Chapter 7 Amelia's act of scolding her like she was all high and mighty annoyed Janice greatly. She didn't want to take it lying down. "That's between us. Ms. Burnett is an outsider."

"Nothing to do with this?" Helena asked. She continued, "You're the outsider. Now, everyone knows that Simon married Amy."

Helena loathed Janice. "We don't need you here. Leave right now!"

"Mom," said Simon.

Helena turned away furiously.

"Everyone, leave."

Amelia frowned and reminded him, "Simon, your wounds."

"Everyone, get out!" Simon was getting pissed. No one dared to piss him off.

While Sarah was leaving, she bumped into Janice intentionally. As Amelia left, she whispered, "Janice, tonight

I'm going to accompany Simon to a business gala. My apologies, as I'll be attending as Mrs. Fitzgerald."

Simon glared at her. "Janice, you're getting braver by the minute. You're doing everything I loathe. "Ever since you entered the room, you argued with Amelia but didn't show any concern about my wounds. How could that be?"

Janice found him hilarious. "I've changed? How about you? Have you ever considered how I would feel to see Amelia by your side? When did you stop giving a damn about how I felt?"
