She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 166

cas and the others could not forget Athena and were always thinking about how to take revenge on her. Honeret, Athena did not care about them at all.

They were probably like mosquitoes to her. When the mosquitoes buzzed in her ear, she would swat them away. When the mosquitoes weren't around, she wouldn't even think about them. After leaving kindergarten with Josie, she went to the hospital to visit her grandparents.

Az this moment, Cade and Fiona were chatting with Jaden. When they saw their two precious granddaughters come over, they were overjoyed. Then they happily ate lunch together in the hospital room. Jaden Athena, and Josie only left when Cade and Fiona were about to take a rest.

Jaden's van was left with the rural workers to transport vegetables and poultry to the restaurant. So, Athena first took Josie to the restaurant, then took Jaden back to Oxhorn Village for the night.

It was not even five in the afternoon when the two of them arrived at Oxhorn Village.

Luna was dressed like a village woman wearing a straw hat, a plain light-colored cotton shirt, black cotton pants, and ordinary flat sandals. She wore no makeup or jewelry, and her hair was casually tied back. Although she didn't look as bright sad she remained naturally beautiful and down-to-earth.

She was delighted to see Jaden return and asked expectantly, "Are you going to cook dinner?"

Jaden nodded. Im going to pick vegetables now."

Athena and Luna followed him into the vegetable garden, picking whatever they liked.

Luna said I eagerly. I must have stir-fried sweet and sour vegetables and mashed potato for dinner tonight. The rest, you can decide

were incredibly appetizing, and they were perfect with strained yogurt or grits. She felt her mouth was tasteless if she didn't eat them for a day.

She was even a little worried that once these dishes were out of season, she wouldn't be able to eat them anymore.

Athena also said, "It's too hot. I'm going to be a vegetarian too."

Half of the reason she enthusiastically offered to take Jaden back to the village was that she wanted to eat vegetables picked directly from the ground. This time, she chose eggplant and cabbage.

Jaden thought for a moment and said, "We need meat. I'll make chicken soup."

Although eating chicken soup in the summer could be quite heavy, a chicken soup made with ginger, garlic, scallions, and a souch of chili could be very refreshing and appetizing.

Athena was almost drooling at the thought and clapped her hands, saying, "Alright, alright! I'll help you cook."

Jaden went to the chicken shed on the other side of the flower slope, chose a big fat chicken, and brought it home to daughter.
