Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 187
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Carl was surprised to see that Talia was calling him. He checked the phone number again to ascertain that it was indeed her before answering the phone. âHello, Miss Murray. Carl Bryant speaking.â
Becky had taught Carl a lesson, which had him terrified of communicating with her staff.
Talia didnât have a good impression of the Casper family, but she was always polite. She had developed and cultivated this trait during the time she had worked for Stevie. âHello, Mr. Bryant. This is Talia Murray, Miss Ramosâ secretary. Miss Ramos wants to meet Mr. Casper. Would tonight work?â
Taliaâs words surprised Carl. Becky voluntarily making an appointment to meet Elmore was unexpected, but Carl was not in a position to answer Talia right away. âIâll have to check with Mr. Casper. Could I call you back?â he asked.
âOkay, thank you.â
Carl hung up and immediately made his way to see Elmore.
Elmore listened to Carl before saying excitedly, âOf course! Why not?â
He paused before saying rather smugly, âSee? Becky is just too arrogant. Sheâs now trying to find a way to meet us after weâve shown our sincerity.â
Now that he had the jarring experience with Raina, Elmoreâs attitude towards Becky changed.
âGet back to Beckyâs secretary. Iâd like to invite Becky to dinner with the Casper family.â
Elmore also planned to ask Rory to come back home, with the intention of creating a chance for Becky and Rory to be together.
He believed that if they met frequently, they would get back together. After all, Becky had feelings for Rory.
The more Elmore thought about it, the happier he became.
But Carl was a little embarrassed as he took Beckyâs reply to him. âMr. Casper, it seems that Miss Ramos would like to invite you to dinner.â
Elmore was stunned for a moment. But he soon came to his senses, waved his hand, and said, âFine. So be it. Young people are always so arrogant.â
Now that he understood that Becky was still angry, he would give her one more out.
Carl nodded and exited the room. He called Talia and relayed Elmoreâs answer. But Talia had something else to add according to Beckyâs instructions. âPlease ask Mr. Casper to bring Denise along. Miss Ramos said that there is some misunderstanding between Denise and her and hopes to clear it up tonight.â
Carl had the feeling that there was something strange going on. But he could find nothing wrong with Taliaâs attitude towards him.
So he had no choice but to agree. âOkay. See you tonight.â
âSee you.â
Carl then told Elmore what Beckyâs secretary had said.
At this, Elmore thought that Becky was going to reconcile with the Casper family and was instantly happier. âThatâs fine.
Misunderstandings should be resolved. Denise did go too far. Now that Becky wants to clear the air, itâs not a big deal to ask Denise to apologize again. Tell Denise not to go anywhere else tonight.â
Carl nodded and said, âYes, sir.â
He then went looking for Denise.
Coincidentally, Denise was at home, happily browsing the comments section online. She had even created a new account just to like the comments that were scolding Becky. But she soon began to get bored of doing it alone and thought that it wasnât enough. So she paid people to do it with her. Soon enough, an article ripping Beckyâs reputation apart began trending.
Just as Denise was savoring her revenge, a knock sounded on her door.
Denise guiltily put down the iPad and hurried to open the door. âDoes Grandpa have something to talk to me about?â
âHe has asked you to attend a dinner with him tonight.â
âOh, I see!â Denise said, nodding. She made to close the door when a question came to her mind. âWho is the dinner invite from?â
Carl looked up and said, âBecky Ramos.â
