Chapter 28

Wesley and Claire were both surprised and delighted as they picked up their bottles of supplements and carefully read the instructions. "Athena, your lab is amazing. It seems like they can develop anything." Wesley remarked. Athena smiled. "Yes, I'm really lucky to be part of such a cutting edge research team." Tll bring you samples of any new products our labs develops for you to try."

"Athena, Athena," Arthur said, playfully pressing his fists to his clun and pretending to look pitiful. "What about my gift? What did you get for me?"

Athena reached into her bag and pulled out a box, opening it to reveal its contents. "Arthur, this is a prototype of the new super smartphone our lab just developed."

"It has satellite positioning and an automatic alarm system. It's waterproof, fireproof, shockproof, and theft-proof. You can read the manual for more details" Everyone's eyes widened at the sight of the phone. It looked incredibly sleek and high-end. Good thing it was just a prototype; otherwise, it would cost a fortune. "Thank you, Athena." Arthur said happily, taking the box and examining the phone, quickly navigating through its interface.

Arthur was at the age where having a good phone was essential, especially since he was good-looking.

This phone's features and specifications were far beyond simple, and it would cost a seven-figure sum on the market. But she didn't mention that to avoid overwhelming the family.

said, suddenly biting her lip and glancing at Athena, unsure whether to continue. Given the price of Yonder products, it seemed unlikely that the bag Athena gave her could be genuine, no matter how high-quality it appeared. Of course, she didn't mean to sound ungrateful-she just realized she might have misspoken. Athena understood what Maria was thinking and smiled. "Yonder' collaborates with our lab, which provides them with the special synthetic leather used in this bag. I designed this bag myself, with Miss Yonder's permission and approval." "You
