In an instant, the ten-day detention of Nidya Hughes and Zora Hughes came to an end, and they were picked up by the Hughes family's car. Upon their return to the Hughes residence, Madam Hughes hugged them both and cried nonstop, while Cory Hughes stood nearby with a gloomy expression on his face.
Nidya complained, "Dad! Zora and I were detained, why didn't any of you do anything? We were in there for a full ten days, and now word might have gotten out."
Cory Hughes's eyes darkened, "Don't worry, I've suppressed the news, so nobody knows about your detention. I've also turned down all invitations involving you both. However, we refused Mrs. Salt's invitation, and the Salt family seems to be unhappy about it, so you and Zora need to pay them a visit and apologize."
"In the recent years, the Salt family's company has been performing well, and they have a partnership with our family. We must obtain Mrs. Salt's forgiveness."
Zora quickly agreed, "I understand, Grandfather."
