or have now. What do you take Athena for?"

and

"Shameless!" Brandon exclaimed angrily, voicing the sentiments of his entire family. "You're all over the headlines with other women, frequently trending online, and you even have a child with an ex-girlfriend. Now you claim that Athena is the only girlfriend you've ever had "Madalyn Jaylin are not my girlfriends, but my subordinates." Matthew did not hide anything and told him everything. "They are twins. Madalyn is the older sister, and Jaylin is the younger brother. Jaylin often dresses up as Madalyn and pretends to be my girlfriend to didn't die and was even pregnant. The child was born, but this child has nothing to do with me.

Madalyn did

"At my grandfather's birthday party, Jaylin pretended to be pregnant and faked a miscarriage. That's all." The Donovan family was shocked. "What kind of.. trick is this?

They looked at Athena. Athena nodded, indicating that what Matthew said was true.

Brandon frowned. "What do you want by doing that?"

Matthew responded, "It was to draw attention away and deal with the arranged marriage."

Brandon adjusted his glasses. "What do you mean?"

Luna immediately understood. "Mr. Graham, do you mean that you acted with Madalyn to prevent the Graham family and your marriage partner from noticing Athena?"

Matthew replied, "That's at's right."

Brandon sneered. "In other words, although you look powerful, you don't have the ability to protect Athena, right?"

Matthew

v said, "First of all, I have to correct you on something.

"Athena is very amazing. She has the ability to protect herself and her family. She doesn't need my protection.

"However, whether Athena needs my protection or not is her business. I care about her, so I must do my best to protect her. "The reason why I haven't publicized my feelings for Athena is because I believe that Athena and you don't want to be noticed by the public and suppressed by Graham family and the Powell family. You don't want to be watched and protected by many people either openly or secretly." He paused slightly and looked at Athena. His eyes and tone became gentle. "Also, Athena is still studying and has a lot of things to do. It's not good to be distracted. I also hope that Athena and I can cultivate our relationship without anyone disturbing us until the time is right."

Now was the right time. The Donovan family had become a true powerhouse, wielding immense influence that no one could easily challenge. Moreover, the members of the Donovan family had started to get accustomed to being the "center of attention" and living life in the "high echelons" of society. The Donovan family members looked at each other and fell silent.

Brandon also choked for a moment. Then, he adjusted his glasses and pulled a long face. He wanted to say something else.

Jaden

was the first to speak. "I understand what you mean. I'm willing to believe your sincerity toward Athena."

He changed the topic and his gaze became sharp. "But this means that the Graham family won't agree to you being with Athena, right?" Matthew was silent for two seconds. "Based on the current situation, it should be."

Jaden said, "In that In that case, how do do you plan

said without hesitation,

at Matthew, waiting for his answer.

"I will not persuade the Graham family. I will only inform them that I want to marry Athena. If they don't accept it, I'll leave and start my own company!"

These two sentences completely stunned the Donovan family.

They looked at him and were speechless for a moment.

The Graham family was the foremost powerhouse of Osceiton, the leading financial consortium in the East, and a top-tier clan whose

influence could easily shake the entire economic sphere.

To relinquish such a prestigious background and establish his own path required immense sacrifice and profound awareness.

Even Athena could not help but look at Matthew with a complicated expression.

Jaden composed himself and said first, "Are you really willing to give up everything about the Graham family for Athena? If you really do that, will you resent Athena when you regret it one day?" The Donovan family nodded silently.

Matthew saying that he was willing to leave the Graham family for Athena sounded quite touching, but was this necessarily a good thing for Athena?

Matthew chuckled and said, "If such a day ever comes, the Graham family's refusal to accept Athena would merely be the spark. To me, the Graham family isn't all that important; leaving it would not be a loss for me."

The Donovan family was aggressive aura and became quiet.

He paused I slightly and said said calmly,

Even Brandon put away his

was speechless. It seems that this matter has already been decided. We can only accept it.'

"Alright, Matthew, can I call you that in private?" Wesley said with a smile. "Athena likes you, which means that you must be very good

to her. We have no objections. Come in and prepare to eat."

you, Mr. Donovan." Matthew smiled and held Athena's hand. "As long as you treat me as one of your own, you can call me whatever you want."

Make

That

was what they thought, but they had already accepted Matthew the night Zayn fought the terrorists. Matthew went to Gringger City overnight and said at least he could take a bullet for Athena. Their "assessment" tonight was just a last-ditch struggle. Since it was useless to struggle, they stopped. The atmosphere instantly became lively.

A few of the younger ones were curious.

"Mr. Graham, well, Matthew," Alaric bravely put his arm around Matthew's shoulder and asked, "I heard that in a big family like yours, there are two rows of servants standing on both sides as soon as you arrive home, bowing and bending down, shouting to welcome you home. Is that true?" After a few seconds of silence, Matthew said, "If the time is right, I'll take you to the Graham family and you'll understand."

Arthur asked curiously, "What do you usually eat at home? Is it only very expensive ingredients, like fresh foie gras, fresh Wagyu beef, and the finest caviar? Do you only eat the most tender and tastiest part of each dish, which sounds incredibly wasteful?" Matthew smiled. "If the time is right, I'll bring you and Alaric to the Graham family for a meal. You'll understand."

Josie hugged Dolli and asked curiously, 'Does your family have a lot of rules? Just like on television, you'll be slapped in the palm when you eat and talk. You'll be scolded when you make the slightest sound while eating. You'll also be scolded when you run around the house." Alaric and Arthur thought to themselves, Matthew will bring you to his house for a meal, and you'll understand.'

However, Matthew patted Josie's head. "Sometimes, it's like this.

So, our family is not good at all. Your family is the best."

Alaric and Arthur suspected that Matthew was biased.

While they were curiously asking Matthew various questions, Athena received a message from Cora: [We found your mentor.

He's not in a good state. We've also confirmed that the mysterious force that has been secretly searching for him is the Rose family. They will find him soon.]
