The news about what happened that night spread like wildfire. Bluepond was a relatively big city, but there were only some influential and rich families in the circle.
The Casper family was the top among the four big families in Bluepond. As the only daughter of the head of the Casper family, Denise had grown up to be proud and arrogant.
However, she had made an awful fool of herself tonight. Becky proved to the world that she didn’t give a damn about Denise’s cheap bracelet.
Denise burst into tears and fled to the lounge. As she ran, Aiken bent and picked up the check Becky had left.
It was indeed a check for four hundred thousand dollars.
Aiken looked up at Rory and asked in disbelief, “Could it be fake?”
He wondered where in the world Becky got the money.
Rory glanced at the check in Aiken’s hand and snorted. “Do you lack four hundred thousand dollars?”
Aiken raised his eyebrows and held up his hands defensively. “I was just curious.”
Rory shot a cold glance at him. “Curiosity killed the cat.”
Aiken looked at Rory incredulously, at a loss for words.
Becky was cruel tonight. After such a scene, Denise would probably become the laughingstock of the town for a long time.
Thinking of this, Aiken couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really going to let her go just like that?”
Of course, Rory wouldn’t let Becky get away with it like this, but he wouldn’t tell Aiken.
Rory snatched the check out of Aiken’s hand, turned around, and walked out.
The driver wasn’t expecting Becky and Jessie would want to leave the party so soon, so he was surprised when they called him so early. “Miss Ramos, I’m so sorry. I’ll get the car right away!”
Hearing the bustling background noise on the other end of the line, Becky chuckled and said kindly, “No rush, Ernest. You eat first. I’ll go to the bathroom.”
After hanging up, Becky headed towards the guest lounge, her high heels clicking against the floor.
The heavy earrings were starting to weigh her down, so she took them off first. “I can’t believe you made me wear such expensive earrings. When your mother finds out, you’ll be doomed.”
Jessie snorted dismissively. “It was my mother who gave them to me in the first place. When she heard that I was picking out jewelry for you, she gave me the whole set without hesitation. I knew you didn’t like the necklace, or else I would’ve brought that, too!”
Becky expressionlessly took the piece of paper out of his hand.
After that, she stood up and looked Rory up and down. “And what if I don’t?”
“Then don’t blame her for making trouble for you.”
Becky suddenly broke into a smile. “Okay. I’ll look forward to it.”
Hearing this, Rory was rendered speechless. And the stupid smile on her face made him inexplicably angry. “Whatever.”
After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
Rory knew Denise wouldn’t let Becky get away with what happened tonight. Although Becky had succeeded in embarrassing her tonight, Denise would definitely come up with other ways to get her in trouble.
If it weren’t for the fact that Becky was his ex-wife, he wouldn’t have gotten himself involved in these trivial things at all.
But Becky was ungrateful. Such being the case, he decided to wait for her to come and beg for mercy.
