Just as Cecilia Adler had predicted, Ian Quincy went to the Lee family to collect the money after dinner.
He learned from May Sutton that Felix Flynn had been unfaithful and was caught in the act by Vivian Lee. After the scandal erupted, Flora Warren cut all ties with Felix.
As for Felix Flynn, he was fired from his job.
Vivian Lee was dead set on a divorce, but Felix Flynn was adamantly against it.
Right at that moment, Jim Quincy and Lucas Lee finished negotiating the return of the betrothal gifts.
Lucas Lee used the occasion of returning the money to ask Cecilia Adler to step in and force Felix Flynn to agree to the divorce with Vivian Lee.
Unfortunately for them, Cecilia Adler never showed up.
Ian Quincy completely ignored Lucas Lee and his wife's pleas. Once he had the money, he promptly left.
When he got home, he told Cecilia about it.
Cecilia Adler burst out laughing. "Serves them right!" Let the wicked torment the wicked.
