Neil did not take Archie's words to heart. He instructed him, "Help me keep an eye on these two girls. If you discover that they have crossed the line with Matthew, inform me in time."
Anabel had just arrived in Valemont City when the company transferred him to Uroterin. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that someone must be behind this.
Strangely, even the Powell family could not find out who was behind this.
Also, before Anabel went to Uroterin for her assignment, she specially visited Nicolas and Neil, implicitly mentioning that Matthew had a woman he cared about so much. The various rumors he had previously spread might have been to protect her.
All of this caught the attention of the Graham family.
Archie was very happy. "Grandpa, don't worry. Matthew belongs to Anabel only. I won't let him be seduced by another woman."
However, Athena and Joy rarely attended classes and were usually elusive. He seldom saw them, and whenever he sent people to follow them, they often lost them. He had no idea what they were usually busy with.
By the end of September, they had even disappeared.
Joy left Kitmore City to participate in Franco's archaeological activities.
On the other hand, Athena was preparing to leave Kitmore City for a while under the guise of participating in a scientific research project.
Just before her business trip, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived. The family prepared a large table of delicious food, and everyone gathered together to eat, drink, and celebrate the holiday.
Just the thought of not being able to enjoy her mother's fresh dishes once she left made Athena want to eat a month's worth in one go. She stuffed her bag with as many homemade cookies, cured meats, rice dishes, and pickled vegetables as she could.
Strangely, Maria, who usually ate a lot, barely touched her food. She almost didn't eat any meat and didn't even touch the pancakes or cookies.
Athena curiously asked her, "Maria, are you not feeling well? Is that why you're eating so little?"
If that's really the case, she needed to take care of Maria.
Maria shook her head, her eyes fixated on the meat on her plate. "I'm on a diet, so I have to strictly control what I eat."
Athena noticed Maria's eyes were fixed on the meat as she looked her up and down. "You have a bit of extra weight, but it doesn't hurt your health. Why do you want to lose weight?"
Maria sighed and patted the flesh on her belly. "You're all tall, so you don't understand the struggles of being short. I'm less than 5.2 feet tall, but I already weigh 132 pounds. How can I look good?"
She added, "I used to be an intern and didn't think much about it, but now I'm a full-fledged designer. I have to host important guests, go to big events, wear high heels, and put on nice dresses. But with my body shape... I don't look good in high heels and dresses."
She hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Last time, I wore a dress that Louis lent me, and people laughed at me when I went out in it."
"Really? Louis even lent you a dress?" Athena asked, curious. "Are you two close?"
"Athena, don't misunderstand," Maria said, blushing and waving her hand. "I just have Louis's number. We both like watching dramas and reading romance novels, so sometimes we chat. Last time, I had to attend a formal banquet, so I asked him where I could rent a nice dress without it being too expensive. He brought me a dress and said he borrowed it from a relative."
She continued, "The dress was beautiful, but I had eaten a bit too much those days, so it fit a little tight. Plus, my skin was a bit dark, and I couldn't pull off the look. Someone made fun of me to my face, and I... I got a bit upset and decided to go on a diet."
Athena said, "I think your skin tone and body shape are just fine. Does it really bother you that much?"
