Chapter 89


    To Becky’s astonishment, Denise apologized. It was unlike her.


    Denise first apologized to Becky on Line Moments. After all, she had falsely used Becky of being


    Stevie’s mistress, posting pictures on Line Moments.


    Denise’s apology shocked the men and women of Courtbush’s upper ss.


    Becky belonged to the Ramos family, the richest in Bluepond. The family was not only known locally


    but also one of the ten richest families in the country.


    Becky was Stevie’s daughter.


    When she married Rory, she took him for who he was and not for what he could offer her. He was


    no match for Becky, in fact. But no one knew about this until now.


    The upper ss was very small, and there were only a few at the top of the social pyramid.


    Everyone in the circle knew that the Ramos family was not only rich but also powerful. Besides, the


    family of Becky’s mother wasn’t inferior to the Ramos family.


    Stevie wasn’t always wealthy. He married Vivien while he was still building hispany. She was


    from the Palmer family and was way out of his league. However, he soon grew in wealth and power,


    but the wealth and power of the Palmer family still made Vivien his match, if not more.


    The news that Becky was the daughter of Stevie, the richest man in Bluepond, spread like wild fire.


    Denise wasn’t surprised that her and her brother’s friends reacted the most. For she had given them


    the impression that Becky was not worthy of her brother, Rory.


    When Rory married Becky, everyone in Courtbush looked down on her. They considered her not


    good enough for Rory.


    The divorce of Becky and Rory still didn’t change people’s impressions of her. Even when there was


    a rumor that Rory might be having a love affair with Babette, Becky was still theughing stock.


    So, it wasn’t surprising that the news about who her father was left them dumbfounded.


    Aiken was not very surprised when he stumbled upon Denise’s post on Line Moments. He thought


    she was ying truth or dare. He took a screenshot of the post and sent it to her, wanting to hear


    from the horse’s mouth.


    Normally, Denise would have denied the authenticity of the news, casually waving it off as a joke.


    But she hadn’t. This left Aiken more confused.


    As Aiken contemted Denise’s message, he was distracted by a knock on his door. Without


    Aiken’s permission, the door was pushed open, revealing Rory and Keenan.


    When Aiken saw them, he didn’t mind the interruption. Without hesitating, he demanded an


    exnation from Rory. “What is your sister up to? She just apologized to Becky and Stevie on Line


    moments. Listen to hertest update. ‘It’s my fault Becky is subjected to so much mockery. She is


    not Stevie’s mistress, but his daughter.’ Tell me this is one of her random pranks.”


    Rory was clearly irritated. He wasn’t here to talk about the mess he was already involved in. “Shut


    up,” he barked at Aiken. “I don’t want to talk about it.”


    Aiken shuddered at Rory’s angry voice. His heart skipped a beat because only a real situation could


    make Rory react this way. “So, it is true then,” he mumbled.


    “Yes.” Keenan cast a nce at Rory. “Otherwise, Rory wouldn’t be this mad.”

    “Damn it!” Aiken hit the table very hard. “Becky isn’t a good-for-nothing after all. She is a very rich


    and powerfuldy. I’m not surprised you insisted on marrying her. You must have known that she is


    a Ramos.”


    Hearing Aiken’s words, Rory felt his heart sting. “I didn’t know she was Stevie’s daughter,” he said


    as he took a sip of his wine.


    Aiken bit his lip, stopping himself from praising Rory as a wise guy who went for the best.


    He now understood howplex the situation was and this rendered him speechless. His face


    went pink.
