She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 178

After Joy finished watching Matthew's latest report, she turned off the TV.

She then picked up the detailed dossier on the Donovan family and quickly scanned through it

There had been a lot of talk on campus about Athena and the Donovan family, and Joy had seen and heard plenty of it.

But she never fully believed in hearsay. She only trusted facts that were investigated and substantiated.

The materials

she had now were very thorough, complete with photos, videos, and media reports, which included the medical records of the two elder members of the Donovan family, and information about the Wesley couple's business and restaurant, Jaden's rural life, and photos of Arthur and Alaric.

However, most of this didn't t concern Joy. Only two things caught her attention.

One was that after Athena returned to the Donovan family, there had been a series of significant changes, and her relationship with Vission Group executives, Harry and Rufus, was quite unusual.

"The changes in the Donovan family were brought about by Athena, right?" Joy said, gazing at a photo of Athena with a faint smile. "You truly are talented. Let me see just how clever you really are and what you can achieve."

The

other

piece of information was that the Donovan family was still searching for their long-missing daughter, Zilvia, spending 20 thousand dollars each year on professional search agencies. There was a thick stack of documents regarding Zilvia's disappearance.

But Joy

only glanced at the summary page at the front and didn't bother with the rest.

"How stubborn," she murmured. "Such stubbornness isn't wise."

She burned all the materials, flushing the ashes down the toilet without leaving a trace.

Then she sat in front of the mirror and applied a natural makeup look.

Once done, Joy checked herself from side to side to ensure she didn't resemble Athena too much before putting on a single- frame glasses, grabbing her bag, and heading out.
