Andrew joined in, mocking Athena, "Are you bitter because my parents didn't give you enough when they sent you back to the Donovan family? Is that why you're holding a grudge?"
The crowd was shocked, thinking, 'Whoa, Athena just walked in, and the Kennedy family is already attacking her? After raising her for 18 years, they're talking to her like she's an enemy. And wait, did Athena really hook up with someone rich?'
Athena smiled calmly. "Mrs. Kennedy, you've got it all wrong. Everything I've done has been to help you and your biological children.
"If your own kids can't even measure up to me, and I still treated you as my adoptive parents, wouldn't they worry that I might steal your affection—or even your inheritance? How could they sleep at night?
"For the sake of your family's happiness, it's only right that I cut ties with you.
"Besides, my biological parents are better than you in every way. I need to focus on being a good daughter to them—I simply don't have the time or energy to deal with you."
The crowd was buzzing with excitement.
They thought, 'Athena isn't holding back at all, hitting the Kennedy family where it hurts! This is getting intense.' Everyone was eager to see what would happen next.
The only ones thrilled by this were the Donovan family. All their anger and frustration seemed to melt away at that moment.
"Stop flattering yourself!" Regina snapped, slamming the table. "What makes you think you're better than my Andrew and Gia? You're just jealous of them!"
"Jealous? Of what?" Athena smirked, touching her face. "Are Andrew and Gia so hideous that they don't even dare show their faces?"
She knew exactly why Andrew and Gia were keeping their faces hidden.
Andrew was the lead in a popular drama that was currently airing. If he showed his face here, the students would swarm him, completely ruining Zoe's carefully laid plans.
As for Gia, she was vain and pretentious, probably trying to maintain an air of mystery for some grand reveal later.
Andrew and Gia were seething, their faces nearly twisted with rage.
Andrew slammed the table and stood up. "Athena, my parents raised you for 18 years. When they sent you back to the Donovan family, they even gave you a three-bedroom apartment, but you turned it down because it was too old.
"Fine, you didn't want it. But you took the opportunity to steal my mom's favorite Vission Group's diamond ring. Don't you have any shame?
"Is this the kind of dirty gene that runs in the Donovan family?"
The room fell into stunned silence. The way people looked at Athena now was filled with contempt.
They thought, 'She looks so refined and pure, yet she's being accused of stealing her adoptive mother's diamond ring? If this is true, it's beyond despicable.'
"You... you're lying!" Claire couldn't bear to see Athena being accused of theft in front of everyone. She stood up, her eyes red with emotion. "Athena would never do something like that! You're framing her!"
Wesley also stood up, holding Claire's hand. "You owe Athena an apology right now, or we won't let this go."
"Framing her?" Andrew sneered and turned to Regina. "Mom, give me that ring."
Regina shot Athena a venomous glare before taking off the red diamond ring from her finger and handing it to Andrew.
Andrew held up the ring for everyone to see. "Everyone, take a look. This is the Vission Group's Diamond Ring my mom bought just two months ago. It's worth 2 million dollars. It's a new design by Miss Yonder, and it's the only one of its kind in the world—extremely valuable."
The crowd buzzed with excitement, their eyes filled with awe and envy as they stared at the ring.
Yonder's designs were incredibly rare, with artistic and collectible value far beyond their market price.
Owning a ring like this would be a prized possession, whether worn or kept as an investment.
