Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 190

“I’m sorry I refused your invitation last time. I had a really tight schedule,” Becky said apologetically to Elmore, which made him more convinced that she was here to make peace.

He had a serious expression. But upon hearing what Becky said, he gave her a smile. “It’s absolutely fine. I understand how busy you must be now. You are a Ramos, after all.”

“Not as busy as you think.” Becky chuckled. “Something unusual happened that day.”

Becky’s statement contradicted her initial assertion that she had a tight schedule.

Ordinarily, Elmore would have noticed and questioned her further, but he didn’t.

He was more concerned about the purpose of the dinner.

Unlike Elmore, Denise understood what Becky meant. She glanced at Becky and met the latter’s searching gaze. Guilt pricked her heart and she looked away.

Becky made sure to apologize before they ate. After she apologized, Elmore felt more comfortable.

In a few minutes, the dishes were served, and Becky suggested that they should eat first.

Elmore, who was very keen on getting Becky and Rory back together, wanted to bring it up as soon as possible. He stretched his hand underneath the table and tapped Denise’s knee. “Don’t you owe Miss Ramos an apology?”

Denise had been nervous since she entered the room. Elmore’s touch came unexpectedly, and she trembled. Her spoon fell off her hand and dropped to the floor.

The room fell into silence. The others turned to look at Denise.
