Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 74
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
âIâm not sure yet,â Becky said, glancing at Stevie.
How could Stevie not understand? He and Becky had met Denise and Babette last night, and now rumor had it that he was Beckyâs sugar daddy. He had been in the business for so many years that he had seen these dirty tricks already. âTheyâve gone too far!â
Afraid that he would get angry, Becky hurried to mollify him. âDad, please donât get angry. Iâll have someone look into it.â
âYes! Find out as soon as possible! Your mother is right! The people who did this must have no proper upbringing. I wonder how their parents educated them!â
Stevie had wanted to settle accounts with the Casper family a long time ago, but Becky had stopped him. He now had the chance and no matter what Becky said, he wouldnât let this go.
Becky knew that Stevie was concerned about her. Deniseâs actions this time would prove that her intentions were bad and that she was stupid. She had to get even with Denise.
âI will. Iâll ask my secretary to look into it,â Becky said, pouring a cup of tea for Stevie.
Stevie was furious. Afraid that he would explode, Becky tried to calm him down as best as she could.
Stevie did calm down after a while and said, âIf Denise did it, you canât stop me and your mother from teaching her a lesson this time.â
Becky forced a smile as she said, âI wonât. I mean it.â
Stevie nodded, satisfied.
He had been holding back his anger for a long time now. If Denise had really done it, he would not let her go so easily this time.
After lunch, they walked out of the private room, Stevieâs expression still sour.
Becky smiled as she took his hand and said, âDad, come on. Give me a smile.â
Stevie lowered his head to look at his daughter before smiling reluctantly.
Becky couldnât help but laugh. âIt looks like youâre in pain.â
Her words amused Stevie. âYouâd fight back when being bullied at school. Why have you turned into a pushover? Are you afraid that I canât protect you?â
The smile on Beckyâs lips faded. âIâve grown up. Iâm not as impulsive as before.â
Stevie couldnât help but mention the fact that Becky used to be a school bully.
They continued to talk and laugh, Becky holding onto Stevieâs arm. It looked way too intimate from a distance.
People who knew them would say the father and daughter were close, but it was possible for others to overthink it. There were rumors that day that Becky was Stevieâs mistress. This scene seemed to confirm those rumors.
Rory exited the elevator to see Becky holding a middle-aged manâs arm, talking and laughing with him. His expression soured at this.
Lowell, who was standing behind him, froze. He hadnât believed the rumors about Becky being someoneâs mistress. But he hadnât expected to see this scene live in front of him.
He subconsciously looked at Rory and cautiously called out to him. âMr. Casper?â
Rory pretended to not hear it. He fixed his gaze on Becky, who was now walking towards him.
