Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 149

Becky looked at Babette, her eyebrows raised, and asked, “What can I do for you?”

“Just give me five minutes,” Babette said, walking out of the elevator and pointing to the corridor behind Becky.

With a slight shrug, Becky turned around and walked to the end of the corridor.

“Becky, I’m sorry for what happened to you yesterday. I don’t know why my sister lied. The impact of it all is beyond our control now. Elmore was furious about it last night and had to be taken to the hospital,” Babette said, looking carefully at Becky.

Becky smiled at her as she asked, “What are you trying to say?”

Babette didn’t know what to do with Becky’s reaction. But she also knew that there was no better way to deal with it than to ask Becky to delete her tweet.

“It’s true that Raina lied. I won’t deny it. But she has paid the price for her lie. She almost died yesterday. She did something stupid and should be held responsible for it. I apologize to you on her behalf.”

As Babette spoke, she stepped back and bowed. “I’m so sorry.”

Becky had been Babette’s sister-in-law for more than three years. But this was the first time that Babette was being so humble before her. Seeing this side of Babette was an eye-opening experience for her.

Becky smiled but didn’t say a word.

Her expression shifted as she continued, “Besides, both of us know why Rory married you. The past is in the past. Now that you have divorced Rory, you should move on. Raina did something wrong, but the doctor said that she is depressed. I hope you will understand my concern as her sister.”

She looked hopefully at Becky, obviously waiting for her answer.

Becky’s smile remained. Her gaze went to the phone in Babette’s hand. “You have made great efforts to say so many heartfelt words for your sister. I am moved by your deep affection.”

She walked over to Babette and grabbed the phone from her hand. “If only you haven’t recorded the whole thing on your phone.”
