She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 159

The outside of the wall was not within the range of the villa, so the two owls did not continue to attack. Instead, they flew to the magnolia tree and scanned their surroundings with their four big eyes. Athena heard a man's voice coming from outside the wall. It sounded like a young boy, clear and bright, with a light, playful tone, carrying a hint of coquettishness and grievance.. "Mom, I'm sure I didn't see it wrong, and there's no way I entered the wrong password. Mom, don't ignore me. I just miss you and want to talk to you more........ Athena suddenly thought of something when she heard this voice. Could he be Alaric? she thought.

She had seen Alaric's photos but had never video-called or talked to him.

Alaric a

refused to video call or talk to her, claiming that he was too handsome for the camera to fully capture his charm. He insisted that their first meeting had to be in person. She had also heard that he declined to look at any photos of her, saying that such a significant moment as their first encounter shouldn't be reduced to something as simple as recognizing each other from pictures. For him, they needed to meet face-to-face and leave a good impression. However, Arthur secretly told her, "Actually, he's just shy. He even feels shy when he sees your photo. He needs time to prepare to see you

Athena curiously asked him. "If he's this shy, what will he be like when he meets me?

Arthur waved his hand. "Once that moment comes, he'll be fine, it's just like in a competition. Before going on stage, you have a lot on your mind, but when you're actually there, all you can think about is winning, and you don't have time to worry about anything else." Thinking of this, Athena went downstairs, ready to open the big metal door. that moment, Alaric Alaric was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his back to the door, talking on the phone. Is Athena. home? Didn't you say the whole family went to the restaurant to help? Why is one person still at home..." Before he could finish speaking, he heard the sound of the door opening behind him, along with a sweet, gentle girl's voice saying. "Alaric, it's me, Athena. I've opened the door for you."

He turned in surprise and saw a girl with fair skin. long hair, bright eyes, and a and a beauty like a fairy standing bebind the door. looking at him with her hands behind her back.

"Y-you, Athena... He was so nervous that his fingers trembled, causing his phone to drop to the ground. His voice stuttered, "W-what are you doing here...?

He felt a moment of panic as his mind went blank. Athena had seen him in such an embarrassing state, and he felt so humiliated.

He had wanted to come home when Athena wasn't home so he could tidy up and show her how handsome he was

Athena walked out from behind the door, bent down to pick up his phone, and handed it to him. "Alaric, it's so hot outside. Why don't you go in?"

Only then did Alaric react and hurriedly take the phone. "Thank you, thank you....

"The door password I was given was wrong. I... I thought there was no one at home, and I was too embarrassed to call anyone,
