She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

When Jerry realized that his phone and Twitter account were normal, he immediately deleted the message posted by the hacker and bowed to the camera. "I'm very sorry. The hacker attacked my phone and Twitter account. I didn't post those photos myself. I offer my deepest apologies to the individuals involved..." However, it was too late. These images had already spread across the Internet. The related trending topics surged consecutively. Even the individual involved was unable to respond promptly, not to mention blocking and deleting the news.

Jerry was a mix of anxious and furious. Despite this, Gavin persistently demanded payment. Overwhelmed by rage, Jerry commanded his assistant, "Teach him a lesson and throw him out."

Gavin was outnumbered and couldn't fend off the assailants. He was beaten mercilessly until his face was grotesquely swollen, then unceremoniously ejected.

As a black van cruised by him, Gavin had no time to react. The van's door swung open, and several pairs of hands yanked him inside. The door slammed shut, and the van sped off into the night.

More than an hour later. Jerry and his two assistants came out of the unlisted studio. The moment they stepped into the parking lot, several individuals clamped their hands over Jerry and his assistants' mouths and dragged them into a waiting vehicle.

After they were sent to a place, they saw Joy in the dark and sealed room. They did not know that the girl was Joy.

Joy's entire body was wrapped in a black robe, revealing only her deep and cold eyes.

There was no light in the room, only a large candle burning, and a soothing scented candle.

Joy held a watch made of pure gold in her hand. Seated before Gavin, she gently swayed the watch back and forth. She inquired, "Who instructed you to reveal the news during the live broadcast?"

Gavin stared at the golden watch, his line of sight tracking its pendulous motion from side to side. In a trance, he replied, "A, a person named Andrew."

Joy asked, "Why does he ask you to expose the news in Jerry's live-stream?"

Gavin replied, "Because, because he hates the Donovan family. He wants to seek justice for me."

Joy asked, "Why does he hate the Donovan family? What justice do you want?"

Gavin's expression became more and more dazed. He fell into a sleepwalking state and lost his own thoughts. Obediently, he followed the voice whispering in his ear. "Because he's a close friend of the Donovan brothers. The Donovans belittled him after he amassed his wealth. He harbors resentment towards the Donovan family..."
