Chapter 402 Caught Red Handed.
Hence, Janice spoke up. âShe detests me because she likes Cody.â
This remark caused Pamelaâs face to flush with embarrassment. Codyâs face darkened, too.
âJanice!â
His yelling startled Carlos. He hadnât 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!â
Codyâs expression changed in an instant, but he didnât dare to retort Carlos. All he could do was say in a cold voice. âJanice, itâgh 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?â
Cecilia interjected, âExactly, Janice. You canât spread rumors about others like this. Let this go after the braceletâs beads are found. Stop saying anything else.â
Isabella chuckled lightly, addressing Pamela, âYouâre deliberately picking on Janice because sheâs Codyâs girlfriend, arenât you? I think you might have some vision problems. Maybe you should consider visiting an ophthalmologist later.â
Pamela was left speechless by Isabellaâs remark and was just about to flare up in anger when she saw Isabella subtly move away, pointing in Cody and Ceciliaâs direction. âAnyone who isnât blind can see who Cody truly cherishes. Perhaps youâre targeting the wrong person. Itâs so pathetic that youâre so pleased with yourself for being used as a pawn. They think youâre a fool.
Isabellaâs 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 soâcalled 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 Ceciliaâs 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.
âWhat nonsense are you talking about?â
âHow could you accuse me? How could I possibly do something like that? Janice and I are good friends. Iâm notâ¦â Ceciliaâs eyes reddened. It seemed as if she was on the verge of tears.
âYouâre nothing more than a mistress! How shameless. Rosalie rarely argued with others, but she couldnât stand it any longer. âWe saw everything when we arrived!â
Having had enough, Carlos spoke up. He didnât have any proof, so he had been hesitant to say anything. but now he didnât care. âYou two were kissing in the grave just now, werenât you? We werenât blind!â
Mon, Chapter 402 Caught Red Handed.
The more Carlos thought about it, the angrier he got. He should have caught them redâhanded 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 didnât 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 Janiceâs boyfriend.
At that moment, both Cody and Cecilia were genuinely stunned. They hadnât 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 couldnât 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 Janiceâs hand and trying to explain, âI didnât. 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.â
Now wasnât 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. Codyâs explanation was now the only thing that could resolve this.
