She Outshines 89

Chapter 89 At nine o’clock in the morning. Athena yawned and went to the main building to eat breakfast. The others seemed to hav gone out, leaving only her and Maria. Maria was eating breakfast and talking on her phone. She did not even notice Athena had entered. “Dwayne, are you really going to introduce me to a job?” Maria was surprised and touched. “I think it’s great to work at a b salon. I can get in touch with many tasteful and fashionable customers and improve my design skills. I’m not afraid of hardship. I am willing to do anything to learn and earn some money. Okay, thanks, Dwayne. You don’t have to pick me up. I’ll go out after breakfast. It’s a deal. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.” Athena thought. Dwayne is already making a move so early in the morning? Even donkeys aren’t as diligent as him.” Since that was the case, she had to be more efficient. After Maria finished the call, Athena smiled and said, “Maria, I have nothing to do today. I’ll drive you to the interview and go shopping after Maria was pleasantly surprised. “Really? It won’t be troublesome for you, right?” “It’s no trouble.” Athena smiled, “After breakfast, I’ll change my clothes and go out with you.” Someone like Dwayne had to know a lot about luxury brands. Therefore, Athena changed into a top-notch branded dress, shoes, bag, and so on. She also put on light makeup, a low-key necklace, and a luxury watch before driving Maria out Maria looked at Athena in surprise. “Athena, you’re wearing the latest style from luxury brands today, right?” After saying that, Maria ad ded embarrassedly, I often look at fashion to improve my lousy design kills. I thought your clothes looked very familiar, so I asked.” “High-quality imitation.” Athena winked at Maria mysteriously. Don’t tell anyone.” Maria exclaimed in surprise and nodded vigorously. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret.” At the same time, Maria was secretly relieved. She would be worried otherwise as Athena was only© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

18 years old and was still student but somehow could afford luxury clothing that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. At 10:30 am, they arrived at a bustling commercial street. It was not far from where Maria used to work. Dwayne had arrived long ago and was waiting there with two glasses of fruit tea. The moment Dwayne saw Athena, he was so stunned that his eyes almost popped out. His gaze was glued to her, and he could barely look away. However, he quickly controlled his lust and greeted them kindly. “Maria, Athena. These two glasses of fruit tea are for you. I just bought them and haven’t touched them.” Athena sensed that Dwayne was constantly stealing glances at her, probably analyzing which brands her outfit came from, how much they were worth, and how much money she had. Maria did not have such keen observation skills, but she could tell Dwayne would look at Athena occasionally. She immediately hugged Athena’s shoulder proudly. “Dwayne, isn’t my sister stunning? She looks like a fairy and is really nice.” Dwayne felt guilty for a moment, and started sweating. “Yes. You always said Athena is good, so I couldn’t help but look at her. You didn’t exaggerate Athena pursed her lips and smiled, “It’s almost time for Maria’s interview, right? Let’s go. It’s better to be early than late.” G. Chapter 89 Dwayne handed Athena glass of fruit tea. “I’ll bring Maria for the interview. Athena, this fruit tea is for you,” Athena shook her head. “No, you can have it. I’m busy so I’m gonna go.” 273% Athena was really busy. There were still a lot of decisions she had to make at Vission Group. It was Dwayne’s honor that she was willing to take the time to deal with him. At four o’clock in the afternoon. Athena was busy working when she received Dwayne’s iMessage. Dwayne sent a smiling emoji and texted: [Athena, Maria passed the interview and learned how to

wash and blow-dry. Everyone at the hair salon praised her for doing them well.] Athena smiled and replied: [Dwayne, you are so good to Maria Do you like her?] Dwayne responded with another smiling emoji and texted: [Maria is diligent and kind. Of course, I like her. But don’t worry, I only treat her like a sister. I don’t ever think of dating her. Athena smiled. [What kind of girl do you like, Dwayne? Maria said you are very popular with girls and female clients.] Dwayne sem a “shy” emoji. [No, it’s all a misunderstanding. I treat my clients and everyone around me the same. Because I am an excellent hairstylist, I’m serious and responsible to everyone. I will never date my clients. Clients of both genders like mel After that, Dwayne sent an emoji of him covering his face and added: [My family was poor so I couldn’t afford tuition after getting into Kitmore University. I could only come out to work early. Now that I can afford a house, I’m prepared to open my own styling studio. But I still hope to study in university, so I’ve been studying myself. I also hope to find a well- educated girlfriend who can make up for my shortcomings.] Athena: [Dwayne, you can do it. You will definitely find someone like that.] Dwayne. [Thanks, Athena. Maria is treating me to a thank-you meal tonight. Why don’t you join us?] Athena: (I have another appointment. I’m not going.] After that, Dwayne sent her a few more messages, but she didn’t reply to any of them. Soon after Athena rejected Dwayne, she received a call from Matthew. Matthew’s voice was as polite as ever. “Miss Donovan, I had wanted to look you up in a few days. However, I’ve encountered some technical difficulties and want to ask you for help. Let me know if it’s convenient for you” Athena’s ears heated up when she heard Matthew’s magnetic and sexy voice. “S-Sure. Are you coming to look for me?” “Yes, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.” Matthew’s voice was tinged with amusement. “I’ll take the helicopter to Kitmore City after work. I should be able to arrive before six in the evening. Is there anything you want to eat or can’t cat?” Athena thought for a moment. The weather is hot. Let’s not eat anything that’s too flavorful. It’s best

if it’s unique. Also, it’d be nice if the environment is quieter. Matthew said, “Alright, got it. I’ll pick you up when I get to Kitmore City.” Athena replied, “Alright, I’ll wait for your… news.” Matthew was smiling. “Miss Donovan, goodbye.” Athena touched her burning cheek. “Goodbye” Seconds ticked by. There was silence on the phone. Neither of them hung up. Chapter 89 Finally, Matthew said, “My secretary told me that when I call a go, I must let her hang up first. Otherwise, it will be rude Athena laughed out loud. “Alright, I’ll hang up first, Goodbye.” After that, she hung up the phone and stood up. She paced before the floor-to-ceiling window and even ate a small cake. Then, she patted her face and sat in front of the computer. “Come on, let’s try to finish today’s work by six so I can go on a date. She paused and corrected, “Go out for a meal” At six o’clock in the evening. Athena drove to the restaurant where Matthew had booked. She looked up at the sign on the wooden door. It read “Orion Signature Stone Barbecue”, “What a special name. I don’t think I’ve ever eaten anything like this,” Athena spoke to herself. Someone came up beside her. “I’ve eaten here a few times. It quite nice.” Athena turned to look at the newcomer. She pursed her lips and smiled. “You made it here so quickly.” Matthew had wanted to pick Athena up after arriving at Kitmore City. However, Athena felt that since she had a car, there was no need for him to make a detour, so she drove. “Yeah. I hope I didn’t make you wait too long. Miss Donovan Matthew looked at Athena and held his breath. Athena was wearing light makeup. Her hair was done up in a cute bun today. She wore a pink chiffon print dress and high heels. She looked sweet and girlish, like a fruit that had just ripened and smelled of temptation.

Matthew wondered if she had dressed up for him.
