She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78
Even in the dark, Richard could feel the gazes of others. He said Falmly, “Don’t look at me like that. I really want Lucy to disappear, but I’m not crazy to the point of doing this.
Everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was hard to tell if they were gratified or disappointed.
Someone said carefully. In other words, someone wised Lucy and Matthew’s death more than us.
“If Lucy is really fine, the mastermind of the accident would take action again, right? Should we sit back and watch them fight?
Richard sneered. “If I were the murderer, 1 would think so too. I guess they’d sit back and watch us fight against Matthew and Lucy
The person who spoke fell silent.
A moment later, someone spoke. Tve been keeping an eye on Matthew this week. He left Valemont City on a private jet three days ago. He must have gone overseas to pick up Lucy. He should be back in Valemont City tomorrow. As soon as his private jet lands in Valemont City, I’ll be able to track him.”
At this point, there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. If Lucy is fine, make her not. In short, we can’t lose this battle
The others were first shocked by his madness. Then, they fell silent, not daring to show their support or object
Richard was their backbone.
The others were still inexperienced and had no chance to defeat Matthew,
If they did not want to be kicked out of the core of Graham Group’s power, they had to protect Richard.
Richard’s eyes were filled with admiration. “That’s a good idea. However, Matthew must have made thorough preparations. He might be waiting for you to take action.”
That person said coldly, “Wealth comes from danger. Instead of waiting for Matthew and Lucy to make a mistake or die, we should take the risk.”
The others were even more silent.
They agreed with the person, as long as they didn’t need to participate in those risky actions.
Richard said, “Alright, I’ll leave this to you.”
The man said, “Don’t worry, I won’t do it myself, and I won’t leave any clues
The secret room fell into a short silence.
Someone whispered, “Who do you think the mastermind is?”
others said one after another, “It must be Lucy’s sworn energy. She has offended so many people.”
“Not necessarily. Richard sneered, “Let me teach you another lesson. The human heart is unpredictable. I’ve been fighting with Matthew and Lucy for so many years, but I’ve never thought of hiring someone to kill them. But those who don’t look so ruthless and even have a good relationship with them may have done so.”
At this point, he put on a sinister smile. Perhaps the mastermind is right beside us. They can kill anyone, not just Lucy”
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts when they heard this. And the room seemed to be colder.

“We need backup plans no matter what we do, more than one. Richard stood up and said slowly. “It’s getting late. I should sleep. Have a discussion. If the sniping of Lucy doesn’t succeed, what should we do next? Tell me your solution tomorrow
moning.”
Richard’s men discussed all night.
Matthew also spent the night with Lucy in the ward.
9am. Athena walked into the ward wearing a mask and saw Matthew sitting by the bed, holding Lucy’s hand.
When he saw Athena enter, Matthew put down his sister’s hand and stood up. He said politely, “Dr. Annie, good morning.”
Athena nodded and did not say anything. She observed Matthew first. Seeing that he looked good and energetic, she looked at Lucy.
The wound on Lucy’s head healed a little more. She did not look like she had just undergone surgery a few days ago. Her face wasn’t as pale as before. She just needed a little bit of makeup to look good.
Athena flipped through the latest medical report and asked, “How long did your sister wake up last night? Did she say anything? How’s her mood?”
Matthew said, “My sister woke up three to four times in a row. The longest time was ten minutes, and the shortest was only ten seconds. Sometimes she doesn’t open her eyes, but her fingers move. She only said a few words. I did tell her a lot. I think she could hear everything I said.”
Under the mask, Athena smiled. “Your sister is fine now. She just needs to rest well. I’ve prescribed some new medicine for her. Make sure she takes it in time. She should be recovered within a year.”
Thank you, Dr. Annie. Matthew looked at her deeply. “I’ll bring my sister back to Valemont City to attend the press. conference this afternoon. I hope she’ll be able to make a short speech. Can you prescribe something for her?”
After that, he added, “I mentioned this to my sister. She said she had to go.
Athena thought for a moment and asked Freya to get two traditional medicines. “Take the big one half an hour in advance, It’ll keep her awake and in a good me***l state, but it can only last for half an hour at most. After it’s over, let her take the small one. It’ll help with her sleep.
Matthew took the medicine solemnly. “Thank you, Dr. Annie.
Athena adjusted her glasses. “We should go back. I’ll get Freya to contact you about the car. Then, without another word, she turned around and left.
Matthew did not ask her to stay or say anything more. He just sent her to the courtyard, watched her and her people get into the car, and then watched her leave.
Louis adjusted his glasses and said in a low voice, “Mr. Graham, don’t you think Dr. Annie looks a little similar to Miss Donovan? Our people find out that Miss Donovan has a twin sister. Do you think it could be Dr. Annie?
Matthew glanced at him expressionlessly. “I checked before I came here. On the night Dr. Annie arrived in Dichester, Athena left Donovan’s house. It’s said that she went to the mountains with the scientific expedition team to collect scientific data and won’t return within a week. Her phone has been switched off since that night. I can’t reach her.
“Huh? Louis widened his eyes and kept adjusting his glasses. “You mean, Miss Athena is… Dr. Annie?”
Matthew said calmly. “You can think whatever you want, but dont tell
anyone. I don’t want anyone
to target her for now.”
The elders in the Graham family were already in their 80s and 90s. They were all trying to live longer.
If Dr. Annie’s identity was exposed, who knew how many rich old men who were afraid of death would look for her.

Louis also thought of somerbing and nodded “I understand.”
Mathew did not say anything else. He retomed in the wand and his eyes, and said slowly. Tay do som still remember how Mo birthday party and there came many guests.
