Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 121
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
When Lowell arrived, he saw Rory standing by the car, smoking.
Thinking that Rory was becoming impatient, Lowell quickly pulled over, got out, and hurried over, saying, âMr. Casper, Iâve called the tow truck. It should be here soon.â
Rory looked up at the sound of Lowellâs voice, stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, and said, âGive me your car keys.â
Lowell didnât dare say anything and silently handed him the keys.
Rory got into Lowellâs car, his expression icy, and before long, he drove away.
Lowell remained standing by the side of the road and watched as the car retreated. Rory was being inexplicably weird today.
He knew a thing or two about Rory, having worked for him for so many years. One frown from Rory could tell Lowell what he was feeling.
But tonight was different. Lowell could clearly tell that Rory was angry, but there was something unspeakable in it.
Lowell couldnât guess what his boss was thinking, so he decided to not dwell on it.
The traffic lights turned red and Devinâs car came to a slow halt.
Becky was in a good mood as she turned to look up at Devin. She thought he was pleasant company tonight.
âDo you think Iâm narrow-minded?â she asked him.
It was a small thing, but it had remained in her mind.
âYes,â Devin said, turning and looking back at her, a faint smile on his lips.
Becky frowned and made to say something, but Devin added, âBut also very cute.â
âCute?â
This was the first time that Becky had heard someone use the words ânarrow-mindedâ and âcuteâ in the same sentence.
âYes,â Devin answered seriously, but his eyes were smiling.
Becky couldnât stand his stare. She pursed her lips and turned away. âDevin, you really are a playboy, full of sweet words.â
âBecky,â Devin called out abruptly. His voice was serious, devoid of banter.
âYes?â Becky answered. She stopped smiling at the seriousness in his tone.
âDo you mind that I have many ex-girlfriends?â
He was careful about the words he was using.
Beckyâs eyebrows shot up as she said, âNo.â
One would only be possessive of the person they loved.
Becky had no romantic feelings for Devin, and she was just moved by what he had done for her. She didnât mind if he had many ex-girlfriends.
In her marriage with Rory, the only thing Becky had learned was to be rational. She knew Devin was a playboy, and falling in love with a playboy would hurt her in the end.
Her words seemed to dim the light in Devinâs beautiful eyes. âIf I were not the kind of person that people made me out to be, would you fall in love with me?â
âThereâs no if in the world,â Becky said before pointing at the traffic lights. âWe should go now.â
Devin looked at her for a second longer and started the car again.
Becky pursed her lips. She didnât know if it was her illusion, but Devin seemed to be implying something when he looked at her just now.
But she was right. There was no if in the world.
