She Outshines 190
Chapter 190
“Matthew is here?’ Athena thought. She was stunned for a few seconds before taking the roses
happily, and saying, “Thanks”
Just as she
e was about to call Matthew, a group of ssmates rushed over and surrounded her, remarking
excitedly. “Athena, you yed very well. Your goal is also remarkable. We’re so happy and touched.
You’re our idol.
One of them suggested. “There won’t be any sses for the next few days. Shall we go for supper
together? Our form teacher will join us too.”
Athena thought about it. It was not ten o’clock at night yet. It was good to have dinner with her
ssmates asionally, so she smiled and agreed
And so, Athena was escorted away by her ssmates.
On the other side of the backstage, Joy had just changed into casual clothes and walked out of the
changing room when a young woman in a business suit gave her arge bouquet of blue roses with
a hint of purple.
The woman said respectfully, “This is for you from Mr. Harper. He said your piano ying was very
outstanding and memorable. He wants to treat you to supper near the school. He will send you back
safely before midnight. Pleasee!
The bouquet was big, with at least a hundred roses. Furthermore, they were rare and precious blue
roses and the wrapping was very luxurious. It instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Joy was stunned for a moment before she smiled, “Thank the person who sent the flowers to me,
but I’m allergic to roses. I can’t ept them.” She covered her nose and took a few steps back.
The woman was still smiling. The CEO of ourpany drives a Lamborghini. He’s waiting for you in
the parking lot on the east side. I can take you there.”
“A Lamborghini?” many people whispered with envy in their eyes.
Joy was unmoved. “It’ste. I have to go back and take care of my pets. Please tell your boss not to
waste any effort on me.”
With that, she left.
Many people saw this and gossiped among themselves.
One of them was curious and asked, “I want to go to the parking lot and see if the Lamborghini and
CEO are cool.”
Someone wanted to stir up trouble and deliberately mislead the public. “I heard the girl who handed
the flowers to Athena say the sender was Mr. Graham. The CEO who gave flowers to Joy is also
Mr. Graham. Are they the same man?”
Everyone was curious, remarking. That’s possible. They’re both equally beautiful, and they’re both
straight-A students. If the CEO takes a fancy to one, why can’t he take a fancy to the other?”
Another pointed out, “He’s rich. Isn’t it normal for him to woo two goddesses at the same time?”
At this moment, the student in charge of recording the event suddenly eximed excitedly, “Oh my
god! Come and take a look. I found a seriously handsome guy. He’s more handsome than all the
school hunksbined. It’ll be your loss not to
come take a look
Everyone gathered around.
In the video, a guy sat at the end of the third row in front. When the lights on the stage swept over
hint, his face was clearly outlined in that instant, stunning all the onlookers.

A girl eximed, “Hesreally handsome and ssy. Even the top celebrities in the entertainment
industry are inferior to him without makeup.”
A boy said, “I’m sure there’s no one that handsome in our school He is probably from outside,
right?”
Someone shouted, “I know who he is. He’s the Graham Group’s heir, Matthew Graham. I didn’t
expect him to attend our school’s Independence Day G.”
One of them seemed to have realized something. “He must be here to watch someone perform. I
wonder who’s so lucky to be fancied by him.”
At this point, everyone looked at each other, asking. “Is it Athena or Joy? Both are equally
compatible with him.”
Just like that, the rumor that Matthew might have taken a fancy to Athena, Joy, or even both slowly
spread from that night.
Athena did not know about the rumors. She had supper with her ssmates until almost midnight,
then drove home alone..
It was already half past midnight when she reached the vi. To her surprise, ric was still awake,
ying basketball by the garage alone.
Seeing her return. ric spun the ball with one hand and panted, “Athena, you’re back. I thought
you were already asleep”
“I had supper with my ssmates. It just ended.” Under the streetmp in the front yard, Athena
saw that he was sweating profusely. Even his jersey was wet. She knew he had been ying for a
long time, but she did not stop him
She only said, “Tm going to sleep. What about you? Are you going to bed too?”
ric looked at the phone beside him and eximed, “It’s already sote? I’m heading to bed.
Good night”
Over the next few days, Athena noticed that every night around eleven o’clock, when most of the
family were asleep, ric would go out alone with a basketball and y at the basketball court in
the neighborhood until about one in the morning.
Every morning before dawn, ric would go for a morning run alone. After that, he would y
basketball for a while too before washing up and making breakfast for the family.
Except for Athena, no one in the family knew ric had been forced to give up his dream of
bing a professional basketball yer. ric’s behavior in front of the entire family was normal.
It was as if nothing had happened.
On the fifth day of the holiday, Athena noticed that ric’s injuries were almost healed, so she
asked, “You like to y tennis, right? Let’s y it tomorrow. I’ve already reserved the venue.” Owned by N?velDrama.Org.
“Tennis? Sure.” ric’s eyes immediately lit up. He said excitedly. “Athena, you know how to y
tennis too?”
Athena smiled, “I only know a little. I’m not good at it, but I have arranged for the members of a
tennis club to y with us”
“That’s great. Tennis is my favorite sport,” ric cheered. He was restless to y sports again. “But
my tennis racket is too old. It’s not good. I have to buy a new one.”
“I’ve already prepared everything” Athena put her hands behind her back and smiled, “Tve made a
bet with the opponents that you’ll beat them. You better rest up tonight and make me proud
tomorrow.”
“Don’t worry!” Ataric patted his chest and said boldly, “Athena, since you invited me along, I’ll make
sure to defeat all of them. Otherwise, I’d have let you down.”

The next morning, after the family finished breakfast, Athena drove to the tennis courts with ric
and Josie
ric knew a little about the tennis courts and tennis clubs in Kilmore City. When he arrived, he said
in surprise, “Endover Tennis Club? This is the best tennis club in West End. It’s famous throughout
the country”
ric almost wanted to ask how much it would cost to y here but he remembered Athena was
not short of money. He quickly changed the topic, “It’s the holidays now. Why are there so few
people here?”
Athena smiled. “Many people have gone on vacation, so there are very few people, of course.”
She did not tell ric she had booked all the courts. She also did not inform ric that the yers
she had arranged for him to y against were all professional yers from the club.
Without knowing what was happening, ricpleted his warm-up in high spirits. He held the top-
notch racket that Athena had prepared for him and shouted at his opponents. “Buddy, you can do it.
I won’t go easy on you. Don’t lose too badly.”
The professional yers were speechless. They wondered if ric would still be so confident if he
knew they were professional yers
However, since their sugar daddy had asked them to keep their identities a secret, they could only
give this brat a harsh dose of reality.
