She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 475

Lucas was the loudest, but he might not have been the most affected or agitated,

The ones truly shaken were likely Isaac and his family.

Since discovering that Athena was the powerful figure behind Vission Group, Isaac and his wife glared at her with burning anger and hatred in their eyes.

"She's such an ungrateful kid!" Regina said with a deep hatred for Athena, "We raised her for eighteen years, gave everything, yet she destroyed our family's business and hid such an important identity from us!"

her

She initially kept her thoughts to herself, but the shock made her blurt out, "I was wondering why Vission Group would give us the exclusive agency ten years ago. Turns out this ungrateful girl wanted to live a good life. That's why Vission Group gave us some benefits so she could enjoy the good life at our expense

"But she's selfish and greedy, hiding the truth about being the real owner of Vission Group, and playing the Kennedy family like fools! She's truly despicable! In my entire life, I've never seen such a deceitful, cunning, vicious, and heartless person!" she spat out in fury. Isaac was also filled with grief and anger. "According to the timeline, when Vission Group moved into West End, she should have been the actual owner of Vission Group! At that time, she had just graduated from elementary school.

"Her assets and enterprises should have been managed by her guardian, which means Vission Group should have belonged to us!"

He went on, "Who would have thought that at such a young age, she could be so cunning and deliberately hide such important information, causing us to miss out on such a huge company and wealth

The more Regina listened, the more hatred she felt. She almost wanted to rush out of the corner, push through the crowd, and confront Athena, publicly accusing her of being despicable, selfish, and greedy, then demanding that Athena return Vission Group to them. At the very least, she wanted a portion of Vission Group's shares to ensure their position in the company. But she didn't dare.

With so many important figures present, if she disrespected them, the Kennedy family might be begging on the streets by tomorrow

Sitting beside them, Andrew said, "Mom, Dad, Vission Group should have been ours! Athena took away our wealth!"

He clutched Regina's arm, shaking it. "We really need the money! No matter what, you raised Athena for 18 years and have done her a great favor. Go and reconcile with her. She can't completely disregard us. Tell her that Gia and I will treat her as a dear sister, no, a dear older sister. We'll listen to everything she says.

The Kennedy family invested hundreds of millions of dollars into that piece of land in the east of the city, all in cash.

By the end of last year, the first phase of luxury villas was ready for sale. But suddenly, the real estate market crashed. Overnight, people either couldn't afford to buy houses or lost interest in buying. Many properties couldn't be sold, and a lot of small real estate companies went bankrupt or stopped construction.

"Even the real estate giant, Regalia Property, faced financial difficulties, mass layoffs, unfinished projects, and near bankruptcy.

The Kennedy family was not spared either. Their heavily invested properties couldn't be sold, funds couldn't be recovered, and the banks were demanding repayment.

Despite this, the Kennedy family still fantasized that the real estate industry would soon recover and that the current

ensure that th

difficulties were only temporary. So, they sold a large amount assets to raise cash and ensure projects could continue.

the construction

However, after more than half a year, the real estate industry became even more sluggish. More and more real estate companies went bankrupt, and more projects were left unfinished. It became increasingly difficult to sell the Kennedy family's properties. The Kennedy family was facing financial difficulties.

Regina looked at his son with heartache. "We still want to acknowledge her as our daughter, but she's so heartless I'm afraid she won't give us face...

Then let's beg her together!" Andrew said. "She's the boss of a big company, she cares about her image. She won't just watch us kneel...

The three of them discussed the matter, fantasizing about the dream of accepting Athena as their daughter again. Only Gia watched them with a cold expression.

She said inwardly, 'Why are the Kennedy family members so foolish? Is she really their child? Look who Athena is now. Why should she show any respect to the Kennedy family?"

If Athena didn't give a face to the Kennedy family, nothing they could do for her.

If the Kennedy family had any dignity, they should stay far away from Athena and the Donovan family, and stop humiliating themselves.

If the Kennedy family were smart enough, they should apologize to Athena, try to please her and the Donovan family, and ask for her help.

Unfortunately, the Kennedy family did not do all of these.

She closed her eyes, thinking about her current situation where she was disliked by everyone and had fallen to a third-rate status in the industry, She thought to herself that perhaps it was time to find another way out.

The fact that the Harper family and the Kennedy family could still call each other by name indicated that they had not yet reached their most painful point.

The most heartbroken people were often those who couldn't even cry.

It was exactly Zoc.

She covered her face with both hands, her eyes tightly shut, refusing to look at anyone or let anyone see her expression.

If one asked her how she felt, she'd say she wanted to die.

When Matthew proposed to Athena in public, she was jealous and hurt but still held onto a tiny bit of hope. She thought that even if they got engaged, they might break up one day, and her loss wouldn't feel so terrible. But now, knowing that Athena was the big boss of Vission Group, she understood the gap between them was like heaven and earth.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't even reach Athena's shadow on the ground,

She was no longer in the mood to compare or retaliate. She only felt regret.

She regretted spending so much time and energy comparing himself to Athena. It was like a cat foolishly trying to compete with a tiger, only to exhaust itself for nothing. Athena had ignored her for so many years because she was not worthy of being Athena's opponent.

Chapter 475

Even if Athena just stood there and did nothing, Zoe would still be defeated....

Tears flowed out from between her fingers.

She couldn't stay here any longer.

She bowed, covered her face, and silently crawled out of the crowd.

Next to Zoe stood Sebastian, with other Randolph family members beside him.

When the Randolphs watched the Donovan family sitting at the front, chatting and laughing, surrounded by countless cameras, their hearts were filled with bitterness.

They could have been in-laws with the Donovan family, but now it was all ruined.

In just eight years, the Donovan family, once beneath them, had become unreachable.

Sebastian turned to look at his side and realized that Zoe was no longer there. He sent her a WhatsApp message. [Where are you? The performance is almost over, and the banquet is about to start. Hurry back.] After quite a while, he finally received Zoe's reply. [Let's break up. Don't contact me anymore.]

Sebastian almost exploded in anger. He replied. [What do you mean? The Randolph family has helped the Murray family a lot and invested so much money. Now you want to cut ties?"

But the message couldn't be sent because Zoe had blocked his WhatsApp number.

"How dare she block me?" Sebastian was furious and immediately called her, but his number was completely blocked by her

In his anger, he called Jarred, ready to scold the entire Murray family.

On the other side, Mason was reprimanding his daughter in a tone filled with disappointment. "Back then, it's true that the family forced you to break up with Brandon, but if you loved him so much, why couldn't you hold on until the end?"

He continued, "The family dotes on you so much. If you had really stood your ground and resisted, would the family have truly forced you? You knew how exceptional Brandon was

"You just had to wait a few years, and he would have succeeded. Why were you so weak then? Great achievers have unwavering determination and never look back, no matter the pressure"

Laney covered her face, tears in her eyes and pain in her heart.

Her family had forced her to break up with Brandon But, they blamed her for the breakup. Now, they asked her to reconcile with him.

In the end, it was all her fault.

Her father's voice kept echoing in her ears. "Try to get Brandon back, no matter what it takes, even if you have to be his secret lover! The Randolph family is on the brink. If you can't get Brandon back, you'll have to marry someone else." She laughed softly, raised her tearful eyes, and said, "Fine, I'll go to Brandon and beg him to come back to me..."

Her hands trembled as she took out her phone, pressing the buttons shakily.

She booked a flight to Uronerin for tomorrow.

Tonight, after having one last dinner with her family, she would quietly pack her things, leave the house, and depart from this place.
