“I’m not sure yet,” Becky said, glancing at Stevie.
How could Stevie not understand? He and Becky had met Denise and Babette last night, and now rumor had it that he was Becky’s sugar daddy. He had been in the business for so many years that he had seen these dirty tricks already. “They’ve gone too far!”
Afraid that he would get angry, Becky hurried to mollify him. “Dad, please don’t get angry. I’ll have someone look into it.”
“Yes! Find out as soon as possible! Your mother is right! The people who did this must have no proper upbringing. I wonder how their parents educated them!”
Stevie had wanted to settle accounts with the Casper family a long time ago, but Becky had stopped him. He now had the chance and no matter what Becky said, he wouldn’t let this go.
Becky knew that Stevie was concerned about her. Denise’s actions this time would prove that her intentions were bad and that she was stupid. She had to get even with Denise.
“I will. I’ll ask my secretary to look into it,” Becky said, pouring a cup of tea for Stevie.
Stevie was furious. Afraid that he would explode, Becky tried to calm him down as best as she could.
Stevie did calm down after a while and said, “If Denise did it, you can’t stop me and your mother from teaching her a lesson this time.”
Becky forced a smile as she said, “I won’t. I mean it.”
Stevie nodded, satisfied.
He had been holding back his anger for a long time now. If Denise had really done it, he would not let her go so easily this time.
