Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 84
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Denise laughed scornfully. âDonât you know why you donât have a child?â
âIn the three years we were married, Rory never touched me. How could I bear a child by myself?â Truth be told, Becky didnât want to talk about this. But what Elmore said had crossed the line. âJust because I never had a child, you turned a blind eye whenever Babette made things difficult for me. And now, you have the audacity to claim that Iâm lying to my parents. Mr. Casper, I only show you any respect you because youâre an old man. But why are you lying?â
âBecky!â Rory, who had been quiet this whole time, suddenly exploded.
Becky glanced at him coldly. âDonât you dare shout at me, Rory. Since weâre divorced, I wonât mention whatever happened in the past three years. But your grandfatherâs claiming that Iâm the liar here. Iâm not, and you know whoâs lying. Iâm willing to overlook everything you and your family did to me while we were still married, but as for things that Denise has done to me after our divorce, youâd better give me a satisfactory explanation.â
Becky spoke each word clearly and concisely.
On her way here, she was calm and collected. But the Casper family had gone too far. They still kept lying and lying through their teeth.
When Becky didnât reveal who her father was, the Casper family looked down upon her. After the divorce, Denise continued to hurt her. Now she just wanted an explanation, but Elmore had the audacity to say that she was lying.
âI have cold, hard evidence that Denise drugged me. I also have evidence that she was the one who took a photo of me and my father and posted it on Facebook, spreading rumors that I was his mistress. Iâm not an unreasonable person. If it werenât for the fact that Denise made things difficult for me time and time again, I wouldnât have let my parents come here today. Theyâd hate to see you.â
Becky had been obedient and easy-going for three whole years. But today, she criticized the Casper family in front of Elmore.
Elmore was so angry that his face turned purple. But now, things were different. He couldnât just scold and beat her. Becky wasnât Roryâs submissive wife anymore; now, she was a member of the rich and powerful Ramos family.
Stevie stood beside Becky. If the Casper family continued to be unreasonable, he was determined to make an enemy of them in the future.
Denise wasnât convinced at all. She had always looked down upon Becky, and she still couldnât accept the fact that Becky wasnât as meek and humble as before. She pointed a finger at Becky and snapped, âHow dare you speak ill of my family?â
Jenifer reacted quickly and clamped her hand on Deniseâs mouth.
Becky sneered in disdain. âArenât you the bad one here?â
âSay that again, youââ
âFor once in your life, shut your mouth, Denise!â Rory roared in a fit of rage. Then he turned to glare at Becky with a murderous look in his eyes.
âYou know what Denise has done, Rory,â Becky said, locking eyes with him bravely.
Rory did know. After the news that Becky was an older manâs mistress was spread out, he asked Lowell to investigate the matter.
Stevieâs face wasnât clear in the photos online, so Rory didnât recognize him at first. Lowell told him that the man was Stevie, but still Rory didnât connect the dots that Becky was in fact Stevieâs daughter.
Denise still wanted to defend herself, but when she saw the murderous look in Roryâs eyes, she clamped her mouth shut.
âMr. and Mrs. Ramos, this is Deniseâs fault.â After saying that, Rory turned and looked at Denise sternly. âApologize to them.â
âIââ Denise protested.
âNow!â Rory shouted.
