I'm so sorry for the lateness of this review, the holiday season was busy for me, and I honestly didn't see this updated.
Yes....yes YES ok, this chapter did fufill a lot of my desires for Nick.
He's finally FINALLY breaking through the Cassie-delusion he held, and realizing what a fucking asshole she is.
Jenny, she seems like a breath of fresh air. And a genuinely kind soul that Nick can connect with.
I'm saying it now, divorce the cunt (aka Cassie...I have many insulting names for her I call her in my head when reading this), and get together with Jenny.
Jenny who seems like a decent person, who is willing to explore Nick's abilities without judgement or condescension.
And Nick needs some positive relationships in his life.
I loved Jennie's reaction to learning Cassie lied, like yes!! Turn the tides, form a mob on Cassie and chase her out of town.
I really really really want to write my own little (pun intended) revenge fic on Cassie!! She deserves to suffer, she deserves no empathy or kindness (unlike Nick who does)
Cutting off my review here as I don't want to go super Rant mode!
But this is the first chapter in some time that ended with me happy, like genuinly happy for Nick and his prospects with Jenny.
Author's Response:
Well, as I said in another review response, I never expected Jenny’s character to go past the mailbox conversation, but I realized that there were some story arcs and character development I could do with not only her own character, but with Nick’s as well. In retrospect, I kind of wished I’d included her in a few earlier chapters; there certainly could have been some “fun” and “interesting” tiny encounters with her...
I’m glad you liked Jenny’s reaction to Nick’s story. The Conversation between her and Nick was the hardest part of this chapter to write: it had to hit certain plot points, but also had to flow smoothly and seem believable. I certainly hope it was.

Well I can't wait to see if Jenny is sincere or if this is a set up to see if he he's going to be faithful. Hope he gets some good footplay before the end! Very interesting turn of events!
Author's Response:
To be perfectly honest, Jenny is as sincere as they come. Her character was always going to be in the story initially, But I hadn’t planned on her going anywhere past the mailbox scene. Due to the animosity towards Cassie’s character, and Other comments and reviews I received, I decided to expand her character a bit. I had always planned for Nick to come back to his and Cassie’s apartment in the middle of the night, but Jenny wasn’t supposed to be there, initially. I kind of developed a plan for her, and I hope you like how it turns out.
