Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Chapter 251 It Should Be Her Phone

Throughout the journey to the villa, Rory's face remained gloomy.He was very far from happy. Immediately he heard about the rumor currently making the rounds, he knew that it was most likely his grandfather who had ordered Carl to spread it.

When he remembered what Becky had said to him a few days ago, Rory still felt the sting.

It was like a slap in his face.He wished he could forget it, but he just couldn't.

Rory stopped at the traffic lights and was so carried away by his thoughts that he didn't notice when the lights turned green.

But he was jerked back to reality by the loud honking from the cars behind him.He shook his head to clear off the cobwebs from his brain and then stepped on the gas.

Less than half an hour later, he arrived at his grandfather's place.

The butler was surprised to see him since no one had been expecting him.

The time of the day, too, was not a usual time for a visit from Rory.

"Mr.Casper,” he greeted nonetheless.

But Rory's only response was a glance at him before he walked straight into the villa, his face still as gloomy as ever.

By the time Rory walked in, Carl was informing Elmore about how people were responding to the rumor.

But noticing Rory's sudden presence, Elmore signed to Carl to stop.He had not called for his grandson, so why was he here?

"Rory, why are you here and by this time?" he asked in his usual direct manner.

"Grandpa," Rory greeted with a frown.

The next thing he did was to walk up to Elmore and practically confront him.

"You got someone to spread the rumor online, right?"

"So, is that why you came here? To challenge me?" Elmore growled, his face getting darker.

"It's impossible for me to remarry Becky,” Rory said quietly.

"Impossible? Or you just don't want to?"

But Rory didn't respond to the question.

Instead, he looked his grandfather in the eye and said, "I sincerely hope you won't do such a thing again.”

He couldn't understand why everyone wanted him to remarry Becky.

They made it seem like his divorce was a mistake.

After he had said what he had come to say, Rory turned around and began to leave.

"Hey! Come back here!" Elmore barked.

He was so livid that he threw his walking stick at his grandson's retreating figure.

But neither walking stick nor bark could get Rory to come back.

He left the house without even looking back.

Rory was very angry and he didn't care the least what his grandfather thought or felt.

When the butler saw Rory leaving, he was going to say something, but when he saw the look on Rory's face, he quickly drew back and kept his mouth shut.

Everyone who saw Rory knew instantly that he was brimming with fury.

Even the maids who were watering the flowers quickly got out of his way as he walked past them. No one wanted to be on the receiving end of such fury.

Rory was sick and tired of his grandfather's meddling in his life.

This new action of Elmore's had been the final straw that broke the camel's back.

Rory was still yet to recover from all that had happened to him in the last year and his grandfather had been constantly making it worse for him.

After he and Becky got divorced, he fell into depression.

Even after eight months, the pain was still raw.

Also, his feelings for Becky were no longer what they used to be.

He was now very possessive and it felt strange.

At the very beginning, he didn't have any special feelings for Becky, but ever since Devin began to pursue her, something seemed to click inside of Rory and he found that he just couldn't let Devin have her.

Even he couldn't understand why he felt this way.

Perhaps it was because Becky had been his wife for three years and he was just used to seeing her as his wife.

But nevertheless, that possessiveness had not made him lose his self- esteem.

So far, he had been working on moving past it.

What Elmore had done squashed every attempt of Rory's to be indifferent to the divorce.

Rory got into his car.

But before he could drive out of the villa, he heard someone shouting his name.

"Mr.Casper!"

It was a maid and she was running straight toward his car.Rory looked out of the window to talk to her.

"What is it?" he asked impatiently.

The maid was frightened by the coldness of his voice and the fire in his eyes.

She didn't dare look into his eyes as she showed him what she had brought.It was a mobile phone. "I found this when I was cleaning the potted plants Becky left behind. think it was her phone.” After handing him the phone, she turned around and scurried off.

Throughout the interaction, she had not even dared to look at Rory's face.
