Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 171

As Jessie approached, Devin stepped aside to give the two women some privacy to talk.

When Becky saw Jessie coming toward her, she cocked an eyebrow. “Why are you running so fast? Is a dog chasing you?”

“Put it out of your mind, Becky! I just heard something shocking.”

Becky drank some of the grape juice while laughing at Jessie. “Catching your breath should be your priority right now.”

Jessie was fuming as she panted.

When a waiter passed by, she drank half a glass of soda water. After she had composed herself, she told Becky, “Just now, I happened to see Mara and Anita in a corner on the second floor. I heard they planned to pour wine on your dress and then ask you to change into a dress they prepared for you.”

All the socialites in Courtbush were aware that Mara and Denise were at odds with Anita Martel.

Tonight, they went as far as trying to reconcile with Anita so that they could collectively deal with Becky. Becky wasn’t sure whether she should be flattered by her tremendous charisma or amused by their idiocy.

They thought Becky wouldn’t find out the truth if they let Anita do the dirty work. But they were wrong.

“What dresses did they prepare for me?” Becky asked, finding it interesting.

Speaking of the dress, Jessie was even angrier. “They’re too mean. The dress would fall apart if you put it on and took a few steps. They want you to make a fool of yourself!”

The consequences would be disastrous if it happened.

If Becky fell for their trap tonight, she would be the laughing stock of the town.

Denise and her friends, however, were too foolish to pull off their plan. Even if Jessie didn’t overhear their plot, Becky wouldn’t wear the dress others prepared for her. She would simply say her goodbyes to the Haynes family ahead of schedule and leave.
