The building was old, with only a few residents, and just two apartments per floor. He didn't run into any neighbors as he made his way down.
When he reached the ground floor, he saw that the entrance was completely packed with people, blocking it so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through.
As soon as they saw him, the crowd erupted in excitement.
"Mr. Donovan, we heard your newly reunited daughter scored a perfect score on this exam—congratulations! When are you throwing the celebration party? Let the neighborhood join in on the festivities!"
"We're reporters from West End TV. Can we get a quick interview with your daughter?"
"Mr. Donovan, have your daughter start a tutoring class for the kids in the community. It'd be great for our local students."
"Come on, Mr. Donovan, we're old pals, right? Get your daughter to take a picture with us so we can hang it up at the supermarket entrance!"
There were also influencers live-streaming on the spot, talking into their cameras. "I'm here outside the home of West End's first-ever top scorer. As you can see, she comes from a humble background—her family's living conditions aren't exactly great..."
"I've heard Athena is drop-dead gorgeous, the prettiest girl ever to attend Kitmore City High School. I hope I can catch a glimpse of her today so everyone can see just how stunning she is..."
"I did some digging and found out Athena's life has been full of twists and turns. When she was born, the hospital caught fire, and the nurse mistakenly handed her to a wealthy family with the last name Kennedy..."
"Wait, you live here, right? Can you tell us what the top scorer's family is like?"
These influencers even began interviewing local residents, eagerly digging for every detail about the Donovan family and Athena, asking intrusive questions like whether she had a boyfriend.
The neighbors were more than willing to talk, spilling everything they knew, with some even embellishing their stories with guesses and wild imagination.
Seeing all this, the pride and joy Wesley had felt over Athena's perfect score quickly evaporated, replaced by a heavy sense of unease.
He thought, 'This isn't a good sign...'
He walked up to the iron gate and called out loudly, "To all the reporters and everyone here, our family is just an ordinary one—there's nothing special about us.
"Athena isn't living at home right now. She's spending her summer break working on a scientific research project and mostly stays at the lab. She rarely comes back, so you won't find her here.
"The weather's scorching—why not head back before you get sunburned?"
But the reporters and influencers only became more excited. "What kind of research is Athena involved in? Where's her lab? Has she mentioned which university or major she plans to apply to?"
Wesley, feeling the headache coming on, replied, "The research is really specialized—I'm not too clear on the details myself..."
The reporters immediately jumped in. "How can you not know where your own daughter is staying or what project she's working on? Do you even care about her? Is there some kind of problem between you two?"
"She's only eighteen and isn't living at home—where could she be staying? We heard she has a car—where did she get the money for that?"
"Is she living with a man and being supported by him?"
