Matthew stopped in front of Athena, gazing intently at her. He handed her a bouquet of flowers and said politely. "Miss Donovan, congratulations on your perfect score in the exams. Please accept these flowers and my best wishes" Athena let out a soft "Oh" and reached out to take the bouquet of roses. Thank you." She then stood there, holding the flowers and staring blankly at Matthew, wondering what she should say. She felt like she had so much to say, but suddenly couldn't figure out where to start. Matthew was also looking at her, thinking about what he should say.
He thought. 'Should I compliment her lively high ponytail? Mention how cute her yellow duck t-shirt is? Or tell her that the roses really suit her, making her skin look even fairer and healthier, and her eyes even bigger and brighter? Everyone around them was watching, collectively thinking, "They're such a perfect match
They really did look perfect together-like the finest sword paired with the perfect sheath. Together, they'd be unstoppable. Of course, Matthew was the sword, and Athena the sheath. Whenever Matthew stood in front of Athena, fis sharp, cold demeanor softened

Louis finally couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stepped forward and stood beside Matthew, politely addressing Athena, "Miss Donovan, it's nice to see you again. I always knew you were outstanding, but I didn't expect you to achieve such an incredible score. As your friend, I'm truly proud of you." The crowd I was stunned, thinking, 'Matthew's personal secretary is friends with Athena? That's wild!"
Everyone who had tried to get close to Matthew knew that to even approach him, you first had to win over Louis.

It just doesn't add up-there is something really strange about all this... Meanwhile, Zoe was standing off to the side, her eyes practically shooting flames as jealousy gnawed at her. She felt like everyone's gaze was stabbing into her like needles, making her wish she could vanish on the spot.
