Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Chapter 101

By the time Becky got home from the supermarket, the trending topics about Rory and Babette on Twitter had completely disappeared. Nothing popped up when she tried searching the keyword “Rory.”

Needless to say, Rory had likely asked someone to remove anything related to him from the list of trending topics.

Jessie suggested she ask Payne to keep looking for gossip influencers to post about it again, but Becky refused.

Sometimes, things were more suspicious when people tried to hide the truth rather than to explain it.

Jessie was confused. “Why not?”

Becky explained, “He’s hiding in plain sight. It makes him look guiltier, don’t you think?” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Hearing this, Jessie was stunned for a while. By the time she came to her senses, she couldn’t help but shake her head in awe. “Damn, Becky. You’re a fucking genius!”

Becky smiled. “Really?”

Wasn’t Jessie too slow? Of course, Becky didn’t say that out loud.

Becky was right. Although Rory had removed himself from the trending topics, his move only served to make him look guiltier.

Although no one could find out anything about Rory and Babette online, people from the upper class of Courtbush still talked about it.

Aiken had been Rory’s closest friend for over twenty years. When he heard those bad comments about Rory, he tried to defend his friend.

But people who disagreed with him asked, “Did Rory and Babette have a relationship or not?”

Aiken didn’t know how to answer this question. All of Rory’s best friends knew that Rory did date Babette back in college, even though the relationship only lasted two months. If someone attempted to investigate, it wouldn’t take long for them to find out.

Aiken was speechless. He, too, was confused about Rory’s actions last night.

He was in no mood to party and flirt with ladies. He grabbed his car keys and walked out.

His sports car zipped through town and didn’t stop until it reached a villa.

As soon as Aiken got out of the car, he rang the doorbell. This villa was bought the year Rory graduated from college. The Casper family had no idea that this villa existed, but Rory’s best friends did.

Such explosive news had been released early that morning, and Aiken was pretty sure that Elmore was enraged. Aiken knew that Rory was probably in a bad mood, too.

Rory tended to retreat to this villa whenever he was in a bad mood. On his way here, Aiken tried calling Rory several times, but the latter didn’t answer, which confirmed that he was in a bad mood.

The doorbell rang again and again. Finally, Rory opened his eyes, picked up the remote, and checked the surveillance monitor. When he saw Aiken’s face on the screen, his mood worsened.

But it was clear that Aiken wasn’t going to stop ringing the doorbell until Rory opened the door.

Rubbing his temples, Rory headed downstairs.

“You have too much time on your hands.”

Aiken clicked his tongue. “I knew you’d be in a bad mood, so I came to check on you.”

Rory sneered coldly. “So are you expecting a thank you?”

Aiken rolled his eyes at the sarcasm but followed Rory into the villa. “Are you and Babette together again?”

Before Aiken could remind Rory that Babette was his sister-in-law, he met Rory’s intense gaze and shut up.

Aiken awkwardly scratched his head and changed the topic. “So why were you at Becky’s apartment building last night?”
