It will have a lot of impact in later EP's. Even if by that time the MC has an absolute clean slate, the fuse of the bomb could be lit in EP9. Why?
There will be three crucial people in the Burke apartment and the connection is Mona. EP5 Mona runs away after talking to Stephen Burke. The MC sees this and has his thoughts. In EP8 we learn that Sage still wants to talk to Mona.
These are all situations that we could not influence.
If now Maya, for whatever reason, shows the same reaction as Mona in EP5, the MC could mention the experience with Mona to Sage. The way Sage is on right now, she will intensify her search for Mona. When it comes to a conversation between Sage and Mona, the bomb detonates.
Theory
Tybalt is the son of Stephen and only the stepson of Jade. If this is so, one should come to the conclusion so that the family's fortune is Jade's. Why? Tybalt was not always rich and through the marriage closure of his father, he has become so. Is the blackmail with the failed marriage proposal to Jill just a plan B of Tybalt to secure his future? Who knows. But I am relatively sure about one thing. If Jade finds out, and be it through Sage, the feminist gender studies professor will divorce Stephen. Thus Stephen and his son will then end up in the pit from which they once rose.
