Chapter 483

“Claire, what’s wrong?” Wesley rushed over and helped Claire up. He said worriedly, “It’s so late. Why aren’t you asleep? Are you feeling unwell? Athena, quickly take a look at your mother…

“I–I’m fine…” Claire’s eyes were swollen. She grabbed Wesley’s arm tightly and said, “I–I was just worried about you. I couldn’t sleep, so I waited for you to come back…”

The family looked at each other and fell silent.

The rims of Claire’s eyes were red with crying.

Also, although Wesley said he was fine and it was just a false alarm and Athena told everyone not to worry, they vaguely felt something big was happening since Wesley suddenly went to the construction site tonight, Athena disappeared in the middle of the night and suddenly updated the ending titled “Extermination“.

Athena’s mother should have felt it too….

“I’m fine.” Only Wesley was focused on the construction site and did not realize the abnormality tonight. He helped his wife

should go back to sleep…” to the sofa, poured her a glass of water, and comforted her. “You guys

However, Claire shook her head and put the cup aside. She grabbed Athena’s arm and looked at her with pleading eyes like a drowning person grabbing a small boat. She asked with a trembling voice, “Athena… Is Lara’s ending … the same as in novels…”

The Donovan family’s people sighed in their hearts.

As expected, Claire heard it and must have finished reading the story written by Lockwood.

were trending topics and discussed repeatedly. M

After all, this novel and this case people in Donovan’s Restaurant talked about them, and their words surely reached Claire’s ears.

Athena knew it must be hard for Claire.

After a moment of silence, Athena said, “Mom, in my eyes, Lara did not leave the house because she hated it. She just saw something that attracted her and chased after it instinctively.

“It’s like, children refuse to return when hanging out with their playmates of them. She even hides so that no one can find her.”

no matter how hard their parents call. Lara is one

Athena thought for a moment and made another analogy. “You can see Lara as an internet addict who is inumersed in the game world and has no interest in the real world.

“For her, the game world is full of excitement, challenge, and fun. It makes her forget about home.

“If someone tries to get her off her internet addiction and back into the real world, she might see them as enemies.

The others lapsed into silence when hearing this.

Athena’s analogy was strange, but they felt better after hearing it

Claire was also stunned. Her eyes lit up slightly as she asked, “La… didn’t leave her family because she felt her family was poor and didn’t treat hier well?”

This was the biggest worry of the Donovan family

The thought of this possibility was killing thei

“Absolutely not.” Athena shook her head. “For a person like her, things like money, power, and status are bonuses after th game is completed. She did not challenge difficult games for bonuses, but to pursue the pleasure, sense of accomplishm

and satisfaction.”

Athena thought for a moment and continued, “If Lara was born in the past, she would be a fierce and ambitious person, carving herself a place in history.

“Compared to a peaceful era, she might prefer a chaotic world where talents appear in large numbers and it’s easy to ma contributions.”

At this point, Athena let out a long sigh. “It’s just that her success comes at the cost of the sacrifice of others.

“Her family became the biggest and earliest victims.”

The Donovan family’s people all fell silent.

They had to admit that what Athena said made sense. It was very much in line with their impression and understanding Zilvia.

However, Zilvia had lived with them for five years, but they were far from knowing Zilvia as well as Athena.

Claire lowered her head and did not speak for a long time.

The Donovan family did not dare to imagine her feelings, nor did they dare to speak rashly.

After a while, Claire looked up at Athena and asked, “Athena, do you think… Zilvia will come back?”

After a moment of silence, Athena shook her head. “I don’t know”

Claire’s eyes

flashed with sadness.

“However,” Athena added, “there is a possibility that one day, she will find the outside world boring after seeing and going through everything or reaching the end of the world.”

“The human heart is the most complicated thing,” she said seriously. “I think anything is possible.”

At this point, Athena squatted down in front of Claire and held her hand. “Mom, although Zilvia doesn’t have many feeling I believe it’s precisely because she got enough love and positive influence in this family when she was young that she doesn’ become a bad person.”

It was just like Athena. If she hadn’t been loved and taught by her grandmother as a child and then met the wise, tolerant, and benevolent mentor, she would probably have ended up like Zilvia and even worse.

At the very least, Joy never killed others and would probably not become a great demon who was a threat to the world When Claire heard this, she raised her hand to wipe her tears. Her sad eyes slowly became gentle.

She raised her hand and gently touched Athena’s face. “Athena, tell me the truth. Has Zilvia… been well all these years?”

Athena smiled. “Living in the Rose family is not easy. Climbing to a high position in this family is as hard as getting into Harvard.

“Well, Zilvia must be enjoying it. Competition and killing that ordinary people avoid are all fun for her.”

The Donovan family was lost for words.

Zilvia’s inner world was indeed different from theirs.

No wonder they could never enter the world of Zilvia

“I see…” Claire mumbled softly, letting her tears blur her face. “That’s great. She’s doing well… There’s nothing better than

this…

“It doesn’t matter if she comes back or not, as long as she’s fine… fine…”

For so many years, every time they thought of the various dangers, tortures, and injuries that Zilvia might encounter and the possibility of her death, they could wake up from nightmares in pain and fear.
