Chapter 86


    Bang!


    As soon as Becky and her family left, Elmore smashed a porcin cup on the floor.


    The antique cup was shattered into pieces, and Denise subconsciously shrank back.


    “What the fuck is going on? Why is Becky suddenly Stevie’s daughter?”


    Denise pursed her lips and whined, “Who knows? Didn’t Rory say that she was just an ordinary


    girl?”


    “You, shut up! I’ll deal with youter!”


    Elmore had been a respectable man. In all his eighty years on this earth, this was the first time that


    he felt so humiliated. He had not a shred of dignity left.


    After scolding Denise, Elmore red at Rory and demanded, “She didn’t tell you that she’s Stevie


    Ramos’s daughter?”


    Rory shook his head. “No.”


    Then he turned to look at his sister and said, “Mr. Ramos asked you to apologize. You should think


    about how to apologize.”


    Denise’s face turned pale.


    Was she really going to apologize in public?


    “Well, there’s something I have to deal with at work. Sorry I can’t have dinner with you.”


    With that, Rory turned around and left.


    Elmore watched him go in silence. Thinking about what Stevie had said, he raised his walking stick


    and whacked the sofa Denise was sitting on, jolting her. “Prepare your public apology now! Or else


    you’ll be grounded until you fix this!”


    This was the second time that Denise had seen Elmore get so angry. The first time was when the


    video and recordings of Babette’s schemes were posted on the Inte after Becky and Rory’s


    divorce.


    Denise thought that Elmore was going to hit her with his walking stick just now, so she didn’t dare to


    protest and dashed upstairs before she could get scolded any further.


    Just then, the butler announced, “Mr. Casper, dinner is ready.”


    Hearing this, Denise, who was running up the stairs, couldn’t help but pause. As if on cue, her


    stomach grumbled, and she looked pitifully at her mother at the foot of the stairs.


    Seeing her daughter’s pleading eyes, Jenifer had no choice but to try to calm Elmore down. “Why


    don’t we have dinner first? Denise can make her apologyter.”


    “Dinner? Seriously? You still have an appetite after what just happened?” Elmore snorted and


    stormed upstairs in a fit of rage.


    Meanwhile, Rory had gotten into his car and was driving out of the vi. The lights changed to red.


    He stopped his car and loosened his tie, thinking about Elmore’s words.

    Did Becky ever tell him that she was Stevie’s daughter?


    No! Never!


    All of a sudden, Rory felt that Becky had yed him like a fool.


    He thought about the day he married Becky and the words he had said to warn her. A fire ignited


    inside him and seemed to engulf his body, mind, and soul in mes.


    What did he say that day?


    “Becky, just be a good wife and my family will treat you well. As for something else, don’t ever think


    about it.”


    Now that he thought about it, he felt as though Becky had pped him in the face.


    That damned woman!


    Just then, the lights turned green, but Rory’s car remained motionless.


    It wasn’t until the car behind him honked impatiently that he snapped out of his trance.


    With a sullen expression, he mmed his foot on the gas.
