@Eue13 Not necessarily inevitable, just that it is a result of the event.

At least in America, we use “consequence” not “consequent”. But we also use “consequently” which means something else.
A consequence is the negative result of something.
For example “the consequence of his actions was going to jail”

You’re welcome. The other person is right, it’s not inevitable, it’s just the result.
