Chapter 186


    Lowell suddenly realized what Rory was getting at and immediately recited, “How ridiculous that


    Becky loved you for more than ten years! She must be crazy! She must be crazy to have loved you!


    Did she do anything wrong? Since junior high school, she…”


    Lowell paused before adding, “That’s what Miss Walker said.”


    Jessie had said a lot, but most of those words had been to scold Rory. Lowell had omitted that part


    after having been at the receiving end of Rory’s warning re.


    He realized why Rory asked him to repeat what Jessie had said.


    Jessie’s words had shocked Lowell, too. ording to what he knew, Becky and Rory had met on a


    night five years ago. Rory had done a thorough investigation. Becky hadn’t been the one to set the


    trap for Rory, and she hadn’t been waiting for Rory either.

    They obviously didn’t know each other before that night.


    But Jessie had said that Becky had loved Rory for more than ten years.


    Rory was shocked to hear it, and so was Lowell.


    Jessie hadn’t exined herself after having told him something so important.


    Lowell had noticed that Rory and Becky didn’t have any propermunication after their divorce.


    Maybe all Rory wanted to know was if Becky had loved him for so long.


    After all, even if a person could live a hundred years, ten years were a huge part of their life to


    discount easily.


    Becky was only twenty-seven years old. If she had loved Rory for so long, she had devoted half her


    life to Rory.


    This was a shocking fact, bordering on unbelievable.


    Rory’s expression shifted at Lowell’s words.


    He had thought that the story in theic book had been especially changed to cater to the market.


    He knew that Becky loved him, but he hadn’t expected her to have loved him for so long.


    But here was Becky’s friend, telling him about Becky’s longstanding love for him.


    Rory looked at Lowell in disbelief but soon came to himself and said, “Don’t talk to anyone about


    what Jessie just said. If I hear any discussion about what happened today…”


    Rory’s expression was stormy. Lowell knew what Rory meant even before Rory could finish his


    words since he had worked for Rory for years together.


    “Okay, Mr. Casper.”


    “Get out!”


    Lowell hesitated, looking at Rory, intending to ask if he was still going to get his year-end bonus, but


    he didn’t dare mention it. He noticed that Rory was furious, so he walked out of the office.


    The door closed, leaving Rory standing alone in his office.


    The office was a mess, the documents that Jessie had thrown everywhere in her anger still littered


    on the floor.


    Rory’s head was a lot messier than the office was.


    He opened the drawer, took out a cigarette, and lit it.


    How was it even possible that Becky had loved him for more than ten years?


    Jessie must have exaggerated the number.


    Rory was relieved at this thought.


    He stubbed the cigarette in the ashtray before calling Lowell. “Ask someone to clean the office.”


    After that, Rory hung up.


    He picked his coat up and walked out of the office.
