She Outshines 95


    Chapter 95


    Maria said nonchntly, “It’s just a man, How can hepare to family? I wouldn’t fight with my


    family over a man.”


    Athena blinked. She couldn’t believe Maria was like that.


    Athena saw how much Maria loved romance dramas. As Maria started working very young, Athena


    thought Maria wanted to fall in love and get married as soon as possible. She had expected Maria


    to end up listening to her family’s opinion but hide secretly to cry and indulge in self-pity


    After some thought. Athena was still worried. “Don’t you think it’s disrespectful if your family meddle


    too much and not respect your feelings and freedom?”


    This time, it was Maria who blinked in surprise. “No way. Even if my family wants me to die, it must


    be for my own good. Why would I refuse them?”


    Athena’s eyelids twitched when she heard that. She quickly waved her hands. “No. If your family or


    someone else wants you to die, you must resist, get it? You must escape or call the police


    However, Maria said seriously, “No one in this world treats me better than my family. No matter what


    my family wants me to do, they are true to me.”


    Maria poked herself in her head and added embarrassedly, “As you know, I’m dumb. I didn’t study


    much and don’t know much. I don’t think too deeply about many things. I might as well listen to my


    family. At least they won’t harm me


    Athena was speechless. She thought, “Wow, I can’t believe Mom and Dad are so capable. They’ve


    got their children’s full respect andplete trust.


    A few secondster, Athena said, “If I interfere in your private matters, will you be angry with me!”


    “No.” Maria rubbed her nose and said embarrassedly, “Athena, you’re so good and so smart. No


    matter what you do, it will make sense. I trust you.


    Since Maria had already said so, Athena did not stand on ceremony. She immediately opened her


    phone and showed Maria the conversation between Dwayne and her. “Take your time and think


    about it. I think Dwayne is seducing me through you. He wants to get close to a rich and beautiful


    woman like me so he can cut out on years of hard work.”


    Maria was shocked. She looked between the conversation and Athena a few times before pulling a


    long face. “Hmph! This b**d not only wants to use me, but he even dares to have designs on you. I


    won’t forgive him. I’m gonna call him and yell at him now.”


    Then, Maria paused and said, “Uh, I’ll scold him on iMessage. After that, I’ll block him and turn off


    my phone so he won’t be able to look me up.


    With that, Maria took out her phone from her bag.


    Athena quickly put her hand on Maria’s phone. I suggest you read all the conversations between


    Dwayne and me first, then recall the dramas you’ve watched. You can analyze if my words make


    sense before making a decision.


    Maria sighed and waved her hand. “There’s no need to analyze it when someone smart like you has


    already analyzed it. Why would a st***id girl like me do it again?”


    Athena thought for a moment and said seriously, “But this is your business. Is it good for you to


    listen to everyone else! Besides, don’t you have a soft spot for Dwayne and think he was good guy?


    Aren’t you grateful to him?”


    Maria said, “I do have a good impression of him, but how can itpare to my family?” She


    showed Athena her phone screen. “Look, I’ve already scolded him and blocked him.”

    Athena looked at Maria’s phone. Maria sent a row of “furious” emojis and wrote: [My sister is smart.


    She can tell at a nce what you’re up to. I didn’t expect you to be such a person. I’m really


    disappointed. I’ll cklist you. I hope I never see you again. Stop harassing my sister. You’re not


    good enough for her


    Maria waited for Athena to finish reading before turning off her phone. She snorted. Tll change my


    phone number tomorrow so he won’t be able to find me again.”


    Athena blinked at how straightforward and decisive Maria was acting. She decided that her


    judgment was not always 1001


    urate


    Maria put away her phone and returned to her normal self. She shid uneasily, “Athena, I’m


    inexperienced this time. I misjudged Dwayne. Il be more careful next time


    “That’s not a problem” Athena raised her hand. Tm just very touched that you believe me. However,


    I still have to tell you why I think there’s something wrong with Dwayne.”


    Athena began listing all the problems. “Dwayne’s very kind and passionate to you, but he is always


    looking at me. Not only does he stare at my face and chest, but he also looks enviously at my


    clothes, bag, and shoes. He said he was once admitted to Kitmore University, but because his


    family was poor, he couldn’t attend university and had no choice but to work. This is


    a lie.


    “Kitmore University is one of the four major universities. If someone from a poor family in the


    country could get into such a university, his family would see it as an honor. They would send him to


    school at any cost.


    “If his family can’t raise enough tuition fees even if they sell everything they have, he can also apply


    for a student


    oan. The school and society will support him. People like him who can’t afford to study at a


    prestigious university because their families are poor don’t exist.


    “Oh, I see. That makes sense.” Maria looked at Athena with admiration and kept nodding.


    Athena continued, “Furthermore, Dwayne said he bought a house in Kitmore City and is going to


    open a styling studio. I’ve checked. He doesn’t have a house here at all. He’s living with a rich


    woman now. He’s also persuading other rich women to fund his studio.


    Maria was shocked. “What? How can Dwayne do that? That’s disgusting.”


    Athena said, “I’ve asked the coffee shop about returning your sry. The manager said Dwayne


    gave her the money and asked her to transfer it to you in the name of giving you back your sry.


    She looked at Maria. “Do you know why Dwayne


    is so kind?”


    Maria thought about it for a while before replying in shock, “Does he intend to tell me the truth in the


    future so I’d like him


    more?


    “I think so.” Athena nodded. “Therefore, almost nothing Dwayne says is true. You can’t trust him.”


    “Wow. Now that you mention it, it’s terrifying Maria patted her chest. “This s***bag is too cu***ng.


    He’s as sly as the viin in the dramas. If you weren’t smart, I would have fallen for his trap. A


    thought urred to her. She said grampily, “I must give Dwayne his money back but I don’t want to


    get him off the cklist.”


    Athena waved her phone. “I just transferred 120 dors to him and blocked him.”


    “Thanks, Maria said gratefully, “I’ll return the 120 dors to you now.”


    Athena smiled. “No need.”


    “No, I must pay you back, Maria said seriously. “Treating, borrowing, giving, and helping are


    different. I should pay you back


    Athena did not insist. She epted the money transferred from Maria and asked, “Aren’t you going


    for a physical

    examination tomorrow? You’ve fallen out with Dwayne now. Are you still going to work at the hair


    salon he introduced you.


    to tomorrow?”


    “I’m not going.” Maria shook her head. “There are jobs everywhere. If I’m not picky, I’ll find a job.”


    Only then did Athena ask about another matter. “Didn’t you submit your drafts to design studiosst


    time? How did that go?”


    Maria sighed dejectedly. “I really don’t have any talent in design. I’ve applied to six or seven studios


    and designpanies, but so far, none of them have replied to me.”


    Athena shook her head and asked, “Do you intend to give up on jewelry design then?”
