She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 136 49%

Athena's eyes flickered as her mind raced.

Jaden was right. It was normal that Children didn't like certain things but ended up wanting them influenced by their surroundings. However, the fact that something so strange happened right before Zilvin's incident made Athena feel that things weren't that simple.. She asked, "Did Zilvia ever talk about her dreams or goals? Or, did she mention anything she wanted to do or places she wanted to go?

Jaden paused for a moment before saying, "Although she didn't say it explicitly, during the school survey, she mentioned that her goal is to pursue boundless ideals and a bright future. Athena paused mid-scoop of her dessert, looking up in surprise.

Noticing her reaction, Jaden smiled. "What's wrong?"

Athena replied. That was my too. When I was in kindergarten, I gave a speech on that theme and won first place."

Jaden, equally surprised, studied her for a few seconds before chuckling. "If you had gone missing when you were five, I might have suspected you were Zilvia”

Athena tapped her head lightly and said, "Although Zilvia and I have many similarities, we probably have more differences." Jaden looked at her deeply but didn't continue discussing the resemblance between them. "After just one year in kindergarten, Zilvia said it was boring and that the kids were too childish. She wanted to start primary school. The family planned to let her take the entrance exam for the middle school at Kitmore City School after another six months." e again.

Athena was taken aback once

She had attended both middle and high school at Kitmore City School.

If Zilvia hadn't had that unfortunate accident, they would likely have met there.

Jaden then seemed to recall something. "By the way, all of Zilvia's things are still at home, kept in a few boxes under the bed in the old house at Viento Court. No one has dared to touch them all these years. If you want, you can go and take a look." Athena nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go over in the next couple of days."

She paused briefly before broaching a topic she had long planned to ask, "What kind of person is Catherine?

Jaden hadn't expected this question, and after a moment of contemplation, he replied, "When Mom was pregnant with you guys, she was older and had to take care of many children, so the family decided to hire a nanny to take care of her. Catherine volunteered for the job as soon as she found out. Since she had experience with childbirth, the family accepted

her.

"She has a high emotional intelligence and took great care of Mom. She also got along well with the whole family. We've always considered her one of us."

Jaden paused for a few seconds before continuing, "However, her reputation back in Mom's hometown and Maria's hometown was terrible. Personally, I don't like her much."

He gazed at Athena. "Do you think I'm being biased against Catherine?"
