She Stuns the World - Chapter 407: Chapter 407

Athena stopped talking about Maggie's case and asked one last question, "Do you hate Nicolas?"
She felt that Matthew would be filled with hatred.
After all, Matthew had never acknowledged Nicolas as his dad or father in front of Athena.
Matthew did not answer the question directly. He revealed a cold and slightly strange smile. He said, "Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. He is no exception."
Then, Matthew gently put down Athena's hand and poured a glass of milk for her. He changed the topic. He asked, "How have the past few days been for you since you returned?"
He did not ask Athena what she had been busy with for the past month.
If Athena didn't wish to speak about it, Matthew wouldn't pry into it.
Athena tilted her head slightly and revealed a happy smile. She said, "I was being followed. The person following me is my brother, Brandon."
She briefly explained how she had reunited with Brandon, but did not mention that Brandon had been robbed and was currently working in food delivery service. She said that he needed time to sort out his feelings and planned to travel for a few days before returning home.
When Matthew heard this, he began to think about how he could help move things along.
It was said that Brandon was the smartest, most ambitious and success-hungry of the five Donovan brothers, which made Matthew's expectations of Brandon high.
Matthew tried to put himself in Athena's shoes. He thought, 'What does she expect of him?'
Of course, she would hope that Brandon would become famous overnight and lead the Donovan family to new heights.
After having dinner with Athena, Matthew told Louis about Brandon and asked, "Do you know what to do?"
Louis was aware of the basic information of everyone in the Donovan family. This included which school Brandon studied in Aeloria, what his major was, the year he was in, and so on.
Louis answered in high spirits, "I do. I'll find someone tonight."
The next afternoon, when Brandon was delivering coffee to an office building, he met his senior who used to major in computer science at Kitmore University.
Brandon had a good relationship with this senior when they were in university. They were very happy to see each other, and the senior insisted on treating Brandon to coffee.
During their conversation, the senior said that he was a manager at an international company and was looking for talents like Brandon, a professional who was proficient in Maiselish and had studied abroad. The senior offered Brandon to work at his company as a senior technician with an annual salary of 200 thousand dollars.
If anyone else were to get this job offer, they would definitely be very happy and would probably agree to it immediately.
However, the first thing that came to Brandon's mind was something else.
He thought, 'Everyone else in the Donovan family hit a jackpot in some aspect recently. Am I the next one to get this ridiculously good luck? Is Athena secretly helping me?'
Brandon contemplated for a moment and shook his head. He declined the offer, saying, "Thank you for the generous offer. However, I've just returned to the country. Everything here has changed. I need time to adapt to my new environment. I don't want to work a corporate job for the time being. My current delivery job allows me to come in contact with different people, so I can collect the data needed for running artificial intelligence."
The senior thought Brandon rejecting the offer was such a waste. He said, "I know how capable you are, so I will keep the position open for you."
After Brandon left, the senior called Louis.
Louis was quite surprised when he received news that Brandon had rejected the job offer. He then told Mr. Graham.
Louis reported, "Brandon would rather deliver food than go back to the Donovan family and accept a high-paying job. I think something else is going on. In addition, I keep feeling that him returning to Kitmore City now is odd."
He then asked, "Do you want me to investigate what he has experienced in Aeloria and what he's up to now?"
Matthew contemplated for a few seconds before shaking his head and said, "Miss Donovan must have figured out this as well. I think she must have some plans for Brandon. We shouldn't investigate Brandon and interfere in Miss Donovan's plan."
Louis nodded and gave Matthew a thumbs up. He praised, "You're so thoughtful."
Matthew glanced at him coldly. He said, "Although it's inappropriate for us to investigate Brandon, I don't have time to wait for him to slowly make a name for himself. He needs to have achieved something by the end of this year."
He analyzed, "Someone like him definitely prefers starting a business over working for others. He probably doesn't want to rely on his family's money to start a business. So, he needs investors and partners."
Matthew asked, "Do you know what to do?"
Behind his lenses, Louis's eyes shone with admiration and enthusiasm.
He interlocked his fingers and placed them on his chest. He praised generously, "Mr. Graham, you're amazing. I love you!"
Matthew's mouth twitched. He commanded, "Get lost!"
In the evening, Brandon returned to the old residence, cold and fatigued.
The moment he opened the door, the lights in the room suddenly lit up. He was stunned when he saw Athena sitting by the coffee table.
