Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 129
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
By the time Rory arrived, Elmore was furious thanks to Deniseâs stirring of the pot.
Elmore was already fuming since earlier that morning, but he managed to calm down a little. However, just as he was about to ask about Raina, Denise suddenly said, âGrandpa, do you think Beckyâs targeting our family? Now that sheâs come out as the daughter of the richest man in Bluepond, is she deliberately throwing us under the bus?â
Elmore was already angry to begin with. And now, hearing Deniseâs musing, he flew into a rage.
Not long ago, Stevie came with a suitcase of gold bars, saying it was to cover Beckyâs living expenses over the past three years.
Stevieâs implication was clear; he wanted to draw a clear line between the two families. The suitcase of gold bars was a tool to satirize the Casper family.
Elmore was a proud man and hated losing face the most. When the news that Becky was Stevieâs daughter had spread out, many people in their circles laughed at the Casper familyâs stupidity.
The Casper family used to be prosperous and respectable, but ever since Rory and Beckyâs divorce, they had often become the laughingstock of society.
In Elmoreâs eyes, his family wouldnât have come to this point if it werenât for Becky.
Becky divorcing Rory had brought so much trouble to the Casper family. As though that wasnât enough, she even brought her parents here and made a fool out of the family. It was like a slap in Elmoreâs face.
These grudges had been festering in Elmoreâs heart for a long time now. Deniseâs brief words were enough to enrage him once more.
Elmore was so angry that he threw the cup in his hand onto the floor, shattering it into thousands of pieces.
Jenifer pulled Deniseâs sleeve, silently asking her to keep quiet.
Denise stuck out her tongue.
Just then, Rory arrived. âGrandpa?â
The Casper family were all shocked at Roryâs appearance.
Elmore asked, âWhat the hell happened to your face? Who punched you? Did Becky ask someone to beat you up?â
In Elmoreâs eyes, nobody would dare to go against the Casper family other than Becky.
It was as though Beckyâs sole purpose in life was to get the Casper family in trouble!
Rory ignored his question. âHave you had breakfast already?â
âEat! Eat! Eat! I am not in the mood to eat! What the hell was Becky talking about in that video? Wasnât Raina supposed to be in a coma? When did she come back from abroad? Explain!â
Elmore didnât like both Becky and Raina.
To start with, the Morgan family was not very rich. They owned a shell company, which was indeed outstanding for an ordinary family, but they werenât anywhere near the caliber of the Casper family.
However, Rory fell for Raina and his brother fell for Babette. And in saving Roryâs life, Raina had fallen into a coma and had been in a vegetative state for the longest time. Rory wanted to marry Raina, but Elmore strongly opposed their union. At last, each of them made a concession. Babette married Amor, and the Casper family funded Rainaâs medical bills abroad.
Although Elmore wasnât fond of Babette, he gradually came to accept her, rather than letting Raina marry into his family.
When Becky, whom they thought was from a poor family, married Rory, Elmore naturally projected all his disgust on her.
Though Elmore hated Becky, this didnât extinguish his disgust for Raina.
His eldest grandson had married such a useless wife. He didnât want Rory to marry another useless woman from an ordinary family.
