She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 194

Chapter 194
Louis pushed his glasses up and smiled knowingly. “Leave Alaric to me. I guarantee he will improve faster than a shooting
Matthew shot him a cold glare.
Louis immediately turned serious. “Soon, many companies will go to Endover Tennis Club and say they think very highly of Alaric and are interested in signing him as their future spokesperson. The only requirement is that the club must do its best to nurture and protect him so that he can become the top tennis player in the country*
Matthew nodded and threw his phone to Louis. I’m going to Kitmore City tonight.”
Matthew had separate phones for work and personal use. He threw his work phone to Louis so Louis could answer all work calls. If Louis could not handle it, he would look for him. As for Mathew’s personal phone, not many people knew about it.
Then, Matthew took a private elevator to the third floor of the basement and left in Harold’s SUV.
Louis had already asked around and discovered Athena was at school this afternoon. Matthew wanted to secretly rush over to Kitmore University and show up before Athena. Then, he would go to Donovan’s Restaurant with her.
He drove fast. At 5:30 in the evening, he appeared by the forest next to Serene Lake at Kitmore University, waiting for Athena to appear.
At the same time, on the other side of the forest, Joy came out of the library with a few books, wanting to take the shortcut to the canteen.
Suddenly, a man appeared from the trees and stood in front of her. He held a bouquet of purplish-red tulips and said affectionately, “Hello, Miss Lambert. I’m Lucas. I invited you to a meal after the Independence Day Gala, but you turned mé down.”
Joy stopped and smiled at Lucas. “So you’re Mr. Harper. What can I do for you?”
Lucas was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He was well-dressed and had light makeup on his face. Because he put in a lot of effort, he was very direct. “Miss Lambert, ever since I saw you at the Independence Day Gala, I fell in love at first sight. I couldn’t sleep at night and yearned to see you again.
“However, I’m very busy with work. I’ve got tens of thousands of employees depending on me. Moreover, many people in school know me, so it’s not convenient for me to appear, lest I offend you. But today, I couldn’t help but want to see you again, so I came here secretly. I hope you will give us a chance to get to know each other.
Lucas had also investigated Joy before which was why he dared to come to the school to look for her. Joy didn’t like to gossip, or hang out with others. She was usually elusive and solitary. It was almost impossible for her to have any contact with Gia’s circle.
In addition, Gia did not hesitate to pay to be a makeup artist and stylist for the “Immortal Heroes crew to save the studio’s reputation. She joined the crew before the holidays ended and had to juggle her time between the crew and school. She was so busy that she had no time to pay attention to Lucas. That was why he had to use this opportunity to woo Joy and get her.
Joy didn’t even blink. “Sorry, but I already have a fiancé. I can’t date you. Please don’t bother me again.”
“You have a fiance?” Lucas was so shocked that he almost lost his smile. “You’re only 18 years old, right? You just started university. How can you have a lancée? Even if you want to reject me, you can’t use such a lame reason, right?”
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Tm pursuing you so seriously and confessing to you. You can’t trample on my feelings.

Lucas thought. This is the second time. Given who I am, how can Joy keep disrespecting me?”
Joy smiled and said, “I don’t need to lie. If you’re a gentleman, please take it with a smile and leave.”

“I don’t believe you.” There was anger in Lucas’s eyes. “Unless you prove to me you do have a fiancé, I will never accept your rejection.”
Joy stared at him, a cold light flashing in her eyes. Her fingers also moved slightly, as if she wanted to do something to Lucas. However, when she saw the students coming and going around them, many of them looking at them curiously, she endured it. “You’re no one to me. I don’t have to prove anything to you. Also, someone is waiting for me. I’m in a hurry. Bye.
When Joy finished, she quickly moved to the side and walked past Lucas. She was so fast that it took Lucas seconds to react and follow her.
Joy was wearing high heels and walking on the grass. Logically speaking, she couldn’t move fast. However, she was not only elegant but very quick. Lucas had to take big strides to keep up with her.
The forest was not big. Joy walked out of the forest and immediately saw an SUV parked in front of her. A man wearing sunglasses was looking out the window.
Seeing that Lucas was about to catch her, she strode forward without hesitation, opened the door to the front passenger seat of the SUV, and got in
Matthew had already caught sight of Athena so he unlocked the doors. He was about to get out of the car and open the door for Athena. Unexpectedly, a woman suddenly barged in from the passenger side.
Matthew turned to chase the woman away when Joy turned to look at him. When their eyes met, both of them were slightly stunned.
Joy thought, Matthew? What a coincidence
Matthew thought, Joy? Up close, her face is indeed somewhat similar to Athena’s. Even her composure, as if she is observing the world, is somewhat similar. Is their similarities really a coincidence?

Soon, Lucas caught up to them. He kicked the car door hard and shouted angrily, “Get out! If you don’t explain what your relationship is today, none of you will…”
Before Lucas could finish, Matthew looked at him. He took off his sunglasses and said calmly, “Mr. Harper, do you not want your leg anymore?”
The moment Lucas saw Matthew, his face turned pale. His jaw dropped, and he could no longer speak. He thought, “W-why is Matthew here? Why did Joy get into his car? Is Joy having an affair with Matthew?”
Lucas was so shocked that his pupils constricted and he stumbled back. Thoughts flashed through his mind.
There were rumors that Matthew attended the Independence Day Gala of Kitmore University and even presented flowers to Athena and Joy respectively, wanting to woo them both at the same time. Lucas wondered if it was true.
