Lucy was incredibly famous. When she was making waves in the business world, Zoe was just a kid in elementary school, far removed from that level of influence. If the private detective hadn't pointed it out, Zoe wouldn't have noticed anything unusual about the photo.
After recovering from her shock, she immediately went online to investigate Lucy. However, the information on her was sparse. The few remaining articles only discussed how powerful Lucy had once been and how the Graham family, along with the board of the Graham Group, had forced her to step down from management. In the end, she went overseas and never appeared in public again.
Zoe spent more time searching, but all she found were snippets of gossip. Some said that Lucy had died in a car accident, and Matthew had covered it up. Others claimed she had undergone plastic surgery, changed her name, and was secretly married with children, living an ordinary life abroad.
There were even rumors that Matthew had fallen out with her and imprisoned her, isolating her from the outside world. In short, no one had seen Lucy in five years, though Matthew maintained that she was living well abroad and didn't wish to be disturbed.
The more Zoe read, the more confused she became. 'How on earth did Athena get involved with Lucy? Could Matthew have introduced Athena to his sister shortly after they met?' she thought, feeling a pang of jealousy.
"That's Impossible," Zoe muttered to herself, shaking her head. "Matthew is far too picky. His marriage will definitely be decided by his family. Even if he's taken a liking to Athena, there's no way he'd introduce her to his family so easily. I need to calm down..."
Recalling the other name the private investigator had mentioned, she did another search online and was once again taken aback.
Dr. Annie was hailed as a titan in the medical field, the most brilliant and mysterious surgeon in the world. She had successfully performed surgeries of the highest difficulty and earned the title "Death's Nemesis."
However, no one knew what she looked like or where she came from. They only knew she was a young woman, and whenever she appeared, she wore a mask and glasses, deliberately concealing her face.
Her only public contact was an email address. Anyone who wished to reach her had to send an email, but she seldom responded and rarely accepted cases. Despite the desperation of politicians, celebrities, and the wealthy to pay exorbitant fees for her consultations, their emails were often met with silence.
In the medical world, they had a saying: "What's harder than a head transplant? Getting in touch with Dr. Annie."
Zoe was in awe, her mind filled with more questions. 'What is Athena's relationship with Dr. Annie? And what is Dr. Annie's connection to Lucy?' she wondered.
As she pieced the clues together, a thought crossed her mind. 'Since Dr. Annie is such a renowned doctor, anyone who reached out to her would likely require medical help. Is Athena suffering from a terminal illness?' She almost hoped that was the case—but somehow, it didn't seem likely.
'If it wasn't Athena who's terminally ill, then, could it be... Lucy?' Zoe thought, the possibility slowly dawning on her. 'Could Matthew be trying to enlist Dr. Annie's help while also introducing Athena to his sister before it was too late?'
It seemed like a wild theory, but not entirely impossible. Nevertheless, Zoe was at a loss on how to investigate the matter. With her status, position, and resources, she had no hope of prying into the lives of such prominent figures as Lucy and Dr. Annie.
Zoe was so wrapped up in her thoughts that time flew by, and before she knew it, it was already past midnight. Frustrated, she turned off her computer, flopped onto her bed, and closed her eyes, her mind still churning.
At dawn, she opened her eyes groggily and stared at the ceiling for a long time. Slowly, a devious smile crept onto her lips. 'Why should I care about how they're connected? I could spin the story however I want,' she thought slyly. 'If the rumors got out, surely someone more powerful would look into it. All I have to do is sit back and watch the drama unfold.'
With a plan in mind, Zoe sprang out of bed, grabbed her tablet, and began searching for Matthew and Lucy's enemies within their family.
