She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 436

'It's really the Rose family!' Athena's heart skipped a beat, but her expression did not change. She typed: [Protect my mentor with all your might. I'll visit him tonight.]

Then, she put away her phone and ate with the entire family.

This was the first time Matthew had eaten in the Donovan family. Almost all the Donovan family people were secretly sizing him up. Although they did not say it out loud, they were still worried that Matthew was not used to the conditions and food in their family.

Fortunately, although Matthew did not eat quickly, he had eaten a lot and tasted every dish.

What touched them the most was Matthew's eating posture. He had a proper posture and elegant bearing. His elbows did not touch the table, and he chewed without showing his teeth. His lips were not stained with food crumbs. He did not make a single sound during the entire meal. If he wanted to speak, he had to swallow the food in his mouth before speaking.

His elegance cultivated from birth through lessons in poise and etiquette truly astounded the Donovan family.

However, he did not show any dissatisfaction with the Donovan family people's behavior of eating, laughing, and even fooling around. He often watched and listened to them.

When they were almost done eating, Wesley asked nervously, "Matthew, is the food to your liking?"

Matthew smiled and nodded. "It's very delicious, better than any food I've eaten."

Claire smiled. "If you like it, come and eat more often in the future."

Matthew nodded. "Alright, as long as I come to Kitmore City in the future, I will definitely visit you. I hope everyone will not mind."

"Not at all," Wesley said. "No matter when you come, we will welcome you."

The men in the Donovan family had mixed feelings. This... was really inviting a wolf into the house. All the women in the house seemed to be attracted to Matthew.

Josie ate the food in her bowl, but her eyes were fixed on Matthew. She even snickered from time to time. Claire asked her why she kept laughing. Josie covered her eyes and said, "Matthew is so good-looking. He looks like the male lead in an idol drama."

When Matthew heard this, he patted her head and smiled. "Thank you for the compliment. I'm very happy."

Maria seemed to be a little afraid of Matthew. She did not dare to approach him or talk to him, but she would occasionally steal glances at him.

Claire grew fonder of her son-in-law the more she watched him, her eyes and lips relaxing into an indescribable satisfaction. She frequently urged him to eat more and asked him questions like "What dishes do you like?", "Can you handle spicy food?", and "Would you like to take some ratatouille and sausage home with you?"

Athena did not say much. She only looked at Matthew with a sweet gaze. Of course, Matthew always looked at her. When their eyes met, the others felt that they had become invisible.

The Donovan family's men all thought to themselves that they were really going to fall out of favor.

Even Dolli was sticking to Matthew. She took the initiative to crawl into his arms and rub her little head against his face. She wished she could go home with Matthew.

After dinner, Matthew politely thanked the Donovan family. "This dinner was wonderful. Thank you for your hospitality. Please let me entertain you next time."

Everyone felt a little flattered. "We're family. You're welcome..."

Then, they felt depressed. 'Why did we say family? He's still far from becoming a "family" to us...'

Then, Matthew played games with Arthur, played chess with Jaden, arm-wrestled with Brandon, competed with Zayn in push-ups, and competed with Alaric in shooting... In the end, other than losing a little to Zayn in push-ups and tying with Alaric in shooting, he won everything.

The man in the Donovan family was depressed.

Alaric said indignantly, "Next time you come in the day, we'll go to the tennis court and see how I torture you."
