Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 55

Becky smiled in approval. “You’re a fast learner, Mr. Stanley.”

Devin shot Becky a charming smile and winked. “I learned from my future girlfriend.”

Devin’s dazzling smile could light up a room, instantly captivating anyone who saw him.

Becky was a cool and confident woman, but seeing Devin’s smile made her slightly flustered.

To hide her blush, Becky turned her face away from the handsome man.

The auctioneer announced the final bids. The snuff bottle, which was worth less than 3 million, was sold at 4 million. The painting, which was worth less than five million, ended up being sold at 7.5 million. Both of which were won by Rory.

Rory had to be out of his mind tonight. Even Aiken knew that the painting wasn’t worth that much, but he refrained himself from making any more comments when he saw Rory’s annoyed expression.

When the auction was over, they four crossed paths at the staircase of the auditorium.

Aiken greeted them politely. “Good evening, Becky.”

“Hello, Mr. Evans,” Becky replied with a faint smile.

Without sparing any other niceties, Becky nodded and left with Devin.

Rory watched them leave. Seeing them together made him feel inexplicably annoyed, so he stormed out of the hall.

Becky got inside the Cayenne and waited for Devin to start the car. To her surprise, Devin didn’t move and just looked at her from the driver’s seat.

Confused, Becky looked back at him questioningly. Devin smiled and commented, “Not bad.”

“Whatever do you mean?”

Devin didn’t explain, but proceeded to start the car. “You hungry?”

“Not really,” Becky answered nonchalantly.

Devin glanced at Becky and smiled, but he didn’t say anything more.

Half an hour later, Devin pulled to a stop in front of Becky’s apartment building.

Just as Becky unfastened her seat belt, she saw Devin holding out a gift box in front of her.

She raised her eyebrows, her curiosity piqued. “What’s this for?”

“Consider it a token of my appreciation.”

Becky didn’t accept it right away. “Is it a token or a gift?”
