Chapter 164


    Becky was rather angry after she met Rory at noon. It wasn’t only anger that she felt; she was also


    profoundly depressed. At that point, she was on the verge of tears in front of Rory.


    But as Becky listened to Jessie scold Rory, she was no longer that angry.


    Jessie’s disdain for Rory was unwavering. Now that such a thing happened, she would undoubtedly


    chastise him to express her anger.


    Aiken’s stupid question made Jessie even more irritated. She wished she could hit him. “Calling


    Aiken an idiot is an understatement.”


    Becky found Jessie rather funny. “Forget about it. It doesn’t matter anymore.”


    “It doesn’t matter anymore?” A snort left Jessie’s lips. “Now, listen up, Becky. It will always matter! I


    can’t stand the thought of Rory hurting you like this. He overstepped his bounds. In due time, I will


    get revenge for you.”


    Becky understood that Jessie was simply being dramatic. If Jessie was standing before Rory, she


    would be too scared to speak.


    Becky chuckled. “In that case, you can look for a chance without any rush. To unwind, I’m going to


    run a hot bath right now.”


    Jessie was surprised. “You still haven’tpletely shaken off that cold. No, you shouldn’t do it.”


    After giving it some thinking, Becky ultimately agreed. “It makes sense. I have to go. Bye, Jessie.”


    “Good night!”


    “Good night!”


    Jessie remained furious when the call ended.

    Aiken was to me. Becky’s dissatisfaction could have been avoided had he not posed such a


    stupid question.


    Aiken, on the other hand, drove to Rory’s ce. Rory abruptly ended the call while he was telling


    him something about Royi.


    After giving it some consideration, Aiken decided toe to meet Rory to get to the bottom of


    things.


    It was no surprise that Aiken downloaded Royi’sic book and intended topare it to the


    artwork Rory had.


    He must prove he was right. Evidence existed to support that.


    Aiken proceeded to knock on Rory’s door after exiting the elevator. Rory, who had a stern


    expression, stepped up to the door after hearing the knock.


    “Have you been too idle recently?”


    When Aiken heard this, he was pissed off. “I wouldn’t havee here if you hadn’t hung up my


    phone.”


    Rory let out a scoff. “What is the issue?”


    Aiken surveyed the space and tried to enter, but it seemed that Rory had no ns to let him do so.


    “Damn! Simply let me in.”


    “Sorry, but you are not wee here,” Rory remarked as he gave him a cold stare.


    “What?”


    Aiken was pissed off, but he tried his best to stay calm.


    Then, Aiken showed Rory the image of theic book hero on the phone that he had just pulled


    out of his pocket. “Look, I mentioned theic book, and here is it. Isn’t it quite simr to the one


    Becky drew?”


    Rory bowed his head and cast a quick glimpse at Aiken’s phone. He scowled as he saw theic


    book hero’s face.


    However, he quickly returned to normal. “I don’t think so.”


    Rory then turned around and returned to his apartment after finishing his sentence.


    “Hey, double-check it.”


    Aiken was hit on the nose by the wooden door before he could end his sentence.


    “Damn! Rory! Are you even a human or not?”


    Aiken banged on the door a couple more times, but Rory ignored him as if he couldn’t hear


    anything.


    Aiken kicked the door while letting out an annoyingugh. “Rory, you’re a jerk!”


    But his curse was equally ineffective. Simply put, the guy inside didn’t open the door.


    Aiken was forced to turn back and walk away.


    He didn’t even get in!


    Rory was being too much.
