Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 160
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Raina and Babette remained with the silence Elmore left behind in the ward.
âWhat should we do now, Babette?â Raina asked.
Babetteâs mind was a mess. She looked at the bank card on the table.
Fifty million dollars meant nothing to the Casper family. Elmore wanted to drive them away, but he didnât want to spend a lot of money.
But Babette knew that it would be difficult for Raina to marry into the Casper family, given the current circumstances.
Elmoreâs parting words had been quite vicious, too.
If Raina insisted on marrying Rory, Babette would no longer be a member of the Casper family. But if Raina took the money and left, Babette could still be Mrs. Casper.
Babette had wanted Raina to marry into the Casper family only because she wanted to be a part of the family again.
But Babette was hesitant now since the Casper family still recognized her as one of them even if Raina would not marry Rory.
âBabette!â Raina called loudly, interrupting Babetteâs train of thought just as Babette was going to ask Raina to accept the money and give up.
Babette looked up at Raina, guilt written all over her face. âRaina, listen to me. This old man...â
âI know what you are thinking,â Raina interrupted her. âYou think thereâs no way I can marry into the Casper family now, so youâre thinking that it would be better for you to continue as Mrs. Casper than lose everything. But Babette, donât forget that your husband is dead. Whatâs the use of that title? You think you can use the Casper familyâs money?â
Raina had given voice to Babetteâs thoughts, which embarrassed and angered Babette. âSo whatâs your plan? Donât forget that getting rid of us will be as easy as killing an ant for them. Donât tell me you want to be sent abroad again!â
Raina took her time to calm down before saying, âYou know what? Meeting Elmore today is a chance handed to us on a platter.â
Babette frowned. âWhat do you mean?â
Raina whispered something in Babetteâs ear.
Babette hesitated as he heard what Raina had to say. âDo you think it will work?â she asked skeptically.
âDonât worry. It will definitely work!â
Babette gritted her teeth as she considered this. âFine. Thereâs no other way now anyway.â
The sisters continued to discuss their next plan in a low voice.
Meanwhile, Becky had calmed down after attending a meeting.
To her, the bidding that was to take place the next day was more important. âHas Keenan been doing anything lately?â
Keenan would be Beckyâs biggest competitor in tomorrowâs bid. She had already asked Talia to keep an eye on him.
Talia brought Becky up to date with Keenanâs latest activities and said, âThere is nothing unusual at present.â
Becky nodded. âI see.â
She went back to her office and immediately got busy dealing with two urgent documents. Only then did she get the chance to leave the office.
When Becky walked out, she found that it was raining. There was a spare umbrella in the office, but she didnât want to go back to get it. It wasnât raining very heavily, just a drizzle. She tugged at her windbreaker and decided to take a taxi.
âWhy donât you care about your health?â
A black umbrella appeared over her head the moment she walked out into the rain, accompanied by a familiar male voice. Becky turned and her eyes met a pair of familiar, smiling eyes.
Becky smiled sheepishly and said, âThereâs a taxi! It would only take me a few seconds to run and get into the car. I wonât get wet.â
She had barely finished speaking when someone got into the taxi she was pointing at.
Devin clicked his tongue. âWhat now?â
Becky blinked and replied, âIt seems that I have to bother you again, Devin.â
Devin stared at her before handing her the umbrella and saying, âIâll bring my car.â
He then walked into the rain.
Becky held onto the umbrella, wondering what had just happened.
The handle was still warm, but it felt scalding hot to her skin. She quickly moved her hand to avoid it.
