Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 193
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
For a moment, the room was extremely quiet.
Then, Denise broke the silence by saying, âBecky, please donât say that. You are different now. Of course, we wouldnât dare treat you like before. Yes, I did it. I will take responsible for it, and Iâm sure youâll be satisfied with it.â
Becky chuckled. âWell, I want to know how you are going to take responsible for it, Denise.â
She paused and smiled sarcastically at Denise before continuing, âAnd how do you know that I will be satisfied with it?â
Elmore cut in, âBecky, we used to be a family. Donât be so ruthless to us. It is Deniseâs fault, yes. What do you want us to do so that you can forgive her? Iâll make Denise do it. Besides, if you...â
Elmore stopped abruptly, his gaze locking with Beckyâs. He wanted to say, âIf you keep making trouble like this, Rory will hate you.â But on second thought, he said, âYou are a Ramos. If our families fight each other, everyone will treat us like a joke.â
Elmore did make some sense.
Becky didnât want to continue their quarrel. The purpose of her inviting Elmore to dinner tonight was to solve the problem, not quarrel with them.
But Denise had gone too far. Becky had to give Elmore a stern warning to keep Denise in check.
Becky said seriously, âYou are right, Mr. Casper. I asked you to dinner today to deal with this in the most appropriate way. The Internet is full of rumors about me. Iâve become the other woman in peopleâs eyes, which is the most malicious attack that can be made on a woman. This is not the first time that Denise has done such a thing. I donât want to hear her apology. All I want is for her to clarify everything. I donât care what method she will use. I only have two requests. First, clarify that I didnât interfere in Rory and Rainaâs relationship. Second, clarify that the comic book wasnât created by me and keep the information of the author a secret.â
Becky looked at Elmore and added, âMr. Casper, I donât think my requests are too much, are they?â
After what had happened, it was appropriate for Becky to make such requests.
Elmore had no reason to blame Becky. He looked at her and made a solemn promise. âDonât worry. We will meet your requirements.â
âYou are right. If we continue to quarrel, people will laugh at us. We donât have to be the laughing stock. As long as Denise does everything I asked for, I promise everything will be settled.â
As she spoke, Becky tore the photos into pieces.
Elmore nodded, satisfied. âYou are a straightforward person. Itâs a pity that you and Rory are not fated to be together.â
Becky smiled but didnât say a word. The tension in the air was no longer there, and everything was peaceful.
Elmore couldnât sit still any longer. He got up and left, Denise in tow.
Becky watched their retreating backs and said, âI donât know if this old man is willing to keep Denise in check.â
Talia smiled. âI think Elmore is furious. Denise will suffer when they return home.â
Beckyâs eyebrows shot up at this. âYouâre right. He has always been sensitive about his reputation. Thatâs why he chose to defend Denise. But things will be different once he goes back home.â
She wondered if Denise would be able to walk the next day.
The floor was cold at this time of the year. Deniseâs knees would hurt if she had to kneel for a long time.
