Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 129

By the time Rory arrived, Elmore was furious thanks to Denise’s stirring of the pot.

Elmore was already fuming since earlier that morning, but he managed to calm down a little. However, just as he was about to ask about Raina, Denise suddenly said, “Grandpa, do you think Becky’s targeting our family? Now that she’s come out as the daughter of the richest man in Bluepond, is she deliberately throwing us under the bus?”

Elmore was already angry to begin with. And now, hearing Denise’s musing, he flew into a rage.

Not long ago, Stevie came with a suitcase of gold bars, saying it was to cover Becky’s living expenses over the past three years. Stevie’s implication was clear; he wanted to draw a clear line between the two families. The suitcase of gold bars was a tool to satirize the Casper family.

The Casper family used to be prosperous and respectable, but ever since Rory and Becky’s divorce, they had often become the laughingstock of society.

In Elmore’s eyes, his family wouldn’t have come to this point if it weren’t for Becky.

Becky divorcing Rory had brought so much trouble to the Casper family. As though that wasn’t enough, she even brought her parents here and made a fool out of the family. It was like a slap in Elmore’s face.

These grudges had been festering in Elmore’s heart for a long time now. Denise’s brief words were enough to enrage him once more.

Elmore was so angry that he threw the cup in his hand onto the floor, shattering it into thousands of pieces.

Jenifer pulled Denise’s sleeve, silently asking her to keep quiet.

Denise stuck out her tongue.

Just then, Rory arrived. “Grandpa?”
