprised. They say Matthew isn’t interested in women, yet he’s been secretly keeping one and didn’t let a whisper slip out?” 

Then she sneered, deep disappointme fools,” 

her eyes. Men really are all the same. Women who treat them like treasures are 

She grabbed the file and waved it dismissively; her tone dripping with disdain. Focus on this woman. Whenever Matthew is out of Kitmore City, set up an appointment with her. I’ll speak with her personally” 

Dealing with Matthew himself was tricky, especially since he was the president of the Graham Group, which could lead to

lot of trouble

However, handling Matthew’s girlfriend to make her retreat or even disappear was much simpler. Unless she was completely clueless

Anabel thought, But surely Mathew won’t fall for a woman like that, right?” 

The reporter on the video call respectfully replied, Yes, I’ll inform you as soon as I have any updates.” 

Meanwhile, news of Matthew spending the night at his girlfriend’s place trended online, exploding in popularity

Netizens were eagerly gossiping and speculating 

Matthew has cleared the news. He shows them no respect, brazenly flaunting his affair. He’s rebellious and arrogant. I’m genuinely worried he might lose his position.” 

Mr. Graham should be fine, but no one knows what might happen to his woman.” 

It is more exciting than drama! I hope the young man can withstand the pressure from the elders 

I want to know everything about this beauty!” 

Isn’t there anyone online who can dig up info on Mr. Graham’s girlfriend yet?” 

Athena was driving her Miracle 3.0, listening to the gossip while heading to Vlento Court to pick up Zilvia’s things

Though Matthew hadn’t explained, she understood that Matthew’s girlfriendwasn’t a real girlfriend but a companion he used to stand against the Graham and Powell families

Moreover, she had a vague feeling that Matthew might be using this girlfriendto protect her

Chapter 110 

Ugh, this feels complicated, she muttered. Both the Graham family and the Powell family are typical wealthy families. I hope he can handle it.” 

Athena thought, What if he can’t hold up or got hurt? Alas, I will definitely have to help him 

By noon, she arrived at the old house, carrying a tote bag upstairs

Just then, Linda, who arrived about ten minutes later at Viento Court, saw her car and was shocked to the point that she looked pale

Linda thought. She is here too? Did the Donovan family actually invite her over? Their relationship has progressed to the point where they spent the night together and met each other’s families

Linda was well aware of how much Jaden valued family

If Jaden didn’t consider someone family, he would never bring them home

In an instant, Linda felt a pang in her heart, and tears streamed down her face

She thought sadly, Jaden, I was wrong. But woke up less than three years ago. How could you fall for another woman so quickly? No matter where I am, my heart still belongs to you. How could you betray our feelings? I refuse to accept this!” 

Linda pounded the steering wheel like a mad woman, crying. Ive only loved you in my life. I won’t let anyone else have you! This time, no matter how many obstacles there are or what methods I have to use, I’ll get you back!” 

She cried intermittently for nearly half an hour before finally tiring herself out

Wiping her tears with a tissue, Linda reapplied her makeup

Just as she finished, she saw Athena coming down with a bulging tote bag, and a sudden urge to run her over flashed through Linda’s mind.. 

But she controlled herself

However, the next shocking thing happened

Wesley was standing on the balcony, waving to Athena below, saying, Athena, drive slowly on your way back. Don’t rush.Okay. Athena looked up and waved back. Dad, you still have to work this afternoon. Take a quick nap. I’m leaving nowLinda thought, Dad? Athena called Wesley Dad? Could it be that Jaden is going to marry Athena?” 

The mere thought of it made Linda’s heart race

In a panic, she slammed on the gas, chasing after Athena

As soon as Athena stepped outside, she noticed Linda’s eyecatching dark green BMW and couldn’t help but frown, thinking, What is she up to

Since the day before yesterday, Linda had been following Athena, and today she even showed up at the Donovan family, which made Athena feel uneasy

She usually wouldn’t care about such trivial matters. After all, she was driving a Miracle 8.0. If Linda had the guts, she could crash into Atheria and see how sturdy her car really was

But after discovering that Linda had found Vlento Court, Athena felt annoyed

Athena thought. Linda wasn’t trying to harass my family, was she? That won’t do
