Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 172
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Jessie left excitedly after she heard Beckyâs plan. Devin approached and said, âYour friend looks much happier.â
Becky smiled. âThatâs how she is.â
In a casual gesture, Devin placed a strand of Beckyâs hair behind her ear. Then, he withdrew his hand as if nothing had occurred.
âYouâve got that smile on your face again.â
Since he pretended that nothing happened, Becky decided to ignore it, too. With a smile, she said, âThere will be a good show to watch later.â
Rory, who was not too far away, saw what happened just now.
The two peopleâs cheerful expressions made his eyes hurt.
When he said nothing, Aiken couldnât help but clink the glass he was holding. âRory, what are your eyes on?â
Aiken followed Roryâs gaze. His eyebrows shot up and he sent a smug glance at Rory as soon as he caught sight of Becky and Devin. âBecky and Devin seem to get along well.â
Rory gave Aiken a disdainful look. âYouâre a great one for idle gossip.â
With that, he walked toward Cohen with a glass of wine in his hand.
Aiken scoffed, âWhat a stubborn man!â
Still, he had been friends with Devin for so many years. After taking a sip of wine, Aiken walked over to Devin and Becky. âDevin, long time no see.â
Beckyâs joy disappeared as she saw Aiken approaching.
Aiken glanced at Becky. âYou look extremely lovely today.â
âThank you,â Becky replied politely. âYou guys talk.â
She then left, still clutching the glass.
âKeep it here, Devin. I need to ask you a question.â
After staring at Beckyâs back for a while, Devin finally turned his attention to Aiken, asking with a sly grin, âWhat do you want to ask?â
âNothing. I just want to know how you managed to date so many girlfriends.â
Knowing that Aiken was making fun of him, Devin didnât answer his question but asked, âDid Rory ask you to come here?â
âHey, Iâm here to ask you a question. Why does it have anything to do with Rory?â
Devin only gave him an amused glance.
Under Devinâs gaze, Aiken felt a bit guilty. Devin might not be able to locate Becky anytime soon since she was out of sight, so Aiken succeeded in his mission. He was about to find an excuse to leave when two screams suddenly came from not far away.
Becky thought it would take a while for a good show to start, but Denise couldnât wait.
Anita spilled red wine on Becky. Before Becky could react, Anita screamed and stopped her, apologizing continuously, âMiss Ramos, Iâm sorry. I didnât see you just now! Sorry again! Your dress is stained. Let me take you to get changed.â
Anitaâs apology was so sincere that Becky didnât have the heart to refuse her.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Jessie before replying with a smile, âSure.â
Anita took Becky to change her dress. On the way, she apologized again and again. She was good at acting and it was a waste not to be an actress.
At the same time, Deniseâs dress was stained with red wine too, and the person who did it was no other than Jessie.
Denise pulled a long face as she was looking at the stained dress with red wine.
Jessie, however, continued apologizing to her, and if Denise became irate at this point, people would assume that she was being mean since Becky didnât blame Anita.
No matter how angry Denise was, she could only hold back her anger.
Afraid that Denise couldnât stand it anymore, Mara whispered in her ear, âDenise, Beckyâs on the way to change her dress with Anita.â
Deniseâs expression softened. She looked at Jessie, who was still apologizing, and said, âForget it. You didnât mean it.â
