"Think whatever you want. I... have a clear conscience. Biting the bullet, he said, "If you don't believe me then maybe we should just break up."
Cecilia, naturally, was filled with resentment. She had hoped Cody would openly acknowledge their relationship to at least salvage her some dignity, but she was left disappointed. She knew that Cody wante to think things through before dealing with the situation, especially since the incident had occurred so suddenly. They could only temporarily retre
and think of a way to respond.
However, the moment Cody said that, Isabella and the others laughed out loud.
Their mocking laughter was essentially like slaps to their faces.
Cody turned around to leave when he heard Janice's voice. "Hold on."
His heart skipped a beat as he assumed Janice still loved him and couldn't bear to let him go.
As soon as he turned around, however, a harsh slap landed on his face.
Initially taken aback by the sudden blow that knocked his head sideways, Cody was soon consumed by rage. He turned around, only to see Janice, who was usually subservient and compliant, raising her other hand. Without hesitation, she slapped Cecilia, who was standing next to him.
Cecilia was taken aback. She was usually the one who bullied Janice, and Janice never retaliated.
Though she had once accused Janice of hitting her, Janice had never touched her.
Cody was stunned by Janice's actions, and before he could react, a second slap landed on his face.
Cecilia, poised to lash out, was taken aback by the second slap on Cody's face, and Janice, taking advantage of her distraction, saw an opportunity to slap her a second time, too.
The sound of the slaps drowned out all the chatter around them.
Everyone stared at Janice, who was usually a pushover, in shock.
Janice almost never resorted to violence, and after hurling four slaps in total, she was panting heavily.
Isabella shook her head and tutted. "How is that enough?"
Janice, with tears in her eyes, took a deep breath and felt much better.
"How dare you hit me!" Cody finally snapped back to his senses, so furious that he was ready to lunge at Janice.
Cecilia, too, covered her face and glared daggers at Janice.
Janice wore a stern expression. "Why can't I slap you when you've been horrible to me? If you dare bully. me again, I'll make you pay!"
She subconsciously thought of relying on herself, for no one was on her side.
"You're our sister. You don't need to do anything." Carles approached with a smile. Before Cody could

punch. Shaking his hand to relieve the pain, he said, "How audacious of you to bully our sister."

"If we let our sister fight her own battles when she's being bullied, we're practically useless." Following that indirect insult, Christopher didn't even wait for Cody's pain to register before he swiftly kicked him in the stomach.
This time, Cody was sent flying.
He was dumbfounded. Looking up, he saw the two brothers positioning themselves in front of Janice, as if to say, "How dare you bully our baby sister? You think two slaps are enough to punish you? We're the Quirks of Yrinas. We don't need to think twice before beating you up."
Dylan had given him the illusion that there wouldn't be any consequences for bullying Janice.
Cody didn't dare resist at all. He knew deep down that if he offended the Quirks, his parents would tear him apart.
Cecilia, too, didn't expect someone to defend Janice.
She guiltily retreated, wanting to escape.
Though Christopher and Carlos never hit women, and Rosalie was not one to resort to physical violence, Isabella, on the other hand, was itching to slap Cecilia.
However, Pamela didn't give Isabella a chance to do so. True to her word, she rushed forward, knocking Cecilia off balance with a hard slap before pinning her down and relentlessly slapping her continuously.
Cecilia's cheeks swelled severely, and she screamed and struggled to fight back, only to get beaten up more severely.
