Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 218
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
Webster hung up the phone and planned to call Devin at once. His wifeâs voice stopped him. âItâs so early in the morning. Who made you this angry?â
His wifeâs questions only added fuel to the fire of Websterâs anger. âWho else would make me this angry? Devin, thatâs who! He told me he wanted to marry Becky just a short while ago. Now he has a new girlfriend! I canât believe he did this after chasing Becky for so long! Beckyâs father just called. I feel so ashamed!â
Joanne Stanley, Websterâs wife, was stunned. âWhat new girlfriend? Do you mean Carlee?â
Webster froze with confusion. âCarlee? What does Carlee have to do with any of this?â
Joanne handed her phone to her husband. âLook for yourself! I was just about to show you. These reporters always get everything wrong. Carlee cannot be Devinâs new girlfriend. They got it all wrong!â
Webster looked at the phone and read the news articles. He was even more confused. âHow can Carlee be his new girlfriend?â
It was then Webster realized there had actually been a misunderstanding.
Stevie was still home to receive Websterâs urgent call. Luckily, he had not left for work yet. He looked at the caller ID and was shocked. âI didnât expect Webster would call me back so soon,â he said to his wife, Vivien, who was beside him.
He was encouraged that the man had taken him so seriously when he said he wanted Devin to apologize.
âAnswer the phone,â Vivien said. She was also stunned that Webster would ring back so soon.
Stevie answered the phone, anxious to hear how Webster and Devin planned to deal with the situation. âWebster?â
âI just found out something you might want to know, Stevie,â Webster started. âThe entire thing about Devinâs new girlfriend is just a misunderstanding.â
Stevie frowned in frustration, but he kept his composure towards Webster. He wanted the Ramos family and the Stanley family to remain on good terms. âWhat kind of misunderstanding? What has happened?â
Stevieâs anger was bristling just under the surface as he spoke.
Websterâs voice gave away his smile. âThis girlfriend of Devinâs in the news is Carlee. Sheâs Nolanâs wife. Donât you remember being invited to their wedding? If you look at the photo, itâs really just Carlee. There have always been rumors about Devin having many girlfriends, but just like this time, none of them are true. You donât have to take any of the rumors seriously. He told us he only loves Becky.â
Webster was patiently trying to convince his friend about Devinâs love for Becky.
Stevie was a little muddled, but he didnât like to hear about Devinâs love for Becky. He only agreed with his friend to keep the peace. âItâs okay then if itâs just a misunderstanding. My anger made me impulsive. Sorry to bother you so early in the morning.â
âIâm glad this is resolved. I wouldnât want anything to get in between our long friendship. Becky has grown up right before my eyes and Devin cares so much for her. Maybe theyâll get married one day.â
Stevie simply changed the subject. He complained about the blunders of the news reporters and then made his excuses so he could end the call.
Vivien was eager to hear what was said. âWhat happened?â
Stevie was quiet at first. He looked on his phone at the screenshot of Devin and Carlee. The thoughts he had about the two of them made him blush.
This was even more humiliating!
He decided to tell Vivien only the basics. âNothing. Itâs all just a misunderstanding. Itâs a married woman who is not involved with Devin. Letâs not say anything to Becky. She will probably take it the wrong way.â
Stevie would never want Devin as his son-in-law.
There was no way he was going to let that playboy, Devin, marry his daughter.
Despite her husbandâs caution, Vivien knew about all of it and laughed when she told Becky.
Becky listened and was also shocked by what Vivien told her. âThatâs a huge misunderstanding,â she said with a smile.
The situation between Becky and Devin might have been forgotten by most people, but Rory was not one of them.
