Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 185
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
âJessie Walker!â Rory called.
Jessie realized that she shouldnât have told Rory about Becky having been in love with him for more than ten years.
So she left before she could do any more damage.
Rory reached out to stop her, but it was late.
âLowell, stop her!â Rory ordered his assistant.
Lowell, who was standing at the door, chased after Jessie at Roryâs furious shout.
âMiss Walker, please wait a moment. Mr. Casper has something to say.â
But before Lowell could finish talking, Jessie kicked him away and rushed into the elevator.
Lowell failed to catch up with her, and as the elevator doors closed shut, Jessie breathed a sigh of relief.
But it didnât last long. When she realized what she had done, Jessie grabbed her hair in frustration and slapped herself twice.
What had she done? Why couldnât she hold her tongue?
Lowell hadnât expected Jessie to kick and knock him down. And by the time he got back to his feet, the elevator doors had closed.
Rory emerged from the office, his expression clouded.
Lowell was nervous. âI failed to stop her, Mr. Casper.â
Rory had seen Jessie kick Lowell. He looked at the people who had gathered around and barked out, âIs it funny to you?â
The senior executives who had been in Roryâs office when Jessie had barged in and shouted at Rory were still stunned.
But as Rory scolded them, they quickly lowered their heads and left.
âCome in,â Rory said to Lowell.
Lowell trembled, his hands and feet going cold.
He watched as Rory entered his office before taking a deep breath and following him in.
âClose the door,â Rory said, frowning at him.
Lowell closed the door before turning to Rory and said timidly, âMr. Casper.â
Lowell knew that he had made multiple mistakes in his job. He not only failed to prevent Jessie from making trouble but also failed to stop her from leaving.
Lowellâs heart sank at this thought.
Rory glanced at Lowell and asked, âDid you hear what she just said?â
Lowell was surprised, thinking that he had misheard. He looked at Roryâs cold eyes before replying quickly, âNo, I didnât.â
It was impossible for Lowell to not hear it clearly. After all, Jessie had spoken so loudly that even the assistants in another office had heard every word.
But Lowell knew that whatever Jessie had said wasnât something that Roryâs subordinates could say to him. So he didnât dare admit that he had heard it.
Rory sneered. âWhat did she say? Repeat it.â
He paused before continuing, âIf you donât, youâll lose your year-end bonus.â
Lowell froze. He looked at Rory, trying to gauge if he was serious from his expression. Realizing Rory wasnât joking, he carefully repeated what Jessie had just said. âAre you a fucking man or not, Rory? Do you thinkââ
âYou donât have to repeat what she scolded me!â Rory interrupted him angrily.
