Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 1301:

Joseph had stepped in at just the right moment. If he managed to scatter the crowd now, Damon could spin any excuse later without much resistance. Given time, folks would likely convince themselves Damon couldn’t possibly have lost. The event would slip quietly into the fog of forgotten things. And just like that, the McCoy family’s honor would stay polished and untarnished.
