Chapter 257 I'm Making Myself
Jenifer forced a smile on her face in an effort to look happy and polite.
"Let's eat then."
Becky didn’t say a word in response.
Instead, she swung into action and proceeded to dish out the food for Jenifer and herself.
Jenifer was speechless.
She just didn't know what to say.
There was total silence in the room, except for the sound of tableware clashing as the women ate.
Jenifer was not in a feasting mood, so she could only take a few bites.
Becky, however, had a robust appetite.She had ordered a variety of dishes and she was satisfied with how they were prepared.
When Jenifer stopped eating, she looked up and saw Becky enjoying her meal with relish.
Such a sight did not do anything to improve Jenifer's mood.
Rather, it worsened it.
Becky took her time to finish her food, and when she was done, she grabbed a napkin and cleaned her hands before leaning back to enjoy a few sips from her cup of tea.
When she put down the cup, she took the piece of jewelry on the table that Jenifer gave her and returned it to the owner.
"This is for your next daughter-in-law, not me."
As she said this, there was a slight smile on her face, but the coldness in her voice could not be missed.
Jenifer's face fell in disappointment.
"But Becky, you love Rory very much, don't you?"
"No.I loved him, but that was long ago" Becky said.
Jenifer opened her mouth to respond, but Becky was not interested in listening, and instead cut her off immediately.
"If your aim is to persuade me to get back together with Rory, I can assure you that it will be a waste of time.I made it clear that I want nothing more to do with Rory, and I don't go back on my word.The Casper family is too good enough for me, and so is your son, Rory.No ordinary person is fit to become your daughter-in-law."
Even though Jenifer was used to enduring scolding and humiliation, only Elmore dared to put her through such.
Becky had been very respectful to her when she was Rory's wife.
This was the first time she had talked to Jenifer in such a mocking tone.
"But why? Why are you doing this to yourself, Becky?"
Jenifer couldn't help but ask her.
"I'm doing nothing to myself except making myself happy," Becky retorted.
As far as she was concerned, she had done everything right and she had no reason to worry.
"I think I'd like to take my leave now," Becky said with a sneer as she got up to her feet.
