Chapter 210
After Athena returned to the villa, she told Claire and Arthur that she wanted to send some of their homemade dishes to a very important person tomorrow morning. She asked them to make three extra portions of food for breakfast. She also requested a high protein menu.
Arthur commented, “This friend of yours is quite a glutton. He can eat three portions by himself. He can eat even more than me.”
Claire was very happy. She promised. “Don’t worry. I guarantee that your friend will ear well and be full.”
The next morning, at 8:30 am, Athena hurriedly got out of bed and washed up.
She carried a new blanket in one hand and a large lunch box in another. She stuffed everything into the car and went out.
When she arrived at the old residential building, Brandon popped out from the building next to it. He smiled at her and said, “I just came back from a walk. What a coincidence.”
Athena noticed the dark circles under Brandon’s eyes. She figured he probably didn’t sleep well last night and had been waiting for her to come over this morning.
She pretended that she noticed nothing With a smile, she said, I brought you food and a new blanket. Let’s bring them together.
“You even brought me a new blanket!” Brandon’s eyes were slightly red as he said, “Thank you”
Athena stuffed the blanket into Brandon’s arms and said, “I haven’t had my breakfast yet. Let’s eat together.”
With a slightly nasal voice, Brandon replied. “Okay”
After entering the house, Athena turned on the television to watch the ne
news.
The two of them chatted about current international and domestic affairs as they ate. Surprisingly, they clicked well and enjoyed talking to each other.
When they were almost done with breakfast, Athena asked, “Did you major in artificial intelligence in university?”
up
Brandon nodded and replied, “Yes, I specialized in artificial intelligence algorithms and models. I’ve been very interested in robots since I was young.”
He continued, “My dream is to create intelligent robots that can communicate with humans. They will keep the elderly, the children, and the sick company. Not only can they care for humans like our friends, but they can also care and even protect their owners like nannies.
Athena affirmed him and said, “Your dream sounds great. There is an increasing number of single parents and people living alone nowadays. Im sure their lives will be happier and better with smart bots by their side.
Brandon nodded and said, “I believe that smart bots cannot completely replace humans, However, they can at least contact. the emergency service when their owners are sick or unconscious. They can also help take care of children when single parents are out for work or running errands. On top of that, smart bots can help owners take care of pets and do simple house chores. Most importantly, they will never betray their owners.”
Athena gave Brandon a thumbs up and exclaimed, “I want such a smart bot too.”
She sincerely agreed with Brandon’s vision.
In fact, she already had such a robot.

Chapter 210.
There were two Al robot eagles standing on the roof of the Donyan family residence. Athena figured the robot eagles must have recognized Brandon’s identity when he snuck into the villa. Therefore, they did not sound the alarm.
Brandon said confidently, “I will definitely make the smart bot of my dream a reality. In the near future, every household will have access to a smart bot
Athena asked. “Brandon, have you decided which company you want to work in!”
Brandon was serving himself some tuna casserole. He paused for a brief moment when he heard Athena’s question. Then, he regained his composure and said, “I want to start my own company, but it’s an unrealistic idea at the moment. I plan to help Jaden with farming first to earn some capital. Then, I take out a loan or find a few partners to start a company. This process will take at least a few years.”
Athena saw the bitterness in Brandon’s eyes and did not continue probing. She encouraged him, saying, “Brandon, you’re still young. There are plenty of opportunities. There’s no rush. Take it slow.”
It had been a long time since Brandon last had Claire’s home cooked meal.
He wolfed down a big plate of baked pasta, some tuna casserole, a few chicken wings, and a serving of sauteed mushrooms. What he ate was enough to feed two grown men
There were still plenty of leftovers for Brandon to heat up for another meal or two.
Brandon exclaimed, “This is so delicious! There’s nothing better than a home cooked meal!”
As he wiped his mouth with a napkin in satisfaction, he packed the remaining food. He narrowed hi and sniffed the fragrance of the food. With a satisfied expression, he muttered, I feel very happy now.”
He continued, “I will never want to go abroad again for the rest of my life. I want to stay close to home. At least I’m back
now.
Even though Brandon did not spell it out loud. Athena could tell that he had been living a difficult life overseas for the past
few years.
Athena listened to his mumbles silently.
A few minutes later, Brandon carefully closed the lunch box and said, “Athena, I’m going to work. Do you want to go home now? Or do you want to stay here?”
Athena said, “I’m going home. I’ll give you a ride on the way.”
She was meeting Matthew at night.
Therefore, she had to finish her work during the day.
At night, Matthew once again rushed over from Valemont City to treat her to a meal.
Athena said bashfully, “Why don’t I treat you to a meal at Valemont City next time?”
Matthew shook his head in disagreement and said, “No. It’s better for me to come to Kitmore City to see you. There are too many people spying on me in Valemont City. I don’t want the Graham family to notice you.”
Athena asked curiously, “Is the Graham family really that scary
Athena was astonished by the precautions Matthew had taken to protect Lucy and her over the past few months.
Her curiosity was piqued.

Matthew gently turned the glass in his hand. After a moment of silence, he said, “For me, they’re not scary. However, I

worried that people I care about will be hurt again, just like my mother and my sister.”
Matthew looked up and stared into Athena’s eyes. He said in a low voice, “If you get hurt by the Graham family because of me. Il never be able to forgive myself”
Athena thought, “What he said sounds like a confession.
Athena blushed, but it went unnoticed due to the dim light. She said, “I’ve heard about what happened to your sister. As for what happened to your mother… Can you tell me about it? As you’re aware, I’m a detective.
Matthew thought, ‘Did she just admit that she is Lockwood!”
Matthew was not surprised by Athena’s confession.
However, he was happy that Athena had taken the initiative to tell him her identity. After all, Athena had been keeping it a secret from everyone else.
“I’m willing to tell you everything” Matthew was silent for a few seconds before he continued, “Up until now, I still can’t figure out how my mother fell off the building
Matthew then went on to tell Athena about the death of Maggie,
