When Athena arrived at Joy's door, it was already 11 at night.
Athena calmly knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, and Joy, surprised by the late visit, asked, "What brings you here at this hour? With a smart person, there was no need for subtle or roundabo approaches.

"What do I have to do to make you hand them over?" e wrong place?" Joy stepped aside and gestured inside. "Since you don't believe me, how about searching for them yoursel Athena stared at her for a few more seconds. "Sure, thank you. I'll find them myself." Athena walked past Joy, checking each room one by one.
The place was small enough that a single glance took it all in.
After a brief look around, Athena did not see any trace of Arthur or Alaric, nor any evidence they had been there at all.
Joy stood with her arms crossed, leaning casually against the doorfrof the study. "You've seen the place. Now, you leave." Standing away from Joy with her hands in the pockets of her trench coat, Athena stared at Joy and said, "Since speaking nicely doesn't seem to work, I guess we'll have to make a deal." Joy smirked. "A deal? I don't need anything from you." Athena said calmly, "You seem so confident-relying on your powerful connections, aren't you? But remember, powerful as you may be, this is my territory, and I'm no ordinary local" Joy's expression shifted to mild amusement. "Oh? From your words, you know my background now?" "Of course. The Rose family," Athena replied coolly. They may be powerful, but I've never had a reason to fear anyone-and your standing with them isn't exactly secure, is it?" Joy's eyes narrowed as Athena continued, "If you pushtoo far, I could take this straight to the Rose family. You know the consequences." Joy's expression finally changed when she heard the words "the Rose family.
Her once carefree demeanor vanished, and her elegant face seemed shadowed by a thin veil of darkness.
"What Rose family?" she asked, a trace of irritation in her voice. Do you seriously think you can tripup with a fake story? Athena ignored Joy's attempt to feign ignorance.
Chapter 392 She said, "Your English nis Rosa Jay. Your father is Augustine Rose, and your mother's nis Nellie Lambert. You're one of the reserve members of the Rose family's Council of Elders, still in the evaluation phase Joy's expression grew increasingly darker.
Athena said. "I know a lot more, but I won't say it again unless you hurt my family" Joy's face darkened. "Are you threatening me?" Athena said, "I'm merely stating the facts" Joy said coolly. T'm curious-knowing all of this, how do you sti dare to threaten me?" Athena sneered. "Because I already know who you are, but you don't know anything about me." This sentence obviously caught Joy's attention.
Joy took a deep breath and stood up straight. She looked straight at Athena and asked, "Who exactly are you?" Athena smiled. "I won't tell you. You can investigate, but I advise you not to. Just like I advised others not to investigate you." Joy gave Ailična a long, scrutinizing look and adjusted her glasses. "Do you realize just how dangerous your situation is right now?" Athena was still smiling. I promise that no matter what happens, you will be in a more dangerous situation than m -Joy stared intently at her.
Their eyes met.

"But just now, I thought I heard something upstairs. Perhaps you should go check there." Athena smiled. "Thank you." She turned and walked away.
As she opened the door, Joy's voice sounded from behind her. "Once you find them, make sure to keep an eye on them. If they wander off again, you might really lose them for good." Athena did not turn around. "Thanks for the reminder. I'll keep an eye on them." Joy added coldly, "And remember our deal. With an amount as huge as this, if you break your word, the compensation won't be something you can handle Athena said calmly, "My memory is very good. I hope your memory is as good as mine." With that, she strode out and closed the door behind her.
After climbing up one floor, Athena pushed open the door to the room directly above Joy's and saw Arthur and Alaric lying on a bed.
The two of them seemed to be sleeping well. Their chests were heaving slightly, and they were even snoring softly. Athena walked over and carefully examined their physical signs. She checked their pulses, eyelids, and mouths, confirming Chapter 392 that neither of the tart been poisoned or injured before she falty related 90% Afterward, she spent a few minutes carrying both men downstairs one by one, cuffing them into the car and driving off In the darkness, Joy stood by the window, peeting through the curtains watching Athena's every"I knew she wasn't ordinary Joy murmured.

Joy shook her head slowly. "Sthings are better left unknown for now" Downstairs, Athena's car drove away Her meeting with Joy this twas peaceful. There were no fight or arguments.
However, if anyone heard her conversation with joy, they would definitely be shocked.
