Rory did not leave immediately after he exited Crowbar Technologies.
He sat in the car, lit a cigarette, and stared out of the window at the busy traffic. He only started the car after he had finished smoking.
When Aiken called him, Rory had been sitting outside Becky’s apartment building for half an hour.
Night fell. Rory looked out of the car’s left window to see Courtbush’s downtown area.
His phone vibrated with an incoming call.
He picked it up and frowned when he saw who was calling.
Rory didn’t want to answer Aiken’s call, but the constant vibration was disturbing.
He made to turn it down but accidentally touched the answer button.
Aiken’s voice was clear in the quiet car. “Are you crazy, Rory? No matter how much you hate Becky, you don’t have to post such things on the Internet!”
Rory was about to hang up but Aiken’s words gave him pause.
He put the phone to his ear and said, “What are you talking about?”
Aiken, on the other hand, had just finished a meeting and didn’t know much about what had happened.
