Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 204
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Denise found Rory just sitting there. She pursed her lips as she looked at Becky. She didnât dare say anything. Aggrieved, she merely lowered her head and chose to remain quiet.
The waiter, who was standing to the side, couldnât help but ask, âMiss Ramos, wouldnât these many dishes be a little too much for the three of you?â
Deniseâs eyes found Becky again at these words. If it wasnât for Roryâs presence, she would have told Becky not to push it.
Becky smiled and said, âOh, I forgot to tell you to pack the dishes I just ordered.â
She paused and looked at Rory before continuing, âMy friends are a little busy. They asked me to buy some food and bring it to them. I donât think you would mind, would you?â
Rory looked at her, his expression unchanging. âThatâs okay.â
âGreat!â Becky said cheerfully. She then pointed at two dishes and said, âOkay, I want these two dishes. As for the rest, you can ask them.â
Becky was acting like she was the host.
Denise was angry, but she couldnât say anything. She then ordered three dishes.
Rory added a soup and a dessert.
When their order was done, the waiter breathed a sigh of relief. He had felt the weirdness in the air of this room as soon as he had entered it.
Now that the order had finally been placed, the waiter said with a smile, âPlease wait a moment.â
He hurried out of the room, leaving the three of them to themselves again.
Becky poured herself a cup of coffee and took a sip. She then looked at Rory and Denise as she asked them, âDo you want to talk about things before or after dinner?â
She put her cup down and pursed her lips before she answered her own question. âI think we should talk after dinner. Iâm afraid you wonât be in the mood to eat otherwise.â
Rory looked at Becky. She was smiling but the smile didnât reach her eyes. Instead, her politeness had a chilling quality to it.
She seemed to be sure that their conversation tonight would not be pleasant.
Rory blinked at her before saying, âThen letâs talk after dinner.â
Becky smiled. âOkay.â
They didnât have a common ground. Even if they did, no one would say anything.
Rory was a man of few words. Denise was angry but she didnât dare talk. Becky was not in the mood to talk to them. The room was so quiet that one could hear the sound of running water from the fountain in the lobby.
Fortunately, the dishes were served soon. The waiter broke the long silence as he brought the food in.
However, the atmosphere in the room was so depressing, the waiter, who had entered with a smile on his face, immediately became cautious as he approached the table.
âThe dishes are ready. Please enjoy yourselves. Dessert will be served soon.â
He carefully set the dishes on the table before leaving the room without a backward glance.
Rory looked at Becky and said, âLetâs enjoy the food.â
He had barely finished talking when Becky stood up and ladled herself a bowl of soup before sitting back down. She did not pay any attention to Rory.
It was just a meal. Did he think that she wouldnât dare eat if he didnât say that?
Becky took a sip of the soup and thought it was delicious. She suddenly felt that coming to the meal was worth it.
At least the food tasted good and would fill her up. It wouldnât be hard for her to swallow.
