Chapter 94


    Aiken felt that it wasn’t his lucky day today. It had taken him a lot of effort to persuade Rory for a


    midnight snack in the newly opened restaurant. But he hadn’t expected Becky to be there too.


    What was worse, she was there with Devin, Rory’spetitor and the one who had announced that


    he would be pursuing Becky.


    Aiken regretted his choices once he realized what was happening. It would be better if they came


    here another day.


    To some degree, they weren’t Becky’s friends. An hour ago, Aiken had greeted Becky, but she had


    not reciprocated or replied.


    Aiken understood that Becky didn’t intend to interact with any of Rory’s friends. And such behavior


    was understandable.


    This time, Aiken behaved himself, standing to the side and looking straight ahead without saying a


    word.


    Anyway, he shouldn’t be the one to feel embarrassed.


    Becky took one nce at Rory before walking past him.


    She had just walked some distance when Rory suddenly burst out, “Do you think that what you are


    doing will make me jealous?”


    Becky stopped at his words and turned to face him. She looked at him and asked with a smile, “Are


    you talking to me?”


    Her smile was devoid of happiness and didn’t reach her eyes.


    Rory felt ufortable under Becky’s gaze. She had never looked at him like this or spoken such


    unpleasant words to him.


    Rory frowned, his expression darkening instantly. “Don’t y hard to get. Do you think I’m going to


    buy it?”

    Aiken sucked in a sharp breath at this. Rory had gone too far this time.


    Becky looked at him, shocked, before bursting into angryughter. “You think I’m ying hard to


    get? I wonder what gave you the impression that I still love you. What makes you so confident?”


    Before Rory could answer, Becky continued, “If you don’t remember, let me remind you that we are


    divorced. I’m not a recycle bin and I won’t ept trash like you.”


    Then, she looked at Aiken and added, “If you still don’t understand what I’m saying, just ask Aiken.


    I’m sure he will exin it to you.”


    She then turned around and left.


    Aiken took a deep breath before looking at Rory and saying, “Rory, Becky just called you trash.”


    He was shocked. This was the first time he had seen someone who dared tosh out at Rory like


    that.


    Aiken’s words annoyed Rory even more and his face darkened into a storm.


    Keenan’s eyebrows shot up as he watched Devin chase after Becky. He turned to look at Rory and


    said, “You might be ttering yourself.”


    Rory felt as if Becky had pped him. He stood still, feeling utterly lost.


    To Keenan’sments, Aiken added, “I think Becky is doing a good job in avoiding any interaction


    with you after your divorce. She doesn’t even greet us anymore. I agree with Keenan. You are


    ttering yourself.”


    Aiken’s gloating tone annoyed Rory even more. He red at him and asked, “Are you Becky’s


    friend or mine?”


    Aiken merely smiled and said, “I’m just telling the truth.”


    “Then go be her friend from now on!”


    Aiken raised his eyebrows and said, “No problem. But the point is that they don’t like interacting with


    me.”


    Rory’s anger seemed to erupt off the top of his head. “Go to hell!”
