She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 326

Athena

lightly shook her phone and said, "Same here."

After exchanging a knowing glance, they both bent down to check their devices.

Their phones were equipped with anti-intrusion software, which, if breached, would trigger a self-destruct sequence, taking out any connected devices-like each other's phones and computers.

Thankfully, their systems were holding up well; the screens showed that the other party had failed in their attempts.

This only reinforced their suspicions that the Unity Circle was anything but legitimate, and they needed to stay alert.

After walking for a few more minutes, Matthew said, "Looks like someone's following us. What do you want to do about it?"

Athena replied, "We've got a signal here; we should call for a ride

Given their skills, she and Matthew could easily catch their shadow, but what would that accomplish?

These stalkers were likely just low-level lackeys following orders and capturing them wouldn't give them any useful information. It just wasn't worth the trouble.

As for why they didn't take the car they came in, it was because they had borrowed the Miracle. If that car was spotted, the Messenger would likely connect the dots back to them and figure out Matthew's identity. If they wanted to avoid any ties to the Unity Circle, it was best to keep their identities under wraps.

Matthew glanced up at the chilly, dark sky, a small smile playing on his lips. "You know, on a night like this, a walk together doesn't sound too bad."

Athena smiled back.

Despite the lack of stars or moonlight, the cold, still air wrapped around them, creating a quiet scene that was surprisingly, comforting.
