The comments section blew up below the news.
[I've done a comparison using some software, and it's definitely Matthew's girlfriend! Check out these photos—the side profiles are spot on. The ear shape and that red mole behind her ear? Same.]
[This news keeps getting buried. Every time it climbs to the top, it drops right back down. Someone doesn't want this to blow up.]
[Latest update says that two nights ago, Madalyn got a call in the hotel's back garden. Then she put on her hat and left alone, heading towards the Shoreline Shrine. It was drizzling that afternoon, so the surveillance cameras didn't catch her clearly. They only saw her enter a small forest, and she never came out. The deceased was dressed just like Madalyn that day.]
[The police's first conclusion is that the deceased is Madalyn Acevedo. They think she might have committed suicide. What do you think?]
[It's over. If a tourist dies there, and there's no solid evidence of foul play, they will just chalk it up to suicide. Wasn't that how that hotel death case got closed last month?]
The mocking comments kept rolling in. [I told you, the women at the bottom who want to climb up and become a rich lady, it never ends well for them.]
[She was stunning. Wouldn't it have made more sense to find a decent job or marry a guy with just enough cash? Why poke the bear with the Graham family and the Powell family? Now she's gone for nothing.]
Someone chimed in, [Do you think the Graham family or the Powell family had anything to do with this?]
[Word is that Anabel secretly called Madalyn in while Matthew was on a business trip. Madalyn moved out of her apartment the next day, quit her job, and flew overseas to lie low.]
Athena sighed as she scrolled through the comments. Surviving in a wealthy family was no joke.
After thinking for a minute, she shot a message to Matthew. [Did you see the news about Miss Acevedo's "corpse" showing up at Lani Island?]
Matthew replied right away, but his first concern was for her. [How did the surgeries go for your grandparents? Are they okay?]
Athena: [Thanks for asking! The surgeries went well, and they're recovering nicely.]
Matthew: [That's great to hear.]
Then he added: [I think you already figured it out. She's faking her death and making sure the corpse gets discovered to shift the blame onto Anabel.]
Athena: [I'm curious—how did you manage to show her ID and passport without raising any red flags?]
Matthew sent a smiley emoji. [Come on, Miss Donovan, you're smart enough to figure it out.]
Athena: [I bet Madalyn has a twin sister. When she's out there, she is using Madalyn's ID and passport. The real Madalyn is in on it, making sure everything goes smoothly.]
Matthew sent her a thumbs-up. [Not only are you the most beautiful girl I've ever met, but you're also the smartest.]
Athena's heart raced, and she felt her face flush. 'Oh wow, why is he complimenting me out of the blue? I wasn't ready for that!'
She touched her face and grabbed a big glass of water, gulping it down like it would help her cool off.
Matthew didn't seem to notice how he made her feel. He kept messaging. [Her name is Jaylin Acevedo, 20 years old. Her sister is Madalyn, who's four years older. They're not twins, but they look a lot alike. A lot of people think they are. They're about the same height, so Jaylin can easily pass for Madalyn.]
Athena sent an exclamation emoji. [How's the reaction from the Graham family and Powell familiy so far?]
Matthew replied: [No word from the Powell family yet, but people online are starting to think Anabel is behind all this.]
When Athena read that, she felt a thrill of satisfaction. But then she wondered, 'Why do I feel this way? Do I really dislike Anabel? Well, I guess so—she's been pushing Matthew.'
She asked: [Is Anabel's birthday coming up in two days? You really planning to get yourself kidnapped?]
Matthew: [I'm thinking of going to Lani Island to take the body myself. I'll say Madalyn has no family or friends, so I can bury her there. That way, I've got a solid excuse not to go to Anabel's party. Plus, I'll make it look that I got kidnapped there.]
Athena: [Good luck with that! I'm rooting for you!]
Matthew: [Thanks, Miss Donovan.]
Then he asked: [So, what's next for you?]
Athena replied: [I've been in the hospital for a week, and I'm pretty tired. I'm just gonna stay home and sleep like a sloth for the next few days.]
Matthew sent a smile emoji. [Even as a sloth, you're still the cutest, Miss Donovan.]
Athena felt her cheeks heat up. [Thanks for the compliment!]
Matthew shot back another smile emoji. [I'm really happy to hear from you. Gotta get busy now, though. Catch you later.]
Athena: [Later!]
However, after the chat ended, she felt a little lost. 'When exactly will later be?'
"Ugh, I'm definitely happy, but something feels off. What's wrong with me? Maybe I just need a snack. I'll head to the kitchen. Food always helps," she thought.
