Brittany kept thinking about what Jon said earlier.

If it wasn't the Sullivan family, then who? Among the people we know, they're the most formidable. Recalling how terrified Jon was when he saw Harold, along with the things that happened in the office a few days ago, she couldn't help but think of another possibility. Could it be Harold? Does he have another powerful identity that I'm not aware of?

She wanted to send a WhatsApp message to Harold and ask about everything. Before that, though, she tapped into her Instagram and saw the comment he had left on her post yesterday. He had commented: “Sleep well. Everything will be fine tomorrow.”

Repeating this line silently, again and again, the scene of all those people crowding the entrance of her house this morning to apologize flashed across her mind.

After connecting the pieces of information together, she came to a conclusion that she herself didn't dare to believe.

It was only ten o'clock at night when Brittany returned home.

“Brittany, weren't you on a date with Jon? Why are you back so early?” Mandy asked in surprise.


Richard and Gordon, too, were looking confused.

They thought Brittany would surely spend at least a night in the hotel with Jon.

They didn't expect her to be back so soon as it was only just past ten.

“Don't ever bring up that pervert Jon to me again. The one who secretly helped us out of trouble wasn't even the Sullivan family. That guy was trying to take the credit, and I almost lost my virginity!” she explained to her family in an enraged tone.

“What? It wasn't them? Then who?” Mandy asked in shock. She was the first to react after hearing her daughter's grumbles.

The day after Jon visited them, the problem they were facing was dealt with.

Moreover, that such bigwigs had come over to personally apologize had even brought up the standing of the Xenos family in the community.

Earlier, some of their neighbors even dropped by their house, trying to curry favor with them.

Of all the people they knew, only the Sullivan family had the power to turn the situation around. To Mandy, there was no doubt that it was them who helped the Xenoses. Yet, after coming back from her date with Jon, Brittany is now saying it wasn't the Sullivan family?

After hesitating for a while, Brittany blurted out her guess, “It... might have been Harold who helped us this time.”
