Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Chapter 254

Chapter 254 He Fell In Love With Her

The drunkard cried out in pain as his wrist was squeezed mercilessly by Rory.

Unfortunately, there was no one to save him.

The alcohol began to disappear from his head and he became sober enough to beg for mercy.

Rory finally had mercy on him and let go of his hand.

And without looking back, he scurried away like a scared rat while holding his hurt wrist.

Becky and Rory were now standing alone in the long corridor.

Those messages on her old phone had given Rory a good insight into the amount of love and affection Becky felt for him over the years.

It was just immeasurable.

Now that he was standing face to face with her for the first time since he read those messages, his feelings were just indescribable.

At first, he wanted to tell her all about the phone, but he changed his mind.

Instead, he decided to focus on the current situation.He looked at her face, searching for signs of terror or anything of the sort.

"Did that scare you? I hope he didn't hurt you."

Becky shook her head.

"No.And thank you."

Even though she gave her thanks with a smile on her face, the look in her eyes was very different.There was no sign of attraction in there.

"I'm sorry"

Rory said suddenly.He was apologizing yet again.

Becky was surprised, but she took it that he was probably feeling sorry for her getting harassed by a drunk.

"It's nothing.I have to go now.My secretary is waiting for me at the gate."

With that, Becky turned around and walked away.Rory stood there and looked at her retreating figure.

All the gloominess and sadness in his heart for the past few days were no longer there.He had no choice but to admit to himself that he was beginning to fall in love with Becky.

It was a strange feeling, but he could not resist it and neither did he want to.

Clearly, Aiken had been perfectly correct.

When Becky finally reached the gate of the restaurant, Talia was already waiting beside the car.

Seeing Becky come out, Talia breathed an obvious sigh of relief and quickly hurried to open the door for her boss.

Becky nodded her thanks and got into the car.

Soon, the driver started the car and slowly pulled out onto the road.

Becky leaned back and looked through the window at the other cars speeding past them on the road.

When she remembered what had just happened with the drunkard, she couldn't help but sigh.

This was probably the first time since they divorced that she had seen Rory in a manner that pleased her.He seemed genuinely nice. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The change in his behavior was surprising.

If she hadn't seen it herself, she would not have believed it.

Twenty minutes later, the car slowed down to a halt.

"Miss Ramos, we are here,"

Talia reminded Becky with a tap on her shoulder.

Becky, whose eyes had been closed, slowly opened them and looked outside.

The wine she drank earlier was beginning to have its effect on her, making her a bit sleepy.

But she was not so affected that she couldn't find her bearings.

After a quick shake of head to clear her mind, she was able to look outside and see that she was now back home.

"Good night then," she said to Talia as she reached for the door.

Despite the few mishaps, the night had been very productive for Becky.She was glad that she was able to finalize the agreement with their new partner on their latest project.

Becky got out of the car and made her way to the apartment building.

There, she saw Devin.

Since he left Becky's apartment one early morning sometime in the last week, she had not set eyes on Devin.

"Did you go out for drinks?" he asked when she came up to him.

His twinkling eyes had probably caught some sign of it on her face and maybe he could even perceive the smell of wine on her.

"Yes, I did.So, what's the matter?"Becky asked.

Devin broke into a smile.

"So, I can't come see you when I'm free?"

Becky felt she didn't have time for this.She desperately wanted to rest.

"Okay then.You've seen me now, haven't you?"

"Sure."

His eyes were on her and Devin was looking fondly at her.Becky couldn't stand it anymore.His gaze made her a bit uncomfortable, so she looked away immediately.

"Good night then."

"Good night," Devin responded.

But he didn't leave.

Instead, he stood there, staring at her.

Becky used her card and the door slid open.

But something told her to look back and she did.

To her surprise, she saw Devin still standing there looking at her.

The lights in the building shone out and fell on his face, making him look quite soft and tender.

The wound on the corner of his mouth seemed to have healed because there was no sign of it anymore.But those twinkling eyes of his remained the same.

Suddenly, it occurred to Becky that she was noticing too much of him.

What the hell was taking over her? Her heart was beating faster and she was beginning to have this unexplainable feeling.
