Normally, people would step in to help, but at that moment, everyone else stood by and watched. Christopher still remembered his task and shouted at the people in the pool. "Don't think you're innocent just because you've been deceived. The case of your bullying and snatching the bracelet isn't over yet! Hurry up and pick them up!"
Those people continued their arduous task, too busy to watch the show.
After gathering all the beads, they realized they were still one short. They were frantic, worried that it might have fallen into the water outlet. Some kept diving in to check, anxious and miserable, almost on the verge of tears.
The commotion drew the attention of many onlookers, who gathered around to watch. Isabella and the others didn't want to be the center of attention, deciding to take Janice away to change first. After all, they had done all they could. Christopher stepped forward and pretended to have found the last bead. After intimidating those bullies, he left with the others.
Unbeknownst to them. Cody rushed over to check on Cecilia as soon as they left. He loved her, after all, of course he was pained to see her all beat up. Subsequently, he vented his frustrations by warning those around him. "If any of you dare to blab about what happened today, I'll make you pay!"
In fact, he knew his warning wouldn't work. It was only a matter of time before word of this got out
However, both Cody and Cecilia were well aware that as long as they didn't admit it and the Quirks refrained from making a public announcement, they could still distort the truth. After all, Dylan would never acknowledge Janice as his sister.
Anything else others might say would merely be rumors.
However, they were too naive.
Since Pamela had gone as far as to beat Cecilia up, she had clearly made up her mind to go all out.
Even though she didn't have any concrete evidence, she knew some busybodies might have secretly recorded the whole process.
SO
After returning home, she posted on social media, offering a reward for anyone who could send her the video they recorded. Those who had secretly recorded the whole ordeal dared not publicize it for fear of offending Cody, but they were willing to sell the video to Pamela,
Thus, a scandal that could potentially ruin Cody's reputation was about to wreak havoc on the university's exclusive forum.
Of course, Pamela was well aware that she couldn't afford to offend the Quirks. She also didn't want her embarrassing behavior to be exposed. Therefore, she only selected the segment that revealed the illicit affair between Cody and Cecilia, as well as the backstory of Dylan lying to others about Cecilia being his sister. She even thoughtfully blurred out the faces of Isabella and others.
Meanwhile, Cecilia discussed with Cody, deciding that they would adamantly deny any accusations made against them. Following this, Cecilia made a call to Dylan, who was soon to give a lecture at their school. Over the phone, she tearfully complained about being unfairly targeted and physically assaulted due to
the bracelet incident

When it came to slandering Janice, Cecilia handled it with case. She even took the opportunity to complain about the Quirks. After all, she had keenly noticed that Dylan disliked those relatives of his. Therefore, Cecilia felt no guilt in defaming them, even suggesting that the Quirks were deliberately picking on her because they didn't want to adopt her.
Upon seeing the photo Cecilia sent of herself covered in bruises, Dylan flew into a rage.
He felt that Janice had grown bold, taking advantage of the presence of the other Quirks to deal with him. She's clearly disrespecting me! How can she side with outsiderst
Annoyed, Dylan wanted to call Janice, but no one answered.
At that time, Isabella and Carlos were accompanying Janice to the women's restroom, while Christopher and Rosalie went out to buy clothes for Janice.
When Christopher and Rosalie came back to deliver the clothes to Janice, they overheard Carlos complaining to Eric over the phone.
Carlos was the oldest among the siblings here, afte
all, so he was responsible for handling the situation.
Though Eric was the elder, Carlos showed little regard for propriety, He recounted in detail everything Dylan and Cody had done to Janice. Concluding his account, he said, "Uncle Eric, if we hadn't decided on a whim to come here and happened to run into them, who knows what might have happened to Janice? I had noticed she seemed a bit withdrawn before, but now it all makes sense. She's been bullied, and no one defended her. Uncle Eric, Janice is being mistreated by her own brother and boyfriend-how can stand by and do nothing? If she stays silent, does that mean you choose to ignore it? If your family is too
you just busy, we're happy to help since we're now in Yrinas. Since I'm the eldest brother and have a lot of time on my hands, I'll make sure to look after Janice from now on. It's clear Dylan no longer wants to be her brother anyway."
