She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 481

Athena had set up a scheduled release on the Cherry Literature Network, and the latest chapter had just been plished.

Since it was almost 2 a.m., and the previous updates had been hacked into garbled text, readers didn't expect a new update, so not many people saw this chapter right away.

Joy opened the article page and quickly skimmed through it.

This chapter was written somewhat hastily, giving it a rushed feel.

The content was roughly about how Lara's identity was discovered by Lockwood, causing her great concern that her biological family would find her and take her back. After finally making a name for herself and preparing to take over her current parents' business, she didn't want years of effort to go to waste.

Lara warned Lockwood to mind his own business and keep her secret. She was willing to offer the Stevens family a huge compensation.

However, Lockwood said he had to give the Stevens family an answer since they had hired him. So, he told them the truth and relayed Lara's wishes, suggesting they not seek her out or reveal her secret. But after searching for their beloved daughter for so many years, the Stevens family couldn't bear the thought of losing her again. They decided to seek justice for themselves.

They exposed the truth about Lara's disappearance, accusing her current parents of abducting her. They even went to Eldoria, hoping to reunite with their daughter and bring her back home.

Lara's current parents ran a large company with many stakeholders. When the shareholders, directors, executives, and family members learned that Lara was not their biological daughter, they demanded she be removed from the company. They accused her current parents of deceiving friends, shareholders, and the public, and started holding them accountable. Lara and her current parents were kicked out of the company.

Her current parents were furious with the Stevens family, blaming them for their downfall, and decided to seek Lara, who had nothing, also hated the Stevens family and decided to bring them.

As a result, Lara and her current parents hired international assassins at a family people disappear from this world.
