You don't know, but my mother's cooking is delicious. I had a good meal. "Also, I watched your family's press conference just now. You're too conspicuous, so I don't miss you. Then, she thought for a moment and added, "I may only miss you tomorrow." Matthew chuckled softly, "Thanks, When I'm done here, I'll treat you. Hopefully, you'll agree." Athena replied. "Alright." Speaking of which, Matthew had already said he would treat her to several meals. Athena wondered how long it would take to finish them. Then, she thought of something. "Is your sister alright?" Matthew replied. "Lucy is asleep. There shouldn't be any major problems for now." Athena asked, "Will you let her stay in Valemont City?" Athena disapproved of Lucy staying in Valemont City. Valemont City was too chaotic so it was not suitable for Lucy to recuperate, "No." Matthew smiled, "Tll send her away tomorrow morning. I definitely won't let the Graham family find her.

Before Athena could answer, he added, "It's my honor to meet you. I need to go now, Good night." With that, he hung up. Athena reminisced about Matthew's low and magnetic voice. It felt like a breeze on a summer night. It crept in through the gap in the curtains and surrounded her, caressing her gently. It made her tingle with sweetness and contentment.

After the call, Matthew returned to his usual indifference. He walked back to the entrance of the building and looked at the black car that was slowly approaching The black car stopped in front of him. A tall woman with long black hair, a white dress, and a mask got out. She grabbed his sleeve and followed him into the building The door of the building closed. The tall slender woman never left.
