The point here is avoid to create an environment where one of the kid feels outside the family and this could bring this situation. But hey, this is what I would do with the step kid living with me if I would like to crate a family/equal bond with them.
it’s not just the first step toward a relationship of lies and cheating… he already lied and cheated. It’s up to you if you decide to stay or not but I would definitely leave. This was calculated and incredibly selfish of him, and he only came clean because one of the girls he cheated with sent you the evidence.

Have you asked her if everything is OK?
I should also add we’ve had this conversation before, I had a nicer reaction but was still offended. This time around I wasn’t happy.
