Jonathan’s priority was maintaining the partnership. It didn’t matter who took over the role, as long as the work got done. Cody’s family didn’t need to be in charge, especially if they risked further offending the Quirks. Jonathan understood that any additional missteps would only backfire on them, so he was 

determined to put an end to the matter here and now. 

To Stanley, this new arrangement felt like being stripped of his authority, akin to a crown prince losing his throne in ancient times. Devastated, he left Jonathan’s oflice with a heavy heart and immediately called Cody, unleashing his fury. 

Cody, who was comforting Cecilia, turned deathly pale upon receiving his father’s call. He had grown accustomed to ignoring Janice that he forgot the matter of their breakup could potentially reach his father’s cars. 

After all, when the two of them were together, they never discussed their families‘ affairs. Over time, Cody had forgotten just how many advantages he had gained due to his status as Janice’s boyfriend. 

“Are you out of your f*cking mind? How could you do something so reckless? If you wanted a mistress, the least you could have done was keep Janice happy. Who the hell do you think you are, manipulating her like that? How did I not see how foolish you were? And now, you’re still fantasizing about being the heir? Keep dreaming. You’ve dragged me into this mess, and if our family goes under, it’ll all be on you! Get back home now!” 

Cody barely had time to respond before his father slammed down the phone, cutting him off mid- thought 

He hurled his phone onto the floor, incensed. “I can’t believe she tattled! Just how ruthless can she be? She slapped me and now…” 

Cecilia read the message Dylan sent her and trembled with anger, too. Janice never complained, but now, she seemed to have grown a backbone. 

Thankfully, Dylan was still on her side. 

Cecilia, tears streaming down her face, clutched onto Cody’s sleeve and cried out, “How can she do this? She obviously loves you! How can she ruin you just because she can’t have you?” 

Cody, clenching his teeth, hissed, “I underestimated her! She thinks she can turn the tables on me like this? I was planning to get her back, to keep using her a little longer, but not anymore. I want to see if she really has the nerve to let me go. She’s clearly obsessed with me and completely dependent on me. If she doesn’t come crawling back, begging for my forgiveness, or have her father smooth things over with us, I definitely won’t forgive her!” 

Cecilia’s gaze shifted slightly. Even though she knew Cody wouldn’t openly acknowledge her anytime soon and that she shouldn’t rush to make their relationship public, especially while she was still deceiving Dylan, she couldn’t shake the deep unease gnawing at her. 

Having dealt with the Simmons family, Eric received a video from Alexander of her daughter being bullied. Using that video, he was able to identify the bullies and deal with them accordingly. 

Upon seeing his daughter standing drenched in the water, he hit the roof again. 

He was deeply grateful for what Isabella and the others had done for Janice. Since he wasn’t busy in the afternoon he decided to nick Janice un anlourive to her sincerely and treat everyone to a meal

Feeling better, Janice led everyone to the campus food market, eagerly recommending her favorite delicacies. 

Her eyes were swollen, resembling walnuts–evidence of the good cry she likely had during her shower. But now, her smile was genuine and clear, a sign that part of her had moved on. While it would be a stretch to say she had fully recovered from the trauma, she clearly found a renewed sense of courage and was determined not to let herself be downcast any longer. 

After finishing their dessert, Carlos asked, “Where to next? Are we still touring the campus in the afternoon?”
