Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 19

Becky had an early meeting that day, and it ran long. It was already eleven o’clock when the meeting ended.

Becky was appointed as the second-in-command of Fairway Group by the headquarters. Her position was right after the CEO. Not long after she showed up, the employees had come up with thirteen versions of her story.

The most convincing one was that Becky was the mistress of a senior executive. Nobody could find out what she had done in the four years after her graduation. Because this part of her background was completely blank, they reasoned that she had to be a mistress.

Although Becky wanted to take over the family business, she didn’t intend to make her identity public for the time being. Only Talia, who had come to the company with her, knew her real identity.

Even the CEO of Fairway Group, Elvin Perkins, had no idea.

Elvin was by no means a stupid man. When the headquarters suddenly arranged for such a young woman to work under him, he knew that something was brewing. With his years of experience, Elvin’s first instinct was that the headquarters wanted to replace him with Becky.

Becky was a newcomer but held a high position in the company. Consequently, she was torn between the ordinary employees and the CEO. Elvin had asked her to join the business dinner last night to make things difficult for her.

But Becky was no stranger to difficulties and was ready to face them head-on. Since she chose to work in this company without revealing her identity, she wouldn’t cry for help in her first few days here.

Hearing what Talia said, Becky smiled indifferently. “I don’t care what they say.”

In her three years with the Casper family, she had heard countless unpleasant words directed at her.

Talia nodded and warned her about Elvin’s little trick. “The Haynes family already have their hands on that land. Obviously, Elvin wants to derail you.”

Becky raised her eyebrows. “Keenan Haynes, right?”

“Yes.”

Becky’s eyes flashed meaningfully. “Nobody knows whether this will derail me or if it’ll be another stepping stone to my success. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!”

Elvin wanted to discourage her. Her competitor was one of Rory’s best friends, Keenan.

Things were getting interesting.
