Chapter 411 Standing Up For Janice +5 Pearls
He turned his to look at Alexander, saying, "Recently, the Simmons family has expressed interest in collaborating with us... I can't let them treat my daughter this way."
After all. Alexander was the head of the family. If he decided to retaliate, the impact would be significant. Therefore. Eric had to inform him. If Alexander or anyone else was against it, he was prepared to make amends, doing whatever it took to avenge his daughter. How dare that scoundrel play my daughter like a fiddle? This is unforgivable! I must stand up for my daughter!
Alexander nodded and said, "We can't let someone of our family be taken advantage of, but there's no need to end the partnership. You can get in touch with the current head of the Simmons family. We can continue the cooperation, but not with Cody's family. If they want to work with us, they need to change their representative. We will never work with anyone from their line. This is to stand up for Janice."
Eric was dumbfounded, while the others were filled with admiration.
What's the point of ending the collaboration when it would only lead to a lose-lose situation? The Simmons family might even unite against us, and Cody won't learn his lesson. I remember the reason Cody was groomed as an heir was because he had the potential to establish a marital alliance with our family. The Simmons family is vast and fraught with intense rivalries. For now, Cody's father has the upper hand, largely due to his son, who is accomplished but also has
to onnections with the Quirk family. If that connection is gone, the others in the Simmons family won't hesita seize the opportunity and corner Cody and his father. Moreover, Cody isn't the only son of his father. Given the enormity of the pressure and the losses incurred due to his son's mistakes, it's only obvious how far he'll go to punish his son. One can only imagine how miserable Cody will be in the Simmons residence in the future.
Alexander was determined to make Cody realize that he couldn't get away with manipulating and taking advantage of Janice. Since he dared to bully Janice, he should be prepared to face severe consequences.
This essentially served as a public announcement. The elite circles of Yrinas perceived Janice as ant inconspicuous figure. However, their decision to stand up for Janice this time was a clear message to all. Despite Janice's easygoing and gentle nature, the Quirk family was her everlasting support. Anyone who wished to court her or date her should tread carefully. Any slight against Janice would not be tolerated.
By doing that, Alexander essentially laid out the path ahead for Janice.
Eric instantly understood and was taken aback-he hadn't expected Alexander to do that for a relative he wasn't that close with.
The elders had once worried that Alexander was too cold and distant, but now they were relieved to see a softer side of him. It became clear that he was compassionate, even if he rarely showed it. When Alexander revealed this side of himself, the younger generation of the Quirk family saw him as true pillar of support. As they watched him, they were filled with admiration and deeply moved by his kindness.
Without wasting any time, Eric called Jonathan Simmons, the head of the Simmons family. He didn't mince words, immediately demanding that they replace their current representative or face the termination of all partnerships between their families. Eric laid out the details, explaining how Cody had not only been unfaithful but had also manipulated Janice for over a year. Such behavior was intolerable to the Quirk family. Eric made it clear that if the Simmons family didn't agree to the change, they would be forced to find a new company to collaborate with.
Though Jonathan was no pushover, he did not hesitate to comply after hearing the full story, considering Alexander's recent arrival and how furious Eric was. Chapter 411 Standing Up For Janice
+5 Pearls
He had originally planned to hold an engagement ceremony for Cody while Alexander was around, aiming to build a rapport with this promising future leader. However, this scandal thwarted his plans, leaving him seething with anger toward his good-for-nothing descendant.
He promised, "Don't worry. We'll make sure Cody answers to Janice."
"Both our families have been friends for ages. That's the only reason why the partnership isn't terminated. Cody doesn't need to answer to Janice. Just make sure he and his mistress stay away from Janice!" Eric stated without mincing his words. Jonathan had no choice but to humble himself and apologize. Upon ending the call, he immediately summoned Cody's father and gave him a thorough scolding.
Stanley's face flushed with embarrassment as he cursed his son internally.
He intended to apologize to Eric, but Jonathan quickly intervened. "The fact that they contacted me directly means they didn't think it was worth their time to deal with you. No matter how low-profile their daughter may be, that doesn't give Cody the right to treat her like that. The Quirk family is different from
-
they're a tight-knit clan and fiercely protective of their own. You need to discipline your son properly. If he causes any more scandals, our family won't be able to handle the fallout. We'll offer an apology on behalf of the entire family later. You don't need to worry about it anymore."
