Chapter 204 The Entire Family Absorbed In Gossip. +5 Pearls

Isabella: Dakota's family faced an unexpected crisis and desperately needed money. She tried borrowing from others but hit a dead end. With no other options, she reluctantly asked Josiah for help, hoping it might mend their relationship if he came through and revealed the truth. But Josiah's response blindsided her. He accused her of lying and demanded she come clean, leaving Dakota hurt and shocked. Even though she insisted she was telling him the truth, Josiah still stormed off in anger.

The Quirks were dumbfounded. He didn't believe her? What was there not to believe? The audacity of him to accuse her of lying when he was the one who deceived her! Did he react that way out of guilt, trying to deflect blame onto her despite knowing he was at fault? Isabella: Josiah's an idiot. But that's not all to the story; there's still Audrey in the picture!

The Quirk family: What? What did she do?

Isabella: After setting the initial trap, Audrey expected Dakota to confront Josiah on the spot. To her surprise, not only did Dakota remain quiet during the reunion, but she also disappeared without a trace afterward. Even more unexpectedly, Josiah informed his family that he would bring his girlfriend along to the gathering. The turn of events left Audrey feeling unsettled. She wasn't sure if Dakota knew the truth, but she had to do something about it. After a brief investigation, she discovered that Dakota had been borrowing money from various sources. So, she decided to talk to Jariah...

The Quirks listened intently, their nerves on edge. What did she tell him? Spill the tea!

Isabella: Audrey told Josiah that his efforts were pointless because his true identity wasn't a secret. She suggested that Dakota might discover his background if she investigated further. Audrey also hinted that Dakota might have known Josiah's identity all along but pretended not to mind his financial situation to deceive his feelings, possibly with the intention of marrying him.

The Quirks: Argh, she knew exactly what to say to sow discord between them!

Isabella: At first, Josiah didn't buy her story, but Audrey persisted in hinting for him to uncover Dakota's true intentions on his own. She also cautioned him that Dakota might intentionally act dependent in front of him, only to exploit the opportunity to ask for money later. Dmn, she's really good at setting traps for others!

The Quirk family couldn't believe it. Who would have imagined that beneath the glamorous facade of that socialite lay a woman adept at such cunning tactics?

Though Alexander and Audrey were classmates in the past, his impression of her had completely changed.

He simply couldn't understand how Josiah could fall so easily into Audrey's trap and misunderstand. Dakota, especially when he claimed to have genuine feelings for her. Meanwhile, the rest of the Quirk family was still eagerly awaiting more gossip.

It was at this point that Isabella had also spotted the most crucial part. Initially, Dakota had borrowed money from others. When Josiah found out, he recalled what Audrey had told him. Naturally, he didn't immediately believe her words, fer questioning Dakota about her reasons, he discreetly sent people to investigate. However, they found no evidence of the Meadows family borrowing money from various sources.

Upon hearing the unexpected twist of events, the Quirks were stunned. Was it all a sham? Did Dakota's family deceive her?
