This remark caused Pamela's face to flush with embarrassment. Cody's face darkened, too. "Janice!"
His yelling startled Carlos. He hadn't expected that even in such a situation, Cody would dare to bellow at Janice so brazenly. His expression instantly turned icy What gives you the right to yell at Janice? It seems I need to have a serious talk with your family about your manners!"
Cody's expression changed in an instant, but he didn't dare to retort Carlos. All he could do was say in a cold voice. "Janice, it'gh to prove your innocence. Do you really need to create such a scene? What are you doing right now? Spreading rumors? What happened to you?"
Cecilia interjected, "Exactly, Janice. You can't spread rumors about others like this. Let this go after the bracelet's beads are found. Stop saying anything else."
Isabella chuckled lightly, addressing Pamela, "You're deliberately picking on Janice because she's Cody's girlfriend, aren't you? I think you might have some vision problems. Maybe you should consider visiting an ophthalmologist later."
Pamela was left speechless by Isabella's remark and was just about to flare up in anger when she saw Isabella subtly move away, pointing in Cody and Cecilia's direction. "Anyone who isn't blind can see who Cody truly cherishes. Perhaps you're targeting the wrong person. It's so pathetic that you're so pleased with yourself for being used as a pawn. They think you're a fool.
Isabella's shocking revelation and the fact that Cecilia and Cody were standing so close together, with Cecilia seemingly seeking refuge behind Cody, caused fealization to dawn upon Pamela.
Janice, the so-called girlfriend of Cody, was standing opposite them instead.
In an instant, everything became clear.
Those who were gathering the beads froze, their gazes fixed in Cody and Cecilia's direction as if struck by realization.
Janice, who had vaguely sensed something off, finally confirmed her suspicions. It turned out she was too involved to see the truth, while others could instantly see it.
She truly was a fool.
At this point, Cody and Cecilia, who were exposed, could no longer maintain their composure. They widened their eyes with anger.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"How could you accuse me? How could I possibly do something like that? Janice and I are good friends. I'm not..." Cecilia's eyes reddened. It seemed as if she was on the verge of tears. "You're nothing more than a mistress! How shameless. Rosalie rarely argued with others, but she couldn't stand it any longer. "We saw everything when we arrived!"
Having had enough, Carlos spoke up. He didn't have any proof, so he had been hesitant to say anything. but now he didn't care. "You two were kissing in the grave just now, weren't you? We weren't blind!"

The more Carlos thought about it, the angrier he got. He should have caught them red-handed back in the grove. However, at that time, he had only seen their side profiles. Although he had attended a few high-profile gatherings and had seen Cody a few times, they were not in the same age group and had never interacted, so he didn't recognize him at first.
It was only after seeing his face clearly that he recognized Cody. He wondered why Eric allowed a sc*m like him to be Janice's boyfriend.
At that moment, both Cody and Cecilia were genuinely stunned. They hadn't anticipated that what they did had been witnessed. No wonder the Quirks behaved in such a way. Did Janice find out, too? Is that why she treated me like that? Subconsciously, Cody felt that Janice was deeply in love with him and couldn't bear to part with him, only acting that way because she was hurt..
Moreover, he remembered that there was no one around just now, and even if someone saw them, they were quite a distance away. Thus, he took a couple of steps forward, reaching out to take Janice's hand and trying to explain, "I didn't. I was indeed with Cecilia just now, but we were only discussing your bracelet. Cecilia happened to trip, and I merely helped her up. It must have been a misunderstanding."
Now wasn't the time to reveal his connection with Cecilia. He was determined to keep it under wraps.
Cecilia understood the gravity of the situation. If someone else had seen them, they would have been able to try and deny it. But the people who had seen them were the Quirks. There was simply no way for them to argue their way out. Cody's explanation was now the only thing that could resolve this.
