Chapter 96
Leon saw Jamar's Twitter post and couldn't help but call him. Meanwhile, Jamar had been scrolling through Twitter, hoping Phoebe would reply. After all, he had previously noticed Phoebe responding to Erika.
When Jamar saw the incoming call, he answered right away. "Leon, why are you calling me?"
Leon's voice sounded extremely displeased. "Are you out of your mind? Did you really go ahead and post something like that on Twitter?"

Jamar felt wronged. โDefnโt M Mori say witโฆโ
โYouโre seriously out of line, coming to yell at me like this. You must be crazy,โ Jamar snapped back, taken aback.
Leon paused for a moment, realizing that Phoebe had been right to criticize Jamar during the livestream. โThis guy really has lost his mind, Leon.โ
โVisi fool,โ Iron said. โDo you have any idea how your Twitter post affects Sienna and Reece?โ
Jarnar replied nonchalantly. โThey sa post too, right? All of us are on the same show. Canโt we just make one post rach? Doing that would help rase things with Pherbs: Whatโs wrong with that?โ

โWant to post? What then?โ Leon pressed. โYouโve put them in a bind, and you actually think youโre right?โ
Jamar responded angrily. โYouโre the brainless one! If you hadnโt been so ruthless, Pheebs wouldnโt be this upset with us. I just wanted to unaoth things over with her. I donโt think I did anything wrong.โ
โIf Samina and Hever donโt want to post, then let them skip it. Whatโs so complicated about that?โ he added.
โSometimes I just canโt serap my head around why you all think so many convoluted thoughts,โ Jamar said. โIsnโt it better to be straightforward!?โ
If you want, and if you donโt then donโt. Thatโs all, Jamar wondered.

Chapter 96
Meanwhile, Sienna was at home, itching to yell at Jamar. However, she had to hold back her anger toโฆ Instead, she simmered in silence, maintaining her considerate image as a sister.
After thinking it over, she decided to message Reece and ask if he wanted to post something on Twitter. Reece replied with a curt message: [Donโt make things awkward for yourself.]
Afterwards, Sienna sent a couple more messages in an attempt to chat, but Reece didnโt respond.
As time passed without a reply, Sienna felt increasingly uncomfortable. So, she intentionally messaged Ophelia, asking if Reece was busy and why he hadnโt responded to her. Sienna expressed concern for him.
In the Hill residence, Reece noticed Siennaโs new message but had no desire to reply. Frustrated, he tossed his phone aside and picked up a bottle of wine, pouring himself a drink.
Reece was not surprised by Phoebeโs rejection of Maddox and her decision to start her own studio. After all, he knew she had always been independent and self-sufficient, which was one of the qualities he admired about her.
Reece genuinely wished he could be with Phoebe at that moment, celebrating the opening of her new studio, but he understood she wouldnโt pay him any attention.
Recently, Reece had tried to reach out to her, but all his attempts had failed. Phoebe hung up the moment she recognized his voice.
Unlike Jamar, Reece wouldnโt stoop to making foolish Twitter posts that would only drive Phoebe further away. He felt both agitated and distressed, unsure how to help Phoebe move past their past issues so they could reconcile.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. Reece called out, โCome in.โ
Ophelia pushed the door open and stepped inside, finding Reece sitting on the floor, looking despondent as he drank. She frowned slightly. โWhat are you doing to yourself!โ
Reece glanced at his wine glass and muttered, โNothing much, just feeling down.โ
Ophelia noticed his state and frowned deeper. โIs this about the stuff online or abour Phoebe!โ
Reece didnโt answer; instead, he looked up and asked, โWhatโs up?โ
Ophelia pressed on. โSienna texted you. Why didnโt you respond! What happened to your manners? Isnโt this how I taught you to behave!โ
Reece was already annoyed, and with the alcohol affecting him, he suddenly smashed his wine glass to the floor, startling Ophelia. Before she could scold him, Reece spoke up first, his eyes red with frustration. โSienna Sienna! Does it seem like an outsider is more important to you than your own son? When have you ever raised me? I was raised by Grandpa.โ

Ophelia was taken aback by the fierceness in Reeceโs voice, especially since he was contradicting her wishes. โWhat kind of spell has Phoebe cast on you? How can she compare to Sienna?โ
All look bad, you still think about her? Ophelia was visibly upset, fuming as she exclaimed. โAnd after all the trouble she caused online, making you all look bad, โYouโre being so foolish!โ
โWhatโs so special about Phoebe?โ she wondered. Ophelia couldnโt understand why Reece was so infatuated with Phoebe. In Opheliaโs mind, she couldnโt allow Reece to disregard her wishes.
Ophelia was determined that Reece wouldnโt end up like Brenda, always going against herโฆ
