Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 17
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Aiken couldnât help but secretly give Becky a thumbs up behind Roryâs back.
Seeing this, Becky couldnât help but chuckle. âIs there anything else, Mr. Casper?â
With the way Becky spoke to him, it was as though she wasnât the one who provoked him just now.
Glancing at her indifferently, Rory didnât say a word and turned around to leave.
âDid anyone force him to watch our performance? Everyone thought we were awesome, but he doesnât know how to appreciate real music. He should just donate his eyes and ears to the blind and deaf!â Jessie complained in a low voice after Rory left.
Aiken also felt that Rory had spoiled all the fun, but after some hesitation, he hurried to follow him. After all, they were best friends and had known each other for more than twenty years.
But before he left, he said to Becky, âI like rock and roll, too. How about we talk about music some time?â
Jessie rolled her eyes and said, âBecky and you are worlds apart. You wouldnât be able to understand her.â
These words sounded familiar to Aiken. After thinking about it for a while, he realized that these were the very same words the rich ladies had said to Becky at a party before.
Although he didnât add any fuel to the flame at the time, he just watched and did nothing, which meant that he had turned a blind eye to the bullying.
Now that Jessie insulted him with those very words, Aiken touched his nose awkwardly and muttered, âIâll go then.â
Becky didnât say anything. She didnât have time for that.
Moreover, Aiken was on Roryâs side, so Becky didnât even want to say a word to him.
Before leaving, Aiken couldnât help but look back at Becky. She was still chatting with her friends, and the handsome lead singer got her another drink.
Wow, what a considerate boyfriend!
Aiken tore his gaze away and hurried to catch up with Rory.
By then, Rory had already walked out of ONE. Aiken had to jog to catch up to him. âYou left so quickly.â
Rory glanced at him indifferently and said nothing.
Aiken smiled and commented lightly, âBeckyâs boyfriend is very considerate to her.â
Rory frowned and recalled the man who had handed Becky some tissue.
His black eyes clouded over. He opened the car door and asked in a low voice, âAnything else?â
âDonât you want to stay and have a drink?â Aiken suggested.
But Rory slammed the car door in his face and drove away without even giving an answer.
Standing on the side of the road and watching as the black car sped away, Aiken couldnât help but sigh.
He wondered if Rory just went out for a joy-ride tonight. That was impossible!
After all, Rory had come after learning that Becky was here with her new boyfriend.
It seemed as though Rory still had feelings for Becky.
Aiken clicked his tongue and was about to turn around to look for Becky. However, after taking two steps, he decided against it.
Judging from her attitude earlier, Becky didnât seem to like him.
Rory really regretted coming to ONE. It was all Aikenâs fault. Aiken just wanted him to admit that he still had feelings for Becky.
Feelings?
Choosing to marry Becky was a decision out of sheer convenience. He needed a wife at the time, and Becky just so happened to be there.
But after three years of marriage, did he really not develop any feelings for her?
Thinking of the gentleman standing next to Becky earlier, Rory felt a little irked.
He pulled over, rolled down the window, and lit a cigarette, resting one elbow on the window sill.
His face was as cold as the dark night sky. As he exhaled, smoke swirled in the air.
They had divorced. It was none of his business whether Becky had a new boyfriend or not.
Why should he care?
Rory threw the cigarette out the window and started the car again.
