On the day Athena went to school, freshmen surrounded her.
Many freshmen rushed to take photos with her. She stood under the tree with a smile and let them
line up to take photos with her. However, she kept a distance from them and refused physical
contact.
Joy was also the same. Joy also responded to them in a cordial and friendly manner. Everyone
praised her for being beautiful, talented, and super good-natured.
Athena heard others discussing Joy. “Joy is so amazing. She passed all the junior year exams with
a high score and was directly promoted to the next grade. I’ve never seen such a talented person!”
“She’s really hardworking. During the two months of summer vacation, she participated in two
archaeological activities. One was in the desert, and the other was in the deep mountains and
forests. She carried her luggage alone and neverined about being tired, nor did she drag
anyone down. She knows a lot. The professors in the faculty praised her.”
“These two archaeological events cost a lot of money. I heard that most of the funds were provided
by Joy. Her money came from her sry and schrship. Don’t you think it’s amazing?”
Athena’s eyes flickered when she heard that.
Joy was in such a hurry to enter her senior year and was so passionate about archaeology. Is she
really passionate about archaeology, or does she have another motive?’ Athena thought.
There was an unwritten reward for the Department of History. The most outstanding student in the
senior year would be rmended by the faculty to go archeology with Franco.
This reward was very attractive. Almost all the students yearned for this opportunity. From this
perspective, Joy was qualified.
A few days after school started, Franco received a call from Kitmore University’s head of the
Department of History. “The faculty has unanimously agreed that the most outstanding student in
our department is Joy. Joy’s greatest dream is to follow your team to archaeology. I wonder if she
has the chance?”
Athena said in a low voice, “Since her results are the best and the faculty thinks so, of course,
there’s no problem.”
The head of the Department of History was very happy. “Thank you, Franco. When are you free to
teach them a ss?” Athena recalled that she had never given sses in the Department of History
during thest school year. She said apologetically, “This Friday. I’ll teach online and exin how I
analyze ancient words and patterns.”
The head of the Department of History was very happy and said, “That’s great. We’re all looking
forward to your sses.” After ending the call, Athena touched her face and sighed. “Why am I so
busy at 19 years old? I’m so busy that I don’t even have time for a date…” she said to herself.
She opened herputer and clicked the news page, ready to scan the news before she officially
got to work.
Then, she saw this hashtag, [Nics celebrated the illegitimate child’s birthday. Then they were
rushed to the hospital because of food poisoning.]
Why was Nics poisoned again? Why didn’t he die?’ she thought.
Curious, she quickly scanned the news.
The content of the news was roughly thatst night when Nics was celebrating his 20th birthday
for his illegitimate son, Archie, the people attending the banquet vomited and had diarrhea. They
were delirious and were urgently sent to the

hospital.
The hospital confirmed that they had taken an overdose ofxatives and sleeping pills.

Most of them have been treated and have been discharged today. Only Nics was more seriously
ill and was still in the hospital.
Athena thought for a moment and called Matthew. She asked curiously, “I saw on the news that
Nics was poisoned again. What exactly is going on?”
Of course, she did not care about Nics at all. She was just curious. Who was it that poisoned
Nics with strange medicine time and time again?
Matthew sounded in a good mood. “Yesterday was Archie’s 20th birthday. Archie’s request was to
bring his mother to the Graham family’s main residence for a birthday party. And Nics agreed.”
Athena was speechless. “Farrah is still in the Graham family, right? If she is, isn’t Nics publicly
embarrassing Farrah by letting his illegitimate son and lover have a meal at his house?”
Matthew said, “He didn’t mean to embarrass Farrah. He just doted on Archie and felt that it was a
small matter.
“Archie is his youngest child. He looks like Nics the most, and his personality is also like him.
He’s also a sweet talker and knows how to make Nics happy.
“Archie and his mother hated Farrah. They would go against Farrah whenever they had the chance.
This time, they deliberately embarrassed Farrah.”
Athena sighed. In terms of how sc***ag a man could be, Nics was probably the most in the
world.
Unfortunately, this s***bag lived a happy life.
She asked, “What’s his condition this time?”
Matthew said, “Nics has prepared a birthday party in the Graham family’s main residence. Other
than Archie and his mother, there are also Adele, Joesburg, Nics’s personal driver, assistant,
doctor, and other trusted aides. There are a total of 12 people.
“They ate for about an hour. One after another, they showed symptoms of difort, vomiting,
diarrhea, fatigue, and so on. So all of them were sent to the hospital, and the doctor found the
ingredients ofxatives and sleeping pills in their
vomit.”
Athena said, “Do you think the drug was targeted at Nics or Archie and his mother?”
Matthew was silent for a few seconds. “It’s possible.”
Athena thought so too. ‘Nics’s actions really made his family hate him. Archie’s actions also
attracted the hatred of the Graham family people, she thought.
She asked, “I’m a little interested in the case. Do you have anything you can tell me or give me a
clue?”
Matthew said, “While Nics was recuperating at home, Archie and his mother came to visit many
times, but they were blocked by Farrah and her daughter. The conflict between them escted.
Nics was also very dissatisfied with Farrah.
“Archie inherited Nics’s lustful character. He often went out to flirt with the Graham family’s maids
and even spent the whole night outside. Farrah fired a few maids because of this. And these maids
often fought for Archie’s affection.
“Nics can’t stand Farrah’s noise. He ns to bring Archie and his mother to the beach for a
vacation in a few days. After this incident, Nics can’t go then.”

Athena listened silently and wrote down all this information. “How’s Adele? Does she need me to
take a look at her?” she asked.

“No need.” Matthew said, “Although she was also hospitalized, she didn’t eat much and wasn’t
affected much. She just needs to have a good rest.”
Athena asked again, “Does the Graham family n to investigate this matter?”
Matthew said, “Nics hired a few private detectives to investigate. However, there are too many
people with motives and opportunities to do it. I don’t think they can find the mastermind. As for me,
of course, I don’t care.”
Athena nodded and said, “I see. If you need Dr. Annie or Lockwood, please contact me at any time.”
Matthew smiled and said, “If Nics is poisoned to death next time, I will.”
Athena smiled secretly and ended the call.
She was getting more and more interested in the various things that had happened in the Graham
family. N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
She felt that she must find the mastermind behind the fall of Maggie and the frequent poisoning of
Nics.
After some thought, she opened a huge folder, which was sent to her by Louis.
It was filled with detailed information about Matthew’s investigation of Maggie’s murder for more
than ten years.
She had spent a few days scanning through these contents and did not find any obvious problems.
She was not surprised by this result. After all, Matthew had already investigated very carefully and
thoroughly. If there were still obvious loopholes, he would be considered too useless.
All she could do now was try to look for possible and inconspicuous suspicious points from the
perspective of a spectator.
She dug out the investigation content of the people around Maggie.
They included Nics, Adele, and Maggie’s old friends, rtives, drivers, maids, butlers, private
doctors,wyers, and so on.
There was also a detailed report of Maggie’s whereabouts three months before the ident.
Athena read very carefully and very quickly.
